Abstract
Design, construction and performance evaluation of impact tests simulator for child restraint systems. The constructive solution aimed to simulate an automobilistic collision to demonstrate and conviction people about the need to retain children in vehicles. This is a sled, guided and moved on rails being pulled by steel cable who crash without permanent damage against deformable barriers. The equipment was designed for easy installation in any places, whereas the floor is horizontal and flat, an induction motor pulls the cable and a system to control speed, acceleration and stop was implemented. The electronic instrumentation used in the simulator assembly allows assessment of equipment performance for speeds up to 20 km/h.
