EN 71-1, Safety of toys - Part 1: Mechanical and physical properties. EN 71-2, Safety of toys - Part 2: Flammability. EN 71-3, Safety of toys - Part 3: Migration of certain elements. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 carer’s attachment system fastenings, straps and/or belts which are fitted to the framed carrier for the purpose of securing the article to the carer’s torso 3.2 child restraint system assembly of fastening straps and/or a belt that is fitted to the framed carrier in order to restrain the child within the carrier 3.3 freestanding carriers carrier designed with a system that allows it to stand unsupported prior to the child being placed in the carrier 4 General requirements and conditioning 4.1 Multi – purpose products If a carrier has other functions not covered in this standard, reference should be made to the relevant standard e.g. child wheeled conveyance (see EN 1888). 4.2 Order of tests Unless specified the order of testing shall be carried out in the order of the clause numbers of this document. Additional samples may be used when doing the following tests: 5.1 Chemical properties 5.2 Flammability of textiles



EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 6 6.6 Accessibility of fillings 4.3 Tolerances Unless otherwise stated the following tolerances shall apply for testing and test equipment. All forces shall have an accuracy of ± 5 %. All masses shall have an accuracy of ± 1 %. All dimensions shall have an accuracy of ± 1 mm. All time measurements shall have an accuracy of ± 1 s. All angles shall have an accuracy of ± 1°. 5 Materials 5.1 Chemical properties The migration of synthetic or natural elements: coating of paint, varnish, lacquer, printing ink, polymer and similar coatings, the other materials whether mass coloured or not shall comply with the following amounts. Antimony :
60 mg/kg Arsenic
:
25 mg/kg Barium
: 1 000 mg/kg Cadmium :
75 mg/kg Chromium :
60 mg/kg Lead
:
90 mg/kg Mercury :
60 mg/kg Selenium :
500 mg/kg These limits shall be checked according to the test prescribed in EN 71-3. Where a surface coated with a multi-layer of paint or similar coating, the sample shall not include the substrate. 5.2 Flammability of textiles, coated textiles, supports and plastic coverings The rate of the spread of flame shall not exceed 30 mm/s when tested in accordance with EN 71-2. 5.3 Conditioning Any parts which are intended to be removed from the structure, shall be washed/dried or cleaned twice according to the manufacturer’s instructions.



EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 7 5.4 Shrinkage After testing in accordance with 5.3 any resulting shrinkage shall not prevent the covering from being refitted to the structure, without damaging the seams of the fabric and shall not impair the performance and use of the article. 5.5 Monofilament threads Monofilament threads shall not be used. 6 Construction 6.1 Gaps and openings There shall be no open-ended tubes, projections, holes or loose washers, speed fixings, nuts or crevices in which the child’s finger or flesh could become trapped. When the carrier is assembled for use in any configuration, there shall be no gaps and openings greater than 5 mm and less than 12 mm, unless the depth of penetration is less than 10 mm. Buckles, fastenings and sliders are excluded from this requirement. 6.2 Edges In order to avoid lacerations or abrasions, the surfaces shall be smooth and free from splinters and burrs. Edges or components with a thickness greater than 4 mm and an internal angle of less than 120° shall have a 2 mm radius or be chamfered as given in the examples in Figure 1a) b) and c). Edges or components with a thickness less than 4 mm shall be rounded, folded, rolled or spiralled (as given in the example in Figure 1d); or have a protective covering as given in the example in Figure 1e). The minimum radii do not apply to small components such as hinges, brackets and catches but these shall be free of burrs and sharp edges and points. Any protective covering applied in order to meet the above specifications shall comply with the requirements for protective components specified in EN 71–1.

Figure 1 — Examples for minimum radii of edges and corners 6.3 Small parts 6.3.1 Requirements Any components not intended to be detachable, which become detached when tested in accordance with 6.3.2.2 and 6.3.2.3 shall not, fit wholly within the small parts cylinder specified in EN 71-1. Any component intended to be removable without the use of a tool shall not fit wholly within the small parts cylinder as specified in EN 71-1. 6.3.2 Test method 6.3.2.1 Apparatus Means of applying forces up to at least 90 N with an accuracy of ± 2 N, e.g. a spring balance or a dead weight arrangement. Feeler gauge with thickness of (0,4 ± 0,02) mm, with the end to be inserted having a radius of approximately 3 mm.



EN 13209-1:2004 (E) 9 6.3.2.2 Tension test Establish if the component to be tested is grippable by inserting the feeler gauge between the component and the underlying layer or body of the item at an angle between 0° and 10° from the surface using a force of (1
