3、sumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).Incidents identified by the CPSC and addressed in this standard include asphyxiation due toentrapment in mesh drop side units left with a side down, strangulation by entanglement on protrudinghardware, strangulation by button entrapment in mesh openings, strang

4、ulation due to failure of thecenter hinge on a top rail, collapse or failure of the locking devices, collapse of the floor or sides, andchoking on vinyl bitten from the top rail. This specification also addresses wooden non-full-size cribinjuries or deaths due to entanglement on corner post extensio

5、ns, dislodgment of slats resulting frombreakage or failure of glue joints, collapse of mattress support, detachment of screws, dislodgementof teething rails, and entanglement on cords or strings.This specification is not intended to cover non-full-size cribs/play yards that are either blatantlymisus

6、ed or abused. This specification is written within current state-of-the-art of non-full-sizecrib/play yard technology and is intended to be updated if substantive information becomes availablethat necessitates additional requirements or justifies revision of existing requirements.1. Scope1.1 This co

7、nsumer safety specification establishes testingrequirements for structural integrity and performance require-ments for non-full-size cribs/play yards, both rigid sided andmesh/fabric assemblies. It also provides requirements forlabeling and instructional material. The term unit or productwill refer

8、to a non-full-size crib/play yard.1.2 This specification covers a framed enclosure with a floormade for the purpose of providing sleeping and playingaccommodations for a child who cannot climb out and is lessthan 35 in. (890 mm) in height. It also covers bassinet,changing table, or similar accessori

9、es to a non-full sizecrib/play yard. These accessories shall also comply with theapplicable requirements of ASTM standards addressing thoseaccessories. For example, a changing table that attaches to aplay yard shall also comply with the applicable requirements inSpecification F2388. This specificati

10、on does not cover inflat-able products.1.3 No product produced after the approval date of thisconsumer safety specification shall, either by label or othermeans, indicate compliance with this specification unless itconforms to all applicable requirements contained herein,before and after all testing

36、age bags, (2) canopies that have no rigidframe members running alongside any top rail, and (3) acces-sories that attach only to another attachment and not directly tothe non-full size crib/play yard.3.1.1.1 DiscussionRationale: Definition applies only toaccessories that attach to non-full size crib/

37、play yard, notaccessories that attach to bassinet or changing table. Thiswould exclude a changing table that attaches only to a bassinet,since a bassinet occupant is not able to push up on hands andknees, and therefore is not at risk from an entrapment hazard.3.1.2 accessory attachment components, n

42、wasdeleted because telescoping sides are really covered under thedefinition of movable sides. Dropgates are products that pivotonly. For reference, the definition of movable side in ConsumerSafety Specification F406 is “top portion of an otherwisestationary side that is intended to move with respect
