Abstract

The injuries from the impact of the face and chest towards airbags and the interior of the car in frontal collision have been issued by many researches. Car manufacturers have been trying to develop a seat to protect passengers from these injuries. In this report the study undergo the development process of an automotive seat that optimizes comfort with safety. The product is a Crash Restraint Safety (CRS) Seat that can minimize airbags related and body submarining injury. The conceptual design of CRS Seat is developed by studying related patents and is presented based on Functional Analysis, Morphological Chart and Pugh Method. In order to increase CRS Seat design sophistication, the embodiment design of CRS Seat is modeled in 3D using SolidWorks software. For CRS seat comfort evaluation, subjects’ buttock-seat pressure distributions on CRS Seat are analyzed. Mathematical dynamic analyses on occupant motion in collision are analyzed to justify the mean of CRS Seat limiting occupant motion during collision does in fact reduced the occupants’ possibility of injury.
