1、Designation: F2085 10aStandard Consumer Safety Specification forPortable Bed Rails1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2085; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in pa

2、rentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety specification addresses portable bed rail incidents that were identified by theU.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

3、In response to incident data supplied by the CPSC, this consumer safety specification attempts tominimize the following type of potential hazard through labeling and performance requirements:entrapment between the portable bed rail and mattress in the bed rail structure and entanglement onprotrusion

It is intended that this specification will be updated whenever substantive informationbecomes available that nece

5、ssitates additional requirements or justifies the revision of existingrequirements.This consumer safety specification is not intended to address all the hazards of bed rails that areeither blatantly misused or used in a careless manner that disregards the instructional literature andwarning statemen

6、ts provided with each bed rail.1. Scope1.1 This consumer safety specification establishes require-ments for the performance of portable bed rails. It also containsrequirements for labeling and instructional literature.1.2 This consumer safety specification is intended to mini-mize hazards to childre

7、n resulting from normal use andreasonably foreseeable misuse of portable bed rails.1.3 For the purpose of this consumer safety specification, aportable bed rail is a device intended to be installed on an adultbed to prevent children from falling out of bed. These bed railsare intended for children w

8、ho can get in and out of an adult bedunassisted (typically from 2 to 5 years of age).1.4 No bed rail as defined in 3.1.1 that is produced after theapproval date of this consumer safety specification shall, eitherby label or other means, indicate compliance with this speci-fication unless it conforms
