Scope1.1 This specification covers performance requirements andtest methods for throat protectors marketed, sold, and intendedfor ice hockey

3、goalkeepers.1.2 The intent of this specification is to reduce the risk ofinjury to the throat without compromising the form or appeal ofthe game. To do so, the protector shall be used:1.2.1 As intended within the rules of the game and1.2.2 In accordance with the manufacturers instructions.1.3 Ice ho

4、ckey is a sport with intrinsic hazards associatedwith the normal conduct of the game. Participation in icehockey implies the acceptance of some risk of injury. Use of athroat protector certified to this specification will not preventall injuries.1.4 This specification has been prepared after careful

5、 con-sideration of the frequency and mechanisms associated withthroat injuries that can potentially occur within the rules of thegame of ice hockey.1.5 Requirements and the corresponding test methods,where appropriate, are given for the following:1.5.1 Construction,1.5.2 Puck impact resistance,1.5.3

6、 Coverage,1.5.4 Marking and information.1.6 Throat protection is intended for use by goalkeepers.1.7 Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and viceversa) when the sense allows.1.8 Although the intended primary application of this speci-fication is stated in this scope, note that it remain

7、s theresponsibility of the users of this specification to judge itssuitability for their particular purpose.1.9 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.10 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety conc

8、erns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
