4、cludes safety requirements within the meaning of the Gerte- und Produktsicherheitsgesetz (GPSG) (German Equipment and Consumer Goods Safety Law) and in connection with European legislation (EC Machinery Directive), which has been implemented by national legislation. This standard has been prepared b

5、y Technical Committee CEN/TC 122 “Ergonomics” (Secretariat: DIN, Germany) in connection with the amended EC Machinery Directive. The responsible German bodies involved in its preparation were the Normenausschuss Ergonomie (Ergonomics Standards Committee) and the Normenausschuss Maschinenbau (Mechnic

This standard concretizes the basic requirements set out in Annex I of the EU Machinery Directive 98/37/EC (valid until 28 December 2009) and the new EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC which become

7、s applicable on 29 December 2009 relating to machinery to be placed on the EEA market, with the intent of simplifying the means of proving conformity with such requirements. Once this standard is designated a harmonized standard in the Official Journal of the European Union, a manufacturer applying

8、this standard may assume compliance with the requirements of the Machinery Directive (the so-called “presumption of conformity”). Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 614-1:2006-07 as follows: a) Inclusion of Annex ZB (informative) “Relationship between this European Standard and the Essenti

9、al Requirements of EU Directive 2006/42/EC”. b) (German version only) The translation of the term “workspace” (3.1) has been changed to “Arbeitsbereich” (previously “Arbeitsraum”).

26、ion Ergonomically designed work systems enhance safety, improve human working and living conditions and counteract adverse effects on human health. Also they usually improve the operator-machine system performance and reliability. In this European Standard the term “ergonomics“ refers to a multidisc

27、iplinary field of science and its application. Applying ergonomics to the design of work systems, especially where the design of machinery is concerned, ensures that human capabilities, skills, limitations and needs are taken into account. The work system includes operators, job design, work equipme

28、nt (e.g. machinery), work space, work environment, work process and the interactions between them. It can vary in complexity from a workshop with a single operator using hand held equipment to a process plant and its operators. Good design takes into account how the operator is expected to interact

29、with the work equipment and how the work equipment fits into the system as a whole. This is particularly important the more the work equipment is interdependent on other components of the system. In its whole complexity, the working system is described in generic standards (e.g. EN ISO 6385). Compli

30、ance with harmonised standards prepared by CEN/CENELEC enables manufacturers and suppliers to meet requirements of European legislation. EN ISO 12100-1 and EN ISO 12100-2 contain the concepts and general principles to guide designers in achieving safety for machinery for occupational and private pur

31、poses. Ergonomic principles can be incorporated into the design process by following this standard. In this way both the technical design and ergonomic principles are considered at the same time. The aim to enhance the health, safety and well-being of workers is reached by systematically minimising

32、the risks according to !EN ISO 12100“. EN 13861 provides information concerning applicable ergonomic B-type standards related to specific hazards. This standard is one of the European Standards covering specific topics identified in EN ISO 12100-1 and EN ISO 12100-2 as important to the safety of mac

33、hinery. DIN EN 614-1:2009-06 EN 614-1:2006+A1:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard establishes the ergonomic principles to be followed during the process of design of machinery. This European Standard applies to the interactions between operators and machinery when installing, operating, adjust

34、ing, maintaining, cleaning, dismantling, repairing or transporting equipment, and outlines the principles to be followed in taking the health, safety and well-being of the operator into account. This European Standard provides a framework within which the range of more specific ergonomics standards

35、and other related standards relevant to machinery design should be applied. The ergonomic principles given in this European Standard apply to all ranges of human abilities and characteristics to ensure safety, health and well-being and overall system performance. Information will need to be interpre

36、ted to suit the intended use. NOTE Although the principles in this European Standard are orientated towards machinery for occupational use, they are also applicable to equipment and machinery for private use.
