20、ction This European Standard has been prepared to provide a means of conforming with the essential safety requirements of the Machinery Directive and associated EFTA regulations. Purchasers ordering to this standard are advised to specify in their purchasing contract that the supplier operates a cer
21、tified quality assurance system applicable to the relevant part of this standard (e.g. EN ISO 9001) to ensure themselves that products claiming to comply consistently achieve the required level of quality. While producing this standard it was assumed that negotiation occurs between the manufacturer
22、and the user to decide whether the thimble shall have a pointed or truncated end and whether zinc coating is required. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for non welded general purpose steel thimbles produced from plate having dimensions in accordance with Figure 1. Th
23、e thimbles are intended to be used in slings made with six or eight strand steel wire ropes from 8 mm to 60 mm diameter complying with EN 12385-4. Reeving thimbles and solid thimbles are not covered by this standard. The hazards covered by this standard are identified in clause 4. 2 Normative refere
24、nces This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of the
25、se publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995, Safety of machinery - Basic concepts, general principles for design -

28、 Standard, the terms and definitions given in prEN 12385-2 together with the following apply. BS EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008 (E) 5 3.1 nominal size (of a thimble) size of the nominal diameter of the rope (d) for which the thimble has been primarily designed 4 Hazards This clause c
29、ontains the hazards and hazardous situations, as far as they are dealt with in this European Standard, identified by risk assessment significant for this type of machinery and which requires action to eliminate or reduce risk. Accidental release of a load, or release of a load due to failure of a st
30、eel thimble puts at risk, either directly or indirectly, the safety or health of those persons within the danger zone. In order to provide the necessary strength of steel thimble this standard gives requirements for the design, manufacture and testing to ensure the specified levels of performance ar
31、e met. Errors in the fitting of accessories can also lead to premature failure and this standard contains dimensional requirements to allow correct fit. Table 1 contains all the hazards, which require action to reduce risk identified by risk assessment as being specific and significant for general p

NOTE If the thimble is surface coated
34、 with zinc, the amount should be at least 120 g/m2 and should be applied in accordance with ISO 1461. 5.3 Construction Thimbles shall be free from any flaws or defects. NOTE A small gap at the joint may be tolerated. BS EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008 (E) 6 NOTE 2 There is no requirem
35、ent regarding whether thimbles should be pointed or not (see Figure 1), and this should be subjected to agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer, see introduction. Thimbles shall be capable of being opened and closed once without the application of heat, wide enough to allow insertion of
36、 a component of 1,5 times the nominal rope diameter. 5.4 Type test A type test shall demonstrate that the design, material and method of manufacture of the thimble having dimensions meeting the requirements of this standard can withstand the maximum loading conditions likely to be imposed upon it un
37、der normal conditions of use. Any change, for example in the material specification, method of manufacture or critical dimensions, likely to affect the safety of the thimble, shall require that the type test in 6.1.2 be undertaken on the modified thimble. After testing in accordance with 6.1.2 and w

39、on 6.1 Type test 6.1.1 Apparatus 6.1.1.1 Rope The rope diameter shall be the same as the nominal size of the thimble. The rope construction shall be one from Table 6, 7, or 8 of EN 12385-4:2002 with a steel core. The rope grade shall be 1770. 6.1.1.2 Pin The load shall be applied to the thimble thro
40、ugh a pin having a diameter of 1,5 d. 6.1.2 Method The method of test shall be in accordance with 6.4.1 of EN 12385-1:2002. Carry out two tests on each size of thimble of each design, material and method of manufacture. Fit the thimble to a rope of the size specified in 6.1.1.1 and load it axially t
41、o 27 % of the minimum breaking force of the rope as given in EN 12385-4:2002. After release of the test load measure dimension 1 of Figure 1 for any permanent reduction. The reduction shall not be greater than that specified in 5.4. If any one thimble fails to pass, test a further two thimbles of th
42、e same size, design, material and method of manufacture. If these pass then the thimbles shall be deemed to have passed the type test. If one or both fail the re-test or if both thimbles fail the original test, the thimbles shall be deemed to have failed the type test. 6.2 Dimensions The linear dime
43、nsions of the thimble shall be measured with an instrument accurate to 0,1 mm and having a resolution of 0,01 mm. The measured dimension shall lie within the range specified in Figure 1. The angle shall be measured with an instrument accurate to 5 with a resolution of 1. 6.3 Material The suppliers r
44、ecords shall be used to verify the material used. 6.4 Construction Thimbles shall be visually inspected for surface defects liable to injure the user or damage the rope. 7 Certificate The manufacturer or supplier shall, on request, provide a certificate giving the following information: a) a stateme
45、nt of conformance to this European Standard; b) !name and address of manufacturer or where applicable the authorized representative;“ BS EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008EN 13411-1:2002+A1:2008 (E) 8 c) nominal size of thimble (rope diameter); d) a means of referencing the certificate to the thimble.
