Child Protection in Front and Side Impacts - Current and Future Requirements

课程介绍

For the transport and the protection of children in cars, child protection systems have been on the market since the 70ies. It was, however, only after the introduction of the European test regulation UN Regulation No. 44 in 1980, that their quality and effectiveness have reached a minimum standard that was acceptable at that time. Further developments of the legal regulations along with additional tests of different European consumer protection organizations - e.g. the German Stiftung Warentest, ICRT (International Consumer Research and Testing; governing body of the European product testers), Oeko Test - and also the motor press (auto motor und sport, ADAC, Auto Bild, OEAMTC) finally led to a significant decrease in the number of accident victims among children. Unfortunately the applied test setups and rating procedures in the sled tests vary greatly and partly lead to significantly diverging results, which can cause misunderstandings among consumers, manufacturers and developers. Right from the start Euro NCAP has also tested child protection systems in full-size-front and side-impact tests and has introduced a separate test and assessment protocol for the evaluation of the protective effect of Child Restraint Systems (CRS). However, hereby only CRS recommended by the automotive OEMs are used in the tests. The endeavours for research and harmonization of the New Programme for the Assessment of universal Child Seats (NPACS), founded in 2002, can be seen as the latest development on an European level. Members of NPACS are ICRT, ADAC and several European governments. In an initial phase, the test procedures of the ADAC and ICRT are to be harmonised. Euro NCAP has revised it?s child occupant assessment. Since 2013 Q dummies have been used in the dynamic assessment. In addition a CRS installation test was introduced. A significant change was the consideration of older children (Q6 and Q10) than in the previous protocol from 2015 onwards. This enables Euro NCAP to better assess the performance of the vehicle?s restraint systems.
