Chicco Shuttle car seat is established on a steel skeleton and has a slope angle adjustment. The orthopedic estimation is close to the highest - doctors liked the correct form of a seat’s back, the modernized lateral support, a successful pillow’s profile and its sufficient length very much. The folding footboard will be very useful in a long journey - legs of your small passenger will not become numb.
But at blow, despite low head and breast overloads and the least among all sears loading by seat belts, the Italian car seat has made a mass. Frames of a high-speed video shooting have shown the reason of so low overloads – because of a decent seat’s escapement the dummy at first has hit its feet to a forward sitting back, having extinguished much kinetic energy by this blow. It threatens with feet traumas. And then “the kid” has made a sharp and very dangerous for neck head’s nod.
Maxi-Cosi Priori (Netherlands)
On the whole orthopedists liked Maxi-Cosi Priori car seat – it has a good sitting pillow and modernized sides. Setting the kid into car seat, you will see that internal safety belts don’t dangle – there are special hooks on lateral sides provided for them. But there is no any headrest which could correct an insignificant lack of a back’s profile. So, we’ve found at least one minus. To rectify this shortage there are modernized, enough soft overlays on internal belts.
At blow external belt has quickly taken a car seat - presence of the crampons rigidly fixing a belt’s strap promotes fast reaction of the inertial coil. But too low point of diagonal branch arrangement has provoked a forward escapement of the top seat’s part at blow. However, it partly reduces probability of serious neck traumas - the dummy’s head’s nod was not too sharply.
Mothercare Challenger (France)
Orthopedic surgeons have rejected the French car baby seat Mothercare Challenger. The main claim consisted in the soft overlays absence not only on internal safety belts, but also on the central lock case! As a result the plastic buckle lays directly between child’s legs. We hope, you understand what can happen even at insignificant failure.
Besides, this baby seat has very small humeral diameter of a back. It will be too tight for baby inside, and in the course of time it can lead to stoop development. Seat belt directing elements are supplied with the clips preventing straps’ sliding. Therefore at front blow Mothercare Challenger baby seat escapement was rather small. But too fast stop has caused very high overloads on a dummy. It made a strong head’s nod which in real life will inevitably lead to serious traumas of cervical vertebras.
