This helmet combines a rigid outer shell with an energy‑absorbing EPS liner and a detachable polycarbonate visor. The design targets urban commuters and recreational riders who require eye protection without sacrificing ventilation or weight efficiency.
| Component | Typical Material | Key Property |
|---|---|---|
| Outer shell | ABS (Acrylonitrile‑Butadiene‑Styrene) or PC (Polycarbonate) | Impact resistance ≥ 30 J (Charpy) |
| Impact liner | Expanded polystyrene (EPS) | Compressive strength 0.8 MPa ± 0.1 MPa |
| Visor | Polycarbonate with UV‑stable anti‑fog layer | Light transmission 85 % ± 2 %; fog delay > 30 s at 25 °C, 80 % RH |
| Retention system | Nylon webbing with polyacetal buckle | Tensile strength ≥ 2 kN |
The visor attaches via two symmetrical latch points located at the temple areas. Each latch incorporates a spring‑loaded plunger that engages a recessed detent on the visor flange. Disengagement requires a downward press of 12 N ± 2 N on the latch release tab, after which the visor pivots upward and separates. The mechanism is rated for 5000 cycles without loss of retention force.
| Test | Standard | Result (Typical) |
|---|---|---|
| Impact absorption (frontal) | EN 1078:2012+A1:2012 | Peak acceleration ≤ 250 g |
| Penetration resistance | EN 1078 | No penetration at 3 J impact energy |
| Retention system strength | EN 1078 | Load to failure ≥ 2.3 kN |
| Visor optical clarity | ANSI Z87.1‑2020 | Haze ≤ 2 %; luminous transmittance ≥ 85 % |
Each production lot undergoes incoming material verification: shell polymer melt flow index, EPS bead expansion ratio, and visor coating thickness are measured against specification limits. During assembly, torque on the latch fasteners is checked with a calibrated driver, and a random sample of 1 % is subjected to a full impact test per EN 1078. Final inspection includes dimensional checks of the visor seating gap (0.5 mm ± 0.2 mm) and functional verification of the release mechanism.
