9、A1:2003, published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It supersedes BS 6659-1:1986, which is withdrawn. At the Formal Vote stage, the UK voted against prEN 1471 because it considered that the scope of this test method should be restricted to use with the specific pieces of test app

10、aratus for which it is suitable, i.e. Vetterman drum and Hexapod tumbler. It considered that the current wording, which allows use of the method for assessing changes caused by “any testing device”, is much too broad and that the “state of the art” referred to in the Scope clause should be described

11、 in a Precision clause. Annex NA provides information on the limitations of the standard for any organization using it as the basis of classification or guidance. The committee would welcome comments arising from any aspect of the application of this standard. These would be considered at the first

12、review of the standard.

29、or coverings Vocabulary. 3 Definitions For the purpose of this European Standard, the following definitions are based on those in ISO 2424. 3.1 overall change in surface appearance the assessed overall change of appearance is the difference between a fatigued and an unfatigued specimen. The degree o

30、f change is expressed by a single overall grade. Changes in structure, thickness, colour and/or pattern of a textile floor covering may contribute to overall change in appearance. It is not always possible to distinguish clearly between the factors since each may have an interaction with others 3.1.

31、1 change in structure; textural change visible change in configuration of loops and tufts and/or fibres at the use-surface of a textile floor covering 3.1.1.1 loss of tuft definition the bursting, opening and untwisting of the pile yarn, and/or decrimping of the fibres, in the use-surface of a texti

32、le floor covering. This can cause a decrease of the pile definition 3.1.1.2 crushing; flattening loss of thickness of a textile floor covering under the action of a static or dynamic load 3.1.1.3 felting; matting loss of pile definition of a textile floor covering due to entanglement and compression

33、 of pile fibres 3.1.2 Surface roughening 3.1.2.1 hairiness; filamentation the protrusion of fibres above the normal level of the use-surface of a textile floor covering and not removable by brushing or suction 3.1.2.2 cobwebbing an extreme form of hairiness/filamentation in which the fibres are enta

35、.2.4 sprouting the release and appearance during use of extra-long tuft legs which were accidentally trapped within the pile of a textile floor covering during manufacture 3.1.3 change of pattern definition change in the colour appearance of patterned textile floor coverings due to mechanical action

36、. A change of pattern definition may be caused by a change in the clarity of the contour lines 3.1.4 change in colour the change or apparent change in colour, assessed by a large grey scale, that may result from one or more of the following: change in orientation of the pile (shading); whitening/cha

37、lking; fading; glossing; colour bleeding; staining; soiling. 4 Principle The overall change in appearance of a fatigued specimen is assessed by visual comparison with reference scales. The dominant factors (structure, roughening, pattern, colour) are reported when appropriate. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Illumi

38、nation device, comprising sufficient fluorescent tubes 1)of correlated colour temperature 5 200 K 300 K, mounted at a height above the viewing table to give an intensity of light across the viewing platform of 1 500 lx 200 lx and in such a way as to illuminate the specimens vertically from above and

39、 allow uninterrupted viewing of the table (minimum height 1 600 mm above table). The surroundings shall be neutral and darkened. The intensity of the light shall be checked by the use of a luxometer. The lifetime of the tubes, as given by the manufacturer, shall not be exceeded. 5.2 Rotary viewing t

40、able, enabling the specimens to be viewed from all directions under the standard illumination. The diameter of the viewing table is at least 1 000 mm to enable the test specimens and references to be laid side-by-side. The colour shall be matt dark neutral grey. The table shall be constructed so tha

41、t its surface is as close as possible to the floor, to achieve a 45 angle to the eyes of the assessors. 5.3 Large grey scale, for assessing change in colour, comprising five pairs of grey reference shades (200 mm 150 mm), each representing a contrast corresponding to grade 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 (see EN 20

42、105-A02). Scales including intermediate half-grades may also be used. The use of small (35 mm 28 mm) grey scales may lead to incorrect assessment and these may not therefore be used. 1) Fluorescent tubes such as PHILIPS TLD 95 are suitable. EN 1471:1996 BSI 19 January 2004 5 5.4 Reference scales, fo

43、r the assessment of the appearance change of textile floor coverings, comprising 11 sets of five pairs, showing reference levels of overall change in appearance from grade 5 (no change) to grade 1 (extreme change), each pair including two zones: an “original” zone; a “fatigued” zone representing the

44、 defined grade of change in appearance. The description and sources of the 11 reference scales produced from different types of textile floor coverings are given in Annex A. 6 Selection and preparation of specimens Select for fatiguing and assessment specimens which are representative of the carpet

45、sample, and also a corresponding area of at least 200 mm 200 mm for the unfatigued sample. Mark the specimens with a reference direction (which may be the direction of production, if known) in order to be able to align them in the same direction for the assessment. 7 Assessment procedure 7.1 General

46、 The assessments shall be made independently by at least three experienced assessors. NOTE The assessor should acquire experience in assessing and should undertake comparative assessments with other laboratories at regular intervals (e.g. twice a year). Switch on the illumination device (5.1) at lea

47、st 1 h before the assessment session, to allow the fluorescent tubes to reach their full operating output. The assessors shall sit around the rotating table (5.2) at a distance of approximately 0,5 m to the periphery, so that they view the specimens from a distance of approximately 1,5 m to 1,8 m an

48、d at an angle of approximately 45 . Select an appropriate reference scale (see Annex A). Arrange the fatigued and the unfatigued specimens side-by-side, with the reference directions aligned, on the rotating table positioned centrally under the illumination device. Lay the selected scale side-by-sid

49、e with the specimens. If specimens of one article are treated in steps of increasing intensity (e.g. castor chair test) they have to be assessed together. 7.2 Overall change procedure Each assessor shall assess the contrast between the fatigued and the unfatigued specimens by comparing against the grades of the reference scale. The contrast shall be assessed from all directions whilst the table is slowly rotated. As the table is turned, the appea
