电动自行车安全头盔测评：六成样品不符合标准，存在安全风险

Core Viewpoint - Electric bicycles have become an important mode of transportation for citizens, but the associated safety risks cannot be ignored. The Taizhou Consumer Rights Protection Committee recently released a comparative test report on electric bicycle safety helmets for 2025, aiming to provide consumers with authoritative and practical guidance for purchasing safe and reliable helmet products [1][2]. Group 1: Test Results - Out of 25 helmet samples tested, 15 did not meet the required standards, including 9 adult helmets and 6 children's helmets. The non-compliance mainly focused on five aspects: visor, retention system strength, labeling, penetration resistance, and structure [1][2]. - The comparative test involved random sampling of helmets from physical stores and e-commerce platforms in Taizhou, with all samples being Class A helmets [2]. - The testing criteria were based on GB 811-2022, which includes seven testing items: structure, quality, visibility, visor, retention system strength, penetration resistance, and labeling [2]. Group 2: Specific Non-compliance Issues - Three samples failed to meet structural standards, which could lead to "protection failure" during accidents. The core issue was that the retention system's strap width did not meet the ≥20mm standard [7]. - Eight samples were found to have visors with a visible light transmittance below the required 85%, which could impair the rider's visual judgment and increase accident risks [10][12]. - Nine samples did not meet the strength standards for the retention system, with issues such as strap tearing, slipping from connectors, and overall damage [14]. - Four samples failed the penetration resistance test, where a steel cone penetrated the helmet, violating the performance requirement that it should not contact the head model [17]. Group 3: Labeling and Compliance - Six samples did not comply with labeling standards, which are crucial for conveying product safety information. Issues included incomplete labeling, incorrect usage restrictions, and misleading claims about certification [19]. - The Taizhou Consumer Rights Protection Committee noted that some merchants exhibited "goods not matching the description" phenomena, particularly regarding the presence of CCC certification marks [19]. Group 4: Consumer Guidance - Consumers are advised to recognize CCC certification marks when purchasing electric bicycle helmets and to choose reputable physical stores or online platforms. They should carefully check product labels for manufacturer information, production dates, and compliance standards [24]. - It is essential to inspect the helmet's structural integrity, ensuring no cracks, clear visor visibility, and proper fit before use [24].
