28、ing and white water sports happens when a person strikes an underwater object after capsizing. Under these circumstances it is extremely unlikely that the speed of impact will be greater than 18 km/h (5 m/s) because this is the highest recorded rate of flow in a white water river. The most common si
29、te of injury is the frontal or forehead area or the side of the eye socket. To achieve the performance of which the helmet is capable, and to ensure stability on the head, it needs to be as close fitting as possible consistent with comfort. The helmet has to be securely fastened on to the head, and
30、any chin strap has to be under tension at all times. The protection given by a helmet depends on the circumstances of the accident and wearing a helmet does not always prevent death or long term disability. A proportion of the energy of an impact is absorbed by the helmet, thereby reducing the force
31、 of the blow sustained by the head. The structure of the helmet may be damaged in absorbing this energy and any helmet that sustains a severe blow needs to be replaced even if damage is not apparent. This standard includes the International Canoe Federation classification of risks. 1 Scope This Euro
32、pean Standard specifies requirements for helmets for canoeing and white water sports for use in waters of classes 1 to 4 as classified by Clause 4. The levels of protection recognize that most fatalities in canoeing and white water sports result from drowning after concussion and not from brain dama
33、ge. This standard is not intended to apply to helmets for use in extreme white water situations such as those where the jumping of high waterfalls is undertaken, because the need for impact absorption for such a helmet, and the area of the head to be protected, are greater than those for most canoei
34、ng and white water sports. The standard applies to helmets with and without holes in the shell. NOTE This standard does not provide performance requirements for visors, chin-guards or face-guards. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions fr
35、om other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendm

NOTE 2 Helmets for use in water classes 5 and 6 are outside the scope of this stand
44、ard. It is expected that these helmets will have performance requirements in excess of this standard. 5 Construction 5.1 Materials The mechanical properties of the materials used in the manufacture of the helmet should not deteriorate significantly during the period of normal use, due to influences
45、such as exposure to sun, to temperature changes or to fresh or salt water. Metal parts used to fasten the chin strap and/or a suspension cradle to the shell, should be protected from or resistant to corrosion. The materials forming the parts of the helmet coming into contact with the skin should not
46、 deteriorate in strength significantly due to contact with sweat, and materials which are known to cause skin disorders shall not be used. The thread used for stitching on webbing should be resistant to rotting. 5.2 Extent of shell When the helmet is placed on a headform of size given in Table 1, an
47、d the chin strap is secured, the shell, including any holes, shall cover all parts of the headform above the lines ACDF shown in Figure 1a and Figure 1b, except that there may be cut-outs on each side of the helmet to expose the ears for hearing purposes. The dimension “Y” (see figure 1) for the hea
48、dforms in Table 1 shall be taken from Table 1 of EN 960: 1994. The point C for each headform (Figure 1a and Figure 1b) is the midpoint of AZ and the point D is vertically beneath it on the reference plane. Table 1 Sizes of headforms 5.3 Holes The shell may be pierced by holes that allow ventilation
49、or the draining of water. 5.4 Projections Rivet heads shall be rounded and shall not project more than 2 mm beyond the outer surface of the shell. All edges of the shell shall be smooth and rounded to a radius of not less than 1 mm. Any rigid internal projection shall be covered with protective padding. Class 1Not difficult. Regular current, small waves and riffles, occasional small rapids, pebble banks, no or few obstructions. Class 2Moderately di
