(E) 5 1 Scope This part of EN 716 specifies test methods for assessing the safety of children's cots and folding cots for domestic use. It applies to children’s cots and folding cots with an internal length greater than 900 mm but not more than 1 400 mm. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 2439:2000, Flexible cellular polymeric materials - Determination of hardness (indentation technique) (ISO 2439:1997, including Technical Corrigendum 1:1998) ISO 7619-2, Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic — Determination of indentation hardness — Part 2: IRHD pocket meter method 3 General test conditions 3.1 Preliminary preparation The tests are designed to be applied to a cot that is fully assembled and ready for use. The test unit shall be stored in indoor ambient conditions for at least one week immediately prior to testing. Any deviation from this procedure shall be stated in the test report. Before testing, any fabrics intended to be removable shall be cleaned or washed twice in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. If no instructions are supplied, the manner of washing/cleaning shall be stated in the test report. The tests shall be carried out under indoor ambient conditions, but if during a test the atmospheric temperature is outside the range 15 °C to 25 °C, the maximum and/or minimum temperature shall be recorded in the test report. The cot shall be tested as delivered. If the cot is a knock down type, it shall be assembled according to the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the cot. If the cot can be assembled, combined or adjusted in different ways, the most adverse combination shall be used for each test. Knock-down fittings shall be tightened before testing. Further re-tightening shall not take place unless this is specifically required by the manufacturer. In the case of designs not catered for in the test procedures, the tests shall be carried out as far as possible as described, and a list made of the deviations from the test procedures. 3.2 Test equipment Unless otherwise specified, the tests may be applied by any suitable device because results are dependent only upon correctly applied forces and loads and not upon the apparatus. SIST EN 716-2:2008+A1:2013
3.3 Application of forces The forces in the static load tests shall be applied sufficiently slowly enough to ensure that negligible dynamic force is applied. The forces in durability tests shall be applied at a rate to ensure that excessive heating does not occur. 3.4 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated, the following tolerances apply: Forces:
±
5 % of the nominal force; Masses:
±
0,5 % of the nominal mass; Dimensions: ±
1,0 mm of the nominal dimension; Angles:
±
2° of the nominal angle; Positioning of loading pads: ± 5 mm; Duration of forces: ( 2 ± 1) s for durability tests
(10 ± 2) s for static load tests, including tension, torque and bite tests. The tests are described in terms of the application of forces. Masses can, however, be used. The relationship 10 N = 1 kg shall be used for this purpose.
3.5 Test sequence The tests shall be carried out in the order laid down in this standard and on the same cot. 3.6 Prevention of movement during test If the cot tends to slide or roll during the tests specified in clause 5, it shall be restrained by stops (4.6).
4 Test apparatus 4.1 Measuring probes Probes made of plastics or other hard, smooth material mounted on a force-measuring device.
There shall be one probe with a diameter of 7 mm (-0,1/+0 mm), see Figure 1a. There shall be five probes with an angle of 30° ±
0,5° with diameters of 25 mm (0/+0,1 mm), 45 mm (0/+0,1 mm), 60 mm (0/+0,1 mm), 65 mm (0/+0,1 mm) and 85 mm (0/+0,1 mm) with conical ends, see Figure 1b. SIST EN 716-2:2008+A1:2013

An apparatus (Figure 8), consisting of two sets of teeth (Figure 7), made from H13 high chrome tool steel or equivalent and hardened to 45 Rockwell C to 50 Rockwell C. There shall be two teeth at the top and two at the bottom of the bite tester, positioned so that the vertical centre line of one pair of teeth is (1 ± 0,1) mm in front of the centre line of the other set of teeth. In the fully closed position the teeth shall overlap each other by (1 ± 0,1) mm. The outer most corners of the teeth shall have a radius of (0,3 ± 0,1) mm. The teeth shall be mounted so as to pivot about a point (50 ± 1) mm from the rear most pair of teeth and positioned so that when closed the centre lines of the two pairs of teeth are parallel to each other. The bite tester shall be equipped with a stop to prevent the distance between the teeth from exceeding (28 ± 1) mm when fully opened. The closing force of the teeth shall be set at (50 ± 5) N. The bite tester shall be provided with a guide to prevent items entering further into the fully opened jaws by more than (17 ± 1) mm. The bite tester shall be equipped with a means whereby a force of (50 ± 5) N may be applied along its centre line in a direction tending to pull the teeth off the sample. SIST EN 716-2:2008+A1:2013
