The invention discloses a translational energy-absorbing seat for protecting the neck during rear-end collision and belongs to the technical field of automotive passive safety. A seat translational energy-absorbing mechanism is arranged on a slideway of a conventional automobile seat; and the mechanism is arranged under a seat cushion and symmetrically arranged on two sides of the seat. During rear-end collision, the provided translational energy-absorbing mechanism can make the seat and the passenger translate a certain distance backward under the action of a certain constraint force, and reduce relative motion of the trunk and the head of the passenger. Therefore, the neck injury to the automobile passenger during rear-end collision is effectively reduced. Meanwhile, the translational energy-absorbing seat overcomes the defect that the conventional passenger neck protecting seat during rear-end collision has heavy weight, high cost, narrow rear-end collision speed range, and the like, and has better application prospects.

A low risk deployment passenger airbag system has two separate airbags, a top-mounted airbag 11 and a mid-mounted airbag 12. The top-mounted airbag 11 deploys into the adult occupant's head and upper torso areas without generating substantial downward deployment, while the mid-mounted airbag 12 deploys into the adult occupant's lower torso area without generating substantial upward deployment. This mode of substantially horizontal deployments can provide an out-of-position child with a safe mode of airbag inflation, reducing the risk of neck injuries. An infant in a rear facing child seat receives distributed small forces from two airbags with a possible time delay in initial airbag contact rather than a concentrated large force from the conventional single passenger airbag. The total capacity of the two airbags is about the same as the conventional single passenger airbag and thus can provide as effective protection. The top-mounted airbag 11 has a larger capacity in volume than the mid-mounted airbag 12 and serves as a main airbag for protecting in-position occupants. The mid-mounted airbag may be deployed at low output or no output level for belted occupants during high-speed crashes, which in turn can help reduce the injury values of an infant dummy in a rear facing child seat during the low risk deployment test.

Helmets which harness magnetic forces to reduce the force of impact collisions to helmets during contact sports, thus reducing the likelihood that athletes sustain a physical injury such as a traumatic brain injury and / or a neck injury, are described. The helmets incorporate strong magnets into the shell such that a repulsive magnetic force is generated between opposing helmets, thus reducing impact forces. Each helmet includes a protective shell and at least one magnet which is arranged or configured to provide for a spatially modulated magnetic array.

The invention relates to a multi-functional chair, more specifically a multi-functional campus seat for preventing waist and neck injuries. When sitting on the bench, the table can be rotated to the bottom of the stool for storage; there is a hand rest that can be accommodated, and a cup placement slot is set on the hand rest to prevent the liquid in the cup from spilling; the device can adjust the angle of the chair orientation; the device passes through The clip assembly and the positioning chuck make the back of the chair elastic, replacing the setting of the existing chair relying on elastic materials to elastically support the back of the chair. When using a small force to lean on the back of the chair, the back of the chair will tilt backwards after a certain range Returning to the original position buffers the impact force generated by the user leaning backwards to a certain extent. When the user leans on the back of the chair with greater strength, the back of the chair will tilt backwards and the angle of the back of the chair will be fixed accordingly. In this way, the angle of the back of the chair can be adjusted to reduce the fatigue of the students.
