Many child vehicles are on the market that are unqualified. The problems are mainly happened during normal use and foreseeable abuse. And reasons may lead to the problems are various, including the shape, size, strength, small gears, prominent parts, packaging bags and film, folding structure, accessibility of gaps and mechanical device, stability and overload requirement, operating manual, products marking, anti collision distance and so on. The child vehicles may need to assemble by ourselves, and assemble it correctly according to the manual is a effective way to avoid the danger during use.Besides, we should try those single-function child vehicles, because they always have more scientific and reasonable structure. For those vehicles which are multifunctional, the structure might be too complicated to keep every function and part maintain safe. 1)Child Bicycle. - Choose the bicycle based on kid’s age and height. - Pay attention to the size of handbrake. Children may be not able to stop the bicycle if handbrake is too big to grip. - Do not move the balance wheel optionally during the daily use. - Make sure there is a chain cover on the bicycle, that will protect children from putting their fingers into the chain. 2)Child Tricycle. - Check and make sure there is no any squeeze point that might cause harm before buying. - Width of every gaps on moving parts or between moving parts should be less than 5mm or greater than 12mm, to avoid children pinch their fingers. - Check carefully if these small components of tricycle is safe for children. 3)Baby Carriage. - Besides the solid structure of the vehicle, it is also necessary to pay attention to whether the locking mechanism and the safety device of the carriage are complete and reliable. If there is only a locking mechanism and no safety device, once the locking mechanism fails, it may cause serious injury to children. - Pay attention to whether the height of the seat cushion is appropriate, and whether the shoulder strap, fork strap, cross strap, buckle, seat belt and other devices are firm and reliable, so as to ensure that the child will not fall out of the carriage and get injured because of the failing of seat belt or other devices. - Try not leave the carriage during daily use, in case of something happened. 4)Baby Walker. - The stability, rigidity and frame strength of the product should be considered when choosing the baby walker, especially the locking device, in order to prevent the walker to fold by itself and cause injury because the child jumps in the walker and causing the locking device to loose. - Do not use the baby walker on uneven roads, slopes, stairways, bathrooms, kitchens, near to electrical appliances and other dangerous places. 5)Electric Child Vehicle. - Pay attention to the stability and maximum load of the vehicle. - The maximum speed of the electric baby carriage should be particularly considered. For vehicle with a speed faster than 8km/h, it will be difficult for the...

Dry and wet colour fastness crock test is mainly used to test the color fastness of textiles, and widely used in the textile industry. Currently, there are different types of wet and dry colour fastness crock in the textile instrument industry. The commonly used color fastness crock tester is electric dry and wet crockmeter and manual dry and wet crockmeter.This article mainly takes the electric dry and wet crockmeter as an example. Scope of Application: The instrument can be used to test the color fastness of colored fabric such as cotton, chemical fiber and blending. Detail of Machine： Crockmeter is used to test color fastness, which may cause color transfer to other surfaces due to friction. The tester gets its name from  "crock", which refers to the transfer of pigment or other substances from the specimen to the dry and wet fabric with rub against each other. The tester includes a base plate and a sample to be tested is fixed on it. Rubbing head can be moved back and forth along the specimen. And rubbing cloth is installed on the test head. The movement of the rubbing head is controlled by crankshaft transmission, and it has a certain load. Dyed fabrics are usually tested using a white standard rubbing cloth.

The common problem of cracking of trousers and apparel products is that the tension is large during people's wearing, especially when they are squatting, and they are often in a tortuous state. Many clothing companies have encountered market complaints due to cracked pants and worn pants. So how did this happen? How to control quality? Analysis of the causes of cracking of pants The reason for the cracking of the pants can be attributed to three categories. The first category: the poor of fabric breaking strength and tear strength.The mainly reason is that the clothing companies do not strictly control the indicators of product strength, as long as the strong standards are controlled, they can be avoided.Every clothing companies can test sample all kinds of material in the process of manufacturing finished garments. The second category: poor wear resistance.The breaking strength and tearing strength of this kind of fabric can reach the national standard, but the fabric is cracked after repeated bending and wear of the fabric during the wearing process, but the consumers wear fabric in the process of repeated twists and wear cause the phenomenon of cracking. The most typical denim fabric, its breaking and tearing strength must meet the requirements of FZ/T 81006-2007 "Jeanswear". During the wearing process, the pants fabric is first worn and then cracked, especially the polyester-cotton interwoven jeans which are dealt by resin. The resin dealing causes the abrasion resistance of the fabric to decrease, resulting in serious wear. In addition to jeans fabrics, there is also a class of chemical fiber interwoven fabrics that are easily overlooked by apparel manufacturers. These fabrics all contain chemical fibers. Because the chemical fiber strength is generally high, it will cause an illusion when tested, and the tearing and breaking strength is very high. In fact, this is because of the high-strength chemical fiber support. The strength of the fabric is poor, such as cellulose fiber cannot be reflected. This situation leads to mass accidents that occur during wear.To test the quality of such fabrics, only focus on breaking strength and tearing strength can not be effectively controlled, but also to increase the wear resistance test. The third category: yarn slippage at the seam of the crotch.These fabrics can reached national standards in all aspects,even exceed it. But the yarn can easily slip off the seam, causing cracking. Cracking remedies and precautions In the dyeing production and the washing process of finished pants, a large amount of softener is added in order to improve the feel of the pants. However, this process exacerbates the slippage cracking and need cracking inhibitor to for remedy for that. The cracking inhibitor is a high molecular polymer which increases the surface friction coefficient of the yarn and improves the slip of the fabric. Nevertheless, this method is an after-the-fact remedy, increasing costs, time and effort, and ...

Does below situation happens to your new shoes with a bonding gap or sole-crack for wearing within a short time? Just as below pictures: What happens? You might say the quality of the shoes is not so well, so where the problem lies in? The reason why this situation appears is that the the flexing resistance of the finished shoes is a failure. The flexing resistance of finished shoes refers to the finished shoes’ durability for the bending or folding under a certain temperature and certain force. General speaking, it’s a repetition twisting process between human foot and shoes. The test standard for shoes flexing resistance: GB/T 3903.1-2017Footwear,Test Method for  Whole shoe , Flexing Resistance.This test standard is used for test whole shoes and sole, not suitable for the heel excess 70mm, or the part of sole’s flexing more than 25mm,or the finished shoes with strong stiffness. This is Flexing Resistance Tester: The testing principle of Shoes Flexing Tester is to use a cutting knife cut a crack with specified length of whole shoes or sole, then to do the flexing test under certain angle and rate. After test, measure the length of the crack and at the same time, observe the changes of the joints of the upper surface, the sole and the bottom (including the fence and the bottom wall). Move like this: Is it a similar motion when you are walking? Each test should need not less than a pair of whole shoes or sole.  The test bending angle should be （50±1）°, the flexing rate should be （230±10）times/min. The test temperature should be （23±2）℃. Do the test for 40,000.00 circles. As below pictures show: The standard requires the cutting position should be in the middle of the toe flexion of the sole of the shoe, and the sole needs to be cut through. As showed in the pictures: Not all the shoes need the cutting crack in advance, different standards requires different specification. For example: Sneaker （GB/T 15107-2013） It requires not cutting, and it continually bends 40,000 times, the qualified products should not be crack after the bending. The bottom wall, upper bottom the shoe sole should be ≤5.0mm;After folding, the shoe sole shall not have more than 3 cracks, and the longest crack length shall be ≤5.0mm;The sole must not appear Color falling off; air (liquid) cushion should not appear air leakage (liquid) or collapse phenomenon after folding the air cushion shoe. leisure shoe （QB/T 2955-2017） It requires cutting 5.0mm in advance, qualified products require that the length of the cut opening is ≤ 20.0mm after bending. The new crack length is ≤ 5.0mm after folding, and should not exceed 3 places. After the fold, there should be no cracking on the face, cracking or opening the bottom, and is no testing the fold resistance if the shoe size is below 230mm. Natural leather out sole also does not measure wear resistance. Test Results: 1.Number of newly generated cracks and longest new crack length, glue failure length of the bonding part of t...
