Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Absicherung der Wirbelsäule und des Kopfes eines Kindes bei einer abrupten Verzögerung in einem Kraftfahrzeug.The invention relates to a device for securing the spine and a child's head due to an abrupt deceleration in a motor vehicle.

Das DE 90 01 789 U1 offenbart einen Kindersitz mit einem Rückhaltegurt­ system für den Körper eines Kindes. Dabei ist für den Kopf des Kindes eine zusätzli­ che Rückhalteeinrichtung vorgesehen, die aus einem Gurtsystem besteht. Der oder die den Kopf des Kindes umschlingenden Gurte sind über ein elastisches Band an Teilen des Fahrzeugs oder an dem Sitz befestigt. Durch das elastische Band soll der Kopf des Kindes progressiv verzögert werden. Diese bekannte Rückhaltevorrichtung bietet aber keinen Schutz gegen einen Seitenaufprall des Kopfes, und außerdem ist die Bewegungsfreiheit des Kopfes auf die Dehnbarkeit des elastischen Bandes be­ schränkt.DE 90 01 789 U1 discloses a child seat with a restraint belt system for a child's body. There is an additional one for the child's head che retention device is provided, which consists of a belt system. The river Oder the straps wrapping around the child's head are attached via an elastic band Parts of the vehicle or attached to the seat. Due to the elastic band The child's head may be progressively delayed. This known restraint but does not offer protection against a side impact of the head, and also is the freedom of movement of the head on the elasticity of the elastic band limits.

Die US 4 477 041 offenbart ein Rückhaltesystem für einen Schleudersitz, bei dem der Helm des Piloten über einen Gurt mit einem an der Rückenlehne des Sitzes befestigten, mit einem Beschleunigungssensor ausgestatteten Gurtaufroller verbun­ den ist.US 4,477,041 discloses a restraint system for an ejection seat, at the pilot's helmet over a belt with one on the back of the seat  attached belt retractor equipped with an acceleration sensor that is.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die bei einer abrupten Verzögerung des Kraftfahrzeugs einen optimalen Schutz des Kindes gewährleistet, ohne jedoch im normalen Fahr­ betrieb dessen Bewegungsfreiheit unnötig einzuschränken, und die im Wege einer Nachrüstung an einen vorhandenen Kindersitz angebaut werden kann.The invention has for its object a device of the beginning mentioned type to create an abrupt deceleration of the motor vehicle ensures optimal protection of the child, but without normal driving operated to limit its freedom of movement unnecessarily, and that in the way of a Retrofitting can be added to an existing child seat.

Eine diesen Anforderungen entsprechende Vorrichtung ist im Patentanspruch angegeben.A device corresponding to these requirements is in the claim specified.

Mit der Erfindung wird eine Vorrichtung geschaffen, die ohne großen Aufwand an einen vorhandenen Kindersitz angebaut werden kann. Die Schutzfunktion des mit einem Rückhaltegurtsystem für den Körper des Kindes versehenen Kindersitzes bleibt daher erhalten, zusätzlich ist aber ein optimaler Schutz des Kopfes gewährlei­ stet. Diese zusätzliche Schutzwirkung wird erreicht, ohne die Bewegungsfreiheit im normalen Fahrbetrieb nennenswert einzuschränken.With the invention, a device is created that without much effort can be attached to an existing child seat. The protective function of the a restraint system for the child’s child’s body is therefore retained, but in addition an optimal protection of the head is guaranteed stet. This additional protective effect is achieved without the freedom of movement in the limit normal driving operations significantly.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nachfolgend näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is explained in more detail below.

In der einzigen Figur der Zeichnung ist ein Kindersitz 1 schematisch in der Seitenansicht dargestellt, der in ein nicht gezeigtes Kraftfahrzeug eingebaut ist. Ein herkömmliches Rückhaltegurtsystem KG dient zum Zurückhalten des Oberkörpers eines Kindes K bei einer abrupten Verzögerung des Kraftfahrzeugs. Zum Schutz des Kopfes dient ein Helm 3, der mit einer Gurtkupplung 6 versehen ist. Auf der Rücken­ lehne des Kindersitzes 1 ist ein Aufsatz 8 angeordnet. Der Aufsatz 8 enthält einen mit einem Beschleunigungssensor ausgestatteten Gurtaufroller 2. Der Aufsatz 8 ist mit einem Ausgang 5 für einen auf den Gurtaufroller 2 aufgewickelten Gurt 4 versehen. Nachdem das Kind K Platz genommen hat, wird der Gurt 4 mit der Kupplung 6 des Helms 3 verbunden. In the single figure of the drawing, a child seat 1 is shown schematically in side view, which is installed in a motor vehicle, not shown. A conventional restraint belt system KG serves to restrain the upper body of a child K in the event of an abrupt deceleration of the motor vehicle. A helmet 3 , which is provided with a belt coupling 6 , serves to protect the head. On the backrest of the child seat 1 , an attachment 8 is arranged. The attachment 8 contains a belt retractor 2 equipped with an acceleration sensor. The attachment 8 is provided with an outlet 5 for a belt 4 wound on the belt retractor 2 . After the child K has taken a seat, the belt 4 is connected to the coupling 6 of the helmet 3 .

Bei einer abrupten Verzögerung des Kraftfahrzeugs blockiert der Gurtaufroller 2, so daß der Helm 3 vom Gurt 4 an einer Vorwärtsbewegung unter dem Einfluß der Trägheitskraft gehindert ist. Der Kopf des Kindes wird daher von dem Helm 3 nicht nur bei einem Aufprall geschützt, sondern er wird auch gegen eine nach vorne gerichtete Nickbewegung mit der damit verbundenen Gefahr einer Verletzung der Wirbelsäule geschützt.In the event of an abrupt deceleration of the motor vehicle, the belt retractor 2 is blocked, so that the helmet 3 is prevented from moving forward by the belt 4 under the influence of the inertial force. The child's head is therefore not only protected by the helmet 3 in the event of an impact, but is also protected against a forward pitching movement with the associated risk of injury to the spine.
