This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endor
19、sement, at the latest by October 2015, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2015. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for ident
20、ifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 12674-4:2006. The only technical change since the latest edition concerns the following point: modifications in the wording of the second paragraph in 5.2. This European Standard is part of a series of four standards for roll containe
21、rs and dollies. The other parts are entitled as follows: Roll containers Part 1 Terminology Roll containers Part 2 General design and safety principles Roll containers Part 3 Test methods According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countri
22、es are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Polan

DIN EN 12674-4:2015-06EN 12674-4:2015 (E) 4 Introduction Roll containers and dollies are equipment intended for moving goods. They comprise apparatus fitted with fixed and/or swivel castors. For roll
24、 containers the superstructure comprises two or more frames which provide retention for items requiring transport and/or distribution. Dollies and roll containers can be supplied in a variety of materials and additionally roll containers are supplied in four main styles. One of these styles, the Nes
25、ting style, is further sub-divided into five derived forms and the Demountable style is sub-divided into two derived forms. EN 12674-1 gives details of how these styles differ. EN 12674-2 gives methods of measuring working dimensions and aspects of design that manufacturers need to be aware of. Test
26、 methods are given in EN 12674-3 which are supported by performance levels in this Part 4, which take account of the normal static and dynamic loads applied in use. This European Standard specifies minimum levels of performance for critical tests, in particular with reference to safety. Certain test
27、s which are related only to longevity, quality control or need development are optional and if carried out may be subject to agreement between manufacturer and user. Tests are applied to fully assembled roll container and dolly specimens as indicated in Table 1. Dismantled or nested roll containers
28、are not subjected to testing; however, empty dollies stacked ready for use, storage or transit need to be subjected to normative testing in order to determine a safe number of stacked units. In order to calculate applied test loads a nominal safe working load (SWL) of 250 kg is assumed in this Europ
29、ean Standard for every specimen. The value of 250 kg is not a normative level and may be reduced or increased by the testing body in collaboration with the specimen supplier/manufacturer. However, if different, the level used should be clearly stated in the test report. DIN EN 12674-4:2015-06EN 1267
30、4-4:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies appropriate tests and levels of performance for roll containers and dollies manufactured in all materials, assembled for use and stacked for storage when tested in accordance with EN 12674-3. 2 Normative references The following documents, in w
31、hole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 12674-1:1999, Roll containers Par

37、 of roll containers to be tested 4.1 Sequence of tests All tests are independent of each other and may be carried out in any order. Results shall be listed in identical order to tests listed in this European Standard. A new untested or undamaged specimen or component shall be used in each test. All
38、tests other than those referred to in 5.1.2 and 5.10.2 are prototype tests and may therefore result in destruction or damage to the specimen. Unless otherwise stated by the roll container or dolly supplier/manufacturer and in order to calculate applied test loads a nominal safe working load (SWL) of
39、 250 kg is assumed for every specimen. The value of 250 kg SWL is not a normative level and may be reduced or increased by the testing body in collaboration with the specimen supplier/manufacturer. However, if modified, the SWL level used shall be clearly stated in the test report. 4.2 Applicability
40、 of normative tests The following tests shall be applied to fully assembled roll container and dolly specimens where indicated in Table 1. Some tests are conducted on empty specimens and some with load as specified. Where specific performance requirements relating to individual tests apply, they are
41、 given in Clause 5. Stacked dollies and dismantled stacked roll container bases intended for stacking shall be subjected to normative stability testing as detailed in 5.1.3. Dismantled or nested roll containers are not subjected to normative testing. DIN EN 12674-4:2015-06EN 12674-4:2015 (E) 7 Table

46、 differs from EN 12674-3:2004 then this European Standard will take precedence. NOTE 2 No recommendation is made for stability performance for the roll container known as a dairy cage. NOTE 3 The standard dummy load in normative test 4.2.1 of EN 12674-3:2004 does not vary with roll container or doll
47、y type, size or SWL since direct comparisons between designs would then be impossible. Additional tests may be specified by a manufacturer or user, but if specified are not part of this European Standard. 5.1.2 Dolly - dummy load With dummy load W equal to 50 kg, centrally placed at h = 250 mm, the
48、minimum angle of inclination of the supporting table before instability or topple shall not be less than = 28 in any of four directions R, L, F or B. 5.1.3 Dolly - stacked empty With supporting test bed table set horizontal with = 0, estimate the number of identical stacked units that will achieve s
49、tability. Place these in stacked position with the longest dolly dimension parallel to the test bed table hinge, setting castors on the supporting test bed table hinge-side in toe-in position. Incline the table slowly to = 7 and fix securely at this angle while holding stacked units secure, then add or subtract units until the stack just achieves stability. Record the number of stacked uni
