BS EN 12586:2007+A1:2011EN 12586:2007+A1:2011 (E) 4 Introduction Accidents caused by soothers are few and any resulting in the death of a child are almost unknow

18、n. However, a small number of children die as a result of accidents where a soother is involved, but in these cases death almost always results from strangulation by a cord being used to hang the soother around the childs neck. Such cords are usually either home-made or made for some other purpose,

19、e.g. a coiled key ring holder. This European Standard is the first for this type of product and its main aim is to eliminate the risk of strangulation. This has only been made possible by severely restricting the length of the soother holder. The length should be sufficient for its purpose while not

20、 being so long that the strap can encircle the neck and strangle even the smallest child. The lack of reported incidents involving accidents or fatalities since its introduction would suggest that this standard has achieved this main aim. A functional soother holder is not to be considered as a toy.

21、 However, a soother holder may contain a part or be designed in such a way as to present a double use. That is the soother holder, in addition to its functional use, also has a significant playing value and therefore could also be considered as a toy 2. In these instances the entire product becomes

22、a toy as well as being a soother holder and needs to meet the requirements of both the Toy Directive 3 as well as this European Standard. Chemical requirements for silicone rubber, vulcanized rubber and for thermoplastic elastomers have each been considered by the Technical Committee. They have not

23、been included in this standard at this stage and will be reconsidered when further information becomes available. It is considered that for organic chemical compounds, the requirements, sample preparation and extraction, and methods of analysis provided in EN 71-9, EN 71-10 and EN 71-11 are suitable

24、 for soother holders. According to where they are applicable, they have been used in this European Standard. A Normative Annex has been included which contains translations of warning phrases into the main European languages. BS EN 12586:2007+A1:2011EN 12586:2007+A1:2011 (E) 5 1 Scope This European

25、Standard specifies safety requirements relating to the materials, construction, performance, packaging and labelling of soother holders (see B.1). It includes test methods for the mechanical and chemical requirements specified. All products that are intended to connect a soother for babies and young

26、 children with any other product are included in the scope of this European Standard. This European Standard is intended to provide safety requirements for soother holders which are generally comprised of a strap with the holder at one end which retains the soother whilst the other end has a clasp t

27、hat attaches to the childs garment. Where a soother holder has been classified as a toy or considered to have significant play value then the soother holder will have to meet the essential safety requirements for toys as stated in the Toy Directive (88/378/EEC) in addition to those in this European

28、Standard. The addition of decorations or providing animal shaped fasteners should not automatically make the soother holder a toy; however the addition of a toy component to the soother holder will require that both the soother holder and the toy meet the essential safety requirements as stated in t

29、he Toy Directive. Where there is doubt concerning classification of a soother holder as a toy then advice should be sought from an EU Toy Notified Body or the Member States Competent Authority for toys (see B.2). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the app

42、 the requirements in this European Standard. 5.1.2 Integrity The components of the soother holder shall be so fixed that they cannot become detached when tested in accordance with the test methods given in 6.1.7. The soother holder shall have at least one permanently attached fastener (see 5.1.10).

43、If there are two fasteners e.g. a garment fastener (see 3.3) and a soother fastener (see 3.4) then detachment of one of the fasteners shall not constitute a failure provided the detached fastener conforms to the requirements of 5.1.11.
