The inspector checks the basic situation of sofa surface material by pressing and touching the sofa.

Sofa Inspection Standards

The Sofa Inspection Standard Is Not As Simple As You Think.

Sofa is one of the furniture that we often come into contact with in our daily life, so how do you know what kind of inspection the sofa needs before entering the mall? What is the sofa inspection standard?

The sofa is made of various materials, so how to better judge the quality of the sofa, first of all, we must judge the type of sofa, classify it according to the standard, and check and accept sofas with different specifications and shapes.

Sofa Inspection Standards-Product Classification

(1) according to the seat surface elastic material classification

① Concave spiral spring sofa: the sofa made of concave spring and foam plastic is the main elastic material of the seat surface.

② Snake-spring sofa: the sofa whose seat surface is mainly made of snake spring and foam plastic.

③ Sponge sofa: the sofa made of elastic bandage and/or foam plastic is the main elastic material of the seat surface.

④ Hybrid spring sofa: the main elastic material of the seat surface is the seat surface spring composed of concave spiral spring, snake spring and other springs.

Core, sofa made of foam plastic.

(2) Classification according to coated fabrics

① All-leather sofa: except the bottom of the sofa seat, the sofa is covered with natural animal leather.

② Main parts of leather sofa: sofa seat, front of backrest, upper edge of backrest, inner side of armrest and upper edge of armrest are all made of natural materials.

Leather-covered sofa.

Sofa Inspection Standards-Test Methods And Experimental Items

(1) main dimensions

The main dimension inspection of the product shall check whether the design dimension marked on the drawing conforms to the provisions .

(2) Size limit deviation

① A 3m steel tape measure with an error of 0.6mm per meter should be used to measure the size of the product and compare it with the design size marked on the drawing.

The difference is the limit deviation.

② The symmetry degree of the seat and the back is to measure the length of two diagonals of the seat and the back respectively, and then calculate the diagonals respectively.

Difference.

③ The thickness difference of the surrounding edges is to measure the thickness of the corresponding surrounding edges on both sides of the sofa symmetry axis, and then calculate the thickness of the corresponding surrounding edges.

The difference.

④ the symmetry of armrests is to measure the length of two diagonals of a quadrilateral by taking the front faces of two armrests as the opposite sides of the quadrilateral.

Size, and then find the diagonal difference, which is the difference of handrail symmetry.

⑤ The height in front of the seat means that a circular cushion block with a diameter of 100mm is placed on the center line of the sofa seat surface, so that the side of the cushion block is flush with the front edge of the sofa. Right

Place the cushion block at the front edge of the sofa seat just where it won’t fall off at the arc front edge, and apply 75N force vertically downward through the cushion block (including the cushion block from

Weight), measure the distance between the pad surface and the horizontal ground and subtract the pad thickness to get the height in front of the seat (see Figure 2).

(3) Moisture content of wood

Use a wood moisture meter with an accuracy of 2%. Choose three parts at the part of the sample more than 100mm above the ground, and each part measures three points.

Calculate the arithmetic average value of each component, and the reading is accurate to 1%. Take the maximum average value as the measured value of wood moisture content.

(4) Foamed plastics

Measurement of apparent (volume) density, tensile strength and compression set.

(5) Physical and chemical properties of sofa leather fabric

Thickness, tear strength, elongation at break, color rubbing fastness and coating adhesion fastness are measured according to GB/T 4698. 20, and the sampling position is the seat of the specimen! Back.

(6) Durability

The durability test of products is determined according to relevant standards.

(7) Physical and chemical properties of paint film coating/electroplating layer

① The physical and chemical properties of the paint film on the surface of wooden parts are in accordance with GB/T 4893.4, GB/T 4893.6, GB/T 4893. 7.GB/T 4893.8,

③ The physical and chemical properties of electroplated layer on the surface of metal parts shall be determined according to 5.12.2 in GB/T 3325-1995.

(8) the degree of fabric seam detachment

The seam detachment degree test of the product fabric is determined according to the relevant standards.

(9) Unevenness of the product’s foot on the ground.

The size of the flat plate should be no less than 2200mmX 1200mm, the height is not limited, and the front surface is no more than 0. 5mm. Place the sample on the flat plate and collect it.

Measure the distance between the bottom of the foot and the surface of the flat plate with a feeler gauge.

(10) Stiffness of wood skeleton

Pick up a front landing point of the surgical skeleton sofa to the specified grading index height, and then check the other-

If the seam between the first landing point and the ground is poor, it can be judged that the classification index of this inspection item is qualified.

(11) product appearance and senses

Product appearance and sensory inspection should be in natural light or similar natural light (such as 40W fluorescent lamp), with a visual distance of 700mm ~ 1000mm, and the visual distance of 3

People together, with most of the same conclusion as the evaluation basis.
