BS EN 16027:2011EN 16027:2011 (E) 4 Introduction Whilst many types of gloves for goal keepers are only designed to facilitate catching the ball and provide cushioning
18、from minor contusions, gloves can also be designed to provide additional protection to the hands and particularly the fingers. These are intended to reduce the risk of fractures, by restricting the flexing under impact of joints beyond their natural range of movement. BS EN 16027:2011EN 16027:2011 (
19、E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard applies to gloves for goal keepers for association football (in the following text just “gloves for goal keepers“) with stabilizing and/or stiffening elements (e.g. splint, brace), which due to their construction, provide a protective effect against injuries of th
20、e hand or parts of it, such as torn capsules, broken fingers, sprained fingers and wrists. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest editio

24、 EN 13061:2009, 2.4 4 Requirements 4.1 General Gloves for goal keepers shall be safe and suitable for their purpose when used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. They shall be free of hard or sharp edges or corners, buckles or other objects on the inside and the surface of the product
25、 which may be dangerous for the user or others during normal or foreseeable use when tested in accordance with 5.3. 4.2 Innocuousness Manufacturers of products complying with this standard should consider the health and protection of the user, the environment and the supply chain. Materials used sho
26、uld not, during foreseeable conditions of normal use, release or degrade to release substances generally known to be hazardous. BS EN 16027:2011EN 16027:2011 (E) 6 The manufacturer should list in the information supplied by the manufacturer the substances used for the main components of the product.
27、 NOTE Information on the identification and classification of such substances can be found in the Directive 67/548/EEC (classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances) 1 as well as in the Regulation (EC) no.1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006
28、concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH)2. 4.3 Ergonomics Gloves for goalkeepers shall be designed in such a way that the user can perform the typical movements required by the foreseeable conditions of use without restrictions, closure systems whic
29、h ensure correct fitting and placement of the glove shall be adjustable and suitable to ensure restraint of the item whilst in use without constriction of the joint between the hand and arm. Testing shall be in accordance with 5.3. 4.4 Stiffness Gloves for goalkeepers shall be designed and manufactu
30、red with suitable stabilising and stiffening elements such that they support the fingers when they are stressed by a load or impact inverse to the natural flex direction of the fingers without endangering the hand, wrist or arm of the user. Testing shall be in accordance with 5.4, and the force meas
31、ured shall be within the limits specified in Table 1. 4.5 Restraint system Gloves for goalkeepers shall be easily fitted and adjusted by the user using a suitable restraint system. They shall fit firmly to the hand of the intended size, shall not release from the hand during use, and shall remain in
32、 the location they are designed to protect during all typical movements or impact. When tested in accordance with 5.5, the maximum displacement shall be less than 20 mm. 4.6 Impact strength Gloves for goal keepers with stabilizing and stiffening elements (e.g. splint, brace) shall be resistant again
33、st mechanical impacts. Stabilizing and stiffening elements shall not break or splinter, when tested according to 5.6. 4.7 Sizing Gloves shall be available in a range of sizes suitable for the varying hand size of the intended user. The manufacturer shall indicate the intended size for which the glov
34、e is designed. The size of the glove with protective effect shall be defined according to EN 420:2003+A1:2009, 5.1.2, Table 3. 5 Test methods 5.1 General Where no specific testing procedure is given, compliance with the requirements of this standard shall be established by measurement, visual and ph
35、ysical examination. For testing, new unused samples shall be used. Measuring instruments unless otherwise specified shall be accurate to 2 % of the pass/fail level of the characteristics being measured. BS EN 16027:2011EN 16027:2011 (E) 7 For each of the required sequences of measurement performed i
36、n accordance with this standard a corresponding estimate of the uncertainty of the final result shall be determined. The uncertainty of measurement shall be expressed in the form X. It shall be used in determining whether a “PASS” performance has been achieved. If the final result minus X is below t
37、he pass level and there is the requirement that a certain value shall be exceeded then the sample shall be deemed to have failed. NOTE It is anticipated that values of uncertainty of measurement will usually be between 2 % and 5 % of the measured value for force and length measurements. 5.2 Sampling
38、 and conditioning Two pairs of unused gloves for goal keepers of each size distributed to the market shall be provided for testing. The samples shall be conditioned for at least 24 h in an atmosphere of (20 2) C and a humidity of (65 5) %. Testing shall be carried out in the conditioning environment
39、 or within 10 min of removal from that environment. 5.3 Ergonomics At least two sizes of gloves, one sample each, shall be used. Each sample shall be put on and adjusted by a subject of appropriate dimensions of the intended user according to the information supplied by the manufacturer. Check by vi
40、sual and/or tactile inspection that the glove is free of hard or sharp edges or corners, seams and buckles and that the restraint system does not constrict the user in use. For testing the typical movements, a subject shall catch and fist a ball according to the rules of association football. The su
41、bject shall report any restrictions or severe discomfort when executing typical moves. The size of the gloves with protective effect shall be tested according to EN 420:2003+A1:2009, 6.1.3. 5.4 Stiffness 5.4.1 Apparatus The apparatus is illustrated in Figure 1. The apparatus comprises a palm support
42、 on which to place the palm of the glove to be tested and a finger support on which to place all fingers of the glove except the thumb. The finger support is attached to a pivot table lever. A scale enables measurement of the pivot angle of the lever with an accuracy of 1. The surfaces of the palm s
43、upport and of the finger support are on same level with accuracy of 0,2 mm. The pivot axis of the lever is (18 0,2) mm below the upper surface of the finger support. The apparatus further comprises a holding bar to press down the glove to the palm support. The surface of this bar facing the glove is
44、 plane with a radius of (3 0,1) mm on both long edges of the bar. The total width of the bar shall be 15 mm and the length minimum 200 mm. The long axis of the bar shall be parallel to the pivot axis with an accuracy of 0,5. The horizontal distance of long axis of the bar to the pivot axis shall be
45、(17,5 0,2) mm. A guiding system shall be provided to keep the holding bar in horizontal orientation with an accuracy of 1. The holding bar shall be weight loaded so that it shall be pressed down to the gloves upper surface with a force according to Table 1. A force to pivot the lever shall be applie
46、d radial to the pivot axis with a distance of (170 5) mm. The force shall be measured by a strain gauge or other appropriate instrumentation with an accuracy of 0,5 N. To replace the fingers of the hand, the fingers of the gloves except the thumb shall be filled with extension springs according to E
47、N 13906-2 with the following specifications: De=15 mm, d=1,5 mm, spring steel according to EN 10270-1, any grade, length min. 200 mm.
