10、5 Test Required Information. The following information shall be provided to the testing organization: seat fore/aft design position, seat back design position, and Global Subsystem Technical Specification (GSSTS) specified weight. 3.6 Personnel/Skills. 3.6.1 General Motors Design Release Engineer/D

11、esigning Engineer (DRE/DE). 3.6.2 General Motors Validation Engineer. 3.6.3 Testing Organizations Test Engineer. 3.6.4 Testing Organizations Test Technician. 4 Procedure 4.1 Preparation. 4.1.1. Visual Inspection. The DRE/DE will visually inspect the test for correct part numbers, quality of frame we

12、lds, proper fit and assembly and the presence of all required parts. 4.1.2 Mounting. Mount the seat storage box on the appropriate mounting blocks. Include mounting spacers if specified for installation. 4.1.3 Weights. If specified in the GSSTS, introduce a weight in the box for the durability test.

13、 4.2 Conditions. 4.2.1 Environmental Conditions. The durability test may be performed at room temperature or temperatures representative of vehicle profile. Validation Engineer to use engineering judgment based on materials used. Durability test shall be conducted in temperature of -30 C and 70 C re

14、spectively. 4.2.2 Test Conditions. Deviations from the requirements of this standard shall have been agreed upon. Such requirements shall be specified on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc. 4.3 Instructions. 4.3.1 Storage Box Durability Test. 4.3.1.1 Using the load measuring device,

15、 e.g., push-pull gauge, measure the opening, closing and lever operating effort before durability test. 4.3.1.2 Adjust the storage box from the foremost to rearmost position at a speed of 4 CPM and then from the rearmost to foremost points until the stopper is touched in parallel with the guide. Con

16、tinue until it reaches 3000 cycles at room temperature, 500 cycles at 70 C, and another 500 cycles at -30 C respectively. Before starting a low and high temperature test, the test piece should be soaked for four hours at the test temperature. 4.3.1.3 Using the load measuring device, measure the open

17、ing, closing and lever operating effort after durability test in the temperature ranges specified in the GSSTS. Operational noises before, during and after the durability test shall be monitored and documented. 4.3.2 Storage Box Inside Strength Test (Drop Opening Test). 4.3.2.1 Fix the storage box v

18、ertically at the same attachment points as in vehicle, as shown in Figure 1 so that the front side faces down. 4.3.2.2 Put the weight of 500 g into the tray and fix it as shown in Figure 1 so that it cannot move during free falling. 4.3.2.3 After exposing the tray to -30 C for 4 h, unlock it inside

19、the -30 C chamber to drop to the full stroke (see Figure 1). 4.3.3 Storage Box Stopper Strength Test. 4.3.3.1 With the tray full open, apply the load specified in the GSSTS at the position agreed with the Design Release Engineer (DRE) (usually the center of the storage box). 4.3.3.2 Measure the load
