This part of ISO 16840 specifies a

20、 test method for the measurement of the perspiration dissipating characteristics of wheelchair cushions under test conditions that simulate body loading on support surfaces with flat and contoured profiles. The test method is intended to be applicable to a wide variety of seat cushions that are used

21、 across the world. This part of ISO 16840 specifies apparatus to measure dissipation characteristics (of perspiration) of seat cushions and the approach to be employed in measuring these characteristics. It is the intention of ISO/TC 173/SC 1 to further evaluate the outcomes of this test method and

22、their clinical implications with the aim of developing an International Standard on this topic.

29、 cushion and buttocks have four possible states: a) existing between a cushion and the buttock (such as with a sealed vinyl cover); b) dissipated into the cushion cover but not into the cushion; c) dissipated more generally into both the cover and cushion; d) drawn away from the cover (which becomes

30、 dry) and into the cushion. We can evaluate the dissipation behaviour of the cover/cushion system by measuring the changing impedance at a location of interest over time following a discharge of simulated perspiration into the area between the rigid cushion loading indenter and the cushion. The test

31、ing system has four elements: a) an RCLI simulating temperature, weight, and shape of a loading buttock; b) a discharge system that releases a discrete amount of solution that simulates perspiration; c) a measurement system of the changing impedance associated with changing solution concentration ne

32、ar the electrodes (indirectly indicating the absorption of the cover/cushion); d) a test environment of temperature and humidity. 5 Test apparatus The following test apparatus is necessary to complete the test method of this part of ISO 16840. 5.1 Perspiration rigid cushion loading indenter (PRCLI)

33、5.1.1 Shape of PRCLI The PRCLI is formed from 4 mm 1 mm polycarbonate sheet formed according to the specifications for a rigid cushion loading indenter (RCLI) with the inner surface of the shell formed to match the contour specified in ISO 16840-2:2007 Annex A (Figure A.1). 5.1.2 Temperature control

34、 on the PRCLI The PRCLI shall include a means of maintaining the temperature at 27 C 2 C at the inferior surface of PRCLI. 5.1.3 Loading mechanism A means to load the cushion through the PRCLI with a vertical force of 500 N 10 N as in ISO 16840-2. 5.1.4 Discharge mechanism A system to discharge 10 m

35、l 1 ml of 0,01 % sodium chloride (NaCl) solution within 1 s from a hole 0,2 mm in diameter (see Figure 2) located at the ischial tuberosity of the PRCLI (see Figure 1).

The electrode shall be a thin plate with diameter of 10 mm 1 mm and thickness of 0,1 mm

37、, preserving smoothness of the buttock surface. The centre of each electrode shall be 15 mm 1 mm from the centre of the hole as shown in the cross sectional diagram of the PRCLI. 5.2 Electrical impedance measurement system An electrical impedance measurement system able to measure electrical impedan

38、ce between the two electrodes, ranging from 0,001 M to 1,0 M, at a sampling rate of 1 Hz. The electrodes shall be connected to the impedance measurement box external to the PRCLI by appropriately shielded electrical wires to minimize electrical noise from the test environment. NOTE Alternating curre

39、nt should be selected as the applying current for measurement to prevent electrolysis of the electrodes when in contact with the solution. 5.3 Test environment A test environment maintained at 23 C 2 C and 50 % 5 % relative humidity as specified in ISO 554 and which includes the means to measure and

40、 record its temperature and humidity during the test period. 6 Preparation for testing Precondition the cushion to be tested by holding it in the test environment of 23 C 2 C, and 50 % 5 % relative humidity for 24 h prior to initiating the test. 7 Test method 7.1 Commence measurement of the impedanc

41、e with a sampling rate of 1 Hz, with the PRCLI not in contact with the cushion/cover surface. ISO 2014 All rights reserved 3 PD ISO/TS 16840-11:2014 ISO/TS 16840-11:2014(E) 7.2 After 1 min 5 s, apply the PRCLI with 500 N load to the cushion and allow 1 min 5 s for settling. 7.3 Between the PRCLI and

42、 the cushion discharge 10 ml 1 ml of the NaCl solution from the tube within 1 s. 7.4 Continue to record the impedance until at least 1 h 1 min has elapsed from the commencement of the test. In some cases, change can be very slow and extended testing will be required. 8 Test report The test report sh
