EN 614-1 “Safety of machinery Ergonomic design principles Part 1: Terminology and genera

23、l principles“ describes the principles designers should adopt in order to take account of ergonomic factors. This European Standard describes how these principles should be applied to the design of openings which will allow whole body access. This standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standa

24、rd in the sense of the Machinery Directive and associated EFTA regulations. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the dimensions of openings for whole body access as applied to machinery as defined in EN 292-1. It provides the dimensions to which the values given in EN 547-3 are applicable. Value

25、s for additional space requirements are given in annex A. This European Standard has been prepared primarily for non-mobile machinery, there may be additional specific requirements for mobile machinery. Dimensions for passages are based on the values for either the 95 thor the 99 thpercentile of the

26、 expected user population. Values for the 99 thpercentile apply to emergency egress routes. The anthropometric data given in EN 547-3 originate from static measurements of nude persons and do not take into account body movements, clothing, equipment, machinery operating conditions or environmental c

27、onditions. This European Standard shows how to combine the anthropometric data with suitable allowances to take these factors into account. Situations where people are to be prevented from reaching a hazard are dealt with in EN 294. 2 Normative references This European standard incorporates by dated

28、 or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard on

29、ly when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies.

BS EN 547-1:1996+A1:2008EN 547-1:1996+A1:2008 (E) 5 In arriving at values for these dimensions, in addition to the basic anthropometric data it is necessary to add allowances to permit unhindered and safe entry and work

32、ing, taking into account aspects specific to the operator and to the operating conditions. In this respect the following criteria are of particular significance: a) Ease of passage of a person is influenced by: The type of clothing, e.g. light or heavy clothing; Whether tools are being carried, e.g.

33、 for maintenance or repair purposes; Whether additional equipment such as personal protective equipment (including protective clothing), or portable lighting, is being carried or worn; The demands of the task, e.g. posture, nature and speed of movement, lines of sight, application of force; Frequenc

34、y and duration of task; Length of passage, e.g. through a relatively thin wall (wall of a vessel) where there is space for movement at the exit or through a channel type passage; amount of space available to allow for the dynamic nature of movement to escape from danger; the position and size of sup

35、ports for the body, e.g. foot support, hand holds; b) environmental conditions (e.g. darkness, heat, noise, moisture); c) level of risk during the task The allowances to be made for these items will depend on the particular machinery concerned and its application. Annex A gives the application on ho

36、w to apply this European standard in practice. Annex B gives information on the use of notations for dimensions and anthropometric measurements. 4 Passage openings A passage opening is an opening which allows the movement or the entry of a persons entire body, to enable the person to carry out measu

37、res such as operating of control actuators, monitoring of work processes and inspection of work results. This European Standard specifies minimum, not optimum, dimensions for openings. Wherever possible from the safety point of view the dimensions should be increased. Furthermore, passage openings s

38、hould be sufficiently large to allow rapid egress in the event of danger. The allowances x and y in sub-clauses 4.1 to 4.5 are given in annex A. The values for a 1 , h 1etc. are given in EN 547-3.

45、is European Standard according to ergonomic and safety and health principles. This European Standard describes minimum dimensions for openings based on anthropometric measurements, i.e. static measurements of nude persons. The opening dimensions including allowances in this standard do not always ta

46、ke into consideration for example: Aspects of health and safety arising from contact with the passage opening itself; Whether the body positions and movements that must be used in the passage mean any risk to the users safety and health, e.g. in relation to how often or how long the person has to us

47、e the passage; Whether the person has to adopt a certain body position in order to meet the force demands of the task without becoming overloaded; The space required for transportation of equipment, tools and injured or unconscious persons through the passage; The space required for using equipment

48、and tools in the passage in a proper ergonomic way e.g. cleaning, repair and maintenance work; Personal protective equipment the user might wear when passing through the passage; The space requirements for entrance to and exit from the passage; The design of a passage that takes ergonomic principles

49、 into proper consideration usually leads to more efficient work, which is also of economic benefit. For example, in most cases the operation time increases as the size of the opening decreases. A.1 Principles for determining additional space For each of the openings in this European Standard, a number of allowances are described below for conditions that need to be taken into consideration when determining the practical size of a specific passage. Where they are applicable, these conditions determine allowances which shall be ad
