Furniture - Links for linked seating - Strength and safety requirements and test methods
Furniture - Links for linked seating - Strength and safety requirements and test methods
This European Standard specifies strength requirements and test methods for the links used for non-domestic seating, which can be linked together in a row.
This European Standard does not specify strength or durability requirements for individual chairs as these are contained within EN 15373.
Assessment of ageing and degradation is not included.
Tests carried out according to this European Standard are intended to demonstrate the ability of the links to function correctly in their intended environment. It should be understood that fulfilling the requirements does not ensure that the links will operate as expected in circumstances or emergencies that cannot be foreseen.
Möbel - Verbindungselemente für Reihenbestuhlung für den Nicht-Wohnbereich - Festigkeitsanforderungen und Prüfverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an die Festigkeit und Sicherheit sowie Prüfverfahren für Verbinder von zu Reihen zusammengestellten Sitzmöbeln fest sowie ausschließlich für die Verbindungselemente die Anforderungen an die Dauerhaltbarkeit und Sicherheit und die Auswirkungen, die sich daraus auf die Konstruktion ergeben können.
Die vorliegende Norm legt keine Anforderungen fest für die Sicherheit oder Dauerhaltbarkeit der einzelnen Stühle, da die Reihenbestuhlung sich nicht von anderen, für den öffentlichen Gebrauch vorgesehenen Sitzmöbeln unterscheidet.
Eine Bewertung der Alterung und Verwitterung ist nicht enthalten.
Durch die nach der vorliegenden Europäischen Norm durchgeführten Prüfungen soll der Nachweis erbracht werden, dass die Verbindungselemente in ihrer vorgesehenen Umgebung einwandfrei ihre Funktion erfüllen. Es sollte beachtet werden, dass durch die Erfüllung der Anforderungen nicht sichergestellt ist, dass die Verbindungselemente unter nicht vorhersehbaren Umständen oder Ereignissen erwartungsgemäß funktionieren.
Ameublement - Assemblages pour siéges a usage non domestique assemblés en une rangée - Exigences de résistance et méthodes d'essai
La présente Norme européenne fixe les exigences de résistance ainsi que les méthodes d’essai pour les assemblages de sieges a usage non domestique pouvant etre assemblés en une rangée.
La présente norme ne spécifie pas d’exigences de résistance ou de durabilité pour les sieges eux-memes car ces aspects sont traités dans l’EN 15373.
L’influence du vieillissement et les dégradations ne sont pas prises en compte.
Les essais effectués conformément a la présente Norme européenne ont pour but d’évaluer le bon fonctionnement des assemblages en condition normale. Il est entendu que la conformité aux exigences ne saurait assurer que les assemblages fonctionneront comme prévu dans des circonstances ou cas de panique imprévisibles.

This European Standard does not specify strength or durability requirements for individual chairs as these are contained within EN 15373. Assessment of ageing and degradation is not included. Tests carried out according to this European Standard are intended to demonstrate the ability of the links to function correctly in their intended environment. It should be understood that fulfilling the requirements does not ensure that the links will operate as expected in circumstances or emergencies that cannot be foreseen. 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. Not applicable 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 linked seating single chairs fitted with means whereby they can be linked together in a row or separated and used singly or stored. NOTE Seating mounted on beams or fixed to the floor or wall of a building is not linked seating 3.2 positive links links which remain linked if the chairs are overturned or lifted up 3.3 gravity links links which link each chair to the previous one when the chair is put down. This type of link will disengage when the chair is lifted up 3.4 structure load bearing parts of furniture including the frame, seat, back, arm supports and suspension 3.5 static test test consisting of heavy loads being applied a few times to ensure that the furniture has sufficient strength to perform its function under the highest levels of loading that might reasonably be expected to occur 3.6 impact test test to assess the strength of the article under the rapid rates of loading that occasionally occur
EN 14703:2007 (E) 5 4 Principle of link performance There are two options for the performance of chair links subjected to heavy loads: a) chairs shall stay linked (7.3.1 option A), or b) chairs shall disengage (7.3.1 option B). 5 General test conditions 5.1 General The tests are designed to be applied to linked seating that is fully assembled and ready for use. The tests consist of the application, to various parts of the item, of loads or forces simulating normal functional use and foreseeable emergency situations. The tests are designed to evaluate properties without regard to materials, design/construction or manufacturing processes. The test results are only valid for the article tested. When the test results are intended to be applied to other similar articles, the test specimen shall be representative of the production model. In the case of designs not catered for in the test procedures, the test shall be carried out as far as possible as described, and deviations from th
