Common use of Overturning Clause in Contracts

Overturning. The manikin shall be equipped with either of the load application devices as appropriate, and described in Annex 21. Place the manikin in the restraints installed in accordance with this Regulation and taking into account the manufacturer's instructions and with the standard slack as specified in paragraph 7.1.3.5. below, applied for all systems identically. The restraint shall be fastened to the test bench or vehicle seat. The whole enhanced child restraint system shall be rotated around a horizontal axis contained in the median longitudinal plane of the enhanced child restraint system through an angle of 540° ± 5° at a speed of 2-5 degrees/second and stopped in this position. For the purposes of this test, devices intended for use in specific cars may be attached to the test bench described in Annex 6. At this static inverted position, a mass equivalent to four times that of the dummy shall be applied vertically downwards in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation in addition to the dummy utilizing the load application device described in Annex 21. The load shall be applied in a gradual controlled manner at a rate not exceeding gravitational acceleration or 400 mm/min. Maintain the prescribed maximum load for a duration of 30 -0/+5 seconds. Remove the load at a rate not exceeding 400 mm/min and measure residual displacement. Rotate the whole seat for 180° to return to the starting position. This test cycle shall be carried out again rotating in the reverse direction. With the rotational axis in the horizontal plane and at 90° to that of the two earlier tests, the procedure shall be repeated in the two directions of rotation. These tests shall be carried out using both the smallest and the largest appropriate dummy of the size range for which the restraining device is intended. Any adjustment of the dummy or enhanced child restraint systems during the complete test cycle is not allowed. Dynamic testing for frontal, rear and lateral impact: Frontal impact test shall be performed on "i-Size" (Integral Universal ISOFIX Enhanced Child Restraint Systems) and "Specific vehicle ISOFIX" Enhanced Cchild Rrestraint Ssystems and to non-integral Enhanced Child Restraint Systems universal booster seats and specific vehicle booster seats; Rear impact test shall be performed on i-Size and "Specific Vehicle ISOFIX" Rearward and lateral facing Enhanced Child Restraint Systems; Lateral impact test are performed only on the test bench for i-Size" Integral Universal ISOFIX Enhanced Child Restraint Systems and "Specific vehicle ISOFIX" child restraint systems and for non-integral Enhanced Child Restraint Systems universal booster seats and specific vehicle booster seats. The ECRS shall be tested in its most upright used position. If this upright position falls outside the Seat Fixture, this position shall still to be chosen. However with width positions outside the Seat Fixture, for the lateral test the width position of lateral shock absorbers that still fit in the Vehicle Seat Fixture shall be chosen; The lateral dynamic test(s) will be performed in this(ese) configuration(s); For frontal and rear impacts, the tests shall be performed with the ECRS adjusted to the size of the dummy (ies) selected to cover the entire size range, in the child seating position representing the worst case for this dummy and impact orientation; An anti rebound device acting on the vehicle seatback shall stay inside the seat fixture in one position, but may protrude beyond the seat fixture in its adjusted position according to the user manual. Tests using the trolley and test bench Frontal and rear impact tests The trolley and test bench used in the dynamic test shall meet the requirements of Annex 6 to this Regulation. The trolley shall remain horizontal throughout deceleration or acceleration. The test bench shall be rotated 180° when testing in compliance with the requirements of the rear impact test. When testing a rearward-facing Enhanced Child Restraint System intended for use in the front seating position, the vehicle facia shall be represented by a rigid bar attached to the trolley in such a way that all the energy absorption takes place in the Enhanced Child Restraint System. Deceleration or acceleration devices The applicant shall choose to use one of the two following devices: Deceleration test device:

For the purposes of this test, devices intended for use in specific cars may be attached to the test bench described in Annex 6. At this static inverted position, a mass equivalent to four times that of the dummy dummy, with a tolerance of -0/+5% with reference to dummiers nominal masses as in Annex 8, shall be applied vertically downwards in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation in addition to the dummy utilizing the load application device described in Annex 21. The load shall be applied in a gradual controlled manner at a rate not exceeding gravitational acceleration or 400 mm/min. Maintain the prescribed maximum load for a duration of 30 -0/+5 seconds.
