20、 Standard specifies safety requirements and test methods for all types of domestic storage furniture excluding kitchen furniture (see EN 1153) and special function storage furniture, e.g. for use as a changing unit. Safety depending on the structure of the building is not included, e.g. the strength
21、 of wall hanging cabinets includes only the cabinet and its parts. The wall and the wall attachment are not included. It is intended to prevent serious injury through normal functional use, as well as misuse that might reasonably be expected to occur. It should be understood that the test results fu
22、lfilling the requirements do not ensure that structural failure will not eventually occur as a result of habitual misuse or after an excessively long period of service. NOTEA European Standard, Glass in furniture Test methods is under preparation. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorp
23、orates by dated 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 Europ
24、ean Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. ISO 48, Rubbers, vulcanized or thermoplastic Determination of hardness (hardness between 10 IRHD and 100 IRHD). EN 1153, Kitchen furniture Safety requ
25、irements and test methods for built-in and free standing kitchen cabinets and work tops. 3 Definitions For the purpose of this standard the following definitions apply. 3.1 free standing unit a unit not attached or not intended to be attached to the structure of the building 3.2 wall mounted unit a
26、unit supported entirely by one or more walls of the building 3.3 top mounted unit a unit supported by the ceiling 3.4 storage area/volume spaces in furniture for storage, e.g. in drawers and on shelves, bottoms and tops 4 General test conditions 4.1 Preliminary preparation Before any of the tests ar
27、e commenced, the item shall be old enough to ensure that it has developed its full strength. At least four weeks in normal indoor conditions shall have elapsed between manufacturing (or assembly) and testing in the case of glued joints in timber and the like. The furniture shall be tested as deliver
28、ed. If of knock-down type, it shall be assembled according to instructions supplied with the furniture. If the furniture can be assembled or combined in different ways, the most adverse combination shall be used for each test. The same is valid for units that can be combined with other units or comp
29、onents. The test shall be carried out in indoor conditions, but if during a test the atmosphere temperture is outside the range of 15 8C to 25 8C, the maximum and/or minimum temperature shall be recorded in the test report. Tighten any assembly fittings before testing. Further retightening shall not
30、 take place unless it is specifically required by the manufacturer. The tests refer to furniture parts with conventional function. Combination of tests may be necessary to cover the properties of multi-function components, e.g. a shelf that can be pulled out on runners shall be tested for strength o
31、f shelf supports as well as for strength as a drawer. 4.2 Test equipment The forces in the static load tests shall be applied sufficiently slowly to ensure that negligible dynamic force is applied. Unless otherwise specified, the tests may be applied by any suitable device because results are not de
32、pendent upon the apparatus. 4.3 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated the following tolerances are applicable: forces: 5 % velocities: 5 % masses: 0,5 % dimensions: 1,0 mm angles: 28 4.3.1 Positioning The accuracy for the position of loading pads (5.4) shall be5 mm.

34、load the unit until this tendency stops. If the unit tends to slide during the tests 6.5 to 6.12 and 6.14 the unit shall be restrained by stops (5.3). 4.6 Loading During all tests all components intended for storage purposes shall be uniformly loaded according to Table 1, except where otherwise spec
35、ified. 5 Test apparatus 5.1 Floor surface, a rigid, horizontal and flat surface. 5.2 Wall surface, a rigid, vertical and flat surface. 5.3 Stops Devices to prevent the unit from sliding but not tilting not higher than 12 mm except in cases where the design of the unit necessitates the use of higher
36、stops, in which case the lowest that will prevent the item from sliding shall be used. 5.4 Loading pad A rigid cylindrical object, 100 mm in diameter (or 50 mm to be used in limited space), having a flat face with 12 mm radius on the edge. 5.5 Apparatus for slam open of drawers An example for a suit
37、able apparatus as well as calibration instructions are shown in annex A. 5.6 Dead loads Masses which do not reinforce the structure or redistribute the stresses. If bags with lead shots, etc. are used, the bags shall be divided into small compartments to prevent the contents from moving during the t
38、est. 5.7 Glass marbles The marbles shall be between 10 mm and 15 mm in diameter. The marbles shall be used during the test described in 6.15. They shall be in a flexible bag large enough to allow them to move during the test. 5.8 Impact plate A 1,7 kg impact plate, with a steel plate of 200 mm 3 109
39、 mm 3 10 mm faced with a 3 mm thick layer of rubber with a hardness of (8510) IRHD according to ISO 48. 6 Safety requirements and test methods 6.1 Principles of safety requirements The following safety requirements are based upon the knowledge that domestic storage furniture and its components are l
40、ikely to cause serious injury only when they are heavy and fall through a significant distance. Therefore, with the exception of stability of free standing units (6.14), the test methods specified are only applicable to units and components whose centre of gravity is: at or above 900 mm from the flo
41、or and whose total mass (according to 6.3) equals or exceeds 10 kg; or at or above 350 mm and whose total mass (according to 6.3) equals or exceeds 35 kg. The requirements and test methods for stability (6.14) apply only to storage units where the multiplication of the height of the centre of gravit
42、y (6.2) and the total mass (6.3) exceeds 60 Nm. 6.2 Determination of the centre of gravity The centre of gravity of a component or unit shall be taken as the geometric centre of the usable volume of drawers and unit and as the geometric centre of doors, flaps and shelves. The height of the centre of
43、 gravity above the floor shall be measured for cupboards or their components when installed according to the manufacturers instructions. Adjustable feet shall be set at their middle position. Height adjustable components of cupboards shall be placed in their highest position. All wall or top-mounted
44、 units or components there of are considered to have their centre of gravity more than 900 mm above the floor, unless specific restrictions are specified by the manufacturer. 6.3 Determination of total mass The total mass shall be the mass of the component or unit plus the mass supported by it. Unle
45、ss conspicuously and durably marked by the manufacturer with a maximum allowable contents load, the mass of the contents shall be determined according to Table 1, which specifies load per unit area for shelves and the load per unit volume for drawers and baskets. The volume of baskets shall be taken
46、 as the volume contained below its top edge. The volume of drawers shall be taken as the area of the drawer bottom multiplied by the clear height. The clear height is the distance between the top of the drawer bottom and the lower edge of the drawer front of the drawer above, or the structure of the
47、 unit.
