ASTM F2276-2010(2015) Standard Specification for Fitness Equipment《健身器材的标准规格》.pdf

1、Designation: F2276 10 (Reapproved 2015) An American National StandardStandard Specification forFitness Equipment1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2276; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe goal of this specification is to promote proper design and manufacturing practices for stationaryfitness equipmen

3、t. Through these specifications this standard aims to assist designers and manufac-turers in producing functional, safe products under proper operations. This standard specifies safetyrequirements that are generally applicable to all stationary fitness equipment. For specific types offitness equipme

4、nt, these requirements shall be supplemented or superseded by the requirements ofspecific standards that have been issued to cover these specific types or groups of fitness products.Where specific standards exist, this standard should be used in conjunction with the other standards.Special care is r

5、equired in applying this standard alone to equipment for which no specific standardexists.The equipment user must recognize, however, that a standard alone will not necessarily preventinjuries. Like other physical activities, exercise involving fitness equipment involves the risk of injury,particula

6、rly if the equipment is used improperly.1. Scope1.1 This specification establishes parameters for the designand manufacture of fitness equipment as defined in 3.1.9.1.2 It is intended that these fitness products be used in anindoor setting or environment.1.3 It is the intent of this specification to

7、 specify productsfor use by individuals age 13 and above.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theres

8、ponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
