25、es requirements for bunk beds and high beds for use by one occupant per bed. DIN EN 747-1:2015-08 EN 747-1:2012+A1:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope !This European Standard specifies requirements for the safety, strength and durability of bunk beds and high beds for domestic and non-domestic use. It applies to bun
26、k beds with a height to the upper surface of the top bed base of 600 mm or more above the floor and to high beds with a height to the upper surface of the bed base of 600 mm or more above the floor. The loads and forces in the strength and durability tests apply to beds with an internal length great
27、er than 140 cm and a maximum bed base width of 120 cm.“ The dimensional requirements are intended to minimise the risk of accidents, particularly to children. The strength and durability requirements are intended to represent use by one occupant per bed. Safety requirements for other products includ
28、ed in a bunk bed/high bed, for example a table or storage furniture, are not included in this standard. This European Standard does not apply to bunk beds and high beds used for special purposes, including but not limited to prison, the military and fire brigades. 2 Normative references The followin
29、g documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

There shall be no open ended tu
34、bes. All assembly and pilot holes shall be made by the manufacturer. Vertically protruding parts on the top of the upper bed shall either: a) have an uninterrupted minimum horizontal dimension of 300 mm without any other vertical protrusion (see Figure 1 a), or b) have an uninterrupted vertical dime
35、nsion of at least 600 mm measured from the highest adjacent part (see Figure 1 b), or c) where the largest dimension is 50 mm or more (see Figure 1), have a maximum height at which a line, drawn at 45 touches it, of not more than 5 mm above at least one adjacent/adjoining horizontal component; the m
36、aximum vertical protrusion above that component shall not exceed 20 % of the largest horizontal dimension of parts (see Figure 1 c), or d) where the largest dimension is less than 50 mm, have a maximum height at which a line, drawn at 45 touches it, of not more than 5 mm above at least one adjacent/
37、adjoining horizontal component; the maximum vertical protrusion above that component shall not exceed 10 mm (see Figure 1) of parts (see Figure 1 d). It shall not be possible to dismantle the bed or its components without the use of a tool. The dimensional requirements apply both before and after te

39、2 Accessible holes gaps and openings 4.1.2.1 General There shall be no accessible holes, gaps or openings with a diameter/width greater than 7 mm and less than 12 mm, unless the depth is less than 10 mm when tested according to 5.3 of EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015. DIN EN 747-1:2015-08 EN 747-1:2012+A1:2015
40、 (E) 8 Additionally, accessible holes, gaps and openings in safety barriers, bed bases and treads, shall fulfil the requirements specified in the respective clauses, i.e. 4.1.3 Bed base(s), 4.1.4 Safety barriers and 4.1.5 Ladder or other means of access. All other accessible holes, gaps or openings
41、shall be either: a) at least 12 mm but not more than 25 mm, when tested in accordance with 5.3 of EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015; or b) at least 60 mm but not more than 75 mm, when tested in accordance with 5.3 of EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015; or c) at least 200 mm. 4.1.2.2 Head entrapment on the outside of the bun
42、k bed/high bed The following requirements apply only to openings, where the lowest part is 600 mm from the floor. Partially bound, V and irregular shaped openings shall be constructed so that: a) portion B of the template shall not enter the opening to the full thickness of the template when tested
43、in accordance with 5.3.2 of EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015; or b) the apex of portion A of the template shall contact the base of the opening when tested in accordance with 5.3.2 of EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015.“ 4.1.3 Bed base(s) The bed shall have a means (e.g. fastening) of preventing the side rails from bending
44、 outwards. This requirement is fulfilled if the bed base(s) or its elements do not fall down when tested with the horizontal outwards force specified in 5.4.2 of !EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015“. All gaps between the bed base and the side or ends shall not exceed 25 mm when measured in accordance with 5.3 of

48、 located on one long side only. Gaps between the ends of the safety barrier and the bed end structures shall not exceed 7 mm, when tested according to 5.3 of !EN 747-2:2012+A1:2015“. DIN EN 747-1:2015-08 EN 747-1:2012+A1:2015 (E) 9 In non-domestic use only, the structure of the building can act as a safety barrier, provided that the bed is fastened to it in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. The safety barriers shall be secured against unintentional loosening. This requirement is fulfilled if the s
