1、Designation: F1587 12Standard Specification forHead and Face Protective Equipment for Ice HockeyGoaltenders1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1587; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last
2、 revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONIce hockey is a contact sport with intrinsic hazards. The use of protective equipment will noteliminate all injuries but s
3、hould substantially reduce the severity and frequency of many injuries.Participation in the sport of ice hockey by a player implies acceptance of some risk of injury. The goalis to reduce the risk.This performance specification for ice hockey goaltender head and face protective equipment hasbeen pre
4、pared after consideration of head and face protection relative to the following principle risks:high-mass/low-velocity impact with respect to head protection, low-mass/high-velocity with respect toface protection (various playing situations), and fit. This performance specification may be modifiedas
5、 other risks are identified.Performance requirements were determined after consideration of the state of the art of head andface protective design and manufacture. This specification was developed to address the uniquedemands and hazards associated with the position of ice hockey goaltender.Two type
6、s of protectors are designated. Both types are subject to impact resistance and shockattenuation requirements. Type I protectors are subject to hockey stick blade penetration resistancerequirements over their entire area of coverage. Type II protectors are subject to hockey puckpenetration resistanc
7、e requirements within the area of the field of vision and hockey stick bladepenetration resistance requirements over the remainder of the area of coverage. It is recommended thatType II protectors be used only by players 18 years of age and older.1. Scope1.1 This performance specification2covers per
8、formancerequirements for ice hockey goaltender head and face protec-tors.1.2 The intent of this performance specification is to reducethe risk of injury to the head and face of ice hockey goaltenderswithout compromising the form and appeal of the game.1.3 This specification has requirements for: (1)
9、 materials,assembly, and design; (2) protected areas (coverage) andpenetration resistance; (3) shock absorption; (4) puck impactresistance; (5) extensibility and strength of the chin strap andits attachment; and (6) optical quality.1.4 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas the stan
10、dard. No other units of measurement are included inthis standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, 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 appl
11、ica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
