The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical

18、 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, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with

In particular the different approval criteria needed fo

It contains test methods and sets minimum require

31、ments for static, impact, and fatigue strength of both the overall wheelchair and individually stressed components.Several parts of this International Standard have been reviewed. In particular: the fatigue testing elements, including the speed and size of slat of the two-drum test machine, and the

32、number of test cycles for both two drum and drop tests have been reviewed through empirical testing and confirmed; the failure criteria have been clarified, and permissible adjustments and repairs more clearly defined to minimize variation between laboratories; a more precisely defined setup procedu

33、re for the reference configuration of adjustable wheelchairs as given in ISO 7176-22; static, impact, and repeated load test procedures for Postural Support Devices (PSDs) have been revised and are contained in ISO 16840-3.It is anticipated that all parts of this International Standard will continue

34、 to be developed and future revisions may include the results of ongoing work in the following areas: consideration of whether the fatigue test requirements should be revised for wheelchairs intended for use in less resourced settings; review of the test methods and apparatus to facilitate testing i

35、n less resourced settings; further development of the test dummies to improve the way in which they load the backs of test wheelchairs and, in particular, to improve their suitability for use with wheelchairs with low back supports.

36、4Wheelchairs Part 8: Requirements and test methods for static, impact and fatigue strengths1 ScopeThis part of ISO 7176 specifies requirements for static, impact, and fatigue strength of wheelchairs including scooters. It specifies the test methods for determining whether the requirements have been

37、met. It also specifies requirements for disclosure of the test results.The test methods can also be used to verify the manufacturers claims that a product exceeds the minimum requirements of this part of ISO 7176.This International Standard applies to occupant- and attendant-propelled manual wheelch

38、airs and electrically powered wheelchairs intended to provide indoor and outdoor mobility for people with disabilities.NOTE 1 For the purposes of this part of ISO 7176, “wheelchair(s)” is used as an abbreviation for manual wheelchair(s) or electrically powered wheelchair(s), including scooter(s), to

39、 which the requirements and test methods are applied.NOTE 2 Clauses of this part of ISO 7176 will be used as a basis for developing requirements and test methods for wheelchairs not covered by this part of ISO 7176.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively r

45、ponent shall show evidence of visible cracks, be fractured, or have become detached, with the following exceptions.1) Readjustment of postural supports is allowed after each of the tests in Clauses 8 and 9.2) Re-tightening, readjusting, or refitting of components that are identified in the operators

46、 manual as operator-adjustable components is allowed at 25 % intervals during each of the multi drum, drop, and manual brake fatigue testing procedures (Clause 10). Operator adjustable components, as identified in the operators manual, may not be adjusted using tools unless the tools are supplied wi

47、th the wheelchair. If there are operator adjustable components, fatigue test equipment may be stopped at 25 % plus or minus 5 % intervals, to determine if re-tightening, readjusting, or refitting of operator-adjustable components is required. Re-tightening, readjusting, or refitting shall then be pe

48、rformed, following the procedures outlined in the operators manual. Restart the test equipment after re-tightening, readjusting, or refitting has been performed.3) Re-tightening, readjusting, or refitting of any other component is not allowed.4) During the fatigue testing (Clause 10), the following

49、wear items, if they are identified in the operators manual, may be replaced no more than twice per item: tyres (including solid tyres), inner tubes, drive belts, castor wheel rubber. In the case of castor wheels that are a single integral part, replacement is only permitted because of wear or failure of the running surface, but not for failure of the wheel structure or other elements (e.g. bearings). No other wear items may be replaced.5) Cracks in surface finishes, such as paint, that do not extend i
