Dynamic testing of seat-backs and partitioning systems used as luggage restraint systems
3.1.
The body of the passenger car shall be anchored securely to a test sled, and this anchorage shall not act as reinforcement for seat-backs and the partitioning system.
After the installation of the test blocks as described in paragraph 2.1. or 2.2., the passenger car body shall be decelerated or, at the choice of the applicant, accelerated such that the curve remains within the area of the graph as shown in the Annex 9, Appendix, and the total velocity change ΔV is 50 +0/–2 km/h.
With the agreement of the manufacturer, the above described test pulse corridor can be used alternatively to fulfil the test of the seat strength according to paragraph 6.3.1. of this Regulation.
