It describes
25、a number of tests, consisting of the application, to various parts of the item, of loads or forces simulating normal functional use, as well as misuse that can reasonably be expected to occur. The tests are designed to evaluate properties without regard to materials, design/construction or manufactu
26、ring processes. 1 Scope This Part of EN 1130 describes test methods that assess the safety of cribs and cradles for domestic use. The tests are designed to be applied to cribs/cradles that are fully assembled and ready for use. NOTE. The test results are only valid for the article tested. When the t
27、est results are intended to be applied to other similar articles, the test specimen should be representative of the production model. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at
28、the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references, the latest edition of
29、the publication referred to applies: EN 1130-1 : 1996 Furniture Cribs and cradles for domestic use Part 1: Safety requirements ISO 48 : 1979 Vulcanized rubbers Determination of hardness (Hardness between 30 and 85 IRHD) 3 General Unless otherwise specified, the locking mechanism of swinging cribs/cr
30、adles shall be locked. For tolerances, all forces shall have an accuracy of 5 %, all masses an accuracy of 0,5 % and all dimensions an accuracy of 0,5 mm. Before any of the tests described in this Part of EN 1130 are commenced, the item shall be old enough to ensure that it has developed its full st
31、rength. At least 4 weeks in normal indoor conditions shall have elapsed between manufacture and testing in the case of glued joints. Before testing, any fabrics used for cribs/cradles shall be cleaned or washed twice according the manufacturers instructions. Immediately before testing, the cribs/cra
32、dles shall be stored for at least 1 week in a standardized atmosphere at a temperature of (23 2) C and a relative humidity of (50 5) %. The furniture shall be tested as delivered. If of knock-down type, it shall be assembled according to the instructions supplied with it. If the furniture can be ass
33、embled or combined in different ways, the most adverse combinations shall be used for each test. The tests shall be carried out as listed and on the same test specimen. Knock-down fittings shall be tightened before testing and shall not be retightened throughout the testing procedure. In the case of
34、 designs not catered for in the test procedures, the tests should be carried out as far as possible as described, and a list made of the deviations from the test procedure. 4 Test equipment NOTE. Unless specified otherwise, test forces may be applied by any suitable device, because results are depen
35、dent only upon correctly applied forces and loads, and not upon the apparatus. 4.1 Test dummy. A cylinder with a diameter of (120 5) mm, a height of (180 5) mm and a mass of 9 kg with the centre of gravity at the centre of the cylinder. The edges shall have a radius of (5 1) mm. 4.2 Test load. A mas
36、s of 20 kg distributed over an area of approximately 150 mm3 300 mm. 4.3 Slide gauge. A cone made of plastics or other hard, smooth material mounted on a force-measuring device (see figure 1). There shall be five cones, having a diameter of 5 mm, 7 mm, 25 mm, 45 mm and 65 mm. 4.4 Stops, to prevent t
37、he article from sliding but not tilting, not higher than 12 mm, except in cases where the design of the item necessitates the use of higher stops, in which case the lowest possible shall be used. 4.5 Floor surface, horizontal, rigid and flat. 4.6 Cylinder, with main dimensions as shown in figure 2,
38、for assessment of small components. 4.7 Side impacter. Pendulum (see figure 3) made of steel, and with a cylindrical head surrounded by a 10 mm thick layer of rubber of hardness 76 to 78 IRHD in accordance with ISO 48 : 1979. The centre of gravity shall be 250 mm from the centre of the pivoting poin
39、t A. The point of impact shall be 300 mm from the pivoting point. The total mass shall be 2 kg. 4.8 Force-measuring device, e.g. a spring balance.Page 4 EN 1130-2 : 1996 BSI 1996 Figure 1. Examples of measuring cones Dimensions in millimetres Figure 2. Cylinder 5 Procedures 5.1 Assembly and inspecti
40、on before test Assemble the crib/cradle in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Prior to the test, inspect the crib/cradle visually for defects. 5.2 Inspection of workmanship Inspect the test specimen to determine whether exposed edges, screws, bolts, zips and other fittings are rounded o
41、r chamfered and free of burrs and sharp edges. 5.3 Measurement 5.3.1 Measurement of height of sides Measure the internal height of the sides from the top of the crib/cradle base in its highest position vertically to the top of the handrails in its lowest position, without the mattress and with the m
42、attress, if any.Page 5 EN 1130-2 : 1996 BSI 1996 Dimensions in millimetres Figure 3. Side impacterPage 6 EN 1130-2 : 1996 BSI 1996 5.3.2 Measurement of holes and the distance between structural members, mesh width, clearance between the bed base and ends and sides and openings in the bed base Press
43、the slide gauge (see 4.3), with a force as specified in table 1, into the holes, between the structural members, into the mesh openings, between the bed base and sides and ends, and into the openings in the bed base. Repeat the test with the test dummy (see 4.1) placed horizontally in the most onero
44、us position on the base of the crib/cradle. Table 1.

Apply a tensile force to the components to be tested, using a clamp or other suitable means. Apply a force of: 50 N when the
46、largest accessible dimension is less than or equal to 6 mm; 90 N when the largest accessible dimension is greater than 6 mm. Apply the force gradually over 5 s and maintain for 10 s. If the component has become detached, examine whether the component fits wholly within the cylinder (see 4.6). 5.5 Su
47、stained load test to base Place the test load (see 4.2) over the centre of the base and maintain for one week. The major axis of the load shall be parallel to the major axis of the crib/cradle. Record any break, deformation or any other damage. 5.6 Strength of the structural members of the sides (be
48、nding test) Position the crib/cradle on the floor with all the legs secured against stops (see 4.4). Use an appropriate force-measuring device (see 4.8). Apply a force of 150 N in turn to one structural member positioned in the middle and one at the end of each side. The force shall act horizontally
49、 in the direction of the longitudinal and transverse axis of the crib/cradle. It shall be applied midway between the top and the bottom of the structural member. The load duration shall be at least 30 s. Record any break or deformation of structural members, or any other damage. 5.7 Strength of sides, structural members of the sides and corners (impact test) NOTE. This test only applies to cribs/cradles whose sides have an internal height greater than 400 mm. Position the crib/cradle on the fl
