DIN EN 15372:2017-02 EN 15372:2016 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for the safe
23、ty, strength and durability of all types of non-domestic tables including those with glass in their construction. It does not apply to office work tables or desks, tables for educational institutions and outdoor tables for which EN standards exist. With exception of the stability tests, this standar
24、d does not provide assessment of the suitability of any storage features included in non-domestic tables. It does not include requirements for the durability of castors and height adjustment mechanisms. It does not include requirements for electrical safety. It does not include requirements for the
25、resistance to ageing, degradation. The standard has two annexes: Annex A (informative) Additional test requirements. Annex B (informative) Test severity in relation to application. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and ar
26、e 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.

28、llowing terms and definitions apply. 3.1 accessible part part to which access can easily be gained by the user when the table is in its intended configuration of use and for which the probability of unintentional user contact is high 3.2 part accessible during setting up and folding part to which ac
29、cess can only be gained when setting up and folding the table 3.3 shear and squeeze point shear and squeeze points exist if the distance between two accessible parts moving relative to each other is less than 18 mm or more than 7 mm in any position during movement 4 Test conditions General test cond
30、itions shall be in accordance with EN 1730:2012, Clause 4. The tests shall be carried out in the order in which they are listed in Table 2. DIN EN 15372:2017-02 EN 15372:2016 (E)5 5 Safety, stability, strength and durability 5.1 General requirements The table shall be designed so as to minimize the
31、risk of injury to the user. All parts of the table with which the user comes into contact during intended use, shall be designed so that physical injury and damage are avoided. This requirement is met when: a) edges of table tops which are directly in contact with the user are rounded or chamfered;
32、b) all other edges accessible during intended use are free from burrs and/or sharp edges; c) ends of hollow components with a diameter greater than 7 mm and less than 12 mm where the accessible depth is greater than 10 mm, are closed or capped. Movable and adjustable parts shall be designed so that
33、injuries and inadvertent operation are avoided. It shall not be possible for any load bearing part of the table to come loose unintentionally. All parts which are lubricated to assist sliding shall be designed to protect users from lubricant stains when in normal use. 5.2 Shear and squeeze points 5.
34、2.1 Shear and squeeze points when setting up and folding Unless 5.2.2 or 5.2.3 are applicable, shear and squeeze points that are created only during setting up and folding are acceptable, because the user can be assumed to be in control of his/her movements and to be able to cease applying the force
35、 immediately upon experiencing pain. The edges of parts moving relative to each other and creating shear and squeeze points shall be as specified in 5.1. 5.2.2 Shear and squeeze points under influence of powered mechanisms There shall be no shear and squeeze points created by parts of the table oper
36、ated by powered mechanisms, i.e. springs, gas lifts and motorised systems. 5.2.3 Shear and squeeze points during use There shall be no shear and squeeze points created by forces applied during normal use. The loads used for durability tests within Table 2 are considered representative of normal use.
37、 There shall be no shear and squeeze points if a hazard is created by the user during normal movements and actions. 5.3 Stability 5.3.1 Stability under vertical load 5.3.1.1 General When assessing the stability of a table, reference shall be made to EN 1730:2012, 7.1. Tables that can be set to heigh
38、ts both above and below 950 mm shall be tested to both 5.3.1.2 and 5.3.1.3. DIN EN 15372:2017-02EN 15372:2016 (E) 6 5.3.1.2 Test for tables that are or can be set to a height 950 mm The table shall be set to the height most likely to cause overturning, but not more than 950 mm. The table shall not o
39、verturn when tested according to EN 1730:2012, 7.2.2, using the forces specified within Table 2. 5.3.1.3 Test for tables that are or can be set to a height 950 mm The table shall be set to the height most likely to cause overturning, but not less than 950 mm. The table shall not overturn when tested
40、 according to EN 1730:2012, 7.2.3, using 50 % of the forces specified within Table 2. 5.3.2 Stability for tables with extension elements Load each extension element with the load specified in Table 1. The table shall not overturn when tested according to EN 1730:2012, 7.3, using the forces specified
41、 within Table 2. Table 1 Loads in extension elements Component Load Extension elements designed for suspended filing only 4,0 kg/dm Other extension elements 0,5 kg/dm35.4 Strength and durability 5.4.1 General Tables shall be tested for strength and durability according to, and in the order given in
42、Table 2. The guidance for selecting test severity 1, 2 or 3 with due respect for the end use of the product is given in Annex B. Type 1 tables have a main surface 600 mm or more above the floor surface and a surface area greater than 0,3 m2. All other tables are considered as Type 2. Table 2 Stabili
