Valve seat belts for kids


Dearborn - Ford unremitting doing technology development, especially for the safety of drivers, passengers to pedestrians. Now, one of America's giant car manufacturers are developing an air bag (airbag) and seat belts for children.

What is the greatness of two safety devices such? Special seat belts when the accident occurred to bubbling, though not great.

Ford already have the test, although the computer simulation produced can not be separated from the validation process for the Ford equipment. This technology allows to be part of the company's testing facilities to accommodate and understand the safety of children is more detailed and effective.

In the simulation of the accident, which became research from Ford is the variable child's body, such as strength and structural properties, muscle and bone. Aspects of this specification who became principal in a computer-generated simulation of the car so the results can be assessed.

Ford Research & Advanced Engineering Dr. Steve Rouhana said, life is very important in the safety car because he did not interact normally with a seat belt. "The body of a child is very different from adults. On the basis of the child as a test model is helpful to design a better system of protection," said Rouhana.

Only, he added, this technology takes a few more years to its development up to the perfect level.
