  A preferred embodiment is shown in FIGS. This embodiment is for CISM (Child / Infant support mechanism). The CISM has a pair of ISOFIX latches and a base rigidly mounted with a rope. The stiffness of the base is reinforced with a hard material such as aircraft aluminum, and is strengthened with a “wishbone” connected between the ISOFIX latch and the rope mount and secured to the base over its entire length. The wishbone is best to have a straight portion that can receive a tensile load without deforming the surrounding plastic material. In addition, considering that the mounting on the base is the rear part of the ISOFIX latch and rope, the lateral acceleration of the vehicle will cause the load of inertial force from the child and the child-contacting support to the front base portion of the base mounting portion. Act to twist. In order to resist it, in addition to using a hard plastic material, the present invention includes two horizontal bars, one at the front of the base and one at the rear of the base, and two horizontal bars from the front to the rear. It has a hard rod or tube that connects the rods. Torque acting on the front of the base due to the load of inertial force is received by the hard rod or tube. It may further include a brace embedded in plastic and coupled to an ISOFIX latch and rope, and a sub-base along the cylindrical portion as shown.

  The sub-base (see FIG. 31) has a collision bar, which prevents the passenger from entering the space occupied by the occupant and pushes the occupant's outer shell (shell) away from the intrusion even if it enters. Yes. The impact bar has a side slide surface 246 that is slidably connected to the pivot head at the end of the flex bar 253 (FIG. 37), and the flex bar 253 is connected to the cradle 232 at the other end. Connecting. The sub-base has two horizontal slide bars 102, and the horizontal slide bar 102 has a pivot slider 111. The pivot slider is attached to the cradle 232 at its pivoting end. The sub-base rests on the base at the intersection of the cylindrical surfaces. Thus, the sub-base can take many angles with respect to the base, helping to allow for different inclinations depending on the occupant's preference and to allow for the attachment of forward and backward shells. There is a shock absorber (not shown for clarity), which can be compressed and expanded as a spring damper connected to the sub-base at point 239B and the other end connected to the cradle 232 at 239A. The Eventually, the collision bar 247 is pivotally attached to the sub-base and turns when the latch is released, thereby turning the cradle against the outer shell, thereby facilitating getting on and off. The shock absorber may have a plurality of separate telescopic elements. For example, with two elements in series, the first element may expand and contract for an acceleration of the order of 0.3G used when the vehicle turns on the road and results in lateral acceleration on the child and support. This element may have an end stop to avoid movement above a predetermined level. The second element may have a stretch that begins to operate at 20G for impact conditions. In particular, the first stage of stretching here positions the child to support with a large surface area before the second stretching begins.

  The cradle 232 is supported by two sliding pivots 254A and 254B and a flex bar 253. The flex bar has a shock absorbing capability and may be made of a spring material. The flex bar may also be replaced with a material that absorbs, crushes or absorbs energy by dampening flex bar deflection. The forward-facing outer shell (shell) 252 is secured by engaging the back edge of the outer shell with a support bar 258A and a pair of latches 259. In particular, the rear-facing outer shell is inverted by the occupant's leg edge and a latch under the torso. FIG. 18 shows this latch mounting bar 260 (hole) for the rear facing shell. In particular, the forward-facing and backward-facing outer shells may have armrests as shown in some drawings.

  The rear spine 256 has a support tube with a pin hole, which can be moved up and down by moving the pin and has an anti-twist rod attached to the support tube at its bottom. For a forward facing seat, this is attached to the headrest and assembly comprising a pillow pad, harness and shoulder support. These items can rotate on each of the two axes, and the two axes are oriented to ensure that the harness and pillow pad rotate away from the occupant when lifted, thereby facilitating getting on and off To do. Raising the harness and pillow pad is spring-loaded and easy to release. With the tilted axis of this assembly, the pillow pad and shoulder pad / support are slightly ahead of the child, thereby concealing the shoulder and head in some cases. The shoulder pads / supports and pillow pads have different widths that can be adjusted, and in this embodiment, a retractable pin and a number of appropriately positioned holes in a sleeve pivotably mounted on an axis. It is adjusted with.

  The two-part harness is clamped together with a loose piece of webbing or other material, and the two parts are disassembled by the webbing when the harness is pulled over the child's head. In particular, the two-part harness can be operated with one hand to fix the child.

  The two-part semi-rigid harness is adjustable in length at the connection point directly above the abdominal pad (which provides a large contact area to support the torso) and has a latch configuration at the end just below the outer shell of the cradle. To be made to have. The latch moves back and forth so that the seat can be used by children of any body shape.

  It will be seen that the pillow pad is slightly inclined forward and laterally outward. This is because the pillow pad is used as a sleeping pillow for children. When the outer shell and the occupant are subjected to lateral acceleration, the outer shell and the cradle rotate due to their inertial mass, thereby directing the pillow pad in the direction opposite to the direction of acceleration in a direction close to vertical (see FIG. 40), It supports the head receiving intense acceleration. In particular, the position of the pillow pad in the normal operating position reduces the obstruction of the child's view and reduces hearing difficulties compared to other large side child seats.

The entire upper assembly including the headrest, pillow pad, harness, shoulder pad / support can be moved up and down by unpinning the rear spine and moving the support tube.
Various embodiments have a headrest on the shaft inside the tube that supports the other parts of the assembly, thereby allowing the headrest to be adjusted independently.

  In addition, the upper assembly support rod is designed to twist with respect to its axis so that the upper assembly lags behind the movement of the outer shell while resisting inertial loading of the head and shoulders, thereby reducing the maximum acceleration of the head can do. This is shown in FIGS. 49 and 50, and in another alternative embodiment, has a flex spine that bends to allow the different movements desired between the head and chest. This is illustrated in FIGS. 51 and 52.

  Further, the pillow pad material is adapted to deform upon contact with the head, thereby reducing the maximum load condition.

  In order to finally handle the impact from the front, the pillow pad in the normal operating state reduces the front and bottom space of the face. In frontal or oblique impacts, the neck receives the full load and the head is supported by a pillow pad without the neck becoming a strong tensile load. In a variation of this design, the main upper assembly hub has a spring pivot combination. When the torso contacts the harness, the forward force pulls the traction shaft, thereby reducing the space between the pillow pads, thereby increasing the possibility of supporting the head with a frontal impact.

  In the case of a rear-facing seat for infants, the outer shell is placed facing away from the cradle. See, for example, FIG. The same arrangement is used for the harness, shoulder pad and pillow pad, but a conventional soft harness is used because the main frontal impact load acts behind the seat (in front of the vehicle).

  The same cradle rotation mechanism functions for side impact and acceleration. In this embodiment, the use of a simplified variation of the upper assembly for the rear facing seat is shown in FIGS. 14, 15, 16, and 17. FIG. Here, a torsion [T] bar is used to provide different movements between the head and upper fuselage and the lower fuselage moving with the cradle under lateral inertial load. Insert the torsion [T] bar into the front spine and hold it with the same pins that hold the shaft with the latch for the forward facing semi-rigid harness. The headrest pushes the torsion bar with the inertial load of the head, and the torsion bar twists so that the head can make another movement with respect to the chest.

  In particular, the relative movement of each part of the occupant's human body is all designed to coincide with the natural movement axis. In this case, the spine and neck rotating movement and the spine and neck bending movement.

  Shown with a chassis and retractable handle that allows the rear seat to be retracted when the outer shell is removed from the cradle and the car is attached for the convenience of the mother / guardian. The handle has a unique configuration with a retracting mechanism that allows only the handle to be retracted, extended and controlled. An extension element may be added to the handle so that it can be extended longer.

  In all embodiments with a reversible outer shell, the position of the center of gravity relative to the support point producing the reaction force determines the direction of redirection. It is preferable to make the reaction force smaller on the side where it is necessary to move more with respect to the inertial load due to acceleration.

  34 and 36 illustrate a passive air conditioning system for an occupant shell support mechanism in a vehicle. Here, the support shell (shell) has a substantially rigid perforated structural shell, inside and adjacent to it, a flexible membrane structure with perforations is staggered from the perforations of the structural shell and expands Adjacent to the foam layer, which sometimes absorbs air and releases air when compressed, the inside is a gas permeable membrane used to contact the occupant, while the occupant is in the first direction while the temporary lateral acceleration of the vehicle acts Because the mass of inertia compresses the foam so that the perforated membrane adjacent to the perforated structural shell provides a seal against the flow of air through the structural shell as a result of compressive forces and as a result of staggered perforations. Pushing air to the occupant side, where the momentary mass is moved away from the foam and the permeable membrane while a temporary lateral acceleration acts in the second direction, whereby the foam sucks air from both sides, This Thus, the low pressure generated next to the perforated membrane separates the perforated membrane from the perforated structural shell, thereby allowing staggered perforations to inject air into the foam from the outer surface of the structural shell. Develop a mechanism to put fresh air into the outer shell of the support so that passengers can comfortably. In particular, staggered perforations between the structural shell and the membrane may be statistically staggered.

(Alternative embodiment)
The embodiment of the CISM shown in FIGS. 21 to 30 includes two sliders and two corresponding pivots, and thus has two biaxial slides each pivotally connected to the CISM. One or both of the sliding mechanisms have a shock absorbing element. In the figure, one of the sliding elements (sliders) 107/111 of the tube 102 has a pair of shock absorbing elements inside the tube 102, and a pin acting as a pivot 233 has two sides on the shock absorber only during compression. Engage with each of them. The slider 107/111 has a hole through its body and then houses a pin that passes through the slot in 102. The two shock absorbers on the two sides of the pin 233 attached to the 107/111 each contract in the CISM when the vehicle is subjected to an impact as it passes through a bend or a lateral acceleration due to centrifugal forces. In order to respond to a small acceleration of centrifugal force and a large acceleration of impact, a multi-element shock absorber having a plurality of compression characteristics may be used.

  FIGS. 21 to 30 also show a headrest support Q101, which has a headrest flap that is pivotably mounted so that the flap is pressed when subjected to dangerous lateral acceleration, thereby supporting a large surface area. A pivot that pivots as much as possible is provided to conceal the head. The illustrated headrest flap also includes one or more holes in the ear portion to allow sound to pass well into the child's ear. Under dangerous acceleration, the flaps lean against the headrest support, which does not require the formation of holes, so the holes do not constitute the structural strength of the headrest. The headrest flap is also shown to have a recessed portion near the front of the eye to prevent the child's view from narrowing. During dangerous acceleration, the height of the head flap, which involves the rotation of the CISM, is raised to provide the highest possible support needed for the head. Thus, the present invention is a solution that enhances safety without the child having to sacrifice the stimuli obtained in the vehicle for growth. Most other designs require a huge armpit to provide similar support.

  FIGS. 21-30 do not show ISOFIX or other latching mechanisms for clarity. These are attached to the bent bar shown at the bottom of the sheet.

  Any implementation of the child seat and CISM described herein may use a pretensioner device if available on the vehicle. The safety belt is attached to a bar or lever that is pivotally or slidably attached to the seat frame. When the pretensioner is activated, the bar or lever moves, activating the cable or other mechanical mechanism that tightens the child's harness.

  When the side arm 239 is on the door side of the child seat, the side arm 239 functions as an impact barrier and further protects the child. In some embodiments, the side arm 239 is not fixed and can be swung outward or slid out of the way on another sliding mechanism, and the CISM is inclined outward to facilitate getting on and off.

  Another alternative embodiment of occupant support is illustrated in FIGS. In this embodiment, there is a cylindrical slide for the safety beam lower element 102 and the safety beam upper element 107, the safety beam upper element is moved to the access / boarding position of FIG. 10E22, and the worm drive is moved to the safety beam lower element 102. The drive nut or ball screw for driving the worm is attached to the safety beam upper element 107 through the slot C116 of the safety beam lower element 102, and as can be seen from the figure, the lateral impact load on the protective shield 106 side is Supported by a safety beam lower element 102 and a safety beam upper element 107 fixed to the central member 101. However, the inertial load at the time of a lateral impact is that the auxiliary slide 111 (without an impact separator) is relatively absorbed by the safety beam upper element 107 and the spring damper is absorbed between the safety beam upper element 107 and the auxiliary slide 111. It moves toward the vessel (not shown), thereby reducing the maximum acceleration applied to the occupant. Further, in the case of a small vehicle collision, the occupant can move from the normal operation position shown in FIG. 7 to the initial load position in contact with the plurality of shock absorbers as shown in FIG. 8, and the plurality of shock absorbers are as shown in FIG. With different parameters to rotate the occupant to deviate from the impact (towards the direction of acceleration), and then following the attenuation of the acceleration wave, as shown in FIGS. Move toward the center and away from the collision. In these figures, the seat does not show the occupant support mechanism, but only a set of front and rear adjustment side mounts for the seat. In this embodiment, the vertical pivot C112, the front element C114 and the rear element C113 of the seat frame support slidably connected to C115 are shown, and the impact separator and the shock absorber are removed so that the seat frame can be rotated. Sometimes, the distance between the auxiliary slides 111 that slide at different positions under the action of a load or during getting on and off can be changed, which further facilitates passenger access. A further improvement (not shown) of the embodiment is similar to the CISM of 1, 2 and the occupant support rotates to some extent around the axis of the vertical plane passing through the direction of vehicle movement (of the CISM of FIGS. 1, 2). 234), thereby tilting the occupant support and utilizing impact energy to rotate the occupant support mechanism to increase the support area while reducing head and chest movement. If the movement of the occupant support mechanism back and forth is not obstructed, the safety beam lower element 102 and the upper element 107 are positioned below and below the occupant support mechanism, as in the CISM of FIGS. A variant of the CISM of this embodiment has an ISOFIX latch that is attached to the end of the safety beam lower element 102 and the safety beam upper element 107 is coupled to the auxiliary slide 111 (or the same element in some embodiments). May be. The CISM in the embodiment may not be attached to the central body member 101 or the protective shield 106.

(Additional embodiments)
Yet another embodiment uses a micro air cushion for the body filled with viscous fluid with ventilation into the auxiliary chamber and an internal constriction that limits the rate of fluid movement in the auxiliary chamber, thereby allowing normal pressure to be applied. Then, it takes the shape of a body part such as the back of the head and chest, but a rapid compression such as at the time of collision results in a high level of resistance.

  In yet another embodiment, having a curved sliding surface attached to the CISM, at least some of the rollers have a set of rollers that engage the sliding surface to be on both sides of the sliding surface, thereby The tension / pressing reaction force is transmitted from the CISM to the roller mount. In addition, the set of rollers is mounted on a frame that allows the roller to move slightly laterally and to some degree of rotational motion about an axis parallel to the rotating machine shaft, and rotational motion and lateral motion rotate the CISM. Thus, the occupant can turn away from the impact (in the direction of acceleration).

  As described above, the present invention presented provides a new paradigm that provides important safety comfort and convenience features and provides utility in accessing a vehicle.
