1、Designation:D580708(Reapproved 2013)Standard Practice forEvaluating the Overpressurization Characteristics ofInflatable Restraint Cushions1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5807;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case
2、of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedures and conditions usedto evaluate the physical performance of infl
3、atable restraintcushions during and after overpressurization testing at elevatedpressures capable of causing cushion bursting using air pres-surization equipment.1.2 The physical performance characteristics that may beobtained in conjunction with this practice are internal cushionpressures determine

11、Use5.1 This practice is intended to be a general guideline forrepetitive testing,safe conduct of tests,and accurate datacollection for inflatable restraints.Cushion overpressurizationtesting may be used for design and production validation,formanufacturing process control,for lot acceptance,or for a
12、combination thereof.5.2 This practice constitutes the conditions,apparatus,andprocedures by which inflatable restraints are commonly testedfor cushion overpressurization.It is intended to be used as aguideline in establishing a cushion specification or equivalentdocument.The practices in the specifi
