PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a collision detection device which enables reduction of the number of components to simplify the structure.SOLUTION: A collision detection device is mounted on a vehicle 1 including a bumper cover 2 fixed to a vehicle body 100 or a vehicle body component 101 connected to the vehicle body 100 by bolts 14. The collision detection device includes: deformation detection parts 20 capable of detecting deformation of the bumper cover 2; and a signal processing part 30 which determines that objects 50, 62 collide with the bumper cover 2 on the basis of signals input from the deformation detection parts 20. Each deformation detection part 20 is attached in a state where the bolt 14 for fixing the bumper cover 2 to the vehicle body 100 or the vehicle body component 101 connected to the vehicle body 100 is inserted into the deformation detection part 20.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 31 【課題】部品点数を少なくし、構成を簡素にすることの可能な衝突検知装置を提供する。【解決手段】衝突検知装置は、車体１００または車体１００に接続される車体部品１０１に対しボルト１４により固定されるバンパカバー２を備えた車両１に搭載される。この衝突検知装置は、バンパカバー２の変形を検知可能な変形検知部２０と、その変形検知部２０から入力される信号に基づきバンパカバー２に物体５０、６２が衝突したことを判定する信号処理部３０とを備える。変形検知部２０は、バンパカバー２と車体１００または車体１００に接続される車体部品１０１とを固定するためのボルト１４に挿通された状態で取り付けられる。【選択図】図３１
