Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety specification is intended to address incidents reported by the U.S. ConsumerProduct Safety Commission (CP

3、SC) relating to soft infant carriers.In response to the incident data compiled by the CPSC, this consumer safety specification attemptsto minimize the hazards associated with these products from the following: (1) occupant retention, (2)structural integrity, (3) deficiency of consumer education rega

4、rding product use. This consumer safetyspecification is intended to deal with reasonably foreseeable use and misuse of the products. Thisconsumer safety specification does not apply to products that are blatantly misused, nor does it applyto products used by consumers in a careless manner that viola

Scope1.1 This consumer safety specification establishes performance requirements, test methods and marking requirements topromote safe use of soft infant and toddler carriers.1.2 This consumer safety sp

6、ecification is intended to minimize the risk of incidents to an infant from the normal use andreasonably foreseeable misuse of these products.1.3 For purposes of definition, a soft infant and toddler carrier is a product, normally of sewn fabric construction, which isdesigned to contain a full term

7、infant to a toddler, generally in an upright position, in close proximity to the caregiver. In general,the child will weigh between 7 and 45 lb (3.2 and 22 kg). The soft infant and toddler carrier is normally “worn” by the caregiverwith a child positioned in the carrier and the weight of the child a

8、nd carrier suspended from one or both shoulders of the caregiver.These products may be worn on the front, side, or back of the caregivers body with the infant either facing towards or away fromthe caregiver. This consumer safety specification does not include products generally referred to as “sling

9、s.”1.4 No soft infant and toddler carrier produced after the approval date of this consumer safety specification shall, either by labelor other means, indicate compliance with the specification unless it complies with all of the requirements contained herein.1.5 This consumer safety specification is

10、 not intended to address incidents and injuries resulting from the interaction of otherpersons or objects with the caregiver and infant while the soft carrier is in use.1.6 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversio

11、ns to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.1.7 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test method portion, Section 7 of this consumer safety specification.This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associa
