Vehicle seat

A device for testing vehicle occupant restraint systems for a side impact, with a target carriage ( ) which is provided with a structure ( ) in which there are mounted a seat ( ) for a test dummy ( ), an imitation ( ) of the lower region of a vehicle side structure and the side impact restraint system ( ) to be tested, and with an impact carriage ( ) which is provided with a pushing surface ( ) associated with the imitation ( ) of the lower region of the vehicle side structure, the impact carriage ( ) and the target carriage ( ) being movable relative to each other such that an impact of the pushing surface ( ) and the imitation ( ) of the lower region of the vehicle side structure onto each other can be brought about at a predetermined speed, is characterized in that the structure ( ) is additionally provided with at least one imitation ( ) of the upper region of a vehicle side structure and that the impact carriage ( ) is provided with an upper pushing surface ( ) arranged above the lower pushing surface ( ).

Device for carrying out side impact tests on motor vehicle passenger restraint systems

A force limiter for a safety belt system is provided, which allows relative rotation-between a shaft and an anchoring part in a first direction when a predetermined torque acts between the shaft and the anchoring part. The force limiter comprises at least one deformable element which, in an initial condition thereof, extends from the anchoring part to the shaft and is at least in part trained about the shaft in a second direction opposite to the first direction.
