Its purpose is to describe crash pulse characteristics and establish recommended test procedures that will standardize restraint system and equipment mounting testing for ambulances. Descriptions of the test set-up, test instrumentation, photographic/video coverage, and the test fix

TEST DUMMIES For the dynamic tests described in the following sections, restraint systems should be evaluated with the aid of a test dummy. The test du
11、mmy should be of a type that will closely represent the size, weight, and articulation characteristics of a 50th percentile male in a seated position. Examples of such a test dummy include the Hybrid-III and Euro SID2 with rib extensions 50th percentile male anthropomorphic test devices (ATD). The d
12、ummy should be selected appropriately based on the orientation of the seat relative to the direction of travel and the purpose of the test. The physical characteristics ofthese ATDs are described in 49 CFR 572 subparts E and U. Applicable measurement capabilities of the Hybrid-III 50th percentile ma
13、le test dummy are described in 49 CFR 571.208 and applicable measurement capabilities of the Euro SID2-re 50thpercentile male test dummy are described in 49 CFR 571.214.Test dummies of other sizes (i.e., 95th-percentile male, 5th-percentile female, etc.) may be used to evaluate restraint system perf
14、ormance for various occupant sizes. 4. DYNAMIC SLED TESTS For the restraint system tests, all interior cab components that are potential occupant contact surfaces (cabinets, countertops, patient cots, etc.) shall be installed on the test sled. Proper geometry relative to the components being tested
15、should be maintained. Wherever practicable, actual production components should be used. If not, components with performance characteristics near those expected for production should be used. Seat tethers should be set according to the manufacturers specifications. The primary purpose of this test i
16、s to evaluate restraint system performance, occupant excursion, equipment mounting integrity, and occupant interaction with interior components when subjected to a representative real-world frontal crash pulse. 4.1 Test Fixture For the frontal impact tests, a sled fixture mounted on a uni-directiona
17、l tracking system is required. Typical sled fixture systems are of the deceleration and acceleration types. For the deceleration system, the sled fixture is accelerated to a desired speed and then decelerated through the programmed pulse via energy-absorbing methods (i.e., honeycomb, extruded steel
18、rods, etc.). For the acceleration system, the programmed pulse is applied as a rearward acceleration to the sled fixture, which is initially at rest. 4.2 Frontal Impact Sled Pulse Specification For frontal impact tests, a sled deceleration pulse is applied parallel to the vehicle longitudinal axis.
19、The pulse profile must fall within the corridor delineated by the plots in Figure 1 and the values in Table 1. Total velocity change during the test shall be 31 mph 1 mph.

21、mmy Positioning Test dummy positioning procedures for this testing should be consistent with the positioning procedures outlined in 49 CFR 571.208 and 49 CFR 571.214, where practicable. 5. INSTRUMENTATION To record the deceleration pulse accelerometers may be mounted to the sled fixture. Dummy instr
22、umentation may include any of the measurements mentioned in Section 3. Dynamic seat belt loads may be recorded by installing webbing load transducers on the seat belts. All measurements should be recorded and filtered according to the most recent version of SAE J211-1 and SAE J211-2. 6. PHOTOGRAPHIC
23、 INSTRUMENTATION High-speed cameras should be used to document the dynamic tests. The field of view of these cameras should be large enough to document the entire range of motion of the test dummy and/or mounted equipment during the deceleration event. Wherever possible, off-board cameras should be
24、used to allow for the use of longer focal-length lenses and, therefore, less lens distortion error when performing analysis of the high-speed footage.If complete coverage of occupant kinematics is not possible with off-board cameras only, the use of on-board cameras will be required. Each high-speed
25、 camera should operate at a frame rate sufficient to facilitate motion analysis of the film. A minimum frame rate of 500 frames per second is recommended. Sufficient reference targets, both stationary and on the test sled/fixture and test dummy, should be provided. Provisions should be made for sync
26、hronizing electronic and photographic instrumentation. Wherever possible, the cameras should be mounted such that they are perpendicular to the axis of motion. 7.
