  • Load limiting webbing
    Patent number: 6071835
    Abstract: The present webbing has a force-displacement profile characterized by:(a) when the webbing is subjected to a knuckle point force in the range from about 400 pounds (about 1.8 kilonewtons) to about 900 pounds (about 4.0 kilonewtons), the webbing elongates to less than about five percent;(b) upon subjecting the webbing to greater than the knuckle point force and to less or equal to about 1,400 pounds (about 6.2 kilonewtons), the webbing elongates further to at least about ten percent; and(c) upon subjecting the webbing to greater than 1,400 pounds (about 6.2 kilonewtons), the modulus increases sharply and the webbing elongates further until the webbing breaks at a tensile strength of at least about 5,000 pounds (about 22 kilonewtons).
