19、at contains the occupant.4. Calibration and Standardization4.1 All testing shall be conducted on a concrete floor thatmay be covered with18 in. (3 mm) thick vinyl floor covering,unless test instructs differently.4.2 The product shall be completely assembled in accor-dance with the manufacturers inst
20、ructions.4.3 No testing shall be conducted within 48 h of manufac-ture.4.4 The product to be tested shall be at an ambient tempera-ture of 73 6 9F (23 6 5C) for at least one hour beforetesting.All testing shall be conducted in this temperature range.4.5 All testing required by this consumer safety s
21、pecifica-tion shall be conducted on the same unit in the order presentedin this specification.5. Performance Requirements5.1 Prior to or immediately after testing to this consumersafety specification, the bedside sleeper must be tested to eitherConsumer Safety Specification F406 or Consumer SafetySp
22、ecification F2194, or both, as designated by the manufac-turer, based on the products use. The manufacturer mustdetermine which product safety specifications are designated.Multi-mode products must be tested to each designated stan-dard. When testing to Consumer Safety Specification F406 andConsumer
23、 Safety Specification F2194 the unit shall be freestanding, and not be secured to the test platform as dictatedelsewhere in this standard. At the manufacturers option, adifferent test specimen may be evaluated in the bedside sleeperstandard testing.5.2 When the product is secured to the Test Platfor
24、m 2 from7.1.2 of Consumer Safety Specification F2085, per the manu-facturers recommended method, there shall be no more than12in. (13 mm) separation from the bed measured at any pointalong the length of the line of contact between the product andthe test platform.5.3 Product Disengagement:5.3.1 The
25、bedside sleeper shall not separate from the testplatform more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) at any point of attachment tothe test platform when tested in accordance with 6.1.1-6.1.3.5.3.2 The bedside sleeper may separate from the test plat-form more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) during application of the forcein 6.1.4
26、but shall not remain separated more than 1 in. (2.5 cm)after removal of the force.5.4 The bedside sleeper shall have a barrier around theentire perimeter of the occupant retention space. If a bedsidesleeper is equipped with a side or end portion which is loweror partially lowers by any means, the he
27、ight of the side rail inthe lowest position shall be no less than 4 in. (10.2 cm) whenmeasured from the top of the uncompressed bedside sleepermattress to the top of the lowered side rail, when the mattresssupport is in its highest position.5.4.1 Four-Inch Nest RationaleThe center of gravity(CG) of
28、a child lying down on his/her side is roughly thecenterline of the body. Since maximum shoulder breadth for 3to 5 month olds is 21.8 cm (8.6 in.) (Snyder, 1977), half of thatis 10.9 cm (4.3 in.). Also, maximum hip breadth for the sameage range is 18.2 cm (7.2 in.), half of which is 9.1 cm (3.6 in.).
29、Assuming that the CG lies approximately along the centerlineof the body and the child is laying with one side flat on themattress, the CG will likely lie roughly between 9 cm and 11cm above the mattress.5.5 If a bedside sleeper is equipped with a side or endportion which partially lowers by any mean
30、s, it shall remainengaged and operative after testing as follows:5.5.1 Each single-action locking or latching device that isprovided to prevent folding shall require a minimum force of10 lbf (45 N) to activate the release mechanism when tested inaccordance with 6.2.5.5.2 Each double-action locking o
31、r latching device that isprovided to prevent folding shall require two distinct andseparate actions for release. There are no force requirementsfor double-action locking or latching devices.5.6 The bedside sleeper must provide a means to be securedto an adult bed and the top rail designed to be adja
32、cent to theadult bed shall be at or below the acceptable adult bed heightrange specified in the instructional literature.6. Test Methods6.1 Product Disengagement Test Method:6.1.1 Assemble the bedside sleeper in the manufacturersrecommended use position(s) utilizing Test Platform 2 fromConsumer Safe
33、ty Specification F2085, subsection 7.1.2. Thefoundation of Test Platform 2 shall be placed in a commonmetal bed frame.6.1.2 Apply 25 lbf (111 N) to the midpoint of a horizontalcross member closest in height to the attachment means on thebedside sleeper structure (manufacturer illustration), and in a
34、direction most likely to dislodge the bedside sleeper from thetest platform. The load shall be applied througha2by2in.(50by 50 mm) wood block gradually over 5 s and held for 10 s.Measure the maximum separation of the product from the topof the mattress of Test Platform 2 while the force is beingappl
35、ied.F2906 1126.1.3 Apply 25 lbf (111 N) to one outside corner of theBedside Sleeper structure closest to Test Platform 2 (manufac-turer illustration). Apply the force to the structure perpendicu-lar to the length of the bed within 2 in. (50 mm) of the topsurface of Test Platform 2 and in a direction
36、 most likely todislodge the bedside sleeper from the test platform. The loadshall be applied througha2by2in.(50by50mm)wood blockgradually over 5 s and held for 10 s. Measure the separation ofthe product from Test Platform 2 at the height of the top of themattress on the bed while the force is being
37、applied. Repeat onthe other outside corner of the products structure closest toTest Platform 2.6.1.4 Apply a 50 lbf (225 N) to each of the previously testedlocations without adjusting the product. Apply the force over aperiod of 5 s. After removing the force, measure the maximumseparation of the pro
38、duct from the Test Platform 2 at the heightof the top of the mattress.6.1.4.1 Product Disengagement RationaleTests areneeded to insure product integrity and that a bedside sleeperproduct remains secured to the adult bed during foreseeable useand misuse of the product. The 25 lbf tests represent them
39、aximum forces that an infant could apply to the product whilelocated inside of the sleeping area. The 50 lbf tests representthe maximum forces that an adult may exert on the bedsidesleeper product by rolling into the product while sleeping orsiblings pulling on the unit while attached to an adult be
40、d. Testforces include a safety factor of 2 times the force.6.2 Folding Latch Test MethodWith the product in themanufacturers recommended use position, gradually apply aforce of 10 lbf (45 N) to the locking mechanism in the directiontending to unlock it.7. Marking and Labeling7.1 All bedside sleeper
41、products shall comply with themarking and labeling requirements of either Consumer SafetySpecification F406 or Consumer Safety Specification F2194,orboth, as designated by the manufacturer.7.2 In addition to the requirements of 7.1, all bedsidesleeper products must include the marking and labeling i
