CRS | Session 38 | 16 Apr 2013

4.5.1. Anchorage positions
Current NPACS lower anchorages induce interference problems (load cell and belt plate) in lateral configuration with intruding door.

Presentation from F. RENAUDIN of anchorages positions (CRS-38-07).

The recommendation of the group is to investigate cutting of the door to prevent these interactions rather than modifying anchorages positions. Action: CLEPA with TRL collaboration.

4.5.2. Strap definition
Strap definition : use the same definition as R44

First the anchorages location needs to be defined. Then the belt length could be defined using the R16 gabarit.

Retractor: A more clear definition of the feature is needed.

4.5.3. Installation on test bench
Take the installation method from the R44 regulation and adapt it for iSize reg. Action: Chairman + Secretary with advice of TSG.

Presentation of the review of seatbelt anchorage and dimensions of test bench seat cushion form JASIC (CRS-38-08).

Presentation of accident case (CRS-38-09) by Philippe LESIRE: Soft vehicles with low impact speed (45kmh vs 45 km/h with 30° angle => this accident was not more severe than the R44 level). After this accident, adults were OK, but the 28 month child seated in a booster shield died. The car seat was chosen by parents because it is a good one according to rating. The child fatal injuries occur on head and abdominal area. The shield restrain explain the fatal injury mechanism on the abdomen.
