Seatbelt |
For nearly as long as automobiles have been on the roads, occupant safety has been a subject of intense debate. In improving car safety, seat belts have been both a focal point of efforts and a point of contention undertaken by manufacturers, advocates and the government. Occasionally, seatbelts contribute to serious death or injury. However, nearly all safety experts agree that your chance of surviving a vehicle accident would dramatically increase when you buckle up with a seatbelt. The risk of death for a front seat occupant would be reduced by about 50 percent. Truly, seatbelts had been recognized as the most effective and important safety feature available on cars.
But how can a piece of fabric end up being the difference between death and life? What does it actually do? Seatbelts are invented because of a basic idea: to keep you from flying through the dashboard or hurdling through the windshield when your car comes to an abrupt stop. A typical seatbelt consists of a shoulder belt and a lap belt which are tightly secured to your car’s frame to hold the passengers in their seats. The shoulder belt extends across your chest, while the lap belt rests over your pelvis.
There are different types of seatbelts. Some of these are: the lap seatbelts, two-point seatbelts, automatic seatbelts, lap and sash seatbelts, three-point seatbelts, criss-cross seatbelts, five point harnesses, six-point harnesses, and inertia reel. Each type functions uniquely from the other depending on your vehicle type and the intended user. The locking mechanisms equipped in most seatbelts tighten the belt when pulled hard; however, they do not tighten when the seatbelts are pulled slowly. As the reel spins quickly, the centrifugal clutch implemented in the seatbelts is engaged. A ball bearing or a weighted pendulum may be an alternative option to secure the seatbelts.
