1、Designation: F2012 18Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification forStationary Activity Centers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2012; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revi

2、sion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety performance specification is intended to mitigate potential safety hazardsassociated with a childs use of

3、a stationary activity center and thereby minimize the risk of injury ordeath. The specific hazards addressed by this specification are seat strength to support the occupant,product tip over, openings for finger entrapment and small parts.1. Scope1.1 This consumer safety performance specification cov

4、ersperformance requirements, test methods and marking require-ments to promote safe use of a stationary activity center by anoccupant.1.2 This consumer safety performance specification is in-tended to minimize the risk of incidents to an occupantresulting from normal use and reasonably foreseeable m

5、isuseor abuse of a stationary activity center.1.3 No stationary activity center produced after the approvaldate of this consumer safety performance specification shall,either by label or other means, indicate compliance with thisspecification unless it conforms to all requirements containedherein.1.

6、4 This consumer safety performance specification is notintended to address incidents and injuries resulting from theinteraction of other persons with the child occupant in thestationary activity center or the incidents resulting from abuseand misuse by children able to walk.1.5 The values stated in

7、inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.6 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 7, of this consumer s
