Child care articles - Baby walking frames - Safety requirements and test methods

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.

Artikel für Säuglinge und Kleinkinder - Kinderlaufhilfen - Sicherheitstechnische Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren

Dieses Dokument legt die sicherheitstechnischen Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für Kinderlaufhilfen fest, die von einem Alter an verwendbar sind, in dem das Kind schon selbstständig sitzen kann, bis zu dem Alter, in dem es selbstständig laufen kann.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Kinderlaufhilfen zu therapeutischen Zwecken und Heilbehandlungen und für Kinderlaufhilfen, bei denen das Kind von aufblasbaren Teilen gestützt wird.
Spielzeuge (z. B. Aufsitzspielzeuge oder Rutschspielzeuge, die gewöhnlich für Kinder zum Laufen ohne Unterstützung vorgesehen sind) werden in diesem Dokument nicht behandelt.
Wenn eine Kinderlaufhilfe mehrere Funktionen hat oder zu einer anderen Funktion umgebaut werden kann, gelten dafür die zutreffenden Europäischen Normen.

Articles de puériculture - Trotteurs - Exigences de sécurité et méthodes d'essai

Le présent document spécifie les exigences de sécurité et les méthodes d’essai applicables aux trotteurs dans lesquels un enfant est installé, qui sont destinés à être utilisés à partir du moment où l’enfant est capable de se tenir assis tout seul jusqu’au moment où il sait marcher.
Le présent document ne s’applique ni aux trotteurs à fonction thérapeutique et curative, ni à ceux dans lesquels l’enfant est soutenu par des parties gonflables.
Les jouets (par exemple les jouets à enfourcher et les jouets à pousser, habituellement destinés aux enfants en mesure de marcher tout seuls) ne sont pas couverts par le présent document.
Si un trotteur offre plusieurs fonctions ou peut être converti en une autre fonction, les Normes européennes pertinentes s’appliquent.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1273:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 252 “Child care
articles”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1273:2005.
In comparison with the previous edition EN 1273:2005, the following major technical modifications have
been made:
— general redraft in hazard based format;
— addition of new chemical requirements based on CEN/TR 13387-2;
— general update of some mechanical requirements and test methods to the state of the art of
CEN/TR 13387-3;
— improvement of the requirements and test methods for static and dynamic strength;
— modification of the test method for prevention of falls down stairs to improve reproducibility of
results;
— update of product information section and addition of a new symbol from CEN/TR 13387-5.

Introduction
The purpose of this European Standard is to reduce the risk of accidents.
It is stressed that this European Standard 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.
