2、e case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This safety specification covers the components, theassembly, and the use of consumer
3、trampolines.1.2 This specification is delimited in its application totrampolines of (1) a minimum bed size of 3300 in.2(21 300cm2), (2) a minimum height of 20 in. (51 cm), (3) intended forthe purpose of continuous, vertical jumping activities and (4)intended for consumer use.1.3 This specification i
4、s intended (1) to reduce the demon-strated hazards associated with the use of trampolines byconsumers; (2) for trampolines used in a home environment bya single user; and (3) not to apply to institutional trampolinesor trampolines intended for use on water. Trampolines thatadhere to this specificati
5、on are not recommended for use bychildren under six years of age.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.5 This standard do

38、 with Test Method F355using a 20-lb (9-kg), 20-in.2(129 cm2) round, flat headdropped from a distance of 2 ft (61 cm).6.2 Drop TestA drop test will be performed on the framepadding attached to a trampoline and assembled in accordancewith the manufacturers instructions. The drop test shall use theequi
39、pment and procedures described in 6.2.5 and 6.2.6.Asaresult of the test:6.2.1 The impactor shall not tear the cover or completelypenetrate the padding;6.2.2 Seams of the padding shall not separate;6.2.3 The pad attachments shall not separate from the pad orframe; and6.2.4 The padding shall continue
40、to cover the frame,springs, and frame hardware when the impactor is removedfrom the surface of the padding.6.2.5 Drop Test Weight and Impactor ShapeThe dropweight will consist of a 23-kg (50-lb) mass with a woodenimpacting surface. See Fig. 2. The edges of the impact surfaceare radiused and the heel
41、 and toe of the surface are contouredas shown in Fig. 2.6.2.6 Drop Test ProcedureThe impactor shall be droppedin a guided free-fall to contact the surface of the padding. Thesurface of the impactor shall be flat and parallel (within 5) tothe surface of the padding on the initial contact with the pad
42、.The impactor shall be dropped on the portion of the paddingcovering the springs. The impactor shall be centered to impactat a location midway between the inner edge of the frame railand the edge of the trampoline bed. The impactor shall beraised to a height of 12 in. (tolerance -0/+5 in.) (305 mm-0
43、/+13 mm) above the surface of the padding. The impactorshall be dropped at a minimum of two times near each of thefollowing locations, consistent with the required spacing cen-tered between the springs:6.2.6.1 Midway between attachment points,FIG. 1 Saddle Welded Tee FittingF381 1136.2.6.2 Adjacent
44、to an attachment point,6.2.6.3 At a pad seam, and6.2.6.4 Above a leg.6.2.7 After the first impact, the impactor shall be raised toits initial drop height. The results of the test with regard to padintegrity and coverage will be assessed. The padding shall notbe disturbed after removal of the impacto
45、r. The impactor isdropped a second time and the results recorded.6.3 Padding Attachment System TestsThe test describedin 6.3.1 is intended to measure the ability of the paddingattachment system to keep the frame pad in place whensubjected to typical forces imposed by users. The test in 6.3.1simulate
46、s a user climbing onto the trampoline by holding on tothe edge of the padding and climbing onto the bed of thetrampoline. The test is conducted on a fully assembled tram-poline with padding attached, according to the manufacturersinstructions.6.3.1 Padding Retention:6.3.1.1 Secure the fully assemble
47、d trampoline to the floor orbrace it to prevent movement of the trampoline as a result ofthe applied forces.6.3.1.2 Place the trampoline pad pull fixture shown in Fig. 3with the fixture hooks facing down on the trampoline pad. Thefixture hook opening may be either of fixed thickness, adjust-able to
48、the padding thickness, or V-shaped.6.3.1.3 Fixed thickness hooks shall be the thickness of thepadding 618 in. (63 mm). Adjustable fixture hooks shall beadjusted to the thickness of the pad. Adjustable hooks shall beadjusted to the thickness of the padding 618 in. (63 mm).V-shaped hooks shall not com
49、press the padding thickness morethan18 in. (3 mm).6.3.1.4 Attach the fixture to the pad. Grasp the insidediameter edge of the frame pad as shown in Fig. 4.6.3.1.5 Using the outboard hook of the fixture, graduallyapply a horizontal force of 85 6 5 lbf (380 6 20 N) parallel tothe plane of the mat and radially outward from the center of thetrampoline. Apply the force at each of three locations shown inFig. 4 such that: (1) a pad attachment tie down is centeredbetween the fixture arms, (2) the fixture is centered betweenadjacent pad attachment tie d
