19、 for and differ from user to user. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 10/06/2010 03:08, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIBS EN 15638:2009EN 15638:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This standard applies to ice skates intended for users with a body mass up to 100 kg for ice skating excluding the field o

20、f sports competitions. It specifies the minimum safety requirements for ice skates as well as requirements for test methods, marking and information supplied by the manufacturer to reduce the risk of injuries to both third parties and the user during their normal use. 2 Normative references The foll

This requirement is consider

26、ed to be fulfilled, if the correct functioning of the ice skate is not impeded by broken, disconnected or loosened binding elements after the tests specified in Clause 5. 4.2.2 Attachment of the blade in the blade holder If blade and blade holder form a unit, it shall be so designed that when tested

27、 according Clause 5 the blade neither loosens nor disconnects. 4.2.3 Linearity of the runner The runner of the ice skate shall not have a deviation from linearity of more than 0,5 mm over a length of 150 mm.

29、ng normal use. This requirement is considered to be fulfilled if the correct functioning of the ice skate is not impeded by any breaking, disconnection or loosening of the runner after the tests specified in Clause 5. 4.2.6 Surface condition All protruding components and edges on the ice skate which

30、 can come into contact with body parts during normal use shall be deburred or shall be designed so as to prevent any injuries. Protruding fastening elements shall not stand out by more than the diameter of the fastening element. 4.2.7 Condition of the blade 4.2.7.1 Hardness The blade shall have an e

31、ffective hardening depth of at least 2,5 mm. The hardness value shall be at least 52 HRC on all hardening depth. These requirements do not apply, if the blade is not intended for regrinding. 4.2.7.2 Grinding (sharpening) The blade shall be grinded so as to be functional. The necessity to regrind or

32、replace the blade shall be indicated in the information supplied by the manufacturer. 4.2.7.3 Teeth If a blade is equipped with teeth, the bottom teeth shall only come into contact with the ice, when the ice skate has an inclination of at least 10 towards the front, measured at the tangent of the ru

33、nner at point A. See Figure 2. Key A l Figure 2 Ice contact of the bottom tooth 4.2.7.4 Shape of blade end The end of the blade shall either be rounded or shaped in such a manner that there is no angle smaller than 90.

35、nation. Unless otherwise specified, the ice skates shall be conditioned and tested either at a temperature of (23 2) C and a relative humidity of (50 5) % or at a temperature of (20 2) C and a relative humidity of (65 5) %. 5.2 Test specimen A new test specimen shall be used for each test in accorda

36、nce with 5.4 and 5.5. 5.3 Last The last used for the tests in accordance with 5.4 and 5.5 shall fulfil the following requirements: a) it shall be made of non-flexible material; b) its size and fit shall be appropriate for the test specimen; c) it shall be possible to firmly attach the ice skate to t

37、he last by use of the binding elements of the skate. 5.4 Connection of the runner to the boot The ice skate is mounted in a universal test machine as shown in Figure 3, with the force being applied into the boot by a last as defined in 5.3. The ice skate shall be positioned on a last in accordance w
