On which historical model is the design of this Gothic gorget based, and through which constructive details is the mobility of the multi-part chin guard ensured?

The design of this Gothic gorget is based on a historical model from 1480, crafted by the German armorer Matthes Deutsch (original in the Royal Armouries, Tower of London). The multi-part chin guard's mobility is ensured by the use of three movable plates, articulated together with rivets.
