1、AEROSPACE STANDARDAS5276/1Issued 2000-11Performance Standard for Child RestraintSystems in Transport Category Airplanes1. SCOPE:This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) defines minimum performance standards and related qualification criteria for add-on child restraint systems (CRS) which provide protection

2、for small children in passenger seats of transport category airplanes. The AS is not intended to provide design criteria that could be met only by an aircraft-specific CRS. The goal of this standard is to achieve child-occupant protection by specifying a dynamic test method and evaluation criteria f

3、or the performance of CRS under emergency landing conditions.1.1 Purpose:The methods presented in this AS are designed to assure that CRS will provide adequate security and safety for their occupants. This will enable proper restraint of children in the aircraft environment. This AS defines a test p

4、rocedure, interpretation of the results, and pass/fail criteria.1.2 Applicability:This AS addresses the performance criteria for add-on type CRS when used in transport category airplane passenger seats, certificated under 14 CFR Part 25, which have lap belts as the only means of occupant restraint.

5、These criteria do not replace or supersede existing criteria for child restraint devices certified for compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213 (FMVSS-213), which is published in 49 CFR 571.213. This AS does not redefine or supersede applicable Federal Aviation Administration (F

6、AA) regulations for CRS allowed for use on airplanes.SAE Technical Standards Board Rules provide that: “This report is published by SAE to advance the state of technical and engineering sciences. The use of this report is entirely voluntary, and its applicability and suitability for any particular u

Mass, standing height, and deve

17、lopmental maturity (i.e., age) are important for proper CRS configuration and orientation. As children develop at different rates, combined application of these characteristics in selecting a CRS may be difficult. To assist in this process, Table 1 defines three stages of child development that have

18、 been established by the American Academy of Pediatrics, each with a single dominant characteristic underlined. Where an occupant falls between categories, the dominant characteristic is used to determine the proper CRS configuration and orientation.2.4 Classification of Child Restraints:Restraint s

19、ystems are classified by child category. Some CRS serve more than one child category. Table 2 defines the three classes of CRS for this AS.TABLE 1 - Definitions of Child CategoriesChild Category Mass, kg (lb) Height, cm (in) Age, moNewborn Birth to 5 (11) Birth to 65 (26) N/AInfant 5 - 10 (11 - 22)

21、of Child Occupant:The CRS and its integral restraints shall be designed to be compatible with accepted classification standards, as indicated in 2.3 and 2.4, for the protection of children under high dynamic loads.a. Any child with a mass of less than 5 kg (11 lb) is considered a “newborn” and shoul

22、d be restrained in an aft facing orientation by a CRS providing both upper and lower torso restraint. (Type I)b. Any child that has not attained his or her first birthday is considered an “infant” and should be restrained in an aft facing orientation by a CRS providing both upper and lower torso res

23、traint. (Type II)c. Any child that has a mass of greater than 5 kg (11 lb) and less than 10 kg (22 lb) is considered an “infant” and should be restrained in an aft facing orientation by a CRS providing both upper and lower torso restraint. (Type II)d. Any child that has attained his or her first bir

24、thday, with a mass greater than 10 kg (22 lb) and having a standing stature of less than 100 cm (40 in) in height is considered a “toddler” and should be seated in a forward facing CRS with both upper and lower torso restraint. (Type III)3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:All the paragraphs in this section are

25、 intended to ensure proper CRS performance within the aircraft environment. Test methods and pass/fail criteria are provided where appropriate.3.1 CRS Interface with Airplane Passenger Seat:The CRS shall comply with the recommendations of ARP4466.3.2 A CRS installed in an airplane passenger seat sha

29、 to the positions required for takeoff and landing without release of the lap belt securing the CRS to the passenger seat. The actions necessary to return these features to the positions required for takeoff and landing shall be possible by the parent/companion without the release of the parent/comp

30、anion restraints.3.2.4 A stowable CRS, having means to collapse or fold to a stowable configuration, shall have a visible means by which to verify that, when installed on an airplane passenger seat, the CRS is positively locked in the correct position for occupancy.3.2.5 Where a CRS is equipped with

31、 prongs that attach the CRS to a rigid bar anchorage system in automobiles, those prongs shall be retractable, in order to ensure proper positioning of the CRS in the airplane passenger seat and to avoid damage to the airplane seat.3.3 Fire Protection:Cushions, upholstery, and all other exposed mate

32、rials used in the CRS shall meet the fire protection provisions of 14 CFR 25.853(c).3.4 Dynamic Strength/Occupant Protection:The CRS shall be designed, and demonstrated by test, to meet the performance criteria and occupant protection criteria defined in Sections 4, 5, and 6 of this AS. 3.5 Turbulen

33、ce Protection:The CRS shall be designed to retain the occupant during turbulence; this capability shall be demonstrated by means of the inversion test specified in 49 CFR 571.213 S8.2.4. PERFORMANCE TEST SPECIFICATIONS:The dynamic test described in this section is used to evaluate the performance of

34、 the CRS in a horizontal impact where the force is applied against the longitudinal axis of a forward facing airplane passenger seat that holds the CRS. The structural adequacy of the CRS, the effectiveness of the CRS attachments, and the adequacy of restraint of the child occupant, as described in

35、4.1, are the issues evaluated. One dynamic impact test shall be performed for each category of child-occupant for which the CRS is intended for use.SAE AS5276/1 - 6 -4.1 Child-Occupant Simulation:One or more ATD representing the child categories for which the CRS is intended for use shall be used to

36、 simulate a child-occupant in the dynamic test. Selection of the ATD shall be based on compliance with the following requirements:a. A newborn infant ATD (manufactured in accordance with 49 CFR Part 572, subpart K) shall be used to test a Type I CRS.b. A newborn infant ATD and a 9 month-old child AT

37、D (manufactured in accordance with 49 CFR Part 572, subpart J) shall be used to test a TYPE II CRS.c. A 9 month-old child ATD and a 3 year-old child ATD (manufactured in accordance with 49 CFR Part 572, subpart C) shall be used to test a Type III CRS.4.1.2 ATD Preparation: All three types of ATDs us
