8、ing in its facilities. Sample Preparation 1. Determine the number of floor carpet and floor mat specimens needed using Appendix B. 2. Determine the nap direction of the floor carpet. Brush carpet by hand in each of four directions. The direction which exhibits resistance is against nap direction. Th

9、e direction 180 from this is with nap direction. 3. Cut 190 mm x 152 mm (7.5 in x 6 in) floor carpet samples such that the nap direction is parallel to the long edge of the carpet. Cut the number required per Appendix B. 4. Cut 100 mm x 100 mm (4 in x 4 in) square floor mat samples as required in Ap

10、pendix B. Identify the fore-aft direction of the floor mat using an arrow. The fore-aft direction is the direction the mat is oriented with respect to the front and rear of the vehicle (see Figure 1). If the fore-aft direction is not known, identify the nap direction using the same method as in Step

11、 2. Label the nap direction as machine direction and the perpendicular direction as cross-machine direction. If multiple floor mat samples are used, ensure that the direction is labeled consistently among all samples. 5. Punch two holes, approximately 3 mm in diameter, on one side of each floor mat

12、sample per Figure 2. The holes should be 25 mm (1 in) from the edge of the sample, as shown in Figure 2. The edge of the hole should be 3 +/- 1 mm from the edge of the floor mat to prevent tearing of the hole during testing. If only one floor mat sample is required per Appendix B, punch two holes on

13、 a perpendicular side as shown in Figure 2. If six floor mat samples are required per Appendix B, punch holes on only one side of 3 samples and punch holes on a perpendicular side of the other 3 samples, as shown in Appendix B. 6. Remove all excess fiber from the cut edges of the floor mat sample(s)

15、e floor mat sample condition. Schematic diagram is not to scale. See Figure A7 for example floor mat. Procedure 1. Mount aluminum platform and pulley system to the tensile testing machine as shown in Figure A1. 2. Clamp a floor carpet sample to the aluminum platform, making sure that the floor mat w

16、ill be pulled against the nap direction of the floor carpet. See Sample Preparation Step 2 for nap determination procedure. Use as many clamps as necessary to ensure that the floor carpet is fixed flat against the platform. 3. Gently brush the floor carpet with the nap direction 10 times using the c

17、onveyor brush segment (See Figure A5). 4. Affix the 610 mm (24 in) wire leader to the load cell. Loop the other end of the wire leader under the pulley. 25 mm Direction Labeled Ex: Fore-Aft 25 mm 25 mm 25 mm 3 mm 3 mm 3 mm dia.

Attach the looped and crimped 305 mm (12 in.) wire leader assembly to the end of the 610 mm leader wire using an S hook. 6. Place 2 more S hooks through the two free ends of the 305 mm

19、 leader wire assembly. Place the other side of these S hooks through the two holes in one side of the floor mat sample. Ensure the S hooks in the floor mat specimen have the open ends upward, as shown in Figure A3, so hooks do not drag in the floor carpet. 7. Place the floor mat sample at the end of

20、 the floor carpet farthest from the load cell. Align floor mat sample edge parallel to floor carpet sample edge. Ensure that the wires are taut and parallel to the carpet surface but not touching the floor carpet (the pulley may need to be adjusted up or down to obtain parallel position). The appara

21、tus should now appear as shown in Figures A1 and A2. 8. Place the aluminum sled on the floor mat and then place the 3.4 kg weight on top of the sled (Figures A3 and A4). Leave the 3.4 kg weight on for 30 seconds and then remove, leaving the sled in place. 9. Set the crosshead speed to 50 mm/minute.

22、10. Using the tensile tester, pull the floor mat across the floor carpet for a distance of 40 mm. 11. Record the maximum load over the 40 mm extension. See Figures 3 through 6 for different possible load-extension graph behaviors, and the appropriate load to record for each. 12. Remove the sled and

23、the floor mat sample from the floor carpet. 13. If using nonwoven floor carpet, replace the floor carpet sample with a new piece. 14. Gently brush the carpet in the nap direction 10 times as in step 3. 15. Repeat steps 8 through 13 until a total of three runs have been completed in this direction. R

24、eplace the floor mat sample and/or the floor carpet sample each run if required by Appendix B. 16. Test the floor mat in the perpendicular direction (either by rotating the floor mat 90 degrees if only 1 floor mat sample is required, or by testing the remaining 3 samples with holes punched on the pe

25、rpendicular side). A new floor carpet sample shall be used for this direction, per Appendix B.
