Project Summary/Abstract Minnesota HealthSolutions (MHS) proposes to develop an advanced harness system for motor vehicle child safety seats. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for American children. A total of 2,590 children aged 12 years or younger died as a result of unintentional motor vehicle traffic crashes from 2010-13 and hundreds of thousands more were injured. When used properly, child safety seats are the most effective way to protect young children involved in motor vehicle crashes from serious injury or death. A child safety seat harness, typically a 5-point seat belt webbing system, restrains the child in the seat. The tightness of the harness on the child's torso at the onset of the crash is directly related to the amount of head excursion experienced by the child and any slack in the harness at the time the child is buckled into the seat results in increased head excursion. Head excursion is closely linked with head injuries in children during crashes. Despite the importance of correctly tensioning the harness, it is often under-tensioned. A common reason that harnesses are so often under- tensioned is the fact that harness tensioning is physically difficult, particularly in the rear-facing position, in smaller vehicles, for physically weak or disabled persons, for persons who are unable to fit inside the rear of a vehicle with a child safety seat, etc. Improvements are needed in child safety seat design to decrease the prevalence of improper harness tensioning. A novel new child safety seat is proposed to address this need and reduce head injuries in children during crashes.

项目摘要/摘要 明尼苏达州HealthSolutions（MHS）提议为汽车儿童开发先进的安全带系统 安全座椅。汽车撞车是美国儿童死亡的主要原因。总共2,590 12岁或以下的儿童因2010 - 13年间无意的汽车交通坠毁而死亡 成千上万的受伤。正确使用时，儿童安全座椅是最有效的方法 保护涉及机动车撞车的幼儿免受严重伤害或死亡。儿童安全座椅安全带， 通常是5分安全带织带系统，限制座椅上的孩子。线束上的紧密度 坠机开始时孩子的躯干与孩子所经历的头部游览数量直接相关 当孩子被屈服于座椅时，线束上的任何松弛都会导致头部偏移增加。 撞车事故中儿童的头部受伤紧密联系在一起。尽管很重要 张紧线束，通常不张紧。线索经常不足的常见原因 张紧的事实是，线束张力在身体上很难，尤其是在后方的位置，在较小的 对于身体虚弱或残障人士的车辆，对于无法与车辆后部合身的人 儿童安全座椅等。在儿童安全座椅设计中需要进行改进，以降低流行率 线束张力不当。提出了一个新的新儿童安全座椅来满足这一需求并减少头部 坠机期间儿童受伤。
