1、Designation: C 224 78 (Reapproved 2009)Standard Practice forSampling Glass Containers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 224; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in
2、 parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the sampling of glass containers(for example, bottles, jars, and so forth) for performing suchtests as mechanical strength,
3、 dimensions, and other measurablecharacteristics, and for visual examination.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determ

5、bles for In-spection by Attributes33. Classification3.1 For sampling purposes the pertinent characteristics ofglass containers are classified as follows:3.1.1 Grade of annealing (relative annealing stress).3.1.2 Hydrostatic pressure.3.1.3 Thermal shock strength.3.1.4 Visible characteristics readily
6、graded or judged byvisual examination, namely, deformities.3.1.5 Mold characteristics of a structural character (asdistinguished from appearance) where the component part orunit of the manufacturing process that controls the character-istic is the mold or mold cavity (as distinguished from thefurnac
7、e, feeder, or lehr), namely, capacity, dimensions.4. Number of Specimens4.1 Unless otherwise specified, the minimum number ofspecimens for the various classifications of Section 3 is givenin Table 1.5. Procedure5.1 Continuous ProcessSampling from a continuousmanufacturing process shall be in accorda
8、nce with a timeschedule. For those characteristics affected by the degree ofannealing, take the samples from the exit of the lehr (or frompacked cases whose continuity in point of time is known). Forthose characteristics not affected by the degree of annealing,quickly cooled samples may be taken ahe

For some purposes,the sample may come from the lot as a whole; for otherpurposes, it may be necessary to sort the lot before sampling.Such sorting may be for the purpose of segregating lots ba

Take the specimens composing the sample accord-ing to the principles of random sampling; for instance, do nottake all the specimens from the same side or location of the lot.If the containers are packed in cases, remove the cas
11、es from thelot at random. Take specimens for evaluation, in turn, atrandom from these cases. The minimum number of cases to beselected shall be determined in accordance with MIL-STD105 E (see 5.2.1) or that number required to provide thenumber of individual containers to be evaluated (see 5.2.2),whi
12、chever quantity represents the larger number of cases. Ifmore than one independent evaluation can be performed on thesame container, no additional sample is required for themultiple evaluation.5.2.1 Minimum Number of Cases Determined in Accor-dance with MIL-STDDetermine the number of cases in thelot

Find the corr
16、esponding sample size code letter (nor-mally Column II) of Table 1. Using the first and secondcolumns of Table II-A, find the sample size corresponding tothis code letter. This sample size will designate the number ofcases to be selected at random from the lot. As far as possible,an equal number of
17、individual containers shall be taken forevaluation from each case selected.5.2.2 Minimum Number of Cases Determined by Number ofIndividual Containers to be EvaluatedIn the event that 5.2.1does not provide the number of containers required for theevaluation, select sufficient cases at random to provi
18、de thenecessary number of containers.NOTE 1An example of minimum sampling using MIL-STD 105 E isas follows:A lot of 1000 cases of 24 containers each would call for sample sizecode letter J (Column II, Table 1), corresponding to 80 cases (Table II-A).The minimum sample size for visible characteristic
19、 determinations for theoriginal lot of 24 000 containers is designated by sample size code letterM. Turning to Table X-M-2, it can be seen that 315 containers (approxi-mately 4 per case selected) are needed for a single sample, 200 (212 percase) followed by 200 (212 per case) for the respective firs
20、t and secondsamples for double sampling, and 80 (1 per case) for each step of multiplesampling. The containers sampled may be used to determine the relativefrequency of occurrence of containers from individual mold cavities.Containers that have passed the visual examination may be used toprovide sam

Timingwill depend on the degree of control necessary

Typical dimensions are height, diameter, weight, capacity, lettering or decoration (positionand size), and the principal dimensions of the finish (closure-holding contours).HFifty containers shall be taken as a first sample, and fifty containers as a second sample, following the principle of Table X-J-2 of MIL-STD 105 E for attribute gaging.A minimum sample of one from each mold cavity represented in the lot shall be taken for measurement by variables.C 224 78 (2009)2
