CRS의 부착방식에 따른 어린이 탑승자 안전도 비교

Abstract

These days, automobile industry pays considerable attention to child occupant safety. As the US adopted requirements for universal and uniform anchor systems for child restraints, manufacturers for child seats put an enormous effort to improve the protective properties of Child Restraint System (CRS). Various standards have been studied and announced by different countries. The anchorage system is the most important in the CRS and the rules of universal anchor are to provide devices which are independent of safety belts. A new concept called International Standard Organization Fixture (ISOFIX) has been announced. It suggests some designs for the CRS. In this study, the suggested designs are evaluated with domestic products. Tests are performed and the results are incorporated into a finite element modeling process. As the finite element model is established, various numerical tests are conducted and the numerical results are discussed. A commercial software system is utilized for the nonlinear finite element analysis.
