BS EN 1335-3:2009EN 1335-3:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies mechanical test methods for determining the stabilit

21、y, strength and durability of office work chairs. This European Standard does not specify type approval tests for chair components. The tests are designed to be applied to an article of furniture that is fully assembled and ready for use. The tests consist of the application, to various parts of the

22、 item, of forces simulating normal functional use, as well as misuse that might reasonably be expected to occur. The tests are designed to evaluate properties without regard to materials, design/construction or manufacturing processes. The test results are only valid for the article tested. When the

23、 test results are intended to be applied to other similar articles, it is important that the test specimen be representative of the production model. Tests carried out according to this standard are intended to demonstrate the ability of the item to give satisfactory service in its intended environm

24、ent. The safety requirements are specified in EN 1335-2 and additional loads, masses and cycles for functional tests can be found in Annex C (informative). The tests have been developed for units/components that have not been in use. However, when properly justified, they may be used for fault inves

25、tigation. Assessment of ageing and degradation is not included. The tests are not intended to assess the durability of upholstery, i.e. filling materials and covers. Data are given for the design of seat-loading pads in Annex A (normative) and for the design of stability-loading pad in Annex B (norm

26、ative). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 1335-2:2009, Of

27、fice furniture Office work chair Part 2: Safety requirements 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 office work chair piece of seating furniture for one person, with a back rest, with or without arm rests, whose upper part, which inc

28、ludes the seat, can rotate in the horizontal plane and can be adjusted in height NOTE Other adjustments may be included. 3.2 column office work chair component that connects the base and the seat structure NOTE A column normally incorporates a seat height adjustment and swivel mechanism. BS EN 1335-

29、3:2009EN 1335-3:2009 (E) 5 3.3 locking device device which inhibits the movement of the seat action and/or the back rest 3.4 arm rest length distance between vertical lines through its front and rear edges NOTE In the case of an arm rest, which is not horizontal or which is curved, the length is mea

30、sured in a horizontal plane 20 mm below the highest point of the arm rest. 3.5 supporting point castor or glide 4 General test conditions 4.1 Preliminary preparation The unit shall be assembled and/or configured according to the instructions supplied with it. The most adverse configuration shall be

31、used for each test, see Table 1. For testing a range of related chair models, only worst case(s) need to be tested. If mounting or assembly instructions are not supplied, the mounting or assembly method shall be recorded in the test report. Fittings shall not be re-tightened unless specifically requ

32、ired by the manufacturer. If the configuration must be changed to produce the worst case conditions, any re-tightening of the fittings shall be recorded in the test report. Unless otherwise stated all tests shall be carried out on the same sample. The tests shall be carried out in indoor ambient con

33、ditions. If during a test the temperature is outside of the range of 15 C to 25 C, the maximum and/or minimum temperature shall be recorded in the test report. In the case of designs not addressed in the test procedures, the test shall be carried out as far as possible as described, and deviations f

34、rom the test procedure recorded in the test report. Before beginning the testing, visually inspect the unit thoroughly. Record any defects so that they are not assumed to have been caused by the tests. Carry out measurements if specified. 4.2 Test equipment Unless otherwise specified, the tests may

35、be applied by any suitable device because results are dependent only upon correctly applied forces and not on the apparatus. The equipment shall not inhibit deformation nor cause unnatural deformation of the unit/component, i.e. it shall be able to move so that it can follow the deformation of the u

36、nit/component during testing. All loading pads shall be capable of pivoting in relation to the direction of the applied force. The pivot point shall be as close as practically possible to the load surface. If a loading pad tends to slide use a slip resistant material between the loading pad and the

37、surface being tested. 4.3 Application of forces The forces in the static load tests shall be applied sufficiently slowly to ensure that negligible dynamic force is applied. Each force shall be maintained for not less than 10 s and not more than 15 s. BS EN 1335-3:2009EN 1335-3:2009 (E) 6 The forces

38、in durability tests shall be applied at a rate to ensure that excessive heating does not occur. Each force shall be maintained for (2 1) s. The forces may be applied using masses. 4.4 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated, the following tolerances are applicable: Forces: 5 % of the nominal force Masses

39、: 1 % of the nominal mass Dimensions: 5 mm of the nominal dimension on soft surfaces 1 mm of the nominal dimension on all other surfaces Angles: 2 of the nominal angle The accuracy for the positioning of loading pads shall be 5 mm. The tests specify the application of forces. Masses may, however, be

40、 used. The relation 10 N for 1 kg may be used for this purpose. 4.5 Sequence of testing All applicable tests shall be carried out on the same sample. The sequence of the safety tests shall be as specified in EN 1335-2:2009, 4.2. If functional tests shall be carried out, this shall be done in the seq

41、uence of Table C.1 after completing all the safety tests specified in EN 1335-2. 4.6 Inspection and assessment of results After completion of each test, inspect the unit again. Record any changes including: a) fracture of any component or joint; b) loosening of any joint intended to be rigid, which

42、can be demonstrated by hand pressure; c) deformation or wear of any part or component such that its function is impaired; d) loosening of any means of fixing components to the unit; e) changes that may affect stability.
