Hybrid iii Dummy
The Mixed Type III Crash Test Dummy - Adult Male 50th Percentile is widely used in frontal collision tests to evaluate automotive safety restraint systems. We develop this Mixed Type III dummy and other dummy types in compliance with ECE specifications. Designed with human biomechanical motion in mind, it features movable joints at the thigh, lower leg, ankle, and foot. The dummy is also suitable for testing non-automotive products such as aviation, high-speed rail, wheelchairs, medical equipment, and sports gear.

Features
The manikin's interior incorporates various metals, plastics, and rubber components, including a steel chest cavity, aluminum shoulder blades, plastic pelvic bones, and silicone skin. Additionally, numerous precision instruments such as accelerometers, potentiometers, and pressure sensors are installed throughout its structure to record the forces exerted on the manikin during collisions.
Head and Neck:
The skull and cranial vault are constructed as a single aluminum alloy unit, covered with either soft skin or hard synthetic resin. The neck combines rubber and aluminum alloy structures, with a central communication cable that simulates the dynamic structure, rotational flexibility, and extension feedback of the human neck.
Upper Torso:
The high-strength six-rib steel cage in the chest cavity incorporates flexible elastic material to simulate human chest rebound characteristics under external force. The ribs include anatomically correct left and right ribs, with the sternum and spinal column riveted to the back.
The sternum connects the front ribs to a sternum bending/rotation potentiometer. The angle between the neck and upper torso determines the cervical spine curve assembly, which integrates a 6-axis neck sensor. Two clavicles and clavicle connectors secure the entire scapula and shoulder girdle linkage.
Lower Torso:
A cylindrical rubber lumbar spine assembly enables sitting and standing like a real human. An optional lumbar transport unit secures it to the pelvis. The skin covering the pelvic periphery and buttocks is made of infused soft rubber/ Polyurethane soft and elastic skin is applied to the pelvis periphery and buttocks. Leg bones with optional spherical joints that limit movement mimic human leg characteristics, enabling free flexion, extension, and rotation. Thigh bones, lower leg bones, and ankle bones can be fitted with detection instruments to predict leg bone fractures and assess knee ligament conditions and injuries. Feet and ankles simulate heel and ankle joints to achieve movement.
