Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für aufblasbare Spiel- und Freizeitgeräte zur Verwendung auf dem Wasser, aufblasbares Spielzeug für den privaten Gebrauch, Tragluftbauten, aufblasbare Geräte, welche ausschließlich zum Schutz und zur Rettung eingesetzt werden oder andere Arten von aufblasbarem Spielzeug, bei dem die Hauptbetätigung nicht das horizontale Anlaufen gegen ein befestigtes Bungee-Elastikseil ist.
Équipements de jeu gonflables - Partie 4 : Exigences de sécurité supplémentaires pour les équipements de course à l’élastique
Le présent document spécifie des exigences de sécurité supplémentaires pour les équipements de course à l’élastique (ou « bungee run », en anglais) et il convient qu’il soit lu conjointement avec la partie 1 (voir l’Annexe A).
Le présent document s’applique aux équipements de jeu gonflables destinés à être utilisés par des personnes mesurant au moins 1 200 mm et pesant au maximum 120 kg.
Le présent document spécifie des exigences de sécurité relatives à un jeu gonflable dont la principale activité consiste à tirer horizontalement sur une corde élastique sécurisée. Il présente des mesures permettant de faire face aux risques et également de réduire au minimum le nombre d’accidents d’utilisateurs, à l’intention des personnes impliquées dans la conception, la fabrication et la fourniture de jeux gonflables.
Il spécifie les informations à fournir avec l’équipement. Ces exigences ont été établies en tenant compte du facteur de risque basé sur les données disponibles.
Le présent document spécifie les exigences permettant de protéger les utilisateurs contre les risques qu’ils peuvent ne pas être en capacité de prévoir lors de l’utilisation normale de l’équipement ou d’une manière qu’il est possible d’anticiper raisonnablement.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux équipements ludiques de loisirs gonflables flottants, aux jouets gonflables domestiques, aux constructions pneumatiques, aux structures gonflables utilisées uniquement pour la protection, aux équipements gonflables utilisés pour le sauvetage, ni à d’autres types de jouets gonflables dont l’activité première n’est pas de tirer horizontalement sur une corde élastique sécurisée.
Afin de ne pas limiter l’application du présent document aux éléments d’équipements actuellement utilisés et de laisser toute liberté de conception pour la fabrication de nouveaux équipements, seules sont définies les formes fondamentales d’équipement et de mouvement définis à l’Article 3.

prEN 14960-4:2022 (E)
Introduction
Play is a means by which people discover and understand the world in which they live and is an essential
element in a person’s physical and mental growth.
It is important for a person’s rounded development that, through play, they arrive at an understanding of
danger, which provides a basis for assessing safety in a variety of situations. The balance between
challenge and safety is an important consideration.
The inflatable game referred to in this document can provide different levels of challenge and excitement.
This document aims to minimize the level of risk and the possibility of serious injury while allowing
people to enjoy themselves when using inflatable equipment.
It is not the purpose of the requirements of this document to affect a person’s need to play nor to lessen
the contribution that inflatable play equipment makes either to the person’s development or meaningful
play from an educational point of view.
Where inflatable play equipment is combined with other items of play equipment, the relevant standards
for the other items of equipment should also be applied.
prEN 14960-4:2022 (E)
1 Scope

game.
It specifies information to be supplied with the equipment. The requirements have been laid down
bearing in mind the risk factor based on available data.
This document specifies the requirements that will protect the user from hazards that they might be
unable to foresee when using the equipment as intended, or in a manner that can be reasonably
anticipated.
This document is not applicable to inflatable water- borne play and leisure equipment, domestic
inflatable toys, air-supported buildings, inflatables used solely for protection, inflatables used for rescue,
or other types of inflatable toys where the primary activity is not pulling horizontally against a secured
bungee shock cord.
In order not to confine the application of this document to those items of equipment currently in use and
to allow freedom of design for the manufacture of new equipment, only the fundamental forms of
equipment and motion are defined in Clause 3.
