The work of preparing Internati
24、onal Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS
25、O, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical co
26、mmittees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the
27、 possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 15537 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 122, Ergonomics, in coll
28、aboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 3, Anthropometry and biomechanics, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement). ENISO15537:2004 vIntroduction An investigation into how far ergonomic requirements are taken
29、 into consideration with regard to industrial products and designs is often performed using test equipment, giving possibilities to register only one parameter (for example only the body height) or perhaps a few parameters. With regard to the concurrent multifunctional testing and/or determination o
30、f product characteristics for which no technical testing procedures have been laid down, one or several persons are often designated as test persons and are observed and/or questioned while or after using the product under test. The reliability of any findings established in this way is very much de
31、pendent on the extent to which the test persons represent the intended user group in different aspects. How well a product or design is adjusted to the anthropometrics of the intended user population is dealt with in this International Standard. According to EN 614-1, work equipment, e.g. machinery,
32、 has to be designed with proper regard to the body dimensions of the intended user population. One means to verify that a product or a design fulfils this requirement is to set up a panel of test persons and let them test the product in different ways. An example of the use of this International Sta
33、ndard is given in Annex A (informative). ENISO15537:2004ENISO15537:2004INTENRATIONAL TSANDADR IS:73551 O4002(E)1Principles for selecting and using test persons for testing anthropometric aspects of industrial products and designs 1 Scope This International Standard establishes methods for determinin
34、g the composition of groups of persons whose anthropometric characteristics are to be representative of the intended user population of any specific object under test. This International Standard is applicable to the testing of anthropometric aspects of industrial products and designs having direct
35、contact with the human body or dependent on human body measurements, e.g. machinery, work equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), consumer goods, working spaces, architectural details or transportation equipment. This International Standard is also applicable to the testing of such safety as
36、pects of products that are dependent on human body measurements. It does not deal with other aspects of the task or other requirements, such as perception of information (except geometrical arrangement of the viewing targets) and the use of controls (except their geometrical placement). Although thi
37、s International Standard deals with selecting test persons from an anthropometric perspective, similar general principles could be applied for other test variables, e.g. biomechanical aspects. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this doc
38、ument. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

39、Part 3: Anthropometric data 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 critical dimension of a product to be tested dimension estimated to cause a major limitation for the usage from an anthropometrical point of view, for the whole body
40、or body parts, depending on the function of the product in question NOTE 1 Critical dimension is related to reach, clearance, posture, contact pressure or other factors which may result in difficulties of use, discomfort or health risks. NOTE 2 A product to be tested can have more than one critical
41、dimension, for example, a combination of a reach- and a clearance-dimension. EXAMPLE The critical dimension for an access opening could be the width, or a combination of two dimensions, for example the width and the opening height. ENISO15537:2004 2 3.2 critical anthropometric measurement anthropome
42、tric measurement which is most affected by the critical dimensions of the product NOTE For instance, the critical anthropometric measurement for a person entering an opening for whole body access is the one with the greatest constraint (for example, the body height and/or the body width, depending o
43、n the form of the access opening). 3.3 worst-case combination of critical dimensions and anthropometric measurements combination of critical dimensions of the product, additional equipment and the critical anthropometric measurement imposing the biggest restriction on a person who is able to use the
44、 product or design as intended 3.4 slim body type person for whom at least two width measurements (preferably shoulder width and hip breadth) and two depth measurements (preferably chest depth and abdominal depth) are smaller than the figure representing the 25th percentile or, where this figure is
45、not available, the average value of the 5th and the 50th (mean) percentile for the population in question EXAMPLE For the European shoulder breadth (see Table 1) the figure in question is 395 mm 474 mm 2 += 434,5 mm. 3.5 corpulent body type person for whom at least two breadth measurements (preferab
46、ly shoulder breadth and hip breadth) and two depth measurements (preferably chest depth and abdominal depth) are bigger than the figure representing the 75th percentile or, where this figure is not available, the average value of the 50th percentile (mean) and the 95th percentile for the population
47、in question EXAMPLE For the European hip breadth, standing (see Table 1) the figure in question is 359 mm 400 mm 2 += 379,5 mm. 3.6 medium body type person belonging neither to the slim nor to the corpulent body type 4 Types of tests 4.1 General Depending on the accuracy of the test results required
48、 and the availability of test persons, either a screening or a detailed test can be performed. In addition to critical dimensions of the product, at least the following shall be taken into account as selection criteria: the geographical origin of the user population (global, European Union or a specific population); the age of the user population (all or specific age groups); the gender of the user population (both or specific); occupation (if relevant).
