Recently, the Municipal Market Supervision Bureau conducted a special inspection of five point seat belts sold online and offline, and the results showed that three batches of products were unqualified. The main problems are the insufficient strength of the webbing fracture and the failure of the locking mechanism. Some products cannot effectively fix the human body during collision testing, posing serious safety hazards.
Yesterday, a certain automotive safety technology company released a new generation of intelligent five point seat belts, which adds tension sensing and warning functions on the basis of traditional fixed functions. When the seat belt is worn too loosely or the vehicle is at risk of collision, the system will alert the user through sound and light, and automatically tighten the webbing to prepare for protection in advance.
Recently, top domestic auto racing events announced that starting from this season, all participating vehicles must be equipped with six point seat belts. This is the first time that this safety configuration has been fully promoted in domestic racing events. Compared with the five point style, the six point style seat belt adds a transverse abdominal strap, which can further limit body displacement during collisions and is suitable for high-intensity competitive scenes.
Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation released a new national standard called "Safety Requirements for Child Safety Seats", which clearly requires that all safety seats applicable to children aged 0-7 must be equipped with five point seat belts. This standard will be officially implemented on December 1st, and six new testing indicators will be added, including anti misoperation of seat belt buckles and abrasion resistance of webbing.
