UPDATE ON LATERAL IMPACT TEST PROCEDURE FOR CHILD RESTRAINTSYSTEMS11-0291

摘要

After years of research and discussion ISO published a side impact test procedure for CRS as Technical Specification ISO/TS 29062:2009. At the same time of the finalisation of the technical specification, the GRSP Informal Group on CRS decided to establish a more simple approach than specified in ISO/TS 29062:2009 and asked ISO for support. As a response to this request ISO prepared the Publicly Available Specification ISO/PAS 13396:2009 which summarises the most important input data for the development of a side impact test procedure. That represented a significant input to the Informal Working Group on CRS to develop their own test procedure. The new GRSP lateral impact test procedure is currently under validation. It is expected that the validation will be completed by spring 2011. The new test procedure will become mandatory as part of the planned new regulation for the homologation of CRS.
