1、Designation: F2264 14Standard Consumer Safety Specification forNon-Powered Scooters1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2264; 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 p

2、arentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety performance specification addresses scooter incidents that were identified bythe Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). W

3、ith the recent introduction and popularity ofnew lightweight scooters, related injuries to children less than 15 years old have dramaticallyincreased. The purpose of this consumer safety specification is to establish nationally recognizedsafety requirements for nonpowered scooters.1. Scope1.1 This c

4、onsumer safety specification covers establishmentof performance requirements, test methods, and labeling re-quirements to minimize the hazards to users of scooters asidentified in the introduction.1.2 This specification is intended to cover use of thisproduct for children ages 5 years and older.1.3

5、No scooter produced after the approval date of thisspecification shall, either by label or other means, indicatecompliance with this specification unless it conforms to allrequirements herein.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are

6、 mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.5 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest method portion, Section 7, of this consumer safety speci-fication: This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety con

7、cerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

United States13.1.6 scooter, na vehicle that has two or more wheels, alow platform, a vertical element for the user to grasp, and amethod of steering and is

16、propelled by the user pushing onefoot against the ground with the other foot resting on theplatform.3.1.7 static load, na vertically downward load applied bya dead weight or other means.4. General Testing Requirements4.1 The unit shall be completely assembled, unless other-wise noted, in accordance

17、with the manufacturers instructions.4.2 The product to be tested shall be in a room with anambient temperature of 73 6 9F (23 6 5C) for at least 1 hprior to testing. Testing shall then be conducted within thistemperature range unless a test specifically requires anothertemperature.4.3 All testing re

18、quired by this specification shall be con-ducted on the same unit unless otherwise specified (see 7.1).5. General Requirements5.1 The unit shall conform to the federal regulations speci-fied in 2.2 of this specification both before and after all testing.5.2 Prior to testing, any exposed parts shall

19、be smooth andfree of splinters, spurs, and burrs.5.3 Latching MechanismsAny unit that folds shall have alatching device or other provision in the design that willprevent the unit from unintentional folding when properlyplaced in the manufacturers recommended use position. Prod-ucts with latching dev

20、ices for prevention of unintentionalfolding shall be tested in accordance with 7.9. During and uponcompletion of this test, the unit shall remain latched in itsmanufacturers recommended use position.5.4 Folding Mechanisms, Hinges, and ClearancesThisrequirement is intended to eliminate possible crush

21、ing,laceration, or pinching hazards that might occur in foldingmechanisms and hinges. Examples are the motion of a hingethat produces a scissor action and the changing clearances atthe hinge line between two hinged portions, such that the gapwill admit fingers at one position of the hinge but not at

22、 allpositions. This requirement is also intended to eliminatepossible hazards that may be caused by changing clearances.The different pinch clearance requirements listed reflect thedifferent modes of entrapment or pinching that may be encoun-tered. Scooters shall meet these requirements after they a

23、retested in accordance with Section 7.5.4.1 Hinge-Line ClearanceScooters having a gap orclearance along the hinge line between a stationary portion anda moveable portion that weighs more than12 lb (0.2 kg) shallbe so constructed that, if the accessible gap at the hinge linewill admit a316-in. (5-mm)

24、 diameter rod, it will also admit a12-in. (13-mm)diameter rod at all positions of the hinge.5.4.2 Accessible Clearances for Moveable SegmentsThisrequirement concerns clearances between movable segmentson scooters intended for children, where the potential forpinching or crushing fingers or other app

25、endages exists. Itincludes, but is not limited to, wheels and rigid-wheel wells,fenders, or the radial clearance between the wheels and chassisof scooters. If such accessible clearances admit a316-in.(5-mm) diameter rod, they shall also admit a12-in. (13-mm)diameter rod in order to prevent the trapp

26、ing of fingers.5.4.3 Inaccessibility of MechanismsMechanisms in scoot-ers shall not have any accessible part of the mechanism presenta pinch or laceration hazard.5.5 LabelingWarning labels or warnings applied directlyonto the surface of the product shall be permanent when testedin accordance with 7.

27、10.6. Performance Requirements6.1 All components specified under Test Methods 7.1 7.7shall not show any evidence of material separation, visiblecracking, or component failure that presents a hazard to theuser. Permanent deformation of the scooter deck shall beallowed after the test, provided there i

28、s no contact with theground by any structural or rigid component when the scooteris stood upright, resting on all wheels with the steering in theforward direction.6.2 Brakes (for Scooters with Brakes)The braking system(hand or foot operated) shall prevent the scooters wheel fromrotating more than14

29、revolution when tested in accordancewith 7.8.7.

31、ally. Theload shall be applied for a period of 5 min.7.3 Handle/Stem Compression Test:7.3.1 Close the handle bar/stem adjustment lock in theuppermost position according to the manufacturers instruc-tions. If a quick release mechanism is used (that is, no toolsrequired), the maximum force used to clo

32、se the quick releaseshall not exceed 15 lbf (67 N) when applied to a point14 in. (6mm) from the end of the lever.7.3.2 Apply a static 100-lb (45-kg) load in compression tothe center top of the handlebar gradually over a period of 5 sand maintain for 10 s.7.4 Handle/Stem Fatigue Test:7.4.1 Secure the

33、 deck of the scooter so that it cannot moveand the front wheel so that it cannot rotate about its steeringaxis.7.4.2 Apply a 60-lb (267 N) total force 1 in. (2.5 cm) fromthe ends of both hand grips in the upward/rearward direction,45 from vertical, then in the opposite (downward/forward)direction.7.

34、4.3 Repeat 7.4.2 for 5000 cycles, not to exceed 1 cycle persecond.F2264 1427.5 Grip Retention Test/Handle Retention TestApply a15-lbf (67 N) to the grips along the axis of the handlebargradually over a period of 5 s and maintain for 10 s.7.6 Curb Impact Test:7.6.1 A scooter shall be impacted in the

35、forward directiononto the front wheel with an energy of 135 J and an impactvelocity of 10 6 1 mph (4.5 6 0.5 m/s).7.6.2 The type of suspension shall ensure that the energy isabsorbed by the front wheel of the scooter.7.7 Dynamic Strength Test:7.7.1 A 44 lb (20 kg) mass shall consist of a 6.0 in.
