WHIPLASH PROTECTION SYSTEM ABSTRACT Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is designed to help protect occupants in the event of a rear-end collision.  It can be concluded that seats aimed at preventing whiplash injuries in general also lower the risk in real-life crashes. Furthermore it can be concluded that results from existing consumer crash test programs for whiplash correlate with real life injury outcome. WHIPS equipped seat, the entire backrest is designed to help protect the front occupant's neck in a case of a rear impact. WHIPS equipped seats have a piece of metal inside the backrest that absorbs energy in case of rear end collision, reclining the headrest a few centimeters.

The seat, which has new design concept for reduction in whiplash injuries, allows less motion between head and torso in the modified dummy sled tests, and also allows less motion in volunteer sl...

    Drawing has been an integral part of engineering for many years. It is the link between the engineering design and manufacturing. Information regarding the size, shape, dimensions, tolerances and other manufacturing/construction details are quickly communicated to the production construction personnel in the form of drawings prepared according to prescribed drafting standards. These drafting standards are specified for understanding and interpreting the drawings in the same way by various designers and manufacturing personnel. An engineering drawing may be prepared by means of conventional tools such as drafting board, pencil or ink on the tracing paper or alternatively, with the aid of a computer. The method of preparing the drawings by computers is known as Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) or Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD). Concept of computer aided drafting Computer aided drafting is the creation, storage and manipulation of models of objects and their ...
