Mechanical vibration - Laboratory method for evaluating vehicle seat vibration - Part 1: Basic requirements - Amendment 2 (ISO 10326-1:1992/DAM 2:2010)

This part of ISO 10326 specifies basic requirements for laboratory testing of vibration transmission through a vehicle seat to the occupant. These methods for measurement and analysis will make it possible to compare test results from different laboratories.  It specifies the test method, the instrumentation requirements, the measuring assessment method and the way to report the test result.  This part of ISO 10326 applies to specific laboratory seat tests which evaluate vibration transmission to the occupants of any type of seat used in vehicles and mobile off-road machinery.  Application standards for specific vehicles should refer to this part of ISO 10326 when defining the test input vibration that is typical for the vibration characteristics of the type or class of vehicle or machinery in which the seat is to be fitted.

Ta del standarda ISO 10326 določa osnovne zahteve za laboratorijsko preskušanje prenosa vibracij prek sedeža vozila na uporabnika. Te metode za merjenje in analizo bodo omogočile primerjavo rezultatov preskusov iz različnih laboratorijev.  Standard določa preskusno metodo, merilne zahteve, metodo za ovrednotenje merjenja in način za sporočanje rezultata preskusa.  Ta del standarda ISO 10326 se uporablja za posebne laboratorijske preskuse sedežev za vrednotenje prenosa vibracij na uporabnika katere koli vrste sedeža, ki se uporablja v vozilih in mobilnih terenskih strojih.  Standardi uporabe za posebna vozila naj bi se sklicevali na ta del standarda ISO 10326 pri določanju preskusne vhodne vibracije, ki je običajna za vibracijske značilnosti vrste ali razreda vozila oziroma stroja, v katerega se bo namestil sedež.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 2 to ISO 10326-1:1992 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
Technical Committee CEN/TC 231, Mechanical vibration and shock, in collaboration with Technical
Committee ISO/TC 108, Mechanical vibration, shock and condition monitoring, Subcommittee SC 4, Human

Add the following information at the end of the parts list:
The following part is planned:

Page iii, Introduction
Add the following paragraph:
The seat constitutes the last stage of suspension before the driver. To be efficient at attenuating the
vibration, the suspension seat should be chosen according to the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle.
Any performance criteria provided should be set in accordance with what is attainable using best design
practice. Such criteria do not necessarily ensure the complete protection of the operator against risks
associated with exposure to vibration and shock which are generally believed to be risk of spinal injury.

Add the following reference:
ISO 13090-1, Mechanical vibration and shock — Guidance on safety aspects of tests and experiments

Replace the first paragraph with the following:
The guidance on safety requirements with regard to tests in which people are exposed to mechanical
vibration and repeated shock as given in ISO 13090-1 shall be followed.

Differences in the setting of ride height when testing suspended seats can have significant effects on test
results. Therefore the test standard should include guidance on how the height should be adjusted, such

by the test person weight, including where the height adjustment is integrated into the suspension
travel, testing shall be performed in the lowest position that provides the full working suspension
stroke as specified by the seat manufacturer;
 with seats where the suspension stroke available is unaffected by the adjustment of the seat height
or by test person weight, testing shall be performed with the seat adjusted to the centre of stroke.
Determination of the ride position requires location of the upper and the lower ends of travel for the
suspension, as follows.
a) For suspensions with manual weight adjustment, the following procedure is recommended.
The upper end of travel should be determined with no load on the seat, and with the suspension
weight adjustment set approximately to suit the heavy test person (e.g. 100 kg).
The lower end of travel, including compression of the lower bump stop, should be determined with a
load of 1 500 N, and with the suspension weight adjustment set approximately to suit the light test
person (e.g. 55 kg).
