3、The specific hazards addressed by this specification areproduct disassembly/collapse, stability, and falls from elevated surfaces.1. Scope1.1 This consumer safety specification covers establishmentof requirements, test methods, and marking requirements topromote safe use of an infant bouncer seat by
4、 an occupant anda caregiver.1.2 For purposes of this consumer safety specification, aninfant bouncer seat is a freestanding product intended tosupport an occupant in a reclined position to facilitate bouncingby the occupant, with the aid of a caregiver or by other means.Intended occupants are infant
5、s who have not developed theability to sit up unassisted (approximately 0 to 6 months ofage).1.3 This consumer safety specification is intended to mini-mize the risk of injury to an occupant resulting from normaluse and reasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of an infantbouncer seat.1.4 No infant bo
6、uncer seat produced after the approval dateof this consumer safety specification shall, either by label orother means, indicate compliance with this specification unlessit conforms to all requirements contained herein.1.5 This consumer safety specification is not intended toaddress incidents and inj
7、uries resulting from the interaction ofother persons with the occupant in an infant bouncer seat or theincidents resulting from abuse or misuse by other children.1.6 The test values in inch-pound units stated in thisspecification are to be regarded as the standard. The metricvalues in parentheses ar

Per
37、formance Requirements6.1 Restraint System:6.1.1 A restraint system shall be provided to secure a childin any of the manufacturers recommended use positions.6.1.2 The restraint system shall include both a waist andcrotch restraint, where the crotch restraints use is mandatorywhen the waist restraint
38、is in use.6.1.3 The anchorages for the restraint system shall notseparate from their attachment points when tested in accor-dance with 7.1.6.2 Stability:6.2.1 Forward StabilityThe infant bouncer seat shall nottip over when tested in accordance with 7.2.2. If the stabilitytest fixture touches the tes
39、t surface and prevents the productfrom tipping over, retest the product near the edge of anelevated test surface to allow the product to tip.6.2.2 Sideward and Rearward StabilityThe infant bouncerseat shall not tip over when tested in accordance with 7.2.3-7.2.6.6.3 Slip Resistance:6.3.1 Dynamic Sli
40、p ResistanceThe infant bouncer seatshall not slip more than12 in. (13 mm) when tested inaccordance with 7.3.4.NOTE 1As this is a dynamic impact test, the12 in. allows for a smallamount of settling prior to the feet gripping.6.3.2 Static Slip ResistanceThe infant bouncer seat shallnot slip more than1
41、8 in. (3 mm) when tested in accordancewith 7.3.5-7.3.9.6.4 Structural IntegrityAt test conclusion, there shall beno failure of seams, breakage of materials, or changes ofadjustments that could cause the product not to fully supportthe child or create a hazardous condition as defined in Section5.6.4.
42、1 Dynamic LoadThe infant bouncer seat shall notcreate a hazardous condition as defined in Section 5 whentested in accordance with 7.4.1.6.4.2 Static LoadThe infant bouncer seat shall not createa hazardous condition as defined in Section 5 when tested inaccordance with 7.4.2.6.5 Disassembly/CollapseT
43、he infant bouncer seat shallnot disassemble or collapse when tested in accordance with7.5.6.6 Drop TestThe infant bouncer seat shall not create ahazardous condition as defined in Section 5 when tested inaccordance with 7.6.7. Test MethodsNOTE 2The tests described in 7.1 through 7.6 are to be perform
44、ed inthe order specified without refurbishing or repositioning of adjustments, ifany.7.1 Restraint System:7.1.1 Secure the infant bouncer seat so that it can not movevertically or horizontally.7.1.2 Apply a force of 45 lbf (200 N) to a single attachmentpoint of the restraint system in the normal use
45、 direction(s) thatstress would be applied to the attachment. Gradually apply theforce within a period of 5 s and maintain for an additional 10s.NOTE 3This is in accordance with Specification F 404.7.1.3 Repeat 7.1.2 for each attachment point of the restraintsystem and fastening device.7.2 Stability:
46、Forward Stability7.2.1 Stability Test Fixture:7.2.1.1 The stability test fixture is to be constructed of34-in.(19-mm) plywood or the equivalent of such product.7.2.1.2 The fixture should be constructed according to Fig.4.7.2.2 Test Procedure:7.2.2.1 Establish the restraint system adjustment by placi
47、ngthe CAMI Infant Dummy, Mark II (see Fig. 1) in the infantbouncer seat, fastening the restraint system in accordance withthe manufacturers instructions, and removing the dummy.7.2.2.2 Insert the stability test fixture into the bouncer andpull forward to remove any slack in the crotch restraint.7.2.
48、2.3 Use a force gage to apply a static load of 21 lbf (93N) vertically downward on the stability test fixture in thelocation designated on the drawing (5-in. (130-mm) in front ofthe crotch post.) within a period of 5 s and maintain for anadditional 60 s (see Fig. 5)NOTE 4The 21-lb load is equivalent
49、 to the weight of a 95th percentile6-month-old.NOTE 5It is believed that forward tipovers occur when the child isleaning forward. The test calls for the weight to be placed 5 in. in front ofthe crotch post. When the CAMI Infant Dummy, Mark II, is bent forwardto where the head touches the toes, the center of mass is approximately 3in. in front of the crotch. Two additional inches were added as a factor ofsafety.7.2.2.4 The test surface shall be an impregnated high-pressure laminate of unspecified color with a smooth mattefinish.
