Definitions
- This invention relates to a hand protection system for a glove, particularly but not exclusively for use in sports such as motorcycling.
- protective gloves for use in motorcycling incorporate protective pads over the region of the main knuckles (where the metacarpal bones connect to the proximal phalanges). These are often rigid and uncomfortable and only provide limited protection at the front of the knuckle, a region particularly prone to impact. Some currently available protective gloves also include protective pads positioned over the proximal and intermediate phalanges bones of at least some of the individual fingers, but provided no protection at the joint between these bones, again a region particularly prone to impact and injury.
- US 2006/048259 discloses a finger protector for a sports glove, in particular a goalkeeper glove, comprising a plate that is connected in one piece with strips which overlie respective fingers of one hand.
- Each strip consists of a chain of members and an underlying band.
- the chain of members are connected in one piece with each other but can be moved relative to each other (towards and away) by virtue of through holes extending transverse to the chain direction.
- the underlying band has nipples which are pushed into the through holes.
- Such a finger protector is integrated into that part of a glove associated with the back portion of the user's hand, embedded in a layer of soft foam plastic or foamed textile composite, possibly detachably and interchangeably.
- the aforesaid chain of members has flexibility but is attached at multiple points to the nipples of the underlying band and the whole protector is mounted into the fabric of the glove with no provision for displacement relative to the glove.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an improved hand protection system which allows for protection of the entire fingers, including joints, which are the most vulnerable parts, without compromising the ability of the user to bend and stretch the fingers, thus enabling gripping in the normal manner, and without compromising comfort for the user.
- a hand protection system for mounting onto a glove is provided as specified in claim 1.
- a glove on to which such a hand protection system is mounted is provided, as specified in claim 11.
- a first version is configured to provide only edge engagement means for slidingly retaining side edges of the respective strip.
- Such a version is open across the upper surface of the strip.
- Such a version may comprise a unitary structure having opposing confronting edge engagement means, or may comprise two separate halves which face each other and provide the respective edge engagement means.
- a second version is configured to provide a tunnel through which or into which the respective strip extends. Such a version extends completely across the upper surface of the strip.
- the tunnel provided may be open at each end, in which case the strip may extend right through.
- the tunnel may be closed at one end so as to form, effectively, a socket for receiving the second end of the respective strip, i.e. into which the second end of the strip will project in use.
- the aforesaid flexible strips and guide structures may be provided on the glove as the totality of the hand protection system.
- an additional protective plate or pad which may be of entirely conventional form, may be provided in addition to the aforesaid strips and guide structures, said plate being mounted over the knuckle and/or metacarpal region of the hand.
- the first end portions of the strips may be secured to the fingers either adjacent tips of the fingers with the displaceable remaining portions extending towards the knuckles or adjacent to the knuckles with the displaceable remaining portions extending towards the fingertips, in each case passing across or through or into respective guide structures.
- a plate mounted or mountable onto the glove over the knuckle and/or metacarpal region of the hand is additionally provided, said plate being configured to provide plural adjacent guide portions for the second ends of the respective strips.
- the first end portions of the strips are secured to the fingers, distally of the plate, adjacent the tips of the fingers, with the displaceable remaining portions of the strips extending towards and into the aforesaid guide portions of the plate.
- these guide portions also may provide only edge engagement means for slidingly retaining side edges of the respective strips or alternatively may be configured to provide tunnels into which the respective second ends of the strips project.
- first end portions of the respective strips are permanently connected to a plate, which plate is fixedly mounted or mountable onto the glove over the knuckle and/or metacarpal region.
- the remaining portions of the strips then extend away from the plate to overlie the fingers and be guided by respective guide structures mounted on those fingers.
- each strip is formed of a plurality of alternate thicker and thinner regions as provided, for example, by a series of transverse slits along the longitudinal axis of each strip, to enhance the flexibility of the strip.
- each strip is generally triangular in cross-section with an upstanding apex. This shape provides for strength, flexibility and best impact protection for the underlying delicate finger bones.
- a preferred practical embodiment of the system of the invention comprises a plurality of separately fabricated components which are assembled together for fitting onto the back portion of a glove 10 ( figure 5 ).
- These components comprise a plate assembly, denoted generally by reference numeral 20, a plurality of flexible strips, also referred to as spines, 30, one for each finger, and a corresponding plurality of guide structures 40, again one for each finger.
- the housing assembly 20 is formed of three components, namely a base plate 22, which in use is secured to the fabric of the glove 10, an upper plate 24 which fits above the base plate 22 to provide tunnels for reception in slidable manner of proximal end regions of some of the spines 30, and an additional top plate 28 which overlies part of the upper plate 24 to provide additional protection. All these parts are typically formed of suitable thermoplastic material, such as low-density polyurethane or polypropylene, although other materials are possible. Also, a soft silicone layer may the provided at the underside of the base plate 22 to offer increased protection to the metacarpal region of the wearer's hand.
- Each spine 30 is elongate and accordingly has a longitudinal axis between first and second opposing ends.
- a portion 32 at the first end provides the sole means of fixing the respective spine 30 to the glove 10, while the remainder of the spine is not fixedly attached but is held in a position to overlie the respective finger of the glove 10.
- the first end portion 32 of each spine 30 is formed as an enlarged region with a peripheral curving flange 34 adapted for securing to the fabric of the glove 10, for example by adhesive or stitching, and possibly with an intervening layer of fabric.
- the respective enlarged spine end region 32 is connected to its finger at a location a short spacing from the fingertip.
- the spines 30 for overlying the first (index), second, third and fourth fingers have their end regions 32 attached at a position overlying the intermediate phalanges.
- the three spines 30 overlying the first second and third fingers are of a suitable length to extend from aforesaid connection to the glove to sliding engagement below the upper plate 24, which is mounted over the metacarpal region.
- Each spine 30 is generally triangular in cross-section, with an upstanding apex, and is provided with a plurality of transverse slits 38 to enable a significant degree of flexing whenever the wearer of the glove curls that finger, in gripping or other movements. Small through bores 39 are provided centrally of each transverse slit 38 to enhance the flexibility of each spine 30.
- the length and cross-sectional configuration of the spine 30, along with choice of material, serves to protect the finger throughout its length, including the vulnerable regions at or adjacent the joints, against impact injuries.
- the plate assembly 20 is mounted onto the back of the glove 10 overlying the metacarpal region of the wearer's hand, just behind the main knuckles. It serves to locate and guide proximal ends of the spines 30 which overlie the first, second and third fingers.
- the upper plate 24 includes three laterally spaced guide portions 26 of convexly curving cross-section, which thereby provide tunnels, as best seen in figures 2 and 5 , for reception of the free (unfixed) ends of these spines 30.
- the top plate 28 is secured to the upper plate 24 by its side edges clipping below appropriately spaced latching members 21 projecting upwards from the two outermost tunnel forming regions 26.
- the guide structures 40 of which there are five, one for each finger, and one for the thumb of the glove wearer, each comprise a curving base plate 42 and an upstanding convex portion 44 defining a tunnel above the base plate.
- the base plate 42 of each said member 40 is mounted onto the back of the glove 10 above the proximal phalange bone of each finger.
- the convex portions 44 provide respective tunnels through which the respective spines 30 extend, in an freely slidable manner, part way between their distal end attachment at portion 32 and their reception in the respective housing tunnels 26, as best shown in figures 2 and 5 .
- the guide structures 40 for the thumb and the little finger are slightly different as the free ends of their respective spines 30 do not locate into guide means of the plate assembly 20.
- the guide structure 40 for the thumb has a closed end 46 to its tunnel forming convex portion 44, thus providing, in effect, a socket which slidingly receives the free end portion of a similar spine 130 mounted over the thumb.
- the guide structure 44 for the fourth (little) finger is also modified by having an extension 48 to its base plate 42 for more secure attachment purposes and to offer a greater abrasion resistance at the side of the little finger.
- Figure 6 shows an alternative version of the system where open guide structures 140 are provided in place of the above-described closed guide structures 40.
- These open guide structures 140 differ only in that they do not provide a tunnel forming convex portion for the spines 30 to slide through, but instead provide two edge engagement lugs143,145 upstanding from a base plate 142.
- These lugs 143,145 face each other and slidingly retain side edges of the respective spine 30.
- the system is the same as in figure 1 , and the same reference numerals have been used to denote corresponding parts.
- FIGS 7 and 8 show two further embodiments from which the plate assembly 20 is absent, as such a plate assembly is not always necessary.
- spines 50 are shown provided over the first second and third fingers of a glove 51. These spines 50 are essentially the same as the spines 30 in the previous embodiment, and are secured at first end portions 52 in the vicinity of the fingertips, with the remaining portion of each spine 50 being slidably displaceable along the longitudinal axis of the spine 50 by locating through a respective guide structure 54, which is mounted onto the finger at a spacing from the secured first end portion 52.
- the guide structures 54 are similar to the previously described guide structures 40 in the preceding embodiment and include a base plate attached to the glove fabric and a convex portion providing a tunnel into and through which a free end region of the spine 50 projects.
- spines 60 are shown provided over the first second and third fingers of a glove 61. These spines 60 are again essentially the same in structure as the spines 30 in the previous embodiment. However, in this case they are secured at first end portions 62 in the vicinity of the knuckles, with the remaining unconnected and displaceable portion of each spine 60 extending towards the fingertips and being slidably displaceable along the longitudinal axis of the spine 60 by locating through two spaced apart respective guide structures 64.
- the guide structures 64 are again similar to the previously described guide structures 40 in the preceding embodiment and include a base plate attached to the glove fabric and a convex portion providing tunnels through which the unconnected, displaceable region of the spines 60 extend.
- FIG. 9 shows an alternative embodiment of the hand protection system of the invention.
- the tunnel housing assembly designated generally by reference numeral 120, is essentially the same as in preceding embodiment.
- the flexible spines for overlying the respective fingers are somewhat different to the preceding embodiment, as those for the first, second and third fingers are provided in two parts 132, 134.
- the distal parts 132 are each provided with a respective terminal enlargement 133 for securing onto the glove region overlying the intermediate phalanges, but otherwise are much shorter than in previous embodiment.
- the proximal parts 134 have enlarged end regions 136 which, in addition to being for securing onto the glove region overlying the proximal phalanges, provide tunnels, in the manner of sockets, for receiving respective ends of the distal parts 132 in slidable manner. Accordingly, the enlarged end regions 136 take the place of the separate, tunnel forming attachment members 40 in the preceding embodiment.
- a separate tunnel forming attachment member 140 is provided for the slidable reception of the free end of the spine 131 overlying the little finger.
- a spine 138 for overlying the thumb is simply designed to overlie the joint and has respective enlarged ends 139 for securing to the glove at each side of the joint.
