21、87, Road vehicles Measurement techniques in impact tests Instrumentation 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 area-elastic sports surface sports surface, to which the application of a point force causes deflection over a r
22、elatively large area around the point of application of the force 3.2 point-elastic sports surface sports surface, to which the application of a point force causes deflection only at or close to the point of application of the force 3.3 combination-elastic sports surface area-elastic sports surface

24、cs between those of an area-elastic surface and a point-elastic surface. 3.5 shock absorption ability of a sports surface to reduce the impact force of a body falling onto the surface NOTE Shock absorption is a physical quantity consisting of damping and resilience due to a certain impact. 4 Princip
25、le A weight is allowed to fall onto a spring placed on the test piece and the maximum force applied is recorded. The difference between this force and the maximum force measured on a hard surface is reported as the force reduction. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Thu Aug 24 08:12:15 BST 2006, Uncontrol

For point-elastic and mixed-elastic sports surfaces, the test piece shall be a piece of the surface of minimum size 1,0 m by 1,0 m, in combination with the supporting layers to be used in service and using the recommended method of attachment in accordance with the
28、 manufacturers instructions. Laboratory test pieces of either synthetic turf or textile materials shall be prepared in accordance with EN 12229. 6 Conditioning and test temperature For tests in the laboratory, condition the test piece for a minimum of 40 h at a temperature of (23 2) C. Tests on site
29、 shall be carried out at the prevailing ambient temperature and humidity, which shall be recorded and reported. 7 Apparatus 7.1.1 The principle of the apparatus is shown in Figure 1 and consists of the components specified in 7.1.2 to 7.1.10. 7.1.2 Falling weight having a mass of (20 0,1) kg with a
30、hardened striking surface guided so that it is allowed to fall smoothly and vertically with minimum friction. 7.1.3 Spiral spring, having a diameter of (69 1) mm, whose characteristic, when mounted in the assembly described below, is linear with a spring rate of (2 000 60) N/mm over the range 0,1 kN
31、 to 7,5 kN with a hardened upper plate. The spring should have three or more coaxial coils which shall be rigidly fixed together at their ends. This may be achieved, for instance, by milling the spring from a single piece of steel. 7.1.4 Adjustable supporting feet, at least 250 mm from the point of
32、application of the load for a point elastic sports surface and at least 600 mm from the point of application of the load for an area elastic sports surface. 7.1.5 Steel base plate, having a lower side rounded to a radius of 500 mm; an edge radius of 1 mm, a diameter (70,0 0,1) mm and a minimum thick
33、ness of 10 mm. 7.1.6 Metal guiding tube having an internal diameter of (71,0 0,1) mm. 7.1.7 Testing foot, consisting of the steel base plate, force sensing device, spring and the upper plate (minimum thickness 20 mm, measured at the centre of the plate) together, guided in the guiding tube. The tota
34、l mass of the testing foot (without guiding tube) shall be (3,0 0,3) kg. 7.1.8 Means of supporting the weight, allowing it to be set to the drop height with an uncertainty no greater than 0,25 mm. 7.1.9 Means of conditioning and recording the signal from the force sensing device and the sensors and
35、a means of displaying the record. The channel frequency class of the conditioning amplifier, in accordance with ISO 6487, shall be 1 kHz. The conditioning amplifier shall be followed by or shall incorporate a low-pass filter having a 2ndorder Butterworth characteristic with a -3 dB frequency of 120
36、Hz. Filtration may be implemented in hardware or software. The response of the system at any given frequency shall be within 0,5 dB of the expected response, calculated on the basis of the Butterworth function.
