Earth-moving machinery - Laboratory evaluation of operator seat vibration

1.1 This document specifies, in accordance with ISO 10326‑1:2016, a laboratory method for measuring and evaluating the effectiveness of the seat suspension in reducing the vertical whole-body vibration transmitted to the operator of earth-moving machines at frequencies between 1 Hz and 20 Hz. It also specifies acceptance criteria for application to seats on different machines. 1.2 This document is applicable to operator seats used on earth-moving machines as defined in ISO 6165. 1.3 This document defines the input spectral classes required for the following earth-moving machines. Each class defines a group of machines having similar vibration characteristics: — rigid-frame dumpers >4 500 kg operating mass; — articulated-frame dumpers; — scrapers without axle or frame suspension[1]; — wheeled loaders >4 500 kg operating mass; — graders; — wheeled dozers; — soil compactors; — backhoe loaders; — crawler dumpers; — crawler loaders; — crawler-dozers ≤50 000 kg operating mass[2]; — compact dumpers ≤4 500 kg operating mass; — wheeled compact loaders ≤4 500 kg operating mass; — skid-steer loaders, wheeled ≤4 500 kg and tracked ≤6 000 kg operating mass. 1.4 The following machines impart sufficiently low vertical vibration inputs at frequencies between 1 Hz and 20 Hz to the seat during operation that these seats do not require suspension for the attenuation of transmitted vibration: — excavators, including walking excavators and cable excavators[3]; — trenchers; — landfill compactors; — non-vibratory rollers, except soil compactors; — vibratory rollers, except soil compactors; — pipelayers; — horizontal directional drills (HDD). 1.5 The tests and criteria defined in this document are intended for operator seats used in earth-moving machines of conventional design. NOTE Other tests can be appropriate for machines with design features that result in significantly different vibration characteristics. 1.6 Vibration which reaches the operator other than through the seat, for example that sensed by the operator's feet on the platform or control pedals or by the operator´s hands on the steering-wheel, is not covered. [1] For scrapers with suspension, either a seat with no suspension can be used, or one having a suspension with high damping. [2] For crawler dozers greater than 50 000 kg, the seat performance requirements are suitably provided by a cushion type seat. [3] For excavators, the predominant vibration is generally in the fore and aft (X) axis.

Earth-moving machinery - Laboratory evaluation of operator seat vibration

1.1 This document specifies, in accordance with ISO 10326‑1:2016, a laboratory method for measuring and evaluating the effectiveness of the seat suspension in reducing the vertical whole-body vibration transmitted to the operator of earth-moving machines at frequencies between 1 Hz and 20 Hz. It also specifies acceptance criteria for application to seats on different machines.

1.2 This document is applicable to operator seats used on earth-moving machines as defined in ISO 6165.

1.3 This document defines the input spectral classes required for the following earth-moving machines. Each class defines a group of machines having similar vibration characteristics:

— rigid-frame dumpers >4 500 kg operating mass;

— articulated-frame dumpers;

— scrapers without axle or frame suspension[1];

— wheeled loaders >4 500 kg operating mass;

— graders;

— wheeled dozers;

— soil compactors;

— backhoe loaders;

— crawler dumpers;

— crawler loaders;

— crawler-dozers ≤50 000 kg operating mass[2];

— compact dumpers ≤4 500 kg operating mass;

— wheeled compact loaders ≤4 500 kg operating mass;

— skid-steer loaders, wheeled ≤4 500 kg and tracked ≤6 000 kg operating mass.

1.4 The following machines impart sufficiently low vertical vibration inputs at frequencies between 1 Hz and 20 Hz to the seat during operation that these seats do not require suspension for the attenuation of transmitted vibration:

— excavators, including walking excavators and cable excavators[3];

— trenchers;

— landfill compactors;

— non-vibratory rollers, except soil compactors;

— vibratory rollers, except soil compactors;

— pipelayers;

— horizontal directional drills (HDD).

1.5 The tests and criteria defined in this document are intended for operator seats used in earth-moving machines of conventional design.

NOTE Other tests can be appropriate for machines with design features that result in significantly different vibration characteristics.

1.6 Vibration which reaches the operator other than through the seat, for example that sensed by the operator's feet on the platform or control pedals or by the operator´s hands on the steering-wheel, is not covered.

[1] For scrapers with suspension, either a seat with no suspension can be used, or one having a suspension with high damping.

[2] For crawler dozers greater than 50 000 kg, the seat performance requirements are suitably provided by a cushion type seat.

[3] For excavators, the predominant vibration is generally in the fore and aft (X) axis.

Earth-moving machinery - Laboratory evaluation of operator seat vibration

<p> La présente Norme internationale spécifie, conformément à l'ISO 10326-1, une méthode en laboratoire de mesurage et d'évaluation de l'efficacité du siège à réduire les vibrations verticales transmises au corps entier de l'opérateur des engins de terrassement, à des fréquences comprises entre 1 Hz et 20 Hz. Elle spécifie également les critères d'acceptation pour l'application à des sièges sur différentes machines. La présente Norme internationale s'applique aux sièges d'opérateur utilisés sur des engins de terrassement tels qu'ils sont définis dans l'ISO 6165. La présente Norme internationale définit les classes de spectres d'excitation pour les engins de terrassement suivants. Chaque classe définit un groupe de machines ayant des caractéristiques vibratoires similaires: - Tombereaux à châssis rigide avec une masse en service &gt; 4500 kg - Tombereaux à châssis articulé - Décapeuses sans essieux ou à châssis suspendu - Chargeuses sur roues avec une masse en service &gt; 4500 kg - Niveleuses - Bouteurs à pneus - Compacteurs de sols (de type à roues) - Chargeuses-pelleteuses - Chargeuses à chenilles - Bouteurs à chenilles avec une masse en service &lt; 50 000 kg - Motobasculeurs avec une masse en service &lt; 4 500 kg - Chargeuses compactes avec une masse en service &lt; 4500 kg - Chargeuses articulées avec une masse en service &lt; 4500 kg Les machines suivantes transmettent au siège des vibrations verticales de fréquences suffisamment basses, comprises entre 1 Hz et 20 Hz, pendant le fonctionnement, pour que ces sièges n'aient pas besoin d'une suspension pour atténuer ces vibrations: - pelles, y compris les pelles articulées et les pelles à câbles - trancheuses - compacteurs de remblai - rouleaux statiques - concasseurs - tracteurs poseurs de canalisations - finisseurs - rouleaux vibrants Les essais et critères définis dans la présente Norme internationale sont destinés aux sièges d'opérateur utilisés dans les engins de terrassement de conception classique. </p>

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
