What is automotive safety configuration?

1. Automotive Security Configuration

Automotive security configuration can be divided into passive and active safety both security configuration.

active safety is to prevent the occurrence of a vehicle accident security configuration. In other words, his main role was before the accident, to avoid accidents. Such as a common ABS, EBD, ESP and so on. Therefore, active safety is more important than others.
and passive safety features that after the accident, to avoid security configuration inside the vehicle less susceptible to injury. In other words, his role is a remedy, after the accident, try to avoid personal injury. Such as a common air bags.

First, the active safety

Anti-lock braking system (ABS):

ABS Anti-lock is Braking System abbreviations. Most cars are equipped with ABS. In the case of an emergency braking, often you need to immediately stop the car, but prone to heavy braking wheel lock situation mdash; mdash; mdash; such as to cause the front wheel to lock the car loses the ability to turn the rear wheels lock flick accident prone and many more. ABS is mounted to solve the problem of wheel lock during braking, thereby improving the brake performance under poor road conditions and stability of an automobile during braking.

an electronic brake force distribution (EBD):

EBD before automatic adjustment is possible when the car braking, rear axle braking force distribution ratio, and with improved ABS braking stability. Car when braking, four tire friction with the ground is not the same, making it easy to slip, tilt and vehicle rollover accident. EBD four different tires attached to the ground induction by high-speed computers and computing respectively, brake according to different situations and different ways of power and constantly adjust the vehicle to ensure a smooth and safe.

Traction Control System (TCS):

TCS, also known as traction control. When braking automobile slippery surfaces, the wheels will slip, so that even the loss of directional control. Similarly, the car started or when hard acceleration, wheel slip is also possible, on slippery surfaces such as ice and snow also make the direction of out of control out of danger. TCS rely on electronic sensors detect wheel driving situation, constantly adjusting the output power, so that no wheel slip to improve acceleration and gradeability.

electronic stability (ESP):

Electronic stabilization device (ElectronicStablityProgram) is a traction control system not only controls the driving wheel and the driven wheel can be controlled. The case of oversteering rear wheel drive cars often appear, in which case the rear wheel will drift out of control, ESP vehicle will be stabilized by appropriate braking of the front wheel on the outside. When understeer, in order to correct the tracking direction, ESP would inner rear wheel brake, thereby correcting the direction of travel.

Second, the passive safety One of the latest developments

modern automobile industry is a large number of new electronic equipment is effectively applied to automobile safety systems. Smart airbags, for example, increase the sensor on the basis of ordinary air bag, it can be detected on the passenger seat children and adults, seat belts and a good position at which they are wearing what height? By collecting these data analysis and processing by the computer software control the expansion of the airbag, so that work best to avoid unnecessary expansion of the airbag occurs, thereby greatly enhancing their safety role. Traditional airbag can only play a protective role for vehicle occupants, the newest cars will pay more attention to people, vehicles and the integration of the environment, so the security protection of pedestrians will also be one of the factors considered in automotive designers. Some experts pointed out that the future of the air bag may unfold over the bumper along the contour of the hood that provides protection for the abdomen and buttocks, a tall adult pedestrians in a collision, while providing a head for adults and children of short stature Department and chest protection.

Safety glass:

The combination of tempered glass with laminated glass. Crushing glass split into many small pieces no sharp edges, easy to hurt. A total of 3 layers laminated glass, and have a strong interlayer adhesion and toughness, impact damage when the inner and outer layers are adhered to remain on the intermediate layer, is not easy to wounding.

tightening belts:

the moment when the vehicle collision accident, the crew moved forward yet it will first ribbon taut, tight crew immediately tightly tied to the chair, and then lock the webbing to prevent the occupant’s body leaning forward, effectively protect the safety of occupants.

Head and Neck occupant protection system (WHIPS):

WHIPS generally disposed in the front seat. When the car is hit rear, head and neck protection system rapidly inflating up, the entire back will tilt along with the occupant, the whole back of the occupant and the backrest to secure close together, it will tilt back to the maximum after reducing the strength of the head thrown forward, the seat back and a headrest of the seat moves rearward horizontally, the upper body and head gently obtained, supported and balanced protection, of the neck and spine to relieve the shock received force, and to prevent damage caused by head thrown back.

a child safety seat:

designed according to the situation of children, infants and young children can effectively reduce the damage, which through years of practice has been confirmed.
