21、close to a burning object such as a fire beside the wheelchair, overheating of any electrical or electronic device on the wheelchair, and contact from sparks or flames (such as welding sparks, cigarettes, or matches).Wheelchair occupants are at particular risk of injury or death from these fires and

22、 resulting fumes because they may not have the ability to move away from the wheelchair.Wheelchairs can be considered to be comprised of the following components:a) structural components such as the frame, wheels, etc. which are essential to the mechanical integrity of the wheelchair;b) postural sup

23、port devices, such as sling seats, sling back supports, arm supports, foot supports, etc., which are attached to the wheelchair and are primarily intended to give postural support to the wheelchair occupant (these can also be intended to aid in pressure redistribution);c) devices to manage tissue in

24、tegrity, such as seat and back support cushions which are intended to have primarily a clinical function to minimize the risks of skin damage (these can also be intended to control or accommodate posture);d) power-related components such as motors, energy sources, controllers etc., which are require

25、d for the functioning of powered devices on wheelchairs.Each of the above components has a different severity of risk associated with its likelihood of igniting and its resulting harm to the wheelchair occupant. ISO standards have been published or are in preparation to specify requirements and test

26、 methods for the above categories of components to help manufacturers and purchasers of wheelchairs to design and procure wheelchairs and their components which are appropriate for the risk of ignition balanced against the functional needs of the wheelchair occupant. The aim of these ISO standards i

27、s to provide appropriate alternatives to using furniture-based flammability standards, to reflect the uses and purposes of wheelchairs and their accessories.The development of an ISO standard on the resistance to ignition of structural components see list item a) above has not yet commenced. The mos

28、t likely sources of ignition are proximity to a heat source such as an electric radiator or domestic fire or a heat source such as a lighted match or cigarette falling onto the structure.ISO 717616 is primarily concerned with the resistance to ignition of postural support device components of a whee

29、lchair see list item b) above. These typically include arm supports, sling seats, sling back supports, lower leg supports, foot supports, lateral supports, head supports, etc. The most likely source of ignition is an open flame source falling onto the components surface or into gaps between surfaces

30、. Consequently that standard is written around resistance to a heat source equivalent to a lighted match in contact with a test sample of an assembly of the upholstered parts composite materials in both a vertical and horizontal orientation.The power related components see list item d) above are the

31、 subject of ISO 717614 which specifies requirements to prevent overheating in electrical components that could lead to a fire.The tissue integrity devices see list item c) above are the subject of this part of ISO 16840, and permit a less stringent resistance to ignition than in ISO 717616, based up

32、on the priority of these components for their clinical function, which might override the need for a high resistance to ignitability.The requirements of this part of ISO 16840 have been set at a basic minimum level and are less severe than mandatory requirements in some countries. This part of ISO 1

33、6840 has been produced to allow for the use of materials that would not meet the requirements of ISO 717616, but the manufacturer is required to make the case as to why ISO 717616 could not be employed. Good practice is also to use ISO 2014 All rights reserved vBS ISO 16840-10:2014ISO 16840-10:2014(

34、E)materials which minimize the risk of release of toxic substances as a result of ignition. Materials chosen are to comply also with biocompatibility requirements (ISO 109931 and ISO 1099310).The day to day usage of a wheelchair may affect its materials resistance to ignition through cyclic loading,

35、 movement of materials, washing, cleaning, etc. Manufacturers will often take this effect into account as part of their risk assessment when selecting materials for their products to minimize the effects of this normal use. However, although this part of ISO 16840 can be used on parts that have been

36、 used, etc., the test samples specify new or unused parts.Different environments commonly encountered by some wheelchair occupants may also affect the flammability of materials. For example, home oxygen systems, delivery systems for drugs carried in an inflammable medium, etc., can turn an inert mat

37、erial into a flammable one. Dust and other materials accumulated within the chair have also been found to be a source of readily ignitable material. Wheelchair manufacturers and occupants should be aware of these risks, and design and use wheelchairs accordingly as covered by ISO 14971.This part of

38、ISO 16840 describes testing an assembly of the composite of materials as used in the wheelchair component, because the resistance to ignition of these materials individually can be quite different from those when assembled as a composite. Hence, the results of this part of ISO 16840 do not give any

39、indication of the resistance to ignition of any of the separate individual materials of the test sample.vi ISO 2014 All rights reservedBS ISO 16840-10:2014Wheelchairs Resistance to ignition of non-integrated seat and back support cushions Part 10: Requirements and test methods1 ScopeThis part of ISO

40、 16840 specifies requirements and test methods to assess the resistance to ignition by smouldering cigarette equivalent of non-integrated components of a wheelchair intended to protect tissue integrity.The test measures only the resistance to ignition by smouldering cigarette equivalent of the items

41、 tested and not the ignitability of the complete wheelchair. It gives an indication, but cannot guarantee, the ignition behaviour of the assembled non-integrated devices of a complete wheelchair.This part of ISO 16840 does not apply to resistance to ignition of structural parts of a wheelchair, nor

42、does it cover postural support devices. This part of ISO 16840 does not cover changes in resistance to ignition as a result of regular washing or use.This part of ISO 16840 allows for the separate testing of removable non-integrated components of a wheelchair which are normally used in the horizonta

43、l plane (e.g. a seat cushion) from those normally used in the vertical plane (e.g. a back support).This part of ISO 16840 describes testing an assembly of the composite of materials as used in the removable non-integrated component. The results of this part of ISO 16840 do not give any indication of

44、 the resistance to ignition of any of the separate individual materials of the test sample.NOTE 1 The intent of this part of ISO 16840 is primarily to cover removable cushions whose described purpose is that of protecting skin tissue against pressure, shear, and maceration related damage.NOTE 2 The

45、requirements of this part of ISO 16840 have been set at a basic minimal level and are less severe than mandatory requirements in some countries.Where practical, it is advisable that manufacturers use materials with superior resistance to ignition. The manufacturer is required to make the case as to

46、why ISO 717616 could not be employed rather than this part of ISO 16840.NOTE 3 Requirements for the control of risks from sources of fire created by electrical and electronic components are included in ISO 7176142 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the appli
