Abstract

A method of making a massaging glove, which has spikes and/or bristles on one or both sides, is as followS: a glove with intergrally formed spikes on one side and a flat surface on the other side is made by injection-moulding from thermoplastics; a thermoplastic plate with projecting ferrules for bristle bundles is separately injection-moulded; then bristle bundles are forced into the ferrules; finally, this bristle-plate is sealed by sealed by welding to the glove. Pref., a thumb-hole with stiffening edge-beading is simultaneously integrally moulded on one or both edges, and vent-holes are formed in the edges.

The invention relates to a method of manufacture a massage glove, in which a glove body is one or more on its outer surfaces is occupied on both sides with nipples or bristles, the nipple being integral with the corresponding outer surface and the bristles are inserted in bundles into sleeve-shaped attachments of a brush plate protruding from the outer surface, as well as on designs of the Massage glove made according to this process «.

In massage gloves, the nipples are generally used for muscle massage, while the bristles are used for skin massage and can therefore be used to promote blood circulation.

In a known manufacturing method for massage gloves, a glove part and a brush plate are manufactured in the Gumraiprefl method by vulcanization. Already this first stage of the procedure is particularly very complicated because it is necessary for this purpose to insert in the at etva 150 ⁰ C ervärmte steel form a rubber mixture and pre-vulcanization in a closed mold, which takes each eight to ten minutes. After the two parts have been created, the bristles are attached to the bristle plate by means of manual retraction, which is known to be very costly. Finally, to connect the bristle plate to the glove part, it is necessary to clean the fitted bristle plate on its underside, to roughen it, to coat the connection surfaces with rubber solution and then to glue them together under pressure.

Such a known method is therefore extremely uneconomical and therefore does not involve any production large numbers.

The invention is based on the object of an economical To create a process of the type mentioned, which above all can also be used in large-scale series production and with which also a susceptibility to wear) more hygienic and adaptable massage glove can be created,

which should also be designed in such a way that it is hand-friendly in its use Own appearance.

This object is achieved according to the invention in that a glove body with simultaneous shaping of the Nipples on one outer surface and one on the inside flat formation of the other outer surface made of thermoplastic material Injection molded vird that separated from the glove body provided with the sleeve-like extensions Brush plate also injection molded from thermoplastic material vird that a bundle of bristles is punched into each of the sleeve-like extensions and that finally the equipped brush plate is welded onto the flat outer surface of the glove body.

With this method according to the invention can be a Massage glove in a rational and economical way manufacture in large numbers. The thermoplastic material, for example soft PVC, is plasticized and injected under high pressure into a water-cooled closed mold, in which it takes a few seconds cools before the finished part can be removed from the mold.

By punching the bundle of bristles into the sleeve-like approaches, the manual pull-in, which is the case with the known Process the production costs of massage glove considerably adversely affected. Furthermore, the equipped brush plate is welded onto the flat outer surface of the shoe body, velches preferably through High frequency welding can take place at the acquaintance Above all, time-consuming gluing process is saved.

The glove body according to the invention The massage glove produced by the method can also be guided by the hand-held guide at its insertion opening opposite side section be designed to be semicircular rounded »wherein the brush plate as well as the knob-side outer surface one of the Huieren contour of the glove body corresponding shape can own.

The following is the invention with reference to the drawings for example explained in more detail} it tend to:

According to the figures, a mastage glove consists of one Glove body 1 having an insertion opening 2 for the hand «one of an average palm Has a corresponding length and width and on the rare section opposite the bin guide opening 2 S is rounded semicircular. Zn the

Stroke of the thumb is la side part 4 of the glove body 1 incorporated a thumb hole 5 »which is provided with vulst-shaped edge reinforcement 6 * So that the Glove body 1 can also be attached to the palm of the hand when turned, can be attached to the side part 4 opposite, Side part, not shown, also has a thumb hole 5 with a corresponding sand reinforcement be formed · In the area of the rare section 3-are Ventilation openings 7 on the side of the glove body are left open, also like the edge section of the inlet opening 2, can be provided with vulcanized edge reinforcements θ

According to FIG. 2, the glove body 1 is provided with a brush plate 9 on its one outer surface, while a plurality of nipples 11 are formed from the same material on its opposite outer surface 10 *. These nipples 11 can be of different lengths in rows and can be svar such that their height dimensions decrease towards the inner surface section 12. This means that during a massage all nipples can rest over the entire surface of the body, which is not the case with nipples of the same height, since experience has shown that the outer rows of nipples are less stressed.

From the illustration according to FIG. 3 it can be seen that the bristle bundles 15 in the hat-like form are in Velcher form Approaches 14 are held. In an initially U-shaped The bent root wire 17 becomes a bundle of bristles 15 double length and folded in half · Then the actual punching process takes place by after an inward displacement of the two legs of the root wire 17, so that the end portions of these legs crisscross each other, the thus prepared bristle enbündel in the bore of the sleeve-like approach is introduced and punched there. The entire punching process can run fully automatically Applying additional holding force to the bristles introduced into the sleeve-like extensions 14 can do that The respective bundle of boron clay is melted or melted into the brush plate at its root area during the punching process glued in verden. When the sleeve-like extensions have a height that is twice the thickness of the bristle bundle adequate bristle guidance is guaranteed.

In Fig. 4, a hand shaker 18 is shown, velcher has essentially cuboid dimensions and on Both end faces are provided with insertion openings 2 and 19 is. This glove trapper 1 <3 also has thumb holes 5 on »at which corresponding vulst-shaped Edge reinforcements are attached. The brush plate 20 as well as the nipple-side outer surface (not shown) have rectangular dimensions in this embodiment. In addition, the height corresponds to that on the Brush plate 9 or 20 provided sleeve-like type., sets 14 about twice the thickness of a bundle of bristles 1? · The advantage of this massage glove is below

another is that he is of the appropriate length with both hands, so that an increased massage pressure can be exercised, is usable »

For the production of the massage glove in the injection molding process can be used for shaping the glove body 1 or, 1C and the brush plate 4 polyvinyl chloride Find use »which is processed as granules in the present case, however, it would also be possible the PVC raw material in powder form, as a paste or Agglomerate to be used. The bristles used can be used as fully synthetic fibers, such as polyamides, poly acrylonitrile, polyester, polyolefin, polypropylene, use. It has been found that fibers made of polypropylene have a satisfactory restoring force have, are temperature-resistant and also show particularly skin-friendly properties · From these Polypropylene fibers are preferred for the bristle bundles 15 applied.
