27、 standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. Internationa
28、l organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules
29、given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at lea
30、st 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 15536-1 was prepared by the European Committee for S
31、tandardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 122, Ergonomics, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 3, Anthropometry and biomechanics, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement). ISO 15536 consists o
32、f the following parts, under the general title Ergonomics Computer manikins and body templates: Part 1: General requirements The following parts are under preparation: Part 2: Structures and dimensions BS EN ISO 15536-1:2008ISO 15536-1:2005(E) ISO 2005 All rights reserved vIntroduction The structure
33、 of safety standards in the field of machinery is as follows. a) Type-A standards (basis standards) give basic concepts, principle for design, and general aspects that can be applied to machinery. b) Type-B standards (generic safety standards) dealing with one or more safety aspect(s) or one or more
34、 type(s) of safeguards that can be used across a wide range of machinery: type-B1 standards on particular safety aspects (e.g. safety distances, surface temperature, noise); type-B2 standards on safeguards (e.g. two-hand controls, interlocking devices, pressure-sensitive devices, guards). c) Type-C
35、standards (machinery safety standards) dealing with detailed safety requirements for a particular machine or group of machines. This part of ISO 15536 is a type-B standard as stated in ISO 12100-1. When provisions of a type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B sta
36、ndards, the provisions of the type-C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of the type-C standard. This part of ISO 15536 concerns requirements which are, to a great extent, independent both of t
37、he state of the art in the currently rapidly developing field of computer manikins and body templates, and of the availability of up-to-date, detailed and representative anthropometric data. The physical characteristics of the human body are one of the starting points in the design of spaces, furnit
38、ure, machines and other equipment. Computer technology is advancing rapidly and allows the construction of computer manikins to model the human body and to simulate human activities. Anthropometrically accurate manikins or body templates can be used, for example, to visualize the geometric relations
39、hip between the human body and the physical environment. Various functions of evaluation can also be integrated into the manikin and manikin system, for example, indication of reach zones, visualization of viewing fields, biomechanical calculation of required strength, and simulation of movements. C
40、omputer manikins are intended to reduce the need for real test persons and the evaluation of physical models and prototypes. However, real persons provide not only their true physical dimensions but also their differing functional and perceptual capabilities as well as their assessment of the ease o
41、f performance, comfort and other properties of the design (see ISO 15537). The computer manikin permits quick, easy and early identification of possible dimensional shortcomings. Critical dimensions restricting operations, such as fitting into a confined space or reaching objects can be quickly asse
42、ssed in relation to extreme body measurements. The dimensioning would otherwise require tests with a large number of test persons. In the use of manikins, several ergonomic aspects (e.g. anthropometric, postural, visual, strength-related, dynamic) are addressed in one and the same test situation. As
43、 a universal design tool, the manikin is particularly useful for entirely novel designs, when no recommendations on the dimensions exist and no reference situations for full-scale evaluation are available. In the design process, the use of computer modelling with a manikin facilitates information ex
44、change and collaboration between different specialists and users. BS EN ISO 15536-1:2008ISO 15536-1:2005(E) vi ISO 2005 All rights reservedWhen used appropriately, computer manikins accelerate the entire design process and reduce the costs of designing. The ergonomic design process is presented as a
45、 whole in EN 614-1. The use of computer manikins does not ensure appropriate design solutions automatically, and they can even be misused. The designer may use them inappropriately, for example, by permitting awkward postures, or by providing too little space for movements. It is possible that he or
46、 she is not aware of the inherent limitations of computer manikins, either in anthropometric, postural or biomechanical respects. As the complexity of the manikin systems increases, the links to the data on these human characteristics can also become difficult or impossible to trace. The manikins an
47、d manikin systems available so far vary with respect to the functions and features they afford, as well as to their accuracy and usability. At the present developmental stage, the most sophisticated manikin systems may require powerful hardware and specially trained users, and they may be unavailabl
48、e to many designers. The most simple ones may be easy to use but are of restricted value for designing. The systems may also differently emphasise such components as anthropometric accuracy, biomechanical capabilities, graphical visualisation, geometric design, simulation and animation. The choice o
49、f manikin and the associated design system is, to a great extent, a trade-off between these different features. Broad experience of the field and a high level of care are necessary when choosing and using the manikin system, and for controlling the effects of other external parameters, however sophisticated the manikin system may be.
