Performance Requirements for an Inflatable Seatbelt Assembly 1999-01-3233
Keeping in view the current on-going developments in the field of automobile restraint systems, the advent of additional regulatory requirements for occupant protection has driven the development of a new generation of inflatable seat belt restraint system (IRS). Such a device has been developed for vehicle and integrated structural seat mounted applications. During the development of the IRS it became evident that a minimum performance specification for the inflatable assembly portion of the system was in order, such that the overall effectiveness could be measured prior to its introduction into the market place.
