22、 1To be published. EN 13087-5:2012 (E) DIN EN 13087-5:2012-044 Introduction This European Standard is intended as a supplement to the specific product standards for protective helmets (helmet standards). This method or other test methods may be applicable to specified for complete helmets or parts t
23、hereof, and may be referenced in the appropriate helmet standards. Performance requirements are given in the appropriate helmet standard, as are such prerequisites as the number of samples, preconditioning, preparation of samples for the tests, sequence and duration of testing and assessment of test
24、 results. If deviations from the test method given in this standard are necessary, these deviations will be specified in the appropriate helmet standard. EN 13087-5:2012 (E) DIN EN 13087-5:2012-04 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies methods of test for protective helmets. The purpose of these
25、 tests is to enable assessment of the performance of the helmet as specified in the appropriate helmet standard. This European Standard specifies the method of test for retention system strength. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this
26、document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 960:2006, Headforms for use in the testing of protective helmets EN 13087-1, Protecti

28、ameters shall be specified in the appropriate helmet standard: a) performance requirements; b) number of samples; c) preparation of samples; d) sequence of conditioning; e) sequence of tests; f) method of test - 5.2 (including 5.2.3.1 or 5.2.3.2), 5.3 or 5.4, and the initial and intermediate forces;
29、 g) sizes of the headforms; h) impact energy, including tolerance, of the falling mass - methods 5.3 and 5.4; i) fitting instructions. 5 Methods 5.1 General Testing shall be performed in ambient conditions specified in EN 13087-1. Three test methods are specified. The method to be used is specified
30、in the helmet standard. EN 13087-5:2012 (E) DIN EN 13087-5:2012-046 5.2 Headform support, increasing load method 5.2.1 Principle The helmet is supported on a headform and a specified, varying force is applied to the retention system via an artificial jaw. In method (a) (see 5.2.3.1) the ultimate ten
31、sile strength of the system alone is measured. In method (b) (see 5.2.3.2) the elongation of the system is measured as well. 5.2.2 Apparatus 5.2.2.1 General The apparatus shall include: a series of headforms; a rigid structure to support the headforms; an artificial jaw; a means of applying a variab
32、le tensile force to the artificial jaw; a means to measure the displacement of the artificial jaw. An arrangement of a suitable apparatus is shown in Figure 1. 5.2.2.2 Test headforms Headforms, conforming to EN 960:2006, 2.2, 3.1.2 and 3.2. The sizes to be used are specified in the helmet standard,
33、but shall be selected from size designations 495, 535, 575, 605 and 625 (equivalent to codes A, E, J, M and O, respectively, EN 960:1994). 5.2.2.3 Rigid structure Rigid structure, capable of supporting the headform so that it does not move during the test. 5.2.2.4 Artificial jaw Artificial jaw, comp
34、rising two rigid cylindrical rollers of diameter (12,5 0,5) mm, with their longitudinal axes separated by (75 2) mm. 5.2.2.5 Means of applying a known variable force to the artificial jaw Any suitable means may be used. 5.2.2.6 Means to measure the displacement of the artificial jaw Any suitable mea
35、ns may be used. EN 13087-5:2012 (E) DIN EN 13087-5:2012-04 7 5.2.3 Procedure 5.2.3.1 Method (a) Mount the helmet on the appropriate headform, pass the chinstrap through and secure it around the artificial jaw. Apply the initial tensile force as specified in the appropriate helmet standard to the art
36、ificial jaw. Increase the force at a rate of (20 2) N/min until the artificial jaw is released due to failure of the retention system. Record the maximum force measured during the test and the mode of failure of the retention system. 5.2.3.2 Method (b) Mount the helmet on the appropriate headform, p
37、ass the chinstrap through and secure it around the artificial jaw. Apply the initial tensile force as specified in the appropriate helmet standard in order to ensure that the fastening device is correctly tightened. Note the position, P0, of the load bearing spindle to the nearest millimetre. Increa
38、se the force over a period of (30 3) s up to the intermediate force specified in the appropriate helmet standard. Maintain this force for (120 3) s, then note the position, P1, of the load bearing spindle to the nearest millimetre, and, if required by the appropriate helmet standard, re-measure the
39、width of the chinstrap. Increase the force at a rate of (500 50) N/min until the artificial jaw is released due to failure of the retention system. Record the maximum force measured during the test and the mode of failure of the retention system. 5.2.4 Test report Method (a) Report the maximum force
40、 measured during the test and the mode of failure of the retention system. Method (b) Calculate and report the elongation of the retention system as the difference between positions P0and P1. Report the maximum force measured during the test and the mode of failure of the retention system, and, if r
41、equired, the width of the chinstrap. 5.3 Hook support, dynamic load method 5.3.1 Principle The helmet, including retention system, is fitted to a headform which is then subjected to a sudden downward force. The maximum and residual displacements of the headform are measured. 5.3.2 Apparatus 5.3.2.1
42、General The apparatus shall include: a series of headforms; a helmet support hook assembly; EN 13087-5:2012 (E) DIN EN 13087-5:2012-048 a rigid structure to support the helmet and loading system; a falling mass and associated guidance system; a means to measure impact speed; a means to measure the p
43、osition and displacement of the headform in a vertical direction. An arrangement of a suitable apparatus is shown in Figure 2. 5.3.2.2 Test headforms The headforms shall comply with EN 960:2006, 2.2, 3.1.2 and 3.2. The sizes to be used are specified in the helmet standard, but shall be selected from
44、 size designations 495, 515, 535, 555, 575, 585, 605 and 625 (equivalent to codes A, C, E, G, J, K, M and O, respectively, EN 960:1994). Each headform, together with the parts attached to it, shall have a total mass of (15 0,5) kg. 5.3.2.3 Helmet support hook assembly The helmet support hook assembl
45、y shall be made from steel and is shown in Figure 3. 5.3.2.4 Rigid structure The rigid structure shall adequately support the helmet and loading system during the test. 5.3.2.5 Falling mass and guidance system A guidance system shall be provided to enable the falling mass of (10 0,1) kg to be droppe
46、d in guided fall on to the metal end stop. The guidance system shall be such as to ensure that the falling mass falls with an impact speed of no less than 95 % of that which would theoretically obtain for a free fall. 5.3.2.6 Means to measure impact speed Means shall be provided to measure the speed
47、 of the falling mass at a distance of no more than 60 mm prior to impact, to within an accuracy of 1 %. The impact speed shall be measured during the commissioning of the apparatus. It need not be done for each test. 5.3.2.7 Means to observe the position and displacement of the headform in a vertica
48、l direction Any suitable means may be used. 5.3.3 Procedure Support the helmet from the rigid structure by means of the helmet support hook passing through a suitable hole drilled through the point of the helmet which corresponds with the central vertical axis of the headform. Insert the headform into the helmet and locate the guide so that the falling mass is free to move only along a vertical line tha
