Embodiment Construction

[0023] refer to figure 2 , an embodiment of an anthropomorphic test apparatus or crash test dummy is indicated generally at 30 and includes a pelvis assembly 35 . Pelvic assembly 35 includes pelvic member 40 . Crash test dummy 30 also generally includes an abdominal member (not shown) coupled to pelvic member 40 , which generally corresponds generally to the abdominal and pelvic region of crash test dummy 30 . A pair of lower thigh members (not shown) is also coupled to the pelvic member 40 such that the pelvic member 40 is disposed between the abdominal member and the pair of lower thigh members.

[0024] Crash test dummy 30 is of the 50th percentile (50%) male type and is shown in a seated position. The crash test dummy 30 is mainly used to test the performance of the vehicle interior restraint system for adult front and rear seat occupants. The dimensions and weight of the crash test dummy 30 are based on anthropometric studies, usually independently performed by the fol...

Abstract

The invention relates to coupling design for coupling a simulated pelvic flesh to a pelvic support structure of a pelvis assembly of an anthropomorphic test device. An anthropomorphic test device utilizes a mounting mechanism for coupling a hollow member including a simulated flesh to a support structure, with the simulated flesh including a foam core portion covered with a skin portion. The mounting mechanism includes inserts, such as plastic or metal inserts having a flange portion and an elongated tubular member, which are introduced in multiple places within the simulated flesh with the flange portion within the foam core portion and the elongated tubular member extending through the skin portion. A fastening member is inserted through an elongated opening in the insert and within a receiving cavity portion of the support structure to secure the hollow member to the support structure. The hollow member may be a hollow pelvic member, and the support structure may be a pelvic supportstructure, with the hollow pelvic member secured to the pelvic support structure via the mounting mechanism.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62,886,186, filed August 13, 2019, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to anthropomorphic testing equipment, and more particularly to coupling designs for coupling simulated pelvic muscles to a pelvic support structure of a pelvic assembly of an anthropomorphic testing equipment. Background technique [0004] Automobile, aerospace and other vehicle manufacturers conduct a variety of crash tests to measure the effects of a crash on the vehicle and its occupants. Through crash testing (also sometimes referred to as crash testing), vehicle manufacturers gain valuable information that can be used to improve vehicles. [0005] Crash testing typically involves the use of anthropomorphic test equipment (sometimes called anthropomorphic mannequins, an...
