25、ral requirements and conditioning 4.1 Multi purpose products If a carrier has other functions not covered in this standard, reference should be made to the relevant standard e.g. child wheeled conveyance (see EN 1888). 4.2 Order of tests Unless specified the order of testing shall be carried out in

26、the order of the clause numbers of this document. Additional samples may be used when doing the following tests: 5.1 Chemical properties 5.2 Flammability of textiles EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 6 6.6 Accessibility of fillings 4.3 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated the following tolerances shall apply for te

27、sting and test equipment. All forces shall have an accuracy of 5 %. All masses shall have an accuracy of 1 %. All dimensions shall have an accuracy of 1 mm. All time measurements shall have an accuracy of 1 s. All angles shall have an accuracy of 1. 5 Materials 5.1 Chemical properties The migration

28、of synthetic or natural elements: coating of paint, varnish, lacquer, printing ink, polymer and similar coatings, the other materials whether mass coloured or not shall comply with the following amounts. Antimony : 60 mg/kg Arsenic : 25 mg/kg Barium : 1 000 mg/kg Cadmium : 75 mg/kg Chromium : 60 mg/

29、kg Lead : 90 mg/kg Mercury : 60 mg/kg Selenium : 500 mg/kg These limits shall be checked according to the test prescribed in EN 71-3. Where a surface coated with a multi-layer of paint or similar coating, the sample shall not include the substrate. 5.2 Flammability of textiles, coated textiles, supp

30、orts and plastic coverings The rate of the spread of flame shall not exceed 30 mm/s when tested in accordance with EN 71-2. 5.3 Conditioning Any parts which are intended to be removed from the structure, shall be washed/dried or cleaned twice according to the manufacturers instructions. EN 13209-1:2

31、004 (E) 7 5.4 Shrinkage After testing in accordance with 5.3 any resulting shrinkage shall not prevent the covering from being refitted to the structure, without damaging the seams of the fabric and shall not impair the performance and use of the article. 5.5 Monofilament threads Monofilament thread

32、s shall not be used. 6 Construction 6.1 Gaps and openings There shall be no open-ended tubes, projections, holes or loose washers, speed fixings, nuts or crevices in which the childs finger or flesh could become trapped. When the carrier is assembled for use in any configuration, there shall be no g

33、aps and openings greater than 5 mm and less than 12 mm, unless the depth of penetration is less than 10 mm. Buckles, fastenings and sliders are excluded from this requirement. 6.2 Edges In order to avoid lacerations or abrasions, the surfaces shall be smooth and free from splinters and burrs. Edges

34、or components with a thickness greater than 4 mm and an internal angle of less than 120 shall have a 2 mm radius or be chamfered as given in the examples in Figure 1a) b) and c). Edges or components with a thickness less than 4 mm shall be rounded, folded, rolled or spiralled (as given in the exampl

35、e in Figure 1d); or have a protective covering as given in the example in Figure 1e). The minimum radii do not apply to small components such as hinges, brackets and catches but these shall be free of burrs and sharp edges and points. Any protective covering applied in order to meet the above specif

36、ications shall comply with the requirements for protective components specified in EN 711. EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 8 Dimensions in millimetres Figure 1 Examples for minimum radii of edges and corners 6.3 Small parts 6.3.1 Requirements Any components not intended to be detachable, which become detached w

37、hen tested in accordance with 6.3.2.2 and 6.3.2.3 shall not, fit wholly within the small parts cylinder specified in EN 71-1. Any component intended to be removable without the use of a tool shall not fit wholly within the small parts cylinder as specified in EN 71-1. 6.3.2 Test method 6.3.2.1 Appar

38、atus Means of applying forces up to at least 90 N with an accuracy of 2 N, e.g. a spring balance or a dead weight arrangement. Feeler gauge with thickness of (0,4 0,02) mm, with the end to be inserted having a radius of approximately 3 mm. EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 9 6.3.2.2 Tension test Establish if the

39、component to be tested is grippable by inserting the feeler gauge between the component and the underlying layer or body of the item at an angle between 0 and 10 from the surface using a force of (10 1) N. If the gauge can be inserted more than 2 mm the component is to be judged grippable. If the co

40、mponent is grippable, affix a suitable clamp behind the component taking care not to damage the attachment mechanism or body of the item. Apply a tensile force to the component to be tested through a clamp or by other suitable means apply a force of 90 N gradually over 5 s and maintain for 10 s. 6.3

41、.2.3 Torque test If the component can be gripped between thumb and forefinger, apply a torque gradually to the component within a period of 5 s in a clockwise direction until either a rotation of 180 from the original position has been obtained, or a torque of 0,34 Nm is reached. Maintain the maximu

42、m rotation or required torques for 10 s. Permit the test component to return to a relaxed condition. Repeat this procedure in an anti-clockwise direction. Projections, parts or assemblies that are rigidly mounted on an accessible rod or shaft designed to rotate together with the projections, parts o

43、r assemblies shall be tested with the rod or shaft clamped to prevent rotation. If a component, which is attached by a screw, becomes loosened during the application of the required torque, continue to apply the torque until the required torque is exceeded or the part disassembles or it becomes appa

44、rent that the part will not disassemble. 6.4 Cords, straps, belts and parts used as ties Cords, straps, belts and parts used as ties shall have a maximum free length of 220 mm when stretched with a force of 25 N. This requirement does not apply to the free ends of the carers attachment systems and t

45、he child restraint systems. 6.5 Folding and locking mechanisms 6.5.1 Durability of folding and locking mechanisms Locking and folding mechanisms shall continue to meet the requirements of 6.5.2 after being opened and closed 300 times. 6.5.2 Requirement Folding or locking mechanisms, shall be conside

46、red inoperable by a child if at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled: folding or locking is only possible when two independent locking mechanisms are operated simultaneously; or release of the folding or locking mechanism requires a specified minimum force of 50 N or the use of a tool

47、(e.g. spanner or screwdriver); or release of the folding or locking mechanism requires two consecutive actions, the first of which shall be maintained while the second is carried out; or EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 10 when tested with only the automatic locking mechanism(s) engaged, the application of a for

48、ce of 200 N to any part of the product (except the locking release mechanism) does not result in folding or detachment. 6.5.3 Moving parts a) There shall be no compression points which can close to less than 18 mm under the action of forces other than those of the carer setting up or folding away (e.g. spring force or gravity), unless the clearance is always less than 5 mm. b) Compression points which can close to less than 12 mm that only become accessible as the product is set up or folded away a
