CURRENT

J114_201306

This SAE Recommended Practice describes the performance requirements for abrasion resistance of webbing when used in adjustment hardware normally used to adjust the length of seat belt assemblies such as those described in SAE J140. These requirements are applicable to tests conducted according to the procedure described in SAE J339. Although adjustment hardware is normally the primary source of webbing abrasion in a seat belt assembly, consideration should be given to other areas of normal webbing contact in the restraint system that may provide a more severe condition of webbing abrasion.

CURRENT

J2287_201209

This SAE Recommended Practice defines minimum performance standards, qualification requirements, and minimum documentation requirements for Integrated Lap and Shoulder Restraint (to) equipped Seats (IL&SRTS). The goal is to achieve comfort, durability, and occupant protection under expected and foreseeable normal operation loads. The document attempts to define test and evaluation criteria to demonstrate performance at peak operational loads, while attempting to maintain the seat’s ability to meet loads set forth in FMVSS 207, 210, and ECE 14, 16, and 17. This document also provides guidance for design by enumerating certain design goals to enhance comfort, serviceability, and safety. Guidance for test procedures, measurements, equipment, and interpretation of results may be presented to promote uniform techniques and to achieve acceptable data.

DYNAMIC TEST PROCEDURE - TYPE 1 AND TYPE 2 SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES

HISTORICAL

J117_197001

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes a dynamic test procedure for evaluating Type 1 lap belt assemblies for pelvic restraints and Type 2 assemblies for combination pelvic and upper torso restraints, as defined in SAE J4c. Uniform test requirements, test procedures, a seat belt assembly loading device, and data recording requirements are specified. The intent of the recommended practice is to provide an acceptance procedure employing a dynamic test method for determining the ability of seat belt assemblies to meet minimal requirements for restraining a seat belt assembly loading device. A simple dynamic test is described which will yield repeatable and comparable results while simulating the loading condition a seat belt assembly is subjected to in a frontal accident. The impact conditions generate belt loads representative of those obtained in a motor vehicle striking a rigid barrier head on at 30 mph as stated in SAE J850.
