This standard specifies additional safety requirements for cableways intended for permanent install
30、ation for use by children. 2 Normative references The following 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. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced do
31、cument (including any amendments) applies.

32、 equipment and surfacing Part 6: Additional specific safety requirements and test methods for rocking equipment 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 cableway item of childrens playground equipment whereby children can travel on or
33、along a cable under the force of gravity Note 1 to entry: See Figure 1. 3.2 hanging type cableway cableway equipped with a suspension assembly which includes a grip for the user 3.3 seating type cableway cableway equipped with a suspension assembly which includes a seat 3.4 starting point area in wh
34、ich the user can reach the grip or seat and set the equipment in motion 3.5 area of travel area in which the user can travel freely 3.6 terminus area furthest away from the starting point that the user can reach by travelling across the area of travel 3.7 traveller moving part that, by influence of
35、gravity, moves the user along the cable Note 1 to entry: See Figure 1. BS EN 11764:2017EN 1176-4:2017 (E) 5 3.8 suspension element part of the structure between the traveller and the seat or grip 3.9 suspension assembly assembly of components hanging beneath the traveller EXAMPLE Suspension elements

37、 6 4 Safety requirements 4.1 General Cableways shall conform to EN 1176-1 unless otherwise specified in this part of EN 1176. 4.2 Framework and fixing points for the cable Framework and fixing points for the cable shall be designed to withstand the computed loads (static and dynamic) transmitted by
38、the cable, in accordance with EN 1176-1. There shall be an adjusting device so that the correct sag can be maintained for the life of the cable. 4.3 Calculation of forces acting on the cable of a cableway The cable shall be designed so that it can withstand the forces acting upon it according to EN
39、1176-1:2017, Annex A. 4.4 Stops When tested in accordance with Annex A, the stop at the terminus shall progressively slow down the traveller until it stops and the suspension element shall not swing through an angle of more than 45, as shown in Figure 4. NOTE This test includes an allowance for star
40、ting speed. 4.5 Traveller The traveller shall be constructed so that it cannot slip out of place and the sides are closed to prevent any access by the user to moving parts from the side. Openings for the cable may allow the 8 mm finger rod (see EN 1176-1:2017, Figure D.10) to pass through but the ro
41、d shall not get squeezed between any moving parts when it is inserted by the length of 70 mm. There shall be only one traveller on the same cable. The traveller and suspension element shall be designed such that it does not cause damage to the cable during use. 4.6 Suspension assembly For seating ty
42、pe cableways rigid suspension elements shall not be used. If a flexible suspension element is used it shall be designed to prevent risk of strangulation. If a pulling device for the traveller is provided it shall be designed to prevent risk of strangulation. 4.7 Cableways arranged in parallel For ca
43、bleways arranged in parallel, the distance between the cables shall be at least 2 000 mm. 4.8 Grips For hanging type cableways, the grip shall be constructed to ensure that the user can easily release their hold at all times. If the grip is an enclosed loop, it shall not be made from flexible materi
44、al that could tighten around the users arm or hand thus preventing the user from releasing their grip quickly. Enclosed loops shall conform to the entrapment requirements in EN 1176-1:2017, 4.2.7. It shall not be possible to climb on the grip. BS EN 11764:2017EN 1176-4:2017 (E) 7 If the grip is rigi
45、d and does not form a loop, the ends of the grip shall conform to EN 1176-6:2017, Annex E. NOTE This is to reduce the risk of eye injury from the ends of projecting hand supports. Suspension type cableways from which users will hang by the hands shall conform to EN 1176-1:2017, 4.2.4.6. 4.9 Seats Se
46、ats shall be designed so that the user can leave the cableway quickly and at all times. Seats which form loops or circular rings shall not be used. When tested in accordance with EN 1176-2:2017, Annex C, peak values of acceleration shall be not greater than 50 g and the average surface compression s
47、hall not exceed 90 N/cm2. 4.10 Speed When tested in accordance with Annex B, the maximum speed of the traveller shall not exceed 7 m/s. 4.11 Free height of fall The free height of fall, for all cableway types, shall be measured unloaded, and with the seat or hand grip hanging vertically below the ca
48、ble. In the sitting position the free height of fall, H2, shall not exceed 2 000 mm. In the hanging position the free height of fall shall be measured from the grip position minus 1 500 mm to the surface below, as the user should not be able to access the cable (see Figure 2). In the hanging positio
49、n, the free height of fall, H2, shall not exceed 1 500 mm (see Figure 2). The sagging of the cable and thus the distance ground/cable, ground/grip and ground/seat are dependent on temperature. The minimum and maximum dimensions specified apply to a reference temperature of 15 C.
