32、ually clean and free of infestation. The manufacturer/importer/retailer shall provide verification that accessible materials and surfaces meet the relevant requirements of EN 71-3. 5 Construction 5.1 General The requirements apply to a high chair assembled and erected in accordance with the manufact

33、urers instructions. If parts of the high chair are designed to be removable (e.g. a tray or a footrest), the requirements apply to the high chair with and without these part(s). BS EN 14988-1:2006+A1:2012 EN 14988-1:2006+A1:2012 (E)8 Connecting screws for direct fastening, e.g. self tapping screws,

34、shall not be used for the assembly of any component that is designed to be removed or loosened when dismantling the high chair for the purpose of transportation or storage. Exposed edges and protruding parts shall be rounded or chamfered and free from burrs and sharp edges. 5.2 Holes, gaps and openi

35、ngs With the exception of all parts of the high chair below the under-surface of the seat, the integral harness and the waist belt, there shall be no holes, gaps or openings between 7 mm and 12 mm accessible when the child is seated, which are deeper than 10 mm, when tested in accordance with !EN 14

36、988-2:2006+A1:2012“, clause 6.6.2. With the exception of the entrance to the seat unit and the two openings for the childs legs to pass through, there shall be no holes, gaps or openings above the seat surface which allows the small torso probe to pass through when tested according to !EN 14988-2:20

37、06+A1:2012“, clause 6.6.2. 5.3 Moving parts The requirements of this clause do not apply to locking mechanisms. To avoid the risk of shearing and crushing, shear and compression points shall be avoided. If shear and compression points cannot be eliminated for functional reasons, then the conditions

38、for individual cases in 5.3.1, 5.3.2 and 5.3.3 shall be applied. 5.3.1 Shear and squeeze points when setting up and folding away Shear and squeeze points that are accessible only when the product is being set up or folded away are permitted if they are not under the influence of a powered mechanism.

39、 5.3.2 Shear and squeeze points under the influence of powered mechanism If shear and squeeze points are created by parts operated by spring force or other sources of energy, the distance between moving parts shall not be less than 18 mm unless the distance is always less than 5 mm when tested accor

40、ding to !EN 14988-2:2006+A1:2012“,clause 6.6.1. 5.3.3 Shear and squeeze points under the influence of body weight or other external forces When tested in accordance with !EN 14988-2:2006+A1:2012“, clause 6.6.1, any part of the product which can fold or be detached shall be locked to avoid release by

41、 the child using the product, by another child or by unintentional action by an adult. Unintentional movement is ruled out if: a) locking mechanism is automatically engaged and the load has a closing effect on the locking mechanism; or b) at least two independent locking mechanisms are provided for

42、the movable part or system; or c) locking mechanisms under load cannot be released unintentionally. When the product has been deployed for use, there shall be no accessible squeeze points which can be closed to less than 12 mm when tested according to !EN 14988-2:2006+A1:2012“ clause 6.6.2.

44、e deployment To avoid the hazard due to incomplete deployment, either: a) weight of the child using the product shall act to prevent the folding; or b) at least one locking mechanism shall engage automatically when the product is deployed for use. ! 5.4.3 Unintentional folding of the high chair Unin

45、tentional folding of the high chair shall be avoided. This requirement is fulfilled if: a) at least one locking mechanism requires a minimum force of 50 N before and after test in accordance with EN 14988-2:2006+A1:2012, 6.3, or b) at least one locking mechanism requires the use of a tool to be rele

46、ased, or c) folding is only possible when two independent locking mechanisms are operated simultaneously, or d) there are two or more automatically engaging locking devices that cannot be released by one single action, or e) folding of the high chair requires two consecutive actions, the first of wh

47、ich shall be maintained while the second is carried out.“ 5.4.4 Locking mechanism strength When tested in accordance with !EN 14988-2:2006+A1:2012“, clause 6.4, the high chair shall not collapse. The locking mechanism shall remain engaged. 5.5 Small parts When tested in accordance with !EN 14988-2:2

48、006+A1:2012“, clause 6.5, no part that can be detached shall fit wholly within the cylinder. Parts that clearly will not fit in this cylinder shall not be tested. Any component intended to be removable without the use of a tool shall not fit wholly within the cylinder. ! 5.6 Restraint system 5.6.1 G

49、eneral The high chair shall have an active restraint system complying with 5.6.2 or a passive restraint system complying with 5.6.3.
