Foreword

The full technical content of this standard is mandatory.

This standard replaces GB 11552-1999 "Passenger car - Internal protrusions".

The technical content of this standard adopts, through modification, the ECE

R21 "Regulations on the certification of internal fittings of passenger cars"

(revision 2) and all the supplements and errata published in January 2003, both

in English and French.

This standard was redrafted according to ECE R21.Appendix A lists a

comparison between the clause number of this standard and the clause number

of ECE R21.

modified when ECE R21 is adopted.

The main differences between this standard and ECE R21 and their reasons

are as follows.

- DELETE the relevant content of Appendix 5 "Determination program of 3D

H-point" of ECE R21.The content related to this is implemented with

reference to the contents in Appendix C of GB 11551-2003, which avoids

errors in actual operation due to differences in standard terms.

- DELETE clause 3 "Application for certification", clause 4 "Certification",

clause 6 "Change and extension of certification of vehicle model", clause 7

"Production consistency", clause 8 "Processing of production

inconsistency", clause 9 "Official suspension", clause 10 "Names and

addresses of competent authorities and testing organizations", Appendix 2

"Notices", Appendix 3 "Arrangement of certification marks" from ECE R21,

considering the differences between the standard system and the

regulatory system.

For ease of use, the following editorial changes have been made to ECE R21.

- CHANGE "this regulation" into "this standard";

- ADD the informative Appendix A.

The main differences between this standard and GB 11552-1999 "Passenger

car - Internal protrusions" are as the following.

- CHANGE the scope of the standard (change from car to category M1

automobiles, add the requirements for the electrical operation of windows,

roof-panel systems and partition systems) (clause 1 of this version);

- ADD some terms and definitions (3.2, 3.10 ~ 3.18 of this version);

- ADD the electrical operation of windows, roof-panel systems and partition

systems (4.8 of this version);

- ADD the informative Appendix A "Comparison between the clause number

of this standard and the clause number of ECE R21" (Appendix A of this

version);

- ADD the normative Appendix B "Confirmation of dynamically determined

head collision zones" (Appendix B of this version);

- ADD the normative Appendix E "Typical position of columnar test bars in

skylights and window 'openings" (Appendix E of this version);

- According to the revision of ECE R21, MODIFY the impact speed (G.4.2.1

of this version).

Appendix B, Appendix C, Appendix E, Appendix F, Appendix G, Appendix H of

this standard are normative appendixes. Appendix A and Appendix D are

informative appendixes.

For newly-certified vehicle models, this standard has been implemented since

January 1, 2012; for vehicle models on production, this standard has been

implemented since January 1, 2013.
