5、 Recommended Practice aligns the document with current industry procedures while preserving the advantages of the new tools and methods described in SAE J4002 and SAE J4003. The new definitions and procedures allow manufacturers flexibility to change accelerator pedal shape and orientation without n

6、ecessitating changes in the Seating Reference Point (SgRP) location and simplify the communication of pedal and package requirements between manufacturers and suppliers.A new Shoe Plane and Shoe Plane Angle (SPA) replace the Pedal Plane and Pedal Plane Angle defined in the previous revision. The SPA

7、 equation is now cubic, based on an improved empirical fit to the kinematics of the SAE J4002 HPM-II and SAE J826 HPM geometry. The SPA equation is now also based on an ankle angle fixed at 87 degrees, which is a current industry practice and identical in intent to the SAE J1516 theta equation. Howe

8、ver, the new fit better characterizes the kinematics of the HPM and the H-point Design Tool (HPD).The new Ball of Foot Reference Point (BOFRP) replaces the Pedal Reference Point (PRP) in the previous version as the reference for the SgRP locator curve. The key difference is that the BOFRP need not l

9、ie on the pedal surface, giving flexibility to change accelerator pedal shape and orientation without changing SgRP. The BOFRP is now 203 mm from the Accelerator Heel Point (AHP), consistent with SAE J826, SAE J1100:2008, and vehicle manufacturers around the world. The recommended SgRP Z location fo

10、r seats with vertical adjustment was revised in response to some manufacturers increasing the range of seat height adjustments beyond the ranges used to develop this document. Depending on the amount of height adjustment provided, SgRP_Z will either be at mid-height of the H-point travel window or l

11、ower, with a maximum height of 20 mm above the full-down H-point travel path. The HPD has also been revised to include some elements of the SAE J826 2-D H-point template, based on requests from manufacturers. A 2-D profile that includes a shoulder reference point has been added to the standard form

12、of the HPD CAD tool. This document may be used with the SAE J826 design tool, provided that the flat shoe bottom defined in SAE J826 (2008) is used. SAE J4004 Revised AUG2008 - 2 -FOREWORDThis document describes how to position and posture the H-point design tool (HPD), and how to establish the seat

13、ing reference point (SgRP) and other key reference points that are used in the design and specification of both driver and passenger seat positions. Use of the HPD in conjunction with the H-point machine (HPM-II) for benchmarking vehicle occupant packages is described in SAE J4003. Prediction of whe

14、re drivers select seat positions on the seat adjuster path is important for many aspects of vehicle design related to comfort and safety. Vehicle designers use driver seat position models to determine the length and location of adjustable seat tracks to insure that drivers of varying size can comfor

15、tably reach and operate vehicle hand and foot controls.This document provides a new method for determining driver seat track length and for positioning the seat track in the vehicle package. It is based on studies and statistical models developed at the University of Michigan Transportation Research

16、 Institute. The new method for positioning driver seat tracks in the vehicle is based on H30 and two new variables, L6 and the presence or absence of a clutch pedal. The seat track length is independent of vehicle seat or package variables. It is based on accommodating with high statistical confiden

17、ce the range of statures represented by an equal number of U.S. male and female drivers. Background details of the new method are given in Appendix A. Historical information about the prior procedure is given in Appendix E. SAE J4004 will in the future fully replace SAE J1517:1990 for Class A vehicl

18、es. Until 2017 the ball-of-foot and accelerator heel point determined according to SAE J1517 may be used in lieu of the BOFRP cited in this document. However, SAE J4004 should be used to determine the seat track length and the accommodation levels for the U.S. driving population. SAE J4004 Revised A

28、S 391. SCOPE This SAE Recommended Practice describes how to position and posture the H-point design tool (HPD) described in Appendix B, and how to establish the seating reference point (SgRP), design H-point travel path, and other key reference points that are used in the design and specification of

29、 both driver and passenger seat positions.This practice also provides a method for determining the length of the seat track for a driver seat that adjusts fore/aft. The seat track length is based on a desired level of driver accommodation, assuming a U.S. population containing an equal number of mal

30、e and female drivers. The procedure can be used to establish driver seat track accommodation for new vehicle designs or to evaluate accommodation in existing vehicles.A general method for determining driver seat track length for any driver population (male and female stature distribution) at any sel

31、ected accommodation percentile and gender mix is given in Appendix A.Application of this document is limited to Class A Vehicles (Passenger Cars, Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles, and Light Trucks) as defined in SAE J1100.

BOF and BOFRP are not coincident when

42、 there is an interference condition (4.2.2.1). When BOF and HOS are on the floor, HOS defines the FRP. The terms “shoe tool” and “shoe” are both used to describe the HPD shoe.

DETERMINING THE DRIVER SEATING REFERENCE POINT AND POSITIONING THE HPD This procedure is used to position the H-point design tool (HPD, Figure 2) in the corr

45、ect location for the driver, and to establish the driver Seating Reference Point (SgRP-Front), Ball of Foot Reference Point (BOFRP), Accelerator Heel Point (AHP) and driver Shoe Plane Angle (SPA). Specifications and tolerances for the HPD are given in Appendix B. Note that shoe plane and SPA replace

46、s pedal plane and pedal plane angle terminology used in SAE J1516. Design procedures in this document can be used with both the HPM and HPM-II CAD tools. The SAE J826 HPM has a non-articulated torso that does not provide a measure of Lumbar Support Prominence (LSP). The SAE J826 manikin shoe has a s

47、tandard bottom-of-shoe profile with a heel pocket, and an optional flat shoe bottom without the heel pocket. Procedures in this document use the flat bottom-of-shoe profile. 4.1 Overview of Design Procedures The HPD is used during design to establish key reference points within the vehicle for each

48、occupant seating position, including the SgRP and heel points (AHP for the driver and FRPs for passengers). These points are then used to configure and measure many aspects of the vehicle interior compartment. SAE J4004 Revised AUG2008 - 8 -FIGURE 2 - H-POINT DESIGN TOOL (HPD) - ELEMENTS ARE COMMON

49、WITH H-POINT MACHINE (HPM-II) EXCEPT FOR PARTS OF THE 2-D PROFILE The SgRP is a specific and unique H-point location for each designated seating position. (Although adjustable seats will have many H-point locations within their H-point travel path, only one H-point location is defined as the SgRP for any designated occupant seating position.) The most critical SgRP is the one defined for the driver (SgRP-Front). It is used to p
