项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract Minnesota HealthSolutions Corporation (MHS) proposes to develop a child safety seat with a novel intuitive harness tensioning system to improve the rate of proper harnessing of children into child safety seats. Children are harnessed into child safety seats via a 5-point harness with shoulder straps that buckle at the crotch. The entire harness assembly must be properly tensioned to ensure safety. Loose harnesses are a common misuse in child safety seats. Several large studies have observed that only 10% to 20% of children are correctly harnessed into correctly installed seats. Improper use of child restraints substantially reduces their effectiveness and is a major public health concern. The proposed child safety seat will utilize an all mechanical, intuitive system to improve proper use of the child safety seat harness. We hypothesize that a child safety seat that provides an intuitive and easy-to-use harness system will significantly improve the rate of proper child safety seat usage and reduce vehicle crash-related child injuries and deaths. An interdisciplinary team of researchers has been assembled to define, build, and evaluate a prototype system.

项目概要/摘要明尼苏达州健康解决方案公司（MHS）提议开发一种具有新颖直观的儿童安全座椅安全带张紧系统可提高儿童正确使用儿童安全座椅的比率。孩子们是通过带肩带的 5 点式安全带固定在儿童安全座椅上，肩带可在胯部扣紧。整个安全带组件必须适当张紧以确保安全。松散的安全带是儿童常见的误用行为安全座椅。几项大型研究发现，只有 10% 到 20% 的儿童被正确地利用正确安装座椅。儿童约束装置使用不当会大大降低其有效性，是一个主要问题公共卫生问题。拟议的儿童安全座椅将利用全机械、直观的系统来改善正确使用儿童安全座椅安全带。我们假设儿童安全座椅能够提供直观且易于使用的安全带系统将显着提高儿童安全座椅的正确使用率并减少车辆与事故相关的儿童受伤和死亡。一个跨学科的研究团队已经成立，以定义，构建并评估原型系统。
