17、71.3 -1995. The present revision was prepared by theB71.3 Committee on Snow Throwers as part of OPEIs continuing work on standards. The principal purpose of this revision was to update the scope, to include commercialturf machine attachments, address hand-in-chute accidents, and eliminate sometests

18、that are not relevant. Consensus for this standard was achieved by use of the Canvass Procedures. Suggestions for improvement of this standard will be welcome. They should be sentto the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, Inc., 341 South Patrick Street, Alexandria,VA 22314. The following organization

19、s and individuals, recognized as having an interest in thestandardization of safety requirements for snow throwers, were contacted prior to theapproval of this revision of the standard.

32、rth-Moving Machinery - Human Physical Dimensions of Operators and Minimum Operator space envelope 3 Definitions 3.1 arctic mitten: A large insulated mitten (see Figure 1). 3.2 barrier: The vertical plane determined by an obstruction, such as a handle or steering wheel, that restrains the operator (s

33、ee Figure 2). 3.3 brake: The mechanism used to: (a) decelerate, (b) stop, or (c) hold a vehicle or components. 3.4 braking distance: The distance traveled between the point of the first application of the brake control and the point at which the machine or combination comes to rest. 3.5 clutch: A de

34、vice used for engaging or disengaging the load from the power source. 3.6 collector: An auger or similar device used to gather snow. 3.7 collector housing: The structure, framework, or integral shields that limit access to, and egress of, material from the collector. 3.8 durable label: A label used

35、as a safety sign or for instruction or identification and that meet or exceed the requirements of clauses 8 and 16 of this standard. 3.9 engine (motor) kill switch: A normally off, shutoff control for the engine (motor). 3.10 engine (motor) start: The change of engine (motor) state from not producin

36、g power to producing power. 3.11 guard or shield: A part or an assembly that restricts access to the hazard areas.

37、 3 3.12 hazard zone: A three-dimensional area that might be hazardous for a person to occupy (see Figure 2). The hazard zone moves with the discharge chute and does not include the space behind the discharge chute that is guarded by the discharge chute. 3.13 impeller: A power-driven device that impa

38、rts energy to discharge the snow. For the purposes of this standard, when the collecting function of a device is combined with the impelling function, the device will be called an “impeller.” 3.14 impeller housing: The structure, framework, or integral shield that limits access to, and egress of, ma

39、terial from the impeller. 3.15 legible lettering: Sans-serif gothic uppercase lettering such as standard medium, folio medium, news gothic bold, or equivalent. Minimum letter height should be one unit of height for every 500 units of viewing distance. 3.16 line voltage circuit: A circuit involving a

40、 potential that is not to exceed 130 volts and is in excess of those of a low-voltage circuit. (See 2.3 of ANSI/UL 73.) 3.17 low-voltage circuit: A circuit involving a peak open-circuit potential of not more than 42.4 volts supplied by a primary battery, by a standard Class 2 transformer, or by a su

41、itable combination of a transformer and a fixed impedance, which, as a unit, complies with all performance requirements for Class 2 transformers. (See 2.4 of ANSI/UL 73.) 3.18 man (95th percentile): The physical dimensions of an adult male as defined in SAE JISO 3411. 3.19 manual start: Utilization

42、of operator force to rotate engine for starting purposes. 3.20 neutral return: A device that will return the ground speed control selector to the neutral position from either the forward or reverse ground travel positions. 3.21 operating control: Any device for operating the snow thrower. Included a

43、re the engine or motor starting and stopping controls (excluding choke and primer), all drive engaging controls, the drive-speed-changing controls, and the snow discharge movable-guide control. A rope or recoil starter shall not be considered a control. 3.22 operator control position: The area withi

44、n which all controls requiring operation from the operator position shall be located (see Figure 2). 3.23 operator position: The area occupied by the operator during normal operation of the machine. See Figure 2. 3.24 operator-presence control (normally off control): A control designed so that it wi

45、ll automatically stop power to a drive when the operators actuating force is removed. 3.25 parking brake system: A system used to hold one or more brakes (or braking means) continuously in an applied position. 3.26 projected exhaust outlet area: This is the projection of the exhaust outlet openings

46、perpendicular to the perimeter of the openings. For multiple openings, such as perforated outlets, the perimeter is determined by connecting the adjacent outermost holes with a series of tangent lines to circumscribe the area of the outlet holes pattern. (A 360 hole pattern on the outer perimeter of

47、 the exhaust system will require connecting lines at each end of the hole pattern.) For tubular or ducted outlets, the projection is determined by an extension from the wall of each outlet.
