8、ber bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmen

9、tal and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Direct

10、ives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies

11、 casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 24415-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 173, Assistive products for per

12、sons with disability.ISO 24415 consists of the following parts, under the general title Tips for assistive products for walking Requirements and test methods: Part 1: Friction of tips Part 2: Durability of tips for crutchesISO 24415-2:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved iiiBS ISO 24415-2:2011Introd

13、uctionThe characteristics of tips attached to the bottom of assistive products for walking are essential to ensuring user safety. The tips are continuously and repeatedly subjected to load and friction while walking; durability against this repeated load is important both for safety and for cost eff

14、ectiveness.Tips are used on many different assistive products for walking, including canes, walking sticks, crutches, walking frames, rollators, and walking tables. They are produced in many different sizes and are made of many different materials, depending on the sort of assistive products for wal

15、king to which they are applied. A variety of bottom shapes are available on the market for the many kinds of assistive products for walking.Generally, durability of rubber is estimated based on a wearing resistance test using test pieces rather than finished goods. However, tips for assistive produc

16、ts for walking are used in several different ways, therefore it is favourable to perform the test on manufactured tips (not manufactured test pieces) to obtain realistic data. For example, tips for crutches can endure less abrasion, because the load on tips for crutches is higher than that on tips f

17、or other assistive products for walking.This part of ISO 24415 specifies requirements and test methods for durability of tips for crutches to enable developers, manufacturers, distributors, and health care providers to determine whether tips have the necessary durability.ISO 24415-2:2011(E)iv ISO 20

19、, and is not applicable to tips manufactured for special purposes. The requirements and test method are based on tips being used with an ordinary gait on dry and flat walking surfaces.Crutches include elbow crutches, forearm support crutches, and axillary crutches, as described in ISO 9999.NOTE Spec

20、ial purposes might include walking on ice and/or snow.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

No inner part shall be visible, no tear

25、 shall appear, and the tip shall be correctly fixed on the loading rod. All three tested samples shall fulfil the conditions mentioned above.5 Apparatus5.1 Test deviceThe test device consists of a test track, a motion control mechanism, a loading force mechanism and a load cell. Figure 2 shows a tes

26、t track and a rod. A motion control mechanism and a loading force mechanism cooperate during the test. When the loading rod with the tip is in the upright position, perpendicular to the test track, the loading force is at its maximum. The whole test apparatus (including the load cell) shall be rigid

27、.5.2 Test trackThe test track shall be a flat board, made of concrete. The test track shall be placed on a flat base during the test. Frictional characteristic of the surface on the test track is defined as “walkway surface traction” which shall be greater than 80 BPN when tested in accordance with

The load shall

29、alternate from 0 N at the beginning and end of the test cycle, to 500200+( )N when the loading rod is perpendicular to the test track.A loading force mechanism may consist of a pneumatic actuator and a loading rod. The actuator generates pushing and pulling motions that allow an axial loading force

The axis of relative rotation shall be on the top surface of the test

31、track.5.5 Load cellA load cell that has been calibrated to an accuracy of 2 % shall measure the axial load. It is recommended that the capacity of the load cell be up to 1 000 N and that the load cell be connected with a waveform-viewing device (oscilloscope, etc.) or a data-recording system.123cab1
