3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
infant bouncer
lounger intended for carrying an infant, in which the infant can be bounced by the elasticity of the support or by other mechanical means (see Figure 1)
Note: There are two types of infant bouncers, one for infants up to when they start to try to sit up, and the other for infants up to when they start to stand up, both including foldable and non-foldable products.
Figure 1 Example diagram of infant bouncer
3.2
infant rocker
lounger intended for carrying an infant to rock him/her (see Figure 2)
Note: There are two types of infant rockers, one for infants up to when they start to try to sit up, and the other for infants up to when they start to stand up, both including foldable and non-foldable products. Some infant rockers can be locked to stay still.
Figure 2 Example diagram of infant rocker
3.3
infant swing
device with a fixed frame and a transmission mechanism for reciprocal swinging of an infant in a lying or sitting position (see Figure 3)
Note: Infant swings are intended for use by infants weighing up to 9kg who cannot sit independently.
Figure 3 Example diagram of infant swing
3.4
junction line
position where the backrest intersects the seating surface
Note 1: In case of a non-hammock type seat unit, the seam line between the backrest and the seating surface is the junction line, as shown in Figure 4.
Key:
LL——Junction line;
1——Backrest;
2——Seating surface.
Figure 4 Junction line of non-hammock type seat unit
Note 2: In case of a hammock type seat unit, the theoretical junction line is "LL", as shown in Figure 5. For these products, the junction line will vary when the backrest is adjusted in different positions.
Key:
LL——Junction line;
CL——Vertical projection line of point C on the hammock.
Figure 5 Junction line of hammock type seat unit
3.5
protected volume
range accessible by the arms, hands, legs, etc. of an infant when he/she is placed in the product
Note: See 6.6.1 for the protected volume of infant bouncer/infant rocker and 6.6.2 for that of infant swing.
3.6
restraint system
device that confines an infant in the product
3.7
crotch strap
device designed to be placed between the crotches of an infant to prevent the infant from sliding forward
3.8
carrying handle
part that enables a product (in which an infant is seated) to be carried by hand
3.9
toy bar
bar typically used to hang a toy over an infant and having one or more connection points that can be attached to the product frame at any position
Note: Fixed and rotatable awnings and carrying handles are not considered as toy bars, regardless of whether the product allows for the attachment of toys.
3.10
accessible part
parts in the protected volume of the soothing articles bearing children that can be accessed by any part in front of the shaft shoulder of accessible probe as described in GB 6675.2-2014, 5.7
3.11
stationary activity center
freestanding product designed for use by a child who can sit or stand so that his or her torso is completely encircled by the product, allowing him or her to remain stable while walking, rocking, playing, rotating, bouncing, or performing a combination of the above actions within a limited range of motion
