Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide golf gloves composed of a specific warp knitted fabric impregnated with resin, enabling the outer appearance of suede to show excellent grade and excellent in the touch, durability, a feeling in wearing the gloves and a fit feeling to fingers. SOLUTION: The golf gloves are composed of a resin-impregnated warp knitted fabric having <=30% longitudinal elongation at break and 2-6 balanced ratio of transverse elongation at break to longitudinal one. Warps are placed in the longitudinal direction of the glove, and part or the whole of the warp knitted fabric is composed of multifilament yarns each made of only flat filaments having >=2 oblateness. The multifilament yarn is composed of polyamide filaments having a monofilament fineness of 0.01-0.2 deniers and polyester filaments having a monofilament fineness of 0.02-0.5 deniers both produced by delaminating/splitting a delamination-type hollow splittable yarn where the blend ratio of a polyamide constituent 2 to a polyester constituent 1 is (20-40 wt.%):(80-60 wt.%).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a golf glove, and more particularly to a golf glove which has excellent durability and fits well to human hands.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, golf gloves made of natural kangaroo skin, sheep skin, cow skin, and artificial suede fabric impregnated with urethane based on a nonwoven fabric have been used in recent years.

[0003] However, golf gloves made of natural leather, after being wetted by rain and dried, have a remarkably reduced feel to the skin. Among them, golf gloves made of kangaroo leather, which is considered to be the softest, have poor durability. On the other hand, golf gloves made of artificial suede and synthetic leather impregnated with urethane based on a non-woven fabric have the same texture even when wet with rain, as is called the all-weather type. But few are satisfied.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a golf glove having a good touch, excellent durability, and a good feeling of wearing and fitting by human hands.

[0005]

That is, the present invention comprises a resin-impregnated warp knitted fabric having a warp elongation of 30% or less and a ratio of warp elongation / warp elongation of 2-6. It is a golf glove characterized by the above-mentioned. More specifically, the warp knitted fabric is partially or entirely composed of a multifilament yarn consisting of only flat cross-section filaments having a flatness of 2 or more, and the golf glove and the warp of the above-described glove are formed of a multi-filament yarn. The golf glove described above, wherein the multi-filament yarn comprises polyamide filaments and polyester filaments, and the single yarn 0.0
The golf glove described above, comprising a polyamide filament of 1 to 0.2 d / f and a polyester filament of 0.02 to 0.5 d / f of a single yarn.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

It is important that the warp knitted fabric according to the golf glove of the present invention has a warp elongation of 30% or less and a ratio of elongation in the weft direction / elongation in the warp direction of 2-6. . By using such a requirement, when using the golf club, it does not extend in the length direction of the finger, but extends in the direction around the finger, so that it has an excellent feeling of fitting to human fingers and a very good wearing feeling. Become. Accordingly, if the elongation in the warp direction exceeds 30%, the grip of the glove shaft in a state where the finger is bent is lacking. Preferably 1
0 to 20%. If the ratio of the elongation in the weft direction / the elongation in the meridian direction is less than 2, a feeling of pressure is exerted around the finger, and conversely 6
If it exceeds, the fit around the fingers is lost and the feeling of wearing is reduced. Preferably it is 3-5. The warp direction in the present invention refers to the warp direction of the warp knitted fabric, and the weft direction refers to the weft direction of the warp knitted fabric.

Next, it is important that the warp knitted fabric according to the present invention is partially or entirely composed of a multifilament yarn composed of only flat cross-section filaments having a flatness of 2 or more. This is because the bending stiffness of the fabric is weak and the fabric is soft, so that gloves having an excellent sense of fitting to human hands and an extremely excellent wearing feeling can be obtained. When the oblateness is less than 2, the bending rigidity is increased and the fit is reduced. Preferably it is 3-6. What is important here is that the multifilament yarn is constituted by a multifilament yarn consisting of only flat-section filaments. That is, when a multifilament yarn containing a filament yarn having an aspect ratio of less than 2 is used even in part, the bending rigidity of the fabric increases, the fit during play decreases, and the intended purpose of the present invention is reduced. It is difficult to achieve.

[0008] The flat cross-section filament is preferably composed of a polyamide filament and a polyester filament. This is to make a golf glove having high fabric strength and excellent durability. The mixing ratio of the polyamide filament and the polyester filament is preferably 20 to 40% by weight / 80 to 60% by weight. Furthermore, the single filament denier of the polyamide filament is 0.01
The polyester filament preferably has a single yarn denier of 0.02 to 0.5 d / f. This is because the bending rigidity of the fabric is weak and a soft touch can be obtained.

Next, a production example of the golf glove according to the present invention will be described. First, a release-type hollow split yarn having a mixing ratio of a polyamide component and a polyester component of 20 to 40% by weight: 80 to 60% by weight is arranged on all or any one of the warp knitting machines having two or more reeds. And knit the warp knitted fabric. As the knitting structure, any of known structures can be adopted, but a tricot knitted fabric is preferable. 50-100 hollow split fibers
Denier is preferable, and the number of filaments is 18 to 36.
Is preferred. Other reeds include polyester, polyamide,
Etc. can be provided. The obtained warp knitted fabric is subjected to brushing, relaxing scouring, dyeing, drying and finishing setting, etc., to be finished. At that time, the hollow split yarn is separated and split into various components by raising and dyeing, and the polyamide component is a fiber of 0.01 to 0.2 d / f, and the polyester component is a fiber of 0.02 to 0.5 d / f. And each of the fibers has a wedge-shaped cross section and is an extremely fine flat yarn having a flatness of 2 or more.

[0010] Further, the obtained warp-knitted fabric is impregnated with a resin such as a urethane resin. At this time, it is important to increase the width in the weft direction while applying tension in the warp direction in the subsequent hot water washing step. Specifically, 5 in the warp direction
Process by adding a draft of ２５25%, preferably 10-15%. By performing impregnation under such conditions, a warp knitted fabric subjected to urethane impregnation, in which the warp elongation is 30% or less and the ratio of weft elongation / warp elongation is balanced at 2 to 6. This is because it becomes possible to obtain Thereafter, the above-described warp knitted fabric is cut so that the shape of a human finger is in the warp direction of the knitted fabric and sewn to manufacture a golf glove. Therefore, in the obtained glove, the warp is arranged in the warp direction of the glove. This is because when the knitted fabric is cut in the lateral direction, the fit of the fingers is reduced.
