Buckle. 8.2.1.1. Opening test under load 8.2.1.1.1. A child restraint already having been subjected to the dynamic test specified in paragraph 8.1.3. shall be used for this test. 8.2.1.1.2. The child restraint shall be removed from the test trolley or the vehicle without opening the buckle. A tension of 200 ± 2 N shall be applied to the buckle. If the buckle is attached to a rigid part, the force shall be applied reproducing the angle formed between the buckle and that rigid part during the dynamic test. 8.2.1.1.3. A load shall be applied at a speed of 400 ± 20 mm/min to the geometric centre of the buckle-release button along a fixed axis running parallel to the initial direction of motion of the button; the geometric centre applies to that part of the surface of the buckle to which the release pressure is to be applied. The buckle shall be secured against a rigid support during the application of the opening force. 8.2.1.1.4. The buckle opening force shall be applied, using a dynamometer or similar device in the manner and direction of normal use. The contact end shall be a polished metal hemisphere with radius 2.5 ± 0.1 mm. 8.2.1.1.5. The buckle opening force shall be measured and any failure noted. 8.2.1.2. Opening test under zero load 8.2.1.2.1. A buckle assembly which has not previously been subjected to a load shall be mounted and positioned under a "no load" condition. 8.2.1.2.2. The method of measuring the buckle opening force shall be as prescribed in paragraphs 8.2.1.1.3. and 8.2.1.1.4. 8.2.1.2.3. The buckle opening force shall be measured.
