1、Designation: F1063 09 (Reapproved 2018)Standard Practice forFunctional Inspections and Adjustments of Alpine Ski/Binding/Boot Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1063; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of

2、revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONAdhering to these guidelines may help reduce the risk of injuries resulting from impropermechani

3、cal functioning of releasable alpine binding systems. Skiing involves inherent risks and injurycan result from simply falling down, impact with an object, or from many other actions. Many injuriesare unrelated to system function and a properly functioning system cannot protect the skier in allsituat

33、d user with an appropriately functioning system with appro-priate release torque setting(s).4.2 The definitions and tolerances defined in this practice donot necessarily apply to procedures incorporating an inspectioninterval or schedule, in which such procedures are specified byF1063 09 (2018)2the

34、binding manufacturer. This practice is not intended to be amethod for evaluating equipment design.NOTE 2Refer to Practice F1064 for definitions and tolerances per-taining to the evaluation of equipment once in use.5. Procedure5.1 InspectionsTwo types of inspection procedures aredescribed in this pra

35、ctice: (1) procedures to check the systemfor appropriate function, and (2) procedures to check thesystem for appropriate release torque calibration (see AppendixX4). In all procedures requiring a measured release value, thesystem testing device should meet Specification F1061 and bechecked by the me

36、thod described in Annex A1.5.1.1 Functional InspectionsThese inspections shall in-clude inspection of all boot-to-binding adjustments andclearances, appropriate elastic travel (see 6.1), symmetry oftorsional release, boot-binding compatibility (see 6.3), andother inspections recommended by the equip

37、ment manufactur-ers (see Appendix X4).5.1.2 Release Torque Value InspectionsThe release torquevalue of the system, as assembled for use, shall be inspectedwith the use of a system testing device (see Annex A1). Adescription of release torque value inspections and tolerances isincluded in this practi

38、ce (see Section 7 and Appendix X4).5.2 Reference Torque Value SelectionReference torquevalues for release torque may be selected using Annex A2 ortables supplied by the binding manufacturer or system testingdevice manufacturer, which are in accordance with PracticeF939. Reference torque values above

39、 the upper limit specifiedby Practice F939 or above the binding manufacturers recom-mendations should not be used. Values below the lower limit orbelow the binding manufacturers recommendations may beused unless the binding manufacturer recommends againstsuch procedures.6. Functional Inspections6.1

40、Test for Elastic Travel and RecenteringThe systemshould be exercised to ensure the boot or plate can travel adistance specified by the manufacturer and return freely towithin 2 mm of the original position. This test should be madein all directions of release and in a manner specified by thebinding m

41、anufacturer. If no displacement is specified, thendisplacement of 5 mm measured at the toe or heel (asappropriate) should be used and the test should be performedby any device or method capable of displacing the boot or platethe necessary distance.6.2 Test for Symmetrical ReleaseThe system should be

42、tested for twist release in both the clockwise and counterclock-wise directions with a device of the type specified in AnnexA1.6.3 Test of Boot/Binding CompatibilityUsed as a diagnos-tic inspection for determining the compatibility of a boot andbinding used in a system. The boot should be of a shape

43、,composition, construction, and condition acceptable to thebinding manufacturer. Functional inspections specified by thebinding manufacturer to determine the compatibility of theboot and binding should be performed. If no functionalinspection procedures are specified by the bindingmanufacturer, a fu

44、nctional inspection should be performed todetermine the difference in test results between a clean, dryboot/binding system and the same system after lubrication ofall boot/binding interfaces. This functional inspection shouldbe made in all directions of release specified by the bindingmanufacturer,

45、using a device of the type specified in Annex A1(see 5.1).6.3.1 The lubricant used for this test should be applied in athin film and may be of any type specified by the boot orbinding manufacturer. If unspecified, a liquid detergent or soapor a lubricant of a type normally accepted in the maintenanc

46、eof the binding, such as a grease or silicone spray lubricant, maybe used. If a spray lubricant is used, ensure that overspray doesnot contaminate other systems.6.3.2 If there is reason to believe a boot/binding interface orsystem has been contaminated, a common dishwashing soap ordetergent solution

47、 may be used to help clean the system,provided all surfaces are flushed with clean water afterwards.7. Release Torque Inspections7.1 Tests for Twist ReleaseA test should be performed todetermine the torque required to release the binding in twist(Mz) about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the b

48、oot sole.This test should be performed using a device of the typedescribed in Annex A1 and should be performed in bothclockwise and counterclockwise directions of release. Testresults should be within the appropriate inspection tolerance.Units that exceed the inspection tolerance should be readjuste

49、dto test within the inspection tolerance. When an initial visualindicator setting is used (see Appendix X4), readjustmentshould not be attempted if test result(s) exceed the limit forreadjustment without first taking corrective action as specifiedby the binding manufacturer.7.2 Tests of Forward Lean ReleaseA test should be madeto determine the torque required to release the binding inforward lean. This test should be made using a device of thetype described in Annex A1. Test result(s) should be within theinspection tolerance. Units t
