39、tation of children and luggage. 4.2 Sampling A single trailer shall be subjected to all of the following tests. For all cycle trailers, where the superstructures have a variable design, all combinations of equipment shall meet all relevant requirements. Accessories shall, if included by the manufact

40、urer, be included in the tests. In cases where the test method allows an element of discretion on the part of the tester, the tester shall use his discretion to produce a situation which he considers most likely to result in a failure. 4.3 Order of tests The tests shall be performed in the following

41、 order: a) inspection test; b) dynamic test; c) static test. For the order of tests, see Annex C. 4.4 Tolerances Unless stated otherwise, the tolerances given in Table 2 shall apply to nominal values.

Use the test arm and test leg fixed at the shoulder and at the thigh of the test body and determine which parts of the cycle trailer can be touched (see Figure 1). For the dimensions of the test arms and

44、test legs, see Table A.1. No two parts of a test limb shall be bent more acutely than 90. No part of the test leg shall pass behind a vertical plane through points B.

If the height of the connecting device is more than 400 mm above the road surface, it shall be verified that it is possible to decelerate the bicycle and trailer combination at not less than 0,35 g according to the calculation in Annex B. Cycle trailers with a total weight not exceeding 30 kg are exempted from this requirement. NOTE When the user connects the fully loaded trailer to an
