21、primary tick fabric of a specimen containing feather and/or down filling, using an impact apparatus. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the tex
22、t 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 the publication referred to appli
23、es. EN 20139, Textiles Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing. (ISO 139:1973) EN 20187, Paper, board and pulps Standard atmosphere for conditioning and testing and procedure for monitoring the atmosphere and conditioning of samples. (ISO 187:1990) 3 Principle A cylindrical cushion is made
24、 from the fabric to be tested for its down-proof properties and is filled with a given amount of feather and down material or its mixtures. Sliding on an inclined plane, this cushion is moved by means of a pinned bar against a pinned plate, and is thus compressed. After the impact, the cushion is ro
25、lled back following the backward-moving pinned impact rake, and recovers its shape. This procedure is continuously repeated until a certain number of impacts is reached. As the stroke of the pinned plate is larger or smaller than the circumference of the cushion, the cushion will be compressed in di
26、fferent places. The number of down and/or feather particles which have passed or protruded from the primary tick fabric is counted. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Impact apparatus The testing apparatus (see Figure 1) consists of an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 20 , used as a sliding face for the
27、cushion, and two perpendicular pinned plates. The lower plate, the impact rake S, is movable and can be moved back and forth by means of an eccentric drive. On this movable plate, three pins are firmly mounted 95 mm apart and offset to each other by an angle of 120 . The pins have the following dime
28、nsions: 80 mm long, 15 mm in diameter, with rounded front edges. The upper perpendicular pinned plate is firmly mounted and is used as the impact plate P. This plate has only one pin with the same dimensions as above, which is located at the centre, aligned between the three pins of the movable plat
29、e. The drive of the impact rake shall be designed so that the speed of the impact movement is twice that of the back movement (crank-rocker mechanism). The impact frequency shall be 35 impacts per minute. The stroke of the pinned impact rake S shall be designed so that the distance between the pins
30、of S and P is equal to or larger than 10 mm. The stroke shall be (500 5) mm. 4.2 Balance The balance shall be accurate to within 0,1 g. 5 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing Conditioning of test specimens and testing is carried out in an atmosphere according to EN 20139, and the temperature and
31、relative humidity are measured according to EN 20187. EN 12132-2:1998 4 BSI 18 November 2003 6 Preparation of test cushions At least two test specimens are taken from the fabric, each measuring 750 mm the whole width of fabric. One specimen is taken with its larger side in the warp direction, and on
32、e in the weft direction. From these specimens, two test cylindrical cushions shall be prepared. The surface area is (210 476) mm 2 . The cushion shall have a diameter of approximately (151,5 1) mm. The resulting effective cylindrical surface of the test cushion is 1 000 cm 2(see Figure 2, Figure 3 a
33、nd Figure 4). Fill the test specimen with the required mass of filling, based on composition according to Table 1.

36、urface of the cushion cover is visually counted. Filling material which passed or is protruding from the circular ends or the seams is not taken into account. For the assessment of fabrics for their down-proof properties, the total number of passed or protruding and fallen feathers and down at the e
37、nd of the test is taken as a basis. 8 Test report The test report shall indicate the following particulars: reference to this European Standard; type of apparatus; description and designation of the tested fabric; description of the filling material and mass; impact wear; number of particles passed
38、or protruding from the fabric: a) cushion prepared with the surface area in warp direction; b) cushion prepared with the surface area in weft direction; any deviation from this European Standard and any incident likely to have affected the results.
