This European Standard
20、shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2009. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this
21、document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13843:2003. In relation to EN 13843:2003 the following main changes have been introduced: a) 5.3 “Last“ added; b) 5.4.7 “Loosening
22、 of attached starting and/or braking devices“ added; c) attachment of the chassis to the shoe in former 5.4.1 modified; d) service and maintenance in former 7.2.3 b) modified.

DIN EN 13843:2009-08 EN 13843:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This standard is applicable to inline-skates intended for users with a body mass of more than 20 kg and less than 100 kg. It specifies safety requirements for inline-skates, specifications for test methods, marking and
25、 information supplied by the manufacturer to reduce the risk of injuries to both third parties and the user during their normal use. Inline-skates for use by a rider of less than 20 kg do not belong to the scope of this European Standard. They are toys. This Standard does not apply to roller skates
26、according to EN 13899. NOTE Requirements for inline-skates from the orthopedic point of view such as lateral support or similar were not included in this standard because these requirements differ from wearer and therefore cannot be covered by a standard. 2 Normative references The following referen
27、ced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 22768-1, General tolerances Part 1: Tolerances for linear and angul

30、 inline-skates 4.2.1 Class A Inline-skates intended for use by a user mass of more than 20 kg up to 100 kg. DIN EN 13843:2009-08 EN 13843:2009 (E) 5 4.2.2 Class B Inline-skates intended for use by a user mass of more than 20 kg up to 60 kg and a length of the foot of no more than 260 mm. 4.3 Safety
31、requirements 4.3.1 Protruding components and edges All protruding components and edges on the inline-skate that can come into contact with body parts during normal use shall be deburred or constructed in such a way as to prevent injury. The test is carried out according to 5.4.2. 4.3.2 Binding eleme
32、nts Binding elements shall prevent unintentional disconnection from the users foot. This requirement is considered to be fulfilled if the correct functioning of the inline-skate is not impeded by broken, disconnected or loosened binding elements after the tests according to Clause 5. 4.3.3 Chassis 4
33、.3.3.1 General The chassis consists of one or more supports, axles, wheels, bearings and fixings. It shall withstand the impact loads, the constant load and the static load to which it is exposed during use. The chassis shall be attached to the shoe and/or shoe mounting in such a way as to be secure
34、d against unintentional loosening. These requirements are considered to be fulfilled if the correct functioning of the inline-skate is not impeded by broken, disconnected or loosened binding elements after the tests according to Clause 5. 4.3.3.2 Axles The axles shall be attached and designed in suc
35、h a way as to ensure that they cannot become loose, displaced or deformed during use. The wheels shall be secured on the axles against unintentional loosening. These requirements are considered to be fulfilled if the axles are not loosened, deformed or displaced to such an extent as to impair proper
36、 functioning, and the wheels have not become loose after the tests according to Clause 5. 4.3.3.3 Wheels The wheels shall be constructed from non-slip material. This requirement is considered to be fulfilled if a coefficient of adhesion 0of at least 0,3 is achieved in the test according to 5.4.4. Af
37、ter the tests according to Clause 5, the wheels shall not show tears. They shall further not have loosened or be deformed to the extent that a risk of their becoming blocked exists. 4.3.3.4 Bearings The bearings shall be laid out in such a way as to be functional after the tests according to Clause
38、5. They shall be constructed in such a way as to permit servicing according to the user information without impairment of their operational safety. 4.3.4 Starting and/or braking devices If an inline-skate is equipped with a starting and/or braking device, this device shall be unbreakable and secured
39、 against accidental loosening. It shall not cause an unintentional impediment of the inline-skates motion. DIN EN 13843:2009-08 EN 13843:2009 (E) 6 These requirements are considered to be fulfilled if the test according to Clause 5 did not cause a noticeable loosening of the starting and/or braking
40、device. The clearance between the starting and/or braking device and the ground is required to prevent unintentional braking. This requirement is considered to be fulfilled, if this clearance is at least 7 mm but not more than 17 mm. 4.3.5 Self-locking fixings Where self-locking nuts are used, the e
41、ntire thread, including the locking section, shall be in contact with the bolt. Self-locking nuts and other self-locking fixings that are loosened several times for the purpose of modification or servicing, shall be suitable for this purpose. The user information shall indicate if self-locking nuts
42、and other self-locking elements can loose their effectiveness. 5 Testing 5.1 Test specimen At least two pairs of the same type shall be tested. If the type contains a starting and/or braking device, one of the test specimens shall be equipped with this device. 5.2 Test conditions Unless otherwise sp
43、ecified the inline-skates shall be conditioned and tested either at a temperature of (23 2) C and a relative humidity of (50 5) % or at a temperature of (20 2) C and a relative humidity of (65 5) %. The tests are to be carried out according to 5.4 to 5.5.2. 5.3 Last The last used for the tests in ac
44、cordance with 5.4.4 to 5.4.6, 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 shall meet the following requirements: a) it shall be made of non-flexible material; b) its size and fit shall be appropriate for the test specimen; c) it shall enable firm attachment to the inline-skate by the binding elements of the inline-skate. 5.4 T
45、est specimen 1 5.4.1 General If the test specimen contains a starting and/or braking device, this specimen is to be used as test specimen 1. 5.4.2 Protruding components and edges Test by visual and tactile examination. 5.4.3 Coefficient of adhesion of wheels The wheel adhesion shall be tested by pul
46、ling a wheel along a steel plate with a fine brushed and degreased surface of arithmetical mean roughness Raof 1,5 m to 2,0 m (see Figure 1). A vertical force F1of at least 100 N shall be applied to the wheel which is moved along the steel plate perpendicular to the inline-skates longitudinal axis a
47、nd perpendicular to the surface brush direction by a horizontal force F2, applied at the height of the wheels axis. The maximum force shall be recorded. The test shall be repeated ten times and the mean value of F2shall be calculated. The test shall be carried out at a speed of 1 mm/s. DIN EN 13843:
48、2009-08 EN 13843:2009 (E) 7 The coefficient of adhesion shall be calculated according to Equation (1): 1E20g FmF+= (1) where: 0is the coefficient of adhesion; F1is the load applied to wheel, in Newton; F2is the adhesive force, in Newton; mEis the dead weight, in kilograms; g is the standard accelera
49、tion due to gravity (g = 9,81 m/s2). Figure 1 Adhesion of wheels 5.4.4 Horizontal frontal impact against the front wheel An inline-skate shall be impacted in the forward direction onto the front wheel (see Figure 2) with an energy E1of at least 135 J and an impact velocity v1of (4,5 0,5) m/s for class A inline-skates and an energy E2of at least
