DIN EN 13594:2016-01 EN 13594:2015 (E) 5 Introduction Motorcyclists gloves are intended to give protection against ambient conditions without unduly reducing the users dexterity in operating the motorcycles controls and switches. In addition, the
30、gloves are intended to give mechanical protection to the hands and wrists in accidents. The particular hazards common to motorcycle accidents are impacts with the motorcycle, conflicting vehicles, road furniture, and/or the road surface. The selection of the gloves by a rider depends on a variety of
31、 factors, such as the motorcycling discipline, the weather conditions, the frequency of putting on and taking off the gloves, and the duration that the gloves are typically worn. In order to encourage the adoption of certified protection by the highest possible number of users, two performance level
32、s are specified for gloves. These are level 1 for gloves designed to give protection while having low ergonomic penalties associated with their use and level 2 for gloves providing increased protection with respect to level 1. There may be, however, weight and restriction penalties associated with l
33、evel 2 protection. DIN EN 13594:2016-01 EN 13594:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard applies to protective gloves for motorcycle on-road use. It specifies the requirements for sizing, ergonomics, innocuousness, mechanical properties, impact protection, marking and information for users. It als
34、o describes the appropriate test methods. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
