FR2656597A1 - "Carrier" gloves for handling lifting gear (tackle, rigging) or buckets and other objects of certain weights - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a device forming a perforated glove for allowing the thumb and the fingers to pass through, and it is composed of three straps, one (2) being completely closed and passing around the hand between the thumb and the fingers, and another strap (3) being open and fastening around the wrist by means of a "Velcro" or clip system - the two straps described above are connected by a wider strap (4) covering over the palm and folded over its entire length, the upper part serving as a keeper (loop) for the strap (3). A plate (5) is fastened on the strap (4) by means of four rivets (6) and on said plate is fastened, via its axis, by means of two rivets (7), a blade (8) of metal or another very strong composition, said blade being curved over in order to form a hook, covered with a sheath of flexible plastic or another material in order to prevent wear particularly from ropes. The invention applies to the field of handling lifting gear (the sport of sailing) and to the carrying of buckets and other objects of certain weights.

Description

DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a device forming an openwork glove equipped with a curved blade forming a hook for handling without fatigue and injury in particular of tackle or carrying buckets or other objects of certain weights.

Until now, users of sailboats to handle all the ropes, passing through pulleys which are used to set up, hold and maneuver the sails of a boat, had the disadvantage of being injured. the hands, even when using gloves, which are otherwise unsuitable for such maneuvers. These maneuvers were the long source of injury and insecurity for those practicing the approved, as well as the carrying of buckets or other objects.

The present invention aims to eliminate the above drawbacks, even known gloves, by proposing gloves of a design allowing in particular approved users, faster, safer and longer lasting handling of ropes. without injuring your hands, ensuring better safety.

For this, the device forming the glove (fig. 1) object of the invention is characterized in that the glove comprises five adjacent parts which come to be juxtaposed and are assembled by means of rivets (6 and 7 of fig. 1 ). The glove is therefore composed of an upper part (3 in fig. 1) of an open strap, which closes and attaches around the wrist by a velcro system or staples, which is extended on the palm of the hand by a strap (4 of figure 1) which is wider and which is doubled over its entire length, and whose upper part forms a loop for the part (3 of fig. 1) and which is riveted (6 of the fig. 1) at the upper and lower part, and which is intended to receive by juxtaposition a plate (5 of fig. 1) and riveted by four rivets (6 of fig. 1) on which is fixed by juxtaposition, in its axis, by two rivets (7 in fig. 1) a blade (8 in fig. 1) of metal or other very resistant composition and which is curved forming a hook covered with a sheath of flexible plastic or other materials for prevent wear, especially of ropes Another strap (2 of fig. 1) is closed passing between the thumb and the fingers to ensure the maintenance and the complete safety of the hand, for all uses.

The invention will be better understood, and other characteristic aims, details and advantages thereof will appear more clearly during the explanatory description which follows, made with reference to the appended schematic drawings given by way of example illustrating a mode of realization of the invention and in which
FIG. 1 represents a front view of the device forming the glove of the invention.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the device forming the glove of the invention with the same reference numbers as in FIG. 1.

FIG. 3 is a back view of the device forming the glove of the invention, with the same reference numbers as in FIG. 1.

Referring to the figures, the device forming a glove is of the type comprising an upper part (3 of fig. 1) sliding in the upper part (3 of fig. 1) sliding in the part (4 of fig. 1 ) forming a loop, as well as the lower part (2 of fig. 1) which is designed to pass and hold the fingers of the hand.

We understand that the part (3 in fig.1) closes around the wrist by a velcro system or staples. The part (4 of fig. 1) protecting the palm of the hand is doubled so as to form in the upper part a loop in which slides the part (3 of fig. 1) and which is fixed by rivets (6 and 7 of Fig. 1) ensuring solidity in all tests.

On this part (4 of fig. 1) is fixed by juxtaposition a plate (of fig. 1) by four rivets (6 of fig. 1) on this plate is fixed by juxtaposition a blade (8 of fig. 1) by means of two rivets (7 in fig. 1). This blade is curved to form a hook, covered with a flexible plastic sheath or other materials to prevent wear, especially of ropes - used for handling tackles or carrying buckets or other objects, preventing fatigue and hand injuries, thus ensuring all good dress and safety.

According to the invention, the glove for handling without fatigue or injury, either for apparatus or carrying buckets can be made of different materials and of different aesthetic forms, even of different sizes, according to the adaptation needs and jobs requiring rigorous handling on the one hand, and on the other hand hand protection, for example during manual winch exercises or carrying loads of different heavy objects on which ropes, cables or wires will have been moored, thus ensuring a grip gloves which are fitted with hooks and which are used to lift and move these loads.

Claims (3)

 ~ - Device forming an openwork glove to leave the thumb and fingers, composed of three straps one completely closed passing around the hand between the thumb and the fingers, fixed by the lower rivets another open strap coming to be fixed around the wrist by a closure system or iron buckle the two straps described above are connected by a wider strap and lined over any length and covering the palm, the upper part forms a loop for the strap it is fixed by the lower rivets on the latter is fixed a plate by means of four rivets and on the latter is fixed by means of two rivets in its axis a metal blade or other very resistant composition, the end of which is curved to form a hook, covered with a flexible plastic sheath or other preventing wear on the ropes. 2 - Device according to claim I characterized in that the perforated glove adapts quickly thanks to a strap equipped with closure or iron loop around the wrist, after having slid the palm of the hand in the closed strap. 3- Device according to claims 1 and 2 characterized in that the openwork glove is put by juxtaposition on the palm, a plate fixed by four rivets on which is fixed in its axis a metal blade or other composition and which is curved, forming a hook covered with a flexible plastic sheath or other material to prevent wear, especially of ropes.
