The responsible German body involved in its preparation was DIN-Normenausschuss Holzwirtschaft und Mbel (DIN Standards Committee Timber and Furni

6、ture), Working Committee NA 042-05-04 AA “Requirements of outdoor furniture, Mirror Committee to CEN/TC 207/WG 4”. In Clause 5, this standard includes safety requirements within the meaning of the Produktsicherheitsgesetz (ProdSG) (German Product Safety Act). Where this standard has been identified

7、by the Ausschuss fr Produktsicherheit (German Committee for Product Safety) and reference to it has been published in the Gemeinsames Ministerialblatt (German Joint Ministerial Gazette) by the Bundesanstalt fr Arbeitsschutz und Arbeitsmedizin (BAuA) (German Federal Institute for Occupational Safety

8、and Health), it is to be presumed that outdoor furniture and tables which comply with this standard fulfil the relevant health and safety requirements. Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 581-1:2006-05 as follows: a) a clarification of the definitions (camping, domestic and contract use) ha

9、s been taken out of Annex B and put in Clause 3 (which replaces the former Annex B); b) test probes and test methods have been replaced; requirements for edges and corners have been modified to take into account accessible parts during use (accessible parts of seating and tables have been defined);

10、c) tubular components have been defined; requirements for gaps and holes have been removed; d) Annex B (informative) has been included as a rationale to explain the risks covered with the requirements in Clause 5.

DIN EN 581-1:2017-07 EN 581-1:2017 (E) 4 1 Scope This part of EN 581 specifies the general safety requirem

26、ents for outdoor seating and tables for camping, domestic and contract for use by adults, without regard to materials, design/construction or manufacturing processes. It does not apply to seating for spectator facilities. It does not include requirements for the durability of upholstery materials, c

27、astors, reclining and tilting mechanisms and seat height adjustment mechanisms. Mechanical safety requirements are covered by EN 581-2 for seating and EN 581-3 for tables. Annex A (informative) is a schematic presentation of requirements and conditions concerning shear and squeeze points. Annex B (i

28、nformative) is a rationale concerning fingers injury. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

34、18 +mm with hemispherical ends, see Figure 1. Key 1 00,17+mm, 0,1012 +mm and 0,1018 +mm Figure 1 Measuring probes 5 Safety requirements 5.1 General In order to avoid physical injury when the product is in its intended position of use, all edges and corners shall be rounded, chamfered or otherwise pr

35、otected. This applies to: Seating: Edges of the seat, back rest and arm rests and any part of the bottom surface of the seat at a distance less than 120 mm from any edge, where a finger can commonly access; Tables: Table tops, any part of the underside of the top surface at a distance less than 500

36、mm from any edge below the table, where a knee and/or an arm can commonly access. All other parts shall be free from burrs, sharp edges and sharp points. Movable and adjustable parts shall be designed so that injuries and inadvertent operation are avoided. It shall not be possible for any load beari

37、ng part of the furniture to come loose unintentionally. All parts which are lubricated to assist sliding shall be designed to protect users from lubricant stains when in normal use. 5.2 Tubular components There shall be no accessible holes in the ends of tubular components with a diameter between 7

38、mm to 12 mm and with a depth more or equal to 10 mm. The bottom of tubular legs in contact with the floor shall be closed or capped, however, holes in them are allowed as long as they are not between 7 and 12 mm. These requirements shall be assessed using the test probes (Clause 4). 5.3 Shear and sq

39、ueeze points 5.3.1 Shear and squeeze points when erecting, adjusting and folding away Unless 5.3.2 or 5.3.3 are applicable, shear and squeeze points that are created only during erecting, adjusting or folding away are acceptable providing the user can be assumed to be in control of his/her movements

40、 and to be able to cease applying the force immediately on experiencing pain. 5.3.2 Shear and squeeze points under the influence of powered mechanisms There shall be no accessible shear and squeeze points created by parts of the furniture operated by powered mechanisms, e.g. mechanical springs and g

41、as lifts. This requirement shall be assessed using the test probes (Clause 4). DIN EN 581-1:2017-07 EN 581-1:2017 (E) 6 5.3.3 Shear and squeeze points during use There shall be no accessible shear and squeeze points created by loads applied during normal use. Shear and squeeze points are not accepta

42、ble if there is a risk of injury created by the weight of the user during normal movements and actions, e.g. attempting to move the seating by lifting the seat or by adjusting the backrest. This requirement shall be assessed using the test probes (Clause 4). For loungers, the loads applied during no

43、rmal use are the loads used for the following mechanical tests in Table 1 of EN 581-2:2015: Test 2: Additional seat and leg rest static load; Test 3: Seat and back durability; Test 4: Additional seat durability; Test 5: Durability on back rest mechanism. For other seating, the loads applied during n

44、ormal use are the loads used for the following mechanical tests in Table 2 of EN 581-2:2015: Test 2: Seat front edge static; Test 3: Combined seat and back durability; Test 4: Durability test on seating with a multi-position back. For tables, the loads applied during normal use are the loads used fo

45、r the following mechanical tests in Table 1 of EN 581-3:2007N2): Test 1: Vertical static load on main surface; Test 4: Vertical static load on ancillary surface; Test 5: Horizontal durability test. 6 Test report The test report shall include at least the following information: a) reference to this p
