BS EN 15338:2007+A1:2010EN 15338:2007+A1:2010 (E) 5 Introduction The aim of this European Standard is to provide furniture manufacturers, designers and developers with comparable information regarding the p

23、erformance of extension elements and drawers. BS EN 15338:2007+A1:2010EN 15338:2007+A1:2010 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies test methods and requirements for the strength and durability of all types of extension elements and their components for all fields of application, except table

24、 extensions. The tests consist of the application of loads, forces and velocities simulating normal functional use, as well as misuse, that might reasonably be expected to occur. With the exception of the corrosion test in 6.4, the tests are designed to evaluate properties without regard to material

25、s, design/construction or manufacturing processes. The strength and durability tests only relate to the extension elements and the parts used for the attachment, e.g. screws. The strength and durability tests are carried out in a test frame with specified properties. The test results can only be use

26、d as a guide to the performance of a piece of furniture. The test results are only valid for the extension element tested. These results may be used to represent the performance of production models provided that the tested model is representative of the production model. Ageing and influences of he

27、at and humidity are not included. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

30、pening mechanism 3.2 extension element components that can be pulled out and pushed in, e.g. drawers, suspended pocket files, keyboard trays 3.3 loading capacity, M mass in Kg, as specified by the manufacturer, for which the extension element will fulfil the strength and durability requirements. BS

31、EN 15338:2007+A1:2010EN 15338:2007+A1:2010 (E) 7 NOTE The loading capacity includes the extension element and the load in/on the extension element. In other EN standards, this is referred to as total mass. 3.4 damper mechanism which gently brings the extension element to a stop 4 General test condit

32、ions 4.1 Preliminary preparation The extension element shall be assembled/mounted according to the instructions supplied with it. If mounting or assembly instructions are not supplied, the most adverse configuration shall be used and the mounting or assembly method shall be recorded in the test repo

33、rt. Fittings shall be tightened before testing and shall not be re-tightened unless specifically required in the manufacturers instructions. If the configuration must be changed to produce the worst-case conditions, this shall be recorded in the test report. For testing a range of related extension

34、elements, only worst case(s) need to be tested. The tests shall be carried out in indoor ambient conditions at a temperature between 15 C and 25 C. If during a test the temperature is outside of the range of 15 Cto 25 C, the maximum and/or minimum temperature shall be recorded in the test report. Ex

35、tension elements which include structural hardware parts made of hygroscopic plastic materials, e.g. polyamide shall be conditioned at (23 5) C and a relative humidity of (50 5) % for at least 7 days before testing. In the case of designs not addressed in the test procedures, the test shall be carri

36、ed out as far as possible as described, and deviations from the test procedure recorded in the test report. Before beginning the testing, visually inspect the extension element thoroughly. Record any defects so that they are not assumed to have been caused by the tests. Carry out measurements when s

37、pecified. 4.2 Test equipment Unless otherwise specified, the tests may be applied by any suitable device, because results are not dependent upon the apparatus. The equipment shall not inhibit deformation of the extension element, i. e. it shall be able to move so that it can follow the deformation o

38、f the extension element during testing. All loading pads shall be capable of pivoting in relation to the direction of the applied force. The pivot point shall be as close as practically possible to the load surface. 4.3 Application of forces The forces in the static load tests shall be applied suffi

39、ciently slowly to ensure that negligible dynamic force is applied. Unless otherwise specified, each force shall be maintained for not less than 10 and not more than 15 s. The forces in durability tests shall be applied at a rate to ensure that excessive heating does not occur. The forces may be repl

40、aced by masses. The relation 10 N = 1 kg may be used for this purpose. BS EN 15338:2007+A1:2010EN 15338:2007+A1:2010 (E) 8 4.4 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated, the following tolerances are applicable: Forces: 5 % of the nominal force; Velocities: 5 % of the nominal velocity; Masses: 1 % of the no

41、minal mass; Dimensions: 1 mm of the nominal dimension; Angles: 2 of the nominal angle; The accuracy for the positioning of loading pads shall be 5 mm. 4.5 Sequence of testing The tests shall be carried out in the same sequence as the clauses are numbered in this standard. If the clause sequence is n

42、ot followed, the sequence shall be recorded in the test report. 4.6 Inspection and assessment of results Before and after completion of each test, carry out the inspection as specified, after using adjustment devices, if available. Before any measurements are taken, the loaded extension shall be mov

43、ed 10 times over the total extension length. Record any changes that have taken place since the initial inspection. The inspection shall include at least the following: a) the fracture of any component or joint; b) the loosening of any joint intended to be rigid, which can be demonstrated by hand pr

44、essure; c) the deformation or wear of any part or component such that its functioning is impaired; d) the loosening of any means of fixing components; e) any impaired function of a component or part. 5 Test apparatus 5.1 Loading pad Rigid disc 100 mm in diameter (or 50 mm to be used in limited space

45、), with a flat face and a 12 mm front edge blend radius. 5.2 Apparatus for slam-shut/open tests Two examples for suitable apparatus as well as calibration instructions are given in Annex B. BS EN 15338:2007+A1:2010EN 15338:2007+A1:2010 (E) 9 5.3 Masses Masses shall be designed so that they do not re

46、inforce the structure or re-distribute the stresses. 5.4 Glass marbles Marbles made of solid glass with 10 mm to 15 mm diameter. They shall be in a flexible bag large enough to allow them to move in the bag during the test. In cases where the volume of the glass marbles is greater than the volume of

47、 the extension element, steel marbles shall be used. This shall be noted in the test report. 5.5 Loads for filing pockets Suspended filing pockets shall be loaded with typing paper or an equivalent alternative as shown in Figure 1. In cases where it is not possible to achieve the loading capacity wi

48、th paper, the additional mass shall be steel and shall be positioned as the spacing material. This shall be noted in the test report.

49、 by the size of the paper) 5 Air gap 25mm 6 mm A Side view B Top view Figure 1 Loading of suspended filing pockets with typing paper 5.6 Test frame and test drawer The tests specified in 6.2 and 6.3 shall be carried out in a test frame (Figure 2, which is so constructed that the deformation under the applied load is no more than 1 mm).
