Description

The invention relates to a donning aid device with a glove donning aid according to the preamble of claim 1.

A glove donning aid as a flat hand template with four template finger elements and a handle is known from US 2016/03 02 602 A1. A multifunctional dressing aid with a glove donning aid and an additional shoe donning aid is available DE 20 2019 002 418 U1 known. The above tightening aids have disadvantages and weaknesses that can be improved in terms of their function, handling and production as well as multifunctional use.

The object of the invention is therefore to propose a tightening aid device that is improved in terms of function, handling and application.

This task is solved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous and expedient designs are claimed with the features of the subclaims.

According to claim 1, the donning aid device has a glove donning aid or is designed as such, the glove donning aid being suitable for being inserted into a glove as a hand and finger guide, and wherein the glove donning aid is provided by a hand template is formed, which has a palm-like area, preferably as an at least partial palm replica of a human hand, from which a finger arrangement with at least one template finger element projects in an elongated manner. According to the invention, the palm-like area on the front and / or on the back, preferably for the reversible use of the glove donning aid on both the front and the back, has at least one guide element, by means of which the fingers or at least one finger of a human hand Direction towards the at least one template finger element can be guided.

With such a guide element, it is possible in a simple manner to guide the fingers on the palm-like area in the direction of the template finger elements when the donning aid device is inserted into a glove, so that incorrect donning of the glove can be prevented in a functionally safe and reliable manner. This is a significant advantage in general, but especially for children, older people or people with disabilities.

Particularly advantageous here is the preferred embodiment, according to which at least one such guide element is provided on both the front and the back so that the glove donning aid can be used on both sides. This makes it irrelevant which side up or down the donning aid is inserted into a glove. The operation of the tightening aid device can therefore be even more time-saving and easier.

The solution according to the invention thus provides an improved glove donning aid, which can be easily inserted into a glove (finger glove, mitten), with the interior of the glove being spread open for comfortable, precise insertion of a human hand. The donning aid device designed as a glove donning aid can preferably be used for putting on finger gloves. Especially where these have to be changed often for hygiene reasons, such as in the food industry (e.g. bakeries, pastry shops, butchers, etc.), in clinics, in care facilities, etc. or in groups of people such as children, the elderly or the disabled For people, etc., who have difficulty putting on gloves, especially finger gloves, the glove donning aid is particularly advantageous in order to be able to put on a glove, especially a finger glove, easily and quickly.

The advantages just mentioned in connection with putting on naturally also apply in an analogous manner to taking off a glove, that is to say that the donning aid is of course always also a doffing aid and the glove donning aid is always a glove removal aid . This is not mentioned separately above and below for reasons of clarity and better readability, but nevertheless always applies in an analogous manner.

Gloves are available in different sizes and materials for different purposes. For example, finger gloves made of thin plastic materials in the hygiene sector are available, as are winter gloves for hand warming made of thick materials. Depending on the gloves used to be put on, different sizes and different finger arrangements on the palm replica of the flat hand template can be useful and advantageous. In addition, it goes without saying that the glove donning aid can of course also be used for putting on and/or taking off socks, stockings or similar items of clothing Can be used, which means that the glove donning aid according to the invention can also be used as a sock and/or stocking donning aid. For reasons of clarity and better readability, this will not be mentioned separately each time below, but it nevertheless always applies in an analogous manner.

The at least one guide element can basically be designed in different ways, for example recessed in a groove-shaped manner in the manner of a longitudinal groove. However, as the inventor's investigations have shown, it is particularly advantageous for finger guidance if on the back and/or on the front of the palm-like area there are several longitudinal elevations that extend in the direction of the template finger elements and are spaced apart from one another, preferably running approximately in a straight line are arranged as guide elements, because in this case two adjacent longitudinal elevations form a groove-like finger guide between them in the direction of the at least one template finger element. In addition, such longitudinal elevations advantageously contribute to stabilizing the auxiliary tightening device.

A finger arrangement on the palm-like area can in principle only have a single elongated, preferably flat and/or thin-walled, template finger element. Particularly preferred, however, is an embodiment in which the finger arrangement has a plurality of stencil finger elements, each spaced apart and stretched, preferably flat and/or thin-walled, with a gap in between. Particularly in connection with the second-mentioned alternative and the plurality of template finger elements, it is particularly advantageous for reliable and correct guidance of the fingers of a hand if the spaced apart, preferably approximately straight, longitudinal elevations are in the area or at the level of the between the Extend the gap formed by the template finger elements over the palm-like area.

According to a first specific embodiment, which is particularly suitable for use with thin plastic materials in the hygiene sector, there are exactly four on the palm-like area, each spaced apart or slightly spread with a gap in between, and stretched, preferably flat and / or thin-walled, Stencil finger elements are provided, preferably a stencil index finger, a stencil middle finger, a stencil ring finger and a stencil little finger. The corresponding four plug-in openings for inserting the fingers and the palm holder on a finger glove are spread open with the glove donning aid inserted. A thumb usually finds its way into the thumb finger of the glove easily and without additional help.

Alternatively, the finger arrangement on the palm-like area can have exactly three template finger elements, each spaced apart and stretched with a gap in between, preferably flat and / or thin-walled, preferably a template index finger, a template middle finger and a template ring finger. It has been shown that with this finger arrangement, i.e. without the fourth template little finger, a simple, effective insertion movement of a hand into a finger glove is possible under normal circumstances. This also makes it easy to put on a mitten.

Depending on the desired use and type of gloves to be put on, a finger arrangement with exactly two, each spaced apart and stretched, preferably flat and/or thin-walled, template finger elements with a gap in between can also be sufficient for a simple donning process. Two stencil finger elements lying next to each other, for example a stencil index finger and a stencil middle finger or alternatively a stencil middle finger and a stencil ring finger or, further alternatively, possibly spaced apart stencil finger elements, for example a stencil index finger and a template ring finger may be provided.

A finger arrangement consisting of just a single template finger element, preferably a template middle finger or alternatively a template index finger, can also be sufficient, especially if only mittens, so-called mittens, can be put on comfortably and quickly, for example as relatively heavy work gloves.

The flat palm-like area of the hand template should be designed to be as wide as possible so that the glove can be spread over its full width and should have at least the width of approximately three (actually or theoretically) adjacent template finger elements. Theoretically this means that this width is also preferred if only a single template finger element is provided, the width of which is then taken at least times three in order to determine the width of the palm-like area. The flat palm-like area can have a width of preferably about 3 cm to 8 cm, depending on the size and type of gloves to be worn.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the dressing aid device is designed as a multifunctional dressing aid device and, in addition to the glove donning aid, a shoe donning aid is provided. Particularly preferred here is an embodiment in which the shoe donning aid has a concave guide groove as a longitudinal extension of the glove donning aid, which is suitable for functioning as a heel guide in the manner of a shoehorn. In the function of the hand donning aid, this is inserted into a glove, for example a finger glove or possibly also a mitten, with the interior of the glove being spread open for comfortable, precise insertion of a human hand. After inserting the hand, the hand template can be withdrawn from the glove. The shoe donning aid attached to the hand template can be used as a handle. Conversely, the shoe donning aid with its concave guide groove can be inserted into a shoe to be put on as a heel guide in the manner of a shoehorn, with the glove donning aid or the flat hand template being able to be used as a handle for comfortable handling.

Particularly preferably, it is provided that the concave guide groove tapers conically towards the rear to the palm-like area, preferably with the interposition of a transition area. Depending on the design, the guide channel width can be approx. 1 cm to 3 cm smaller than the width of the palm of the hand. Alternatively or additionally, it can also be provided that a, preferably sickle-like, opening is formed in the area of the guide trough, preferably in the free end area of the guide trough. The preferred sickle shape ensures that the tightening aid device always settles in the middle. In addition, such an opening can also be used as a bottle opener.

According to a further particularly preferred embodiment, it is provided that in a transition area from the plane of the palm-like area to the concave guide groove, the side areas for the subsequent groove formation in the longitudinal direction bulge straight and continuously. Alternatively or in addition to this, it is particularly preferred if the guide groove is designed to be bent in the longitudinal direction with a bending angle relative to the plane of the palm-like area. The bend angle can be approximately 10° to 45°, particularly preferably approximately 10° to 20°, most preferably approximately 15°. This kinked embodiment between the glove donning aid and the shoe donning aid makes handling both functions easy and convenient. For example, the visibility for inserting the glove donning aid into a glove is improved and is not largely obscured by the handle on the shoe donning aid, since the handle is angled like a pistol grip due to the bend angle and the insertion can be carried out in a targeted manner. On the other hand, due to the use as a shoe donning aid, the required handle on the glove donning aid is shifted away from a calf area due to the bend angle, so that comfortable handling is possible and is not hindered by a calf area.

In addition, two or more openings or rows of openings offset in the transverse direction can be provided in the area of the palm-like area. These openings can serve, for example, as hanging openings and/or as a drilling template. Alternatively, these openings can also be used as a learning aid for tying shoelaces. In particular, more than two openings can be provided for this purpose, which can then be arranged corresponding to the lacing holes on a shoe in two spaced-apart rows of holes or rows of openings with holes spaced apart within each row of holes/row of openings.

The flat template finger elements can be slightly conically curved laterally in their longitudinal course on the front and/or back, that is to say curved upwards towards the finger rest area. This can improve the feel for finger insertion and also stiffen the flat template finger elements in the longitudinal direction. In the case of an existing shoe donning aid, the curvature points on the side on which the concave guide trough is located, preferably in the same direction as the curvature of the concave guide trough, so that a substantially continuous circumferential curvature edge area is formed, which facilitates production significantly simplified.

In a finger arrangement with exactly four template finger elements, the two middle template finger elements are preferably approximately the same length and/or longer than the outer template finger elements that adjoin them laterally. This makes it much easier to insert and spread the glove.

In addition, the template finger elements can each have a rounding in the front free end region, as this is particularly advantageous for easier insertion into a glove is. In this context, according to a particularly preferred specific embodiment, it is advantageous if, based on the top view of the finger arrangement, the two left-hand template finger elements each have a left-side lateral rounding that is larger than their respective right-side lateral rounding and that, based on the top view of the finger arrangement, the two right template finger elements each have a right-side lateral rounding that is larger than their respective left-side lateral rounding. Furthermore, in this context, it is also advantageous for an even more functionally reliable insertion of the auxiliary tightening device if the two larger lateral roundings on the left and the two larger roundings on the right lie approximately and/or at least partially on a common circular arc section.

The tightening auxiliary device can be simple and cost-effective as a full-surface component, preferably as an injection-molded part and/or made of plastic, particularly preferably made of fiber-reinforced plastic, and/or with a relatively small material thickness of approximately 1.5 mm to 4 mm, preferably approximately 2 mm. It can advantageously be achieved, in particular in conjunction with the above stiffening dimensions, that the template finger elements and possibly also the palm-like area can be flexibly moved upwards and downwards with high rigidity in the longitudinal direction, which means that they can be easily and quickly inserted into a glove can promote and at the same time the concave guide groove of the heel guide is stable and non-deformable in the desired manner.

In an alternative embodiment, the tightening auxiliary device can be at least partially made of wire, with at least the outer edges being made of bent wire, optionally with intermediate surface areas made of a wire mesh. This means that in addition to being simple to manufacture, an alternative, attractive design can be achieved. Cardboard can also be used as a material, although the term “cardboard” also includes paper materials, which of course then have to be reinforced accordingly in order to ensure the stability of the tightening aid device.

For a further function of the multifunctional donning aid device as an additional sock or stocking donning aid, it can be equipped with at least one operable holder, preferably with at least one clip and/or preferably at the transition area between the glove donning aid and the shoe donning aid. Both the glove donning aid and, alternatively, the shoe donning aid with the guide groove of the heel guide can be inserted into a stocking, for example, and the upper edge of the stocking can be fastened with the at least one holder. The insertion of the glove donning aid can, due to its wider design compared to the shoe donning aid, possibly provide better guidance, with the stocking or sock being opened even further, which makes entry even easier. After inserting the foot into the stocking held in this way, it can be easily put on using the shoe or glove donning aid that protrudes upwards as a handle, without a person having to bend down far.

In a further alternative embodiment, an auxiliary tightening device can have a joint in the region of a longitudinal center, preferably with a rotation or transverse axis, so that the auxiliary tightening device can be folded, in particular for a small pack size.

In 1 is a top view of a first embodiment of a dressing aid device 1, designed here as an example as a multifunctional donning aid device, which has a glove donning aid 2 as a flat hand template 3, which is a replica of a partial human hand with several, here for example three, slightly spread ones , stretched, flat template finger elements 4 is formed. The template finger elements 4 are here by way of example and preferably not all of the same design and in the example shown here are divided into a template index finger 5, a template middle finger 6 and a template ring finger 7.

The template finger elements 4 are adjoined up to approximately the cutting line DD by a flat and/or essentially plate-shaped palm replica as a palm-like area 8, from which the template finger elements 4 protrude forward and in the example shown here at least one for the most part essentially forms a flat palm plate. As a longitudinal continuation of the dressing aid 2, after a transition area 9, which here lies between the cutting lines DD and CC, for example, there is a shoe dressing aid 10, which is designed with a concave guide groove 11 as a heel guide of a human foot 29 in the manner of a shoehorn 12.

From the longitudinal section 2 It can be seen that in the transition area 9, starting from the plane of the flat palm-like area 8, the side areas 13 to form the concave guide groove 11 bulge continuously and continuously in the longitudinal direction. It can also be seen that the guide groove 11 bends relative to the palm-like area 8 with a bend angle 14 of approximately 15°.

The dressing aid device 1 has a width of approximately 6 cm in the front area of the template finger elements 4 in the embodiment shown as an example and tapers conically straight at the rear in the area of the shoehorn 12 to a smaller width of approximately 4 cm. These dimensions can be reduced in size, especially for children's hands, or adjusted and enlarged for large hands, for example when putting on work gloves. As shown in the top view of the modified embodiment of 7 As can be seen, the flat palm-like area 8 should in any case have at least the width of three template finger elements 4 lying next to one another.

In this first embodiment, two longitudinal elevations 15, 16 are provided in the palm-like area 8 only on the top or front side visible here and here, for example, in the transition area 9, which serve for stabilization and, above all, as finger guides, the longitudinal elevations 15, 16 in the 1 are only provided with a dot pattern for reasons of clarity.

The longitudinal elevations 15, 16 are designed here as approximately straight longitudinal elevations, so that the two adjacent longitudinal elevations 15, 16 form a groove-like finger guide between them in the direction of the template finger elements 4.

How this continues from the 1 As can be clearly seen, the spaced-apart longitudinal elevations 15, 16, which here run in a straight line, extend over the palm-like area 8 in the area or at the level of the gap formed between the template finger elements 4.

In addition, the flat template finger elements 4 are slightly conically curved in their longitudinal course, with the curvature 17 pointing upwards in the same direction as the curvature of the guide channel 11, as can be seen from section E-E.

The above stabilizing measures cause the guide groove 11 as a shoehorn 12 and also the palm-like area 8 to be relatively stiff or dimensionally stable, while the template finger elements 4 are somewhat flexible with their front areas for easier insertion into a glove, in particular a finger glove and are movable, which is in 2 is indicated by the double arrow 18. This function can be achieved in particular in that the tightening auxiliary device 1 in the exemplary embodiment shown is made as a flat plastic injection-molded part, in particular made of a fiber-reinforced plastic with a material thickness of approximately 1.5 mm.

In order to further facilitate the insertion of the template finger elements 4 into a glove, the template index finger 5 and the template ring finger 7 are provided with roundings 19, 20 on their free ends or outer sides.

In 7 is one opposite the 1 Modified tightening aid device 1 shown in a top view with only one template middle finger 6, while the template index finger 5 and the template ring finger 7 are only optionally shown in dashed lines. A donning glove aid 2 with only one template finger element 4 as a template middle finger 6 can already be of good use. for example with mittens or mittens.

The donning auxiliary device 1 is here already inserted into a finger glove 21 shown schematically in dashed lines, with the glove thumb 22 and the glove little finger 23 protruding through the donning auxiliary device 1 without any stiffening, but experience has shown that it is easily achieved in a targeted manner when a human hand is inserted become.

In addition, in the embodiment according to 7 In the area of the palm-like area 8 to the transition area 9 two transversely offset openings 24 are attached. The openings can be used as hanging openings for hanging the auxiliary tightening device 1 on wall hooks or frame hooks or, if necessary, as drilling templates for a block part 25 as a mounting block as in the 12 until 15 shown. Alternatively, these openings 24 can also be used as a learning aid for tying shoelaces. Like in the 7 Shown in dashed lines, more than two openings 24 can be provided for this purpose, which can then be arranged in two rows of holes spaced apart from one another in accordance with the lacing holes on a shoe, with holes spaced apart within each row of holes.

In 8th A dressing aid device 1 is shown in a side view, which is inserted into the back of a shoe 27, shown schematically in dashed lines, with the shoe dressing aid 10, that is to say with the shoehorn 12, with one hand 26. In addition, a lower region of a human leg 28 is shown with a foot 29, the heel 30 of which is already inserted into the shoe 27 via the shoehorn 12 as a heel guide.

Out of 8th It is clearly visible that the bend angle 14 between the shoe donning aid 10 and the glove donning aid 2 leaves a free space 31 between a calf area 32 of the glove donning aid as a handle when the shoe donning aid 10 is inserted into the shoe 27, which provides a comfortable functional Handling of the shoe putting aid 10 is guaranteed.

As schematically in 8th is shown, the dressing aid 1, for example specifically the glove donning aid 2 and/or the shoe donning aid 10, can be further upgraded to an additional sock or stocking donning aid 33, for example in the transition area 9 on the underside of the Guide channel 11 one or more clips 34 are arranged, with which an upper sock or stocking edge can be connected. A stocking or sock connected in this way can be easily guided down to a foot by means of the extension through the glove donning aid 2 and, after a foot has been inserted, pulled back up again.

In 9 a further exemplary embodiment of the auxiliary tightening device 1 is shown with a joint 38 arranged in the area of the longitudinal center, whereby the auxiliary tightening device 1 divided there can be folded (double arrow 39), optionally with a lock to realize the bend angle 14.

In 10 a further embodiment of a tightening auxiliary device 1 is shown by way of example, which is made from a wire 40, in that the outer edges are made from bent wire and the surface areas in between are possibly made from a wire mesh 41.

In the 11 until 14 A particularly preferred second embodiment of the solution according to the invention is now shown.

The donning aid device 1 of this second embodiment also has a glove donning aid 2, which is suitable for being inserted into a glove 21, not shown here, as a hand and finger guide.

The glove donning aid 2 is formed here by a hand template 3, which has a palm-like area 8, preferably as an at least partial palm replica of a human hand, from which a finger arrangement with four template finger elements 4, described in more detail below, protrudes stretched out.

In the particularly preferred embodiment shown here for the reversible use of the glove donning aid 2, the palm-like area 8 has several guide elements on both the front and the back, by means of which the fingers of a human hand can be guided in the direction of the template finger elements 4 are.

Like this in particular from the synopsis of the 11 and 14 , which makes a cut along the line CC of the 11 shows, can be seen, specifically on the back and on the front of the palm-like area 8, several longitudinal elevations 46, which extend in the direction of the template finger elements 4, are spaced apart from one another and run approximately in a straight line, are arranged as guide elements, each with one between them form groove-like finger guides in the direction of the respectively assigned template finger elements 4.

In the second embodiment shown here, the finger arrangement has exactly four template finger elements 4, each spaced apart with a gap in between and stretched, preferably flat and/or thin-walled, here for example a template index finger, a template middle finger, a template -Ring finger and a stencil little finger.

The palm-like area 8 has a width which corresponds to at least the width of three or four actually or theoretically adjacent template finger elements 4, it being preferably provided that the palm-like area 8 has a width of 3 cm to 8 cm.

Here too, the donning aid device 1 is again purely optional and, for example, additionally provided with a shoe donning aid 10, which has a concave guide groove 11 as a longitudinal continuation of the glove donning aid 2, which is suitable for serving as a heel guide in the manner of a shoehorn 12 act.

The palm-like area 8 is adjoined by the concave guide groove 11, which tapers conically towards the rear, with the interposition of a transition area 9. In the exemplary embodiment shown here, a sickle-like opening 47 is formed in the free end region of the guide channel 11.

In the transition area 9 from the plane of the palm-like area 8 to the concave guide groove 11, the side areas 13 for groove formation are straight and continuously increasingly arched in the longitudinal direction.

The guide channel 11 preferably bends with a bend angle 14, preferably with a bend angle of approximately 10° to 45°, particularly preferably of approximately 10° to 20°, most preferably of approximately 15°, relative to the plane of the palm-like area 8 in Longitudinal direction.

In the in the 11 In the second embodiment shown, the template finger elements 4 are also curved slightly conically upwards towards the finger rest area (curvature 48) both on the front and on the back in their longitudinal course 13 can be seen, which is a cut along the line BB of the 11 shows. As the inventor's investigations have shown, this slight curvature is completely sufficient and satisfactory for functionally reliable finger guidance, especially in conjunction with the longitudinal elevations 46.

Furthermore, with such a finger arrangement with exactly four template finger elements 4, the two middle template finger elements can be approximately the same length and can also be longer than the outer template finger elements 4 that adjoin them laterally. This shows 11 very good.

The 11 further shows that, based on the top view of the finger arrangement, the two left ones (in the image plane of the 11 lower) template finger elements 4 each have a left-side lateral rounding 49a, which is larger than their respective right-side lateral rounding 49b and that, based on the top view of the finger arrangement, the two right ones (in the image plane of the 11 upper) template finger elements 4 each have a right-side lateral rounding 50a, which is larger than their respective left-side lateral rounding 50b, it being also provided here that the two left-side larger lateral roundings 49a and the two right-side larger roundings 50a approximately and / or at least partially lie on a common circular arc section.
