Basic safety standards for kids swings

2021-07-09

The swing is free-standing, with at least 4 fixed pillars. The pillars should not be attached to the composite structure. The swing is for people of two different age groups (2 to 5 years old and 5 to 12 years old). It is best to install a rotary swing attachment, so as to minimize the number of chains wound around the top rail of the fence, and no more than two at most. The number under the swing is no more than two. It is best to use processed wood fiber on the lower surface of the swing, with a thickness of at least 2.5 cm, a rubber pad of 1.2 m*1.2 m, a depth of 15.2 cm to 20.3 cm, and a duckbill anchor for reinforcement. If there is not enough space to separate the fiber and sand at least 3 meters, then the sand and rubber surface can be combined. The swing chain should be 4.0 standard size galvanized steel (vinyl paint is not allowed on the chain).

The seat provided by the swing should be suitable for pre-school children and school-age children. If there is enough space, suitable swings should be provided for children of each age group, and seats with safety belts and recessed seats should be provided between the different shelf intervals of the swings. Swings with seat belts should be chemically resistant. The fully enclosed recessed back seat is only available if molded rubber is used, and only reinforced with steel products. Hard seats cannot be used. Half bucket seats with chains cannot be used.
In the swing safety zone, the front and back distance of the middle line of the swing is twice the height of the top rail, and the close distance between the support column and other post-festivals is 1.8 meters.
