19、SO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical c
20、ommittee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electr
21、otechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was dra

28、Standard has been developed in response to the demand throughout the world. The aim is to ensure that bicycles manufactured in compliance with this International Standard will be as safe as is practically possible. The tests are designed to ensure the strength and durability of individual parts as w
29、ell as of the bicycle as a whole, demanding high quality throughout and consideration of safety aspects from the design stage onwards.The scope is limited to safety considerations, and has specifically avoided standardization of components.If the bicycle is to be used on public roads, national regul
30、ations apply.For the purpose of improvement of repeatability and reproducibility, and considering the applicability to all types of bicycle and the size and influence of the operator, the machine test method reflects todays state of the art and is preferred to the track test method.Unless there is e
31、vidence of improvement of the test track method in the future, make this method informative for the next revision. Users of this International Standard are invited to provide their feedback to the ISO/TC 149/SC 1. ISO 2014 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 4210-4:2014ISO 4210-4:2014(E)BS EN ISO 4210-4:

33、its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

34、 for bicycles Part 2: Requirements for city b) a velocity-recording device (accurate to within 2 %) to record the velocity at the commencement of braking;c) a distance recording system (accurate to within 1 %) to record the braking distance;d) a water spray system, to provide wetting of the braking
35、surface, consisting of a water reservoir connected by tubing to a pair of nozzles at the front wheel and a pair of nozzles at the rear wheel. A quick-acting on/off valve shall be included for control by the rider. Each nozzle shall provide a flow of water at ambient temperature of not less than 4 ml
36、/s. Details of the positions and directions of nozzles for rim brakes, hub brakes, band brakes, disc brakes, and back-pedal brake are given in Figures 7 to 13;NOTE Figures 7 and 8 for rim brakes show side-pull callipers but the same arrangements apply to centre-pull callipers and cantilever brakes.e
37、) a brake-actuation indicating system to record independently when each lever or pedal is actuated.4.6.3.3 Mass of bicycle, rider, and instrumentationThe combined mass of the bicycle, the rider, and the instrumentation shall be 100 kg.When wet condition braking tests are performed, the combined mass
38、 can decrease throughout the test due to water consumption, but it shall not be less than 99 kg at the end of the valid test runs.Where a manufacturer specifies that their bicycle can carry a mass such that the sum of that mass plus the mass of the bicycle is in excess of 100 kg (60 kg for young adu
39、lts) to some value M, apply M as total weight.Any extra weight shall be positioned above the rear wheel and in front of the rear axle.4.6.3.4 Force applied to the brake leversa) Magnitude and position of force on brake levers ISO 2014 All rights reserved 9BS EN ISO 4210-4:2014ISO 4210-4:2014(E)Apply
40、 a handgrip force not exceeding 180 N at the point as specified in Figure 5. Check before and after each series of test runs to verify the lever force.b) Optional brake-force application deviceIt is permissible to use a test mechanism to operate the brake lever, and when such a device is used, it sh
41、all meet the requirements of 4.6.3.4 item a) and shall additionally control the rate of application of the brake lever force such that 63 % of the intended lever force is applied in not less than 0,2 s.4.6.3.5 Running in the braking surfacesA running-in process shall be conducted on every brake befo
42、re performance testing is carried out.Apply the brakes for not less than 3 s to maintain steady deceleration while the bicycle is being ridden at a speed of approximately 16 km/h. Repeat this operation 10 times.4.6.3.6 Test method Test runs under dry conditionsPedal the test bicycle until the specif
43、ied test velocity is attained (see ISO 4210-2:2013, Table 2). Then stop pedalling and apply the brakes. The bicycle shall be brought to a smooth, safe stop see ISO 4210-2:2013, 4.6.8.2 item a).4.6.3.7 Test method Test runs under wet conditionsThe method shall be as given in 4.6.3.6, with the additio
44、n that wetting of the brake system(s) shall commence not less than 25 m prior to the commencement of braking and shall continue until the bicycle comes to rest. Excessive amounts of water can be swept from the test track surface between runs.4.6.3.8 Number of valid test runsa) If the gradient of the
45、 track is less than 0,2 %, the following runs shall be made:1) five consecutive valid runs under dry conditions;2) two acclimatization runs under wet conditions (results not recorded);3) five consecutive valid runs under wet conditions.b) If the gradient of the track lies between 0,2 % and 0,5 %, th
46、e following runs shall be made:1) six consecutive valid runs under dry conditions with alternate runs in opposite directions;2) two acclimatization runs under wet conditions (results not recorded);3) six consecutive valid runs under wet conditions with alternate runs in opposite directions.A rest pe
47、riod not exceeding 3 min can be taken between successive runs.10 ISO 2014 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 4210-4:2014ISO 4210-4:2014(E)Key1 water nozzles2 fork crown3 front tee-piece4 wheel rim5 direction of the wheel rotationFigure 7 Water nozzles for rim-brake (front) ISO 2014 All rights reserved 11B
