WHIPLASH PROTECTION SYSTEM
ABSTRACT
If you are involved in a rear-end car accident, statistics tell us that you have a one in four chance of sustaining a whiplash injury. Whiplash is caused when the head is very quickly jerked backward and forward at the moment of collision, resulting in damage to the muscles and ligaments in the neck. It is a long-overlooked injury which causes pain and misery for thousands of people each year. For many years, the fact that it was difficult to detect physically whiplash injury and whiplash sufferers were dismissed as being hypochondriacs or malingerers, and could not get any treatment. So what can be done to prevent some of the estimated 200,000 whiplash injuries that occur in car accidents each year?
WHIPS are an integrated safety system for avoiding neck injuries and are one of the most effective in the market. In the event of a powerful rear end collision the backrests and head restraints in the front seats follow the movements of the seat occupant’s body. The occupants are pulled tightly into the contours of the orthopedic designed seats and headrests, limiting movement of the neck and back, which cause neck and back injuries to occur. Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is designed to help protect occupants in the event of a rear-end collision.
