NACIONALNI UVOD
Standard SIST EN 1273:2021+A1 ((sl)en), Izdelki za otroke – Hojce – Varnostne zahteve in preskusne
metode (vključno z dopolnilom A1), 2024, ima status slovenskega standarda in je po metodi ponatisa
izvirnika z nacionalnim dodatkom privzet evropski standard EN 1273:2020+A1 (en), Child care articles

Ta slovenski standard nadomešča SIST EN 1273:2021.
NACIONALNI PREDGOVOR
Evropski standard EN 1273:2020+A1:2023 je pripravil tehnični odbor Evropskega komiteja za
standardizacijo CEN/TC 252 "Izdelki za otroke", katerega sekretariat vodi AFNOR.
Ta dokument je bil pripravljen na podlagi mandata M/264, ki sta ga Evropska komisija in Evropsko
združenje za prosto trgovino dodelila CEN.

Odločitev za izdajo tega standarda je 9. maja 2024 sprejel tehnični odbor SIST/TC OTR Izdelki za
otroke.

Introduction
The purpose of this document is to reduce the risk of accidents.
It is stressed that this document cannot eliminate all possible risks to children using such a product and
that carer control is of paramount importance. Accidents are mainly due to carer(s) not anticipating the
extra reach and speed that children can achieve in the baby walking frame.
It is essential that all warnings and instructions specified in this standard are clearly given by the
manufacturer, to ensure that the baby walking frame can be used safely and correctly.
1 Scope
This document specifies safety requirements and test methods for baby walking frames into which a child
is placed, and intended to be used from when the child is able to sit up by itself until the child is able to
walk by itself.
This document does not apply to baby walking frames for therapeutic and curative purposes and to those
baby walking frames relying on inflatable parts to support the child.
Toys (e.g. ride on toys, push-along toys, usually intended for children able to walk unaided) are not
covered by this document.
If a baby walking frame has several functions or can be converted into another function, the relevant
European standards apply to it.

5 General requirements and test conditions
5.1 Product conditioning
Before testing, any fabrics used shall be cleaned or washed and dried twice in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
5.2 Test conditions
The tests shall be carried out in ambient conditions of (20 ± 5) °C.
The tests are designed to be applied to baby walking frames that are fully assembled and ready for use in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If the baby walking frame can be assembled or adjusted
in different ways in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, the most onerous combinations
shall be used for each test, unless otherwise specified in the test method.
5.3 Application of forces
The forces in the static load tests shall be applied sufficiently slowly to ensure that negligible dynamic
effect is applied.
5.4 Tolerances
Unless otherwise stated, the accuracy of the test equipment shall be:
— Forces: ± 5 % of the nominal force;
— Masses: ± 0,5 % of the nominal mass;
— Dimensions: ± 0,5 mm of the nominal dimension;
— Angles: ± 0,5° of the nominal angle;
— Duration: ± 1 s of the nominal duration.
The tests are described in terms of the application of forces. Masses can however be used. The
relationship 10 N = 1 kg may be used for this purpose.
Unless otherwise specified, the test forces may be applied by any suitable device which does not adversely
affect the results.
5.5 Order of tests
Unless otherwise stated in the test methods, the tests shall be carried out on the same baby walking frame
in the order listed in this standard.
6 Chemical hazards (see A.2)
6.1 General
If testing is required, a separate unconditioned sample shall be used for the tests in Clause 6.
6.2 Migration of certain elements (see A.2)
The migration of elements from materials on exterior surfaces shall not exceed the limits listed in Table 1.

When testing is performed, the method described in !EN 71-3:2019+A1:2021" shall be used.
Components under the base (e.g. castors or wheels, braking pads, …) are excluded from these
requirements.
6.3 Formaldehyde (see A.2)
Accessible textile components shall not contain free and hydrolysed formaldehyde in excess of 30 mg/kg.
When testing is performed, the method described in !EN ISO 14184-1:2011" shall be used.
Resin-bonded wood components shall not release formaldehyde in excess of 0,124 mg/m (class E1
according to !EN 622-1:2003").
When testing is performed, the method described in !EN 717-1:2004" shall be used.
6.4 Colourants (see A.2)
When tested in accordance with EN 71-10:2005, Annex A, if the colour fastness to sweat of accessible
textile components is lower than 3-4 on the grey scale as defined in !EN ISO 105-A03:2019", the part
shall be tested for colourants with the methods described in !EN 71-10:2005" and
!EN 71-11:2005" and the limits in Table 2 shall be fulfilled.

6.5 Aniline (see A.2)
Aniline shall not exceed the limit of 30 mg/kg after reductive cleavage from accessible textile
components.
When testing is performed the method of !EN ISO 14362-1:2017", adapted as appropriate to
measure aniline, shall be used.
7 Thermal hazards (see A.3)
7.1 Requirement
When tested in accordance with 7.2, there shall be no surface flash and the rate of spread of flame on
textile materials shall not exceed 50 mm/s.
These tests can be performed on a separate sample, conditioned according to 5.1, or at the end of the test
sequence.
NOTE Refer to Annex D for A-deviations on flammability requirements.
7.2 Test method
To verify the surface flash effect apply the test flame defined in !EN 71-2:2020", 5.5 for (3 ± 0,5) s to
the baby walking frame in different places likely to cause surface flash.
To verify rate of spread of flame apply the test flame defined in !EN 71-2:2020", 5.4.
8 Mechanical hazards (see A.4)
8.1 Entrapment hazards (see A.4.1)
8.1.1 Requirements
When tested in accordance with 8.1.2, there shall be no completely bounded openings between 7 mm and
12 mm unless the depth is less than 10 mm or unless the shape assessment probe (see 4.4.2) enters when
tested in accordance with 8.1.2.
When tested in accordance with 8.1.2, there shall be no openings in mesh that allow the test probe for
mesh (see 4.4.1) to penetrate to the 7 mm diameter section.
The test shall be carried out with the product in any intended position of use.
This requirement does not apply to the castors, wheels, the whole base of the baby walking frame, and to
any other part of the underside of the tray more than 100 mm from the vertical projection of the outer
edge (see Figure 12).

8.1.2 Test methods
Check whether the 7 mm probe (see 4.4.1), with an applied force of up to 30 N, enters 10 mm or more
into any accessible completely bounded opening in any possible orientation.
If the 7 mm probe enters 10 mm or more, then the 12 mm probe (see 4.4.1) shall also enter 10 mm or
more with an applied force of up to 5 N.
If the 7 mm probe enters with an applied force of up to 30 N but the 12 mm probe does not enter 10 mm
or more with an applied force of up to 5 N, check whether the 12 mm shape assessment probe (see 4.4.2)
enters 10 mm or more with an applied force of up to 5 N.
Check whether the test probe for mesh (see 4.4.1), with an applied force of up to 30 N, penetrates
accessible openings in mesh up to the 7 mm diameter section.
8.2 Hazards due to moving parts (see A.4.2)
8.2.1 General
Shear and compression points which are created only when setting up or folding are acceptable as the
carer can be assumed to be in control of these actions.
The castors, wheels, whole base of the baby walkin
