note! These 7 types of children's room safety accidents are very common
Don't look at the small space of children's rooms, there may be a lot of security risks. Designer Nan Da has compiled the following security problems based on frequent and common child safety issues at home and abroad:
1. Falling: Falling children in children's rooms usually happen in high-bed children's beds such as bunk beds and elevated beds. There are many reasons for falling, such as the height of the guardrail of the bed is less than 30cm, and the pitch of the ladder pedal is greater than 30cm. Lifting chair with pulley, the mattress is too thick, the height of the guardrail is not enough, and so on.
2. Bruise: The door handle of the furniture, the corner of the table, and the edge of the furniture facade are easy to bump into the child. The 2016 Child Injury Prevention Advocacy Report shows that one of the main influencing factors for children aged 3-6 is the sharp edges and corners of furniture such as wardrobes. Most children are injured or scratched by children's furniture.
3. Bruises: Due to the child's climbing instinct, there are many cases of furniture injuries. In 2016-2017, IKEA recalled more than 30 million types of cabinets worldwide due to overturned furniture and even child deaths. This is a typical accident case.
4. Choking: Due to children's curiosity and active nature, children often hide in small spaces while playing, especially in cabinets. There may be suffocation dangers. The wardrobes of regular brand furniture have anti-child suffocation. Stomata.
5. Respiratory injury: TVOC, including formaldehyde, exceeds the standard and can cause respiratory diseases. Solid wood, sheet and MDF without paint protection, easy to breed mold, causing allergic rhinitis and asthma.
6. Vision injury: Insufficient illumination in the reading environment of children's room will make the children who read for a long time produce visual fatigue and induce myopia. According to the Ministry of Industry's healthy reading lighting standards, the illuminance should be no less than 300 LUX, and the standard that can be referenced is calculated according to the lamp power of 9w/m2.
7. Psychological trauma: This is the most easily overlooked injury, but the impact is indeed the most profound. For example, if a child is trapped in a room, it is easy to cause panic. It is important not to lock the child's door.
How to avoid child safety accidents? Look at the national standard
The safety of children's rooms is invincible. How can we avoid these problems? Designer Nan Da suggested: "If you love your child, you should look at the national standards related to children's rooms. The national standard is especially important in terms of safety. You can refer to it when designing a children's room."
For example, many national children's furniture technical standards in the national standard GB 28007--2011 "General Technical Conditions for Children's Furniture" are worthy of reference:
In order to prevent children from hitting and hurting: the standard stipulates that the furniture should be below 160cm, and the edge and corner should have a rounding process of more than 1cm; for example, our common table, chair, bedside table or something.
In order to prevent the card finger: a hole having a depth of more than 1 cm, the diameter should be less than 0.6 cm or more than 1.2 cm. Many children's beds need to meet the requirements for the holes reserved for the mounting accessories.
In order to prevent children from suffocating: closed furniture space, including wardrobes with doors, storage cabinets or something, must have two vents with a diameter of about 3cm round holes.
In order to prevent falling and bruising: the drawer needs to have a device that prevents falling off, otherwise the low position will pull out to the foot, and the high position will reach the head; in order to prevent the furniture from falling over, the furniture over 60cm must have the wall and the wall. Anti-tip connection for the connection of the building.
“These items are for the standard of children's furniture in all categories. If you take the tape directly, you can measure the size of the object in the exhibition hall. You can also ask the manufacturer to provide data to judge whether it meets the national standard.†Designer Nan Da said that there is another comparison. Special standard - GB 24430.1-2009 "Safety Standard for Household Bunk Beds", the use of overhead bed needs to pay attention to:
Structural load-bearing: For materials, if it is a wooden material, there should be no insects.
In order to prevent the child from falling over and falling: for the surrounding fence, the bed is more than 30cm away from the bed. After installing the mattress, the height is not less than 20cm; therefore, when the parents choose the bed, besides paying attention to the height of the fence, the mattress is also It is not advisable to buy too high, the thickness of the mattress of the upper bed should not exceed 10cm.
In order to prevent the child's body card from entering the bed guardrail: for children under 6 years old, the front guardrail, the width of the ladder should be between 30~40cm; the spacing of the adjacent fences of the fence is 60-75mm.
Prevent children from going empty and falling down: the distance between the ladder pedals should be between 20-30cm.
Of course, there is an important factor in the safety of children's rooms – TVOC air pollutants including formaldehyde. There are several standards in the country that are related to this data. Just remember two key data:
The artificial board should meet the national mandatory standard (GB18580-2017), reach the E1 level, and the formaldehyde emission is less than 0.124mg/m?.
After the renovation is completed, the air quality of the home should be tested and accepted. According to the national standard (GB-50325-2012), the formaldehyde concentration detected after this should be less than 0.1mg/m?. Designer Nan Da suggested that after the renovation of the home, it is best to ventilate for 1-2 months before staying.
