1、Designation: F3105 14Standard Specification forExternally Loaded Strength Training Equipment, StrengthTraining Benches and External Weight Storage Equipment1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3105; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adopt

2、ion or, in the case of 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.INTRODUCTIONThe goal of this specification is to promote proper design and manufactur

3、ing practices for externallyloaded strength training equipment, strength training benches and external weight storage equipment.Through these specifications, this specification aims to assist designers and manufactures in reducingthe possibility of injury when these products are used in accordance w

4、ith the operational instructions.The equipment user must recognize, however, that a standard alone will not necessarily preventinjuries. Like other physical activities, exercise involving externally loaded strength trainingequipment, strength training benches and external weight storage equipment in

5、volves the risk ofinjury, particularly if the equipment is used improperly or not properly maintained. In addition, userswith physical limitations should seek medical advice and instruction from the fitness facility prior tousing this equipment. Certain physical conditions or limitations may preclud

6、e some persons fromusing this equipment properly and without increasing the risk of serious injury.1. Scope1.1 This specification establishes parameters for the designand manufacture of externally loaded strength trainingequipment, strength training benches and external weightstorage equipment as de

7、fined in 3.1.1.2 It is intended that these fitness products be used in anindoor setting or environment.1.3 It is the intent of this standard to specify fitness productsfor use only by an individual age 13 and older.1.4 This standard is to be used in conjunction with Speci-fication F2276, Test Method

8、s F2571, and Test Methods F3104.1.5 This standard takes precedence over SpecificationF2276 and Test Methods F2571 in areas that are specific toExternally Loaded Strength Training Equipment, StrengthTraining Benches and External Weight Storage Equipment.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be reg

9、arded asstandard. The values in parentheses are for information only.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, 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

35、 8.5. Design and Construction Requirements5.1 Weight DiscsDiscussionThere is great variability inthe dimensions of available weights discs. The dimensions ofthe weight discs are instrumental for requirements in thisstandard and its test method. To this extent it is necessary todefine key dimensions

36、for use with this standard. If the designrestricts the dimensional limits for weight discs and/or thecapacities of each weight post, it will supersede the dimensionsthat follow.5.1.1 The maximum diameter for a weight disc consideredfor use with externally loaded strength training equipment shallbe 4

37、60 mm (18 in.) unless specified by the manufacturer.5.1.2 The minimum thickness for a weight disc consideredfor use with externally loaded strength training equipment shallbe 37 mm (1.45 in.) unless specified by the manufacturer.5.1.3 The maximum size weight disc ( diameter and thick-ness) considere

38、d for use with externally loaded strengthtraining equipment shall be either 45 lb (standard Olympicweight) or 25 kg (metric Olympic weight) unless specified bythe manufacturer.5.2 In addition to the requirements of Specification F2276,the following requirements are applicable.5.2.1 Adjustable StopsA

39、ll Type 2 equipment shall beprovided with adjustable stops to limit the travel of the trainingload. Appropriate warnings and instructions on the use of thestops shall be providedrefer to Sections 6 and 7 of thisdocument.FIG. 5 Type 4 Independent Use Strength Training BenchFIG. 6 Type 5 External Weig

40、ht StorageDumbbellsFIG. 7 Type 6 Multi Function ApparatusFIG. 8 Type 7 Rack StationF3105 1445.2.1.1 Smith Machines, Squat Racks and Lifting CagesThese apparatus shall be equipped with an adjustable stop oneach side that shall limit the downward travel of the lifting bar.One set of stop position shal

41、l stop the bar 711 mm (28 in.) orhigher from the floor (measured to the underside of the bar).This position shall be identified with a site specific labelindicating that for squat exercises the stops shall not be placedbelow this level.5.2.1.2 Sled Leg Press Machines (Type 2b) shall be outfittedwith

42、 permanent dead stops that stop the downward travel of thelifting sled. These dead stops shall stop the sled so that there isat least 266 mm (10.5 in.) of space between the lowest mostportion of the foot platform and the front edge of the seatassembly.5.2.2 Weight Disc RetentionAll weight posts used

43、 forapplication of the training resistance shall contain a retentionmeans.Acceptable means include: Detent pins, clips or anglingof the weight post above horizontal. If angling of the weightpost is used then the weight post shall be angled 2 or greaterwith respect to horizontal throughout the entire

44、 range ofmotion.5.2.2.1 If weight posts are designed for weight plate sizeless than 45 lb or 25 kg (as defined in 5.1), then the unit shalllimit the use of such discs through the use of a site specificlabel. Institutional Equipment may use mechanical interferenceto limit the capacity as referenced i

45、n 5.2.4.2.5.2.3 Barbell Support Hook DimensionsThe rear part ofthe barbell hook shall be at least 80 mm (3.15 in.) higher thanthe front of the hook. The depth of the hook (front to back)shall be a minimum of 40 mm (1.57 in.). The height of the frontof the barbell hook, a, shall be between 20 mm (0.7

46、8 in.) and40 mm (1.57 in.) when measured from the bottom of a 30 mm(1.18 in.) barbell at rest in the hook. See Fig. 9.5.2.4 Weight Disc ClearanceThe distance between weightdiscs and other movable or fixed parts shall be greater than 25mm (0.98 in.).5.2.4.1 Weight discs on the same weight post are ex

47、emptfrom this requirement.5.2.4.2 If a mechanical interference device is used to limitthe use of certain size weight plates, such as a pin parallel tothe weight posts, then it shall be exempt from the clearancerequirement between the weight disc and mechanical interfer-ence device. A site specific w

48、arning shall be present in theimmediate area to warn as to the maximum weight plate size.For consumer equipment, weight plate size restriction may bespecified in the owners manual.5.3 StabilityDiscussionExternally Loaded StrengthEquipment requires additional stability guidelines over thoseset forth

49、in Specification F2276. The equipment shall be stablein the unloaded, intrinsically and the extrinsically loadedconditions. The equipment shall be stable with weights appliedto only one side and both sides of the equipment, supportedlifting bar or carriage. In addition, weight posts intended forstorage shall be evaluated separately from weight posts in-tended for training resistance. The most onerous condition forstability shall be evaluated.5.3.1 Notice to the owner or user of the product that themachine meets industry standards
