The lateral file cabinet shall not tip over when tested

37、as follows. The cabinet shall be placed on a hard, level surface in its operating position. The top compartment shall be evenly loaded with typical filing material with the weight of 0.471 g/cc. All other compartments shall be empty and closed. The loaded top compartment shall be fully extended and

38、a horizontal force (pull) of 44.5 N shall be applied at the center point of the compartment front. 2.10.3 Rigidity. The medium duty, lateral file cabinet shall have a maximum deflection of 6.4 mm for the 762 mm and 9 14 mm widths and 6 mm for the 1067 mm widths when tested as follows. The cabinet sh

39、all be placed on a hard level surface in its operting position and the base shall be restricted from vertical and lateral movement. All compartments shall be empty and the top drawer or shelf shall be fiilly extended. A force of 178 N shall be applied perpendicular to the side of the cabinet within

40、25 mm of the top front corner. The deflection measurement shall be taken along the top front edge of the cabinet while the force is being applied. 2.10.4 SM.

The test shall be repeated once on each side. 2.10.5 Interlock safety. The

44、cabinet shall not allow any two-compartment combination to extend in excess of 150 mm when tested as follows. Perform the test after completion of the ANSYBIFMA tests and the Rigidity and Shock tests. The cabinet shall be placed on a level surface in its operating position with all drawershhelves em

45、pty. Simultaneously, exert a force perpendicular and outward fi-om the face of the cabinet on the two top drawers, two top shelves or drawer and shelf, whichever is applicable. The force shall be at the center of a drawer pull or the bottom center of a shelf, as appropriate, and shall be approximate

46、ly 26.7 N for each compartment. Repeat this test on all combinations of two compartments.

The cabinet shall be placed on a har

47、d level surface. A soft load (sand or shot) of 45.4 kg shall be uniformly distributed over the shelf nearest the center of the cabinet for a period of 15 minutes minimum. If the shelf deflects in excess of 5.6 mm while loaded or has and permanent deflection in excess of 1.6 mm after having the load

48、removed, the cabinet shall be have failed the test. 2.10.6.2 Cabinet shock test. The cabinet shall not exhibit any permanent damage to the lock or interlock mechanisms, any failure of rivets or welds, any damage (except case) or loosening of components, or any failure of the drawers and shelves to p

49、ass the pull test when tested as follows. This test is to be performed prior to any other tests. The cabinet shall be placed on a hard, surface resting on its leveling glides in their retracted position. All drawers and shelves shall be loaded with typical filing material with a weight of 0.471 g/cc and the cabinet locked with the key removed. The cabinet shall be tilted to one side until the opposite side bottom edge is 200 mm fi-om the floor or to its balance point, whichever is less. A 200 mm lo
