Description

  The present invention relates to a sports glove used at the time of sports performed outdoors such as golf, baseball and tennis, and more particularly to a sports glove suitable for rainy weather.

  As this type of sports gloves, one shown in FIG. 4 is known. The sports glove shown in FIG. 4 is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-276293.

  By the way, this type of sports glove (for example, golf glove) emphasizes the fit when worn on the hand, so it is generally sized to fit the hand with non-stretchable fabric such as natural leather or synthetic leather. Is formed. Therefore, also in the known sports glove shown in FIG. 4, in order to make it easier to insert a hand into the glove, the laterally-opening portion 3 that is cut toward the fingertip side is formed in the hand insertion portion 2. The laterally open portion 3 can be pulled by a fastening fastener 5 (a pair of hook-and-loop fasteners 5a and 5b). Even if the laterally opening portion 3 is pulled by the fastening fastener 5, the opening width is reduced, but the gap remains.

  In the sports glove shown in FIG. 4, a large number of small holes 19 for ventilation are formed in the upper portions of the finger bags 13, 13,.

JP 2001-276293 A

  By the way, although sports performed outdoors such as golf competitions are also performed in rainy weather, when the above-described sports gloves of FIG. 4 are worn and used in rainy weather, the lateral opening 3 is pulled by the fastening fastener 5. However, since the side opening 3 remains open, rainwater enters the gloves from the side opening 3. Further, in the glove wearing state, the hand insertion part 2 is simply drawn by the fastening fastener 5, so that water droplets may enter the glove from the hand insertion part 2 through the wrist skin. Further, in the glove of FIG. 4, rainwater enters the glove from the small holes 19, 19... For ventilation in the back of the finger bag 13. In addition, fabrics that use natural leather or synthetic leather as a glove fabric have the property of not allowing water to pass through the fabric, but the fabric itself absorbs water if it is in contact with rainwater for a long time. .

  As described above, in conventional sports gloves (for example, FIG. 4), when used in rainy weather, the inside of the glove gets wet in a relatively short period of time, causing discomfort and poor grip, which adversely affects play. There was a problem of affecting. Therefore, for example, when it is raining in a golf competition, it is the current situation that a player wears a number of gloves and replaces them with new ones every time they get wet.

  In addition, it is well known, for example, in JP-A-4-339900, JP-A-2004-203946, and the like, that fabrics such as natural leather and synthetic leather are waterproofed with a water repellent. And, it is conceivable to use such a waterproof fabric for the glove fabric. However, in the glove manufactured with the waterproof fabric, rainwater is generated from the lateral opening 3 or the manual insertion portion 2. The intrusion problem cannot be solved.

  In view of the problem that rainwater enters into the glove as described above, the present invention can prevent water from entering mainly into the glove from the side opening part, and in addition to the inside of the glove from the hand insertion part or through the glove cloth. It was made for the purpose of providing a sports glove that can prevent water from entering the body.

  The present invention has the following configuration as means for solving the above problems. The present invention is directed to a sports glove, such as a golf glove, which is particularly suitable for use in rainy weather.

Invention of Claim 1 The glove for sports of claim 1 of this application forms a laterally-opened part cut toward the fingertip side in the hand insertion part of the glove body made of impermeable fabric, and tightens the laterally-opened part. It is configured so that it can be pulled with a zipper.

  As the fabric of the glove body, an impermeable material such as natural leather or synthetic leather is used. The fabric is cut into several parts, and each part is sewn by a conventional method to constitute a glove body. The sports glove of the present application has a main purpose of preventing water from entering inside the glove, and does not form any vent holes provided in conventional sports gloves. .

  By the way, fabrics such as natural leather and synthetic leather have almost no elasticity, and this type of sports glove is formed in a size that fits in hand because importance is attached to the fit. Therefore, this type of sports glove is provided with a laterally-opening part for facilitating insertion of a hand from the hand-inserting part, and a fastening fastener for pulling the laterally-opening part in the mounted state. A pair of hook-and-loop fasteners are used as the fastening fasteners.

  By the way, even if the lateral opening portion is pulled by a fastening fastener, the opening width is narrowed but remains open, and rainwater enters the gloves from the lateral opening portion when used in rainy weather.

  Therefore, in the invention of claim 1 of the present application, the laterally opening portion is closed with a gusset material made of an impermeable fabric. As this gusset material, for example, an impermeable fabric having flexibility such as natural leather and synthetic leather can be used. And this gusset material is attached so that the whole opening area of a side opening part may be obstruct | occluded in the state which gave looseness.

  In the sports glove according to the first aspect, when the gusset is worn, the gusset material at the side opening portion can be extended to widen the side opening portion, and there is no hindrance to inserting a hand even if the gusset material is present. In addition, when the hand is inserted into the glove and the side opening portion is pulled by the fastening fastener, the entire glove fits into the hand. When the side opening portion is drawn, the gusset material is folded between the glove body fabric and the skin of the hand.

  In the sports glove according to the first aspect of the present invention, since the gusset material is provided in the laterally open portion, even if rainwater enters the laterally open portion, the gusset material prevents the rainwater from entering the glove. Does not penetrate.

Invention of Claim 2 of the Invention The invention of claim 2 of the present application is the sports glove according to claim 1, wherein the hand insertion part is provided with a contraction part made of a rubber band continuously to the cloth of the glove body, and the lateral part in the contraction part is provided. A cut-off portion is provided at a portion corresponding to the opening portion, and another fastening fastener for pulling the cut-off portion is attached. In the following description, another fastening fastener that draws the separation part is referred to as a contraction part fastening fastener, and the fastening fastener that draws the laterally open part described in claim 1 may be referred to as a body part fastening fastener.

  The contraction part is made of elastic rubber band, has an appropriate width, and is attached to most of the length range of the hand insertion part (length range excluding the lateral opening part). In addition, the separation part in the contraction part is also a part of the lateral opening part, and the separation part is also closed with a series of gussets.

  The shrink part fastening fastener that pulls the cut part of the shrink part is different from the body part fastening fastener that pulls the side opening part of the glove body part, but this shrink part fastening fastener is also a pair of surfaces. Fasteners are used.

  To use the sports glove of the second embodiment, after inserting the hand from the hand insertion portion with the two fastening fasteners removed, the side opening portion of the glove body portion is secured with the body fastening fastener. Pulling, and then pulling the cut-off part of the shrinking part with the shrinking part fastening fastener. In this wearing state, the entire glove is fitted to the hand, and the detachment part of the contraction part is drawn by the contraction part fastening fastener and the contraction action of the contraction part (band rubber) causes The entire circumference comes into close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the wrist. Therefore, it is possible to prevent rainwater from entering the gloves from the hem (hand insertion portion) of the gloves.

Invention of claim 3 of the present invention The invention of claim 3 of the present invention is the sports glove of claim 1 or 2, wherein natural leather or synthetic leather is used as the cloth of the gusset body and the gusset material of the lateral opening portion. The outer surface of the main body and the outer surface of the gusset material are each waterproofed with a water repellent.

  In the waterproofing process according to the third aspect of the present invention, a water repellent film may be formed on the surface of the fabric at the fabric stage, or the water repellent may be sprayed after being formed into a glove. In addition, as a waterproof process by this water repellent, the technique described in Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 4-339900 or Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2004-203946 can be employ | adopted, for example.

  By the way, in the case of natural leather or synthetic leather, the surface side has a property that it is difficult for water to pass through. However, when water is in contact for a long time, water may penetrate into the fabric even from the fabric surface side. Become. However, as in claim 3, when the outer surface of the glove body and the outer surface of the gusset material are waterproofed with a water repellent, even if the fabric is made of natural leather or synthetic leather, Water is not repelled and water does not penetrate into the dough.

Advantages of the Invention of Claim 1 For example, in a sports glove such as a golf glove, a laterally opening portion is formed in the hand insertion portion to facilitate insertion of a hand. In such a case, when playing in rainy weather, rainwater infiltrates into the glove from the laterally opened portion, and the inside of the glove gets wet in a relatively short time.

  On the other hand, in the sport glove of claim 1 of the present application, since the laterally opening portion is closed with a gusset material made of impermeable fabric, it is ensured that rainwater enters the gloves from the laterally opening portion. Can be prevented. Therefore, even in rainy weather, rainwater does not enter the gloves from the side opening, so that it is possible to play in a comfortable state (not wet with water) for a long time. is there.

Advantages of the Invention of Claim 2 The invention of claim 2 of the present invention is the sports glove according to claim 1, wherein the hand insertion part is provided with a contraction part made of a rubber band continuously with the cloth of the glove body, and the contraction part. Since the cut-off portion is provided at the portion corresponding to the horizontal opening portion and another fastening fastener for pulling the cut-off portion is attached, the hem portion of the glove can be brought into close contact with the wrist outer peripheral surface in the mounted state.

  Therefore, in the sports glove according to the second aspect, rain water can be prevented from entering from the bottom of the glove. In addition to the effect of the first aspect (preventing rain water from entering from the lateral opening), rain water can enter the glove. There is an effect that intrusion can be prevented more reliably.

Advantages of the Invention of Claim 3 The invention of claim 3 of the present invention uses natural leather or synthetic leather as the glove body and the gusset material of the laterally opening portion in the sports glove of claim 1 or 2. Since the outer surface of the glove body and the outer surface of the gusset are waterproofed with a water repellent, water does not penetrate into the fabric even if it is a fabric made of natural leather or synthetic leather.

  Therefore, in the sports glove according to claim 3, water does not permeate through the cloth of the glove body portion and the gusset material portion. In addition to the effect of claim 1 or 2, the inside of the glove becomes more difficult to wet. There is an effect.

  The sports glove according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. The sports glove according to this embodiment is suitable for use outdoors, for example, in golf competitions, and particularly in rainy weather. is there.

  The sports glove of this embodiment forms a contraction portion 6 in the hand insertion portion 2 of the glove body 1 having five finger bags 13, 13,..., And cuts the hand insertion portion 2 toward the fingertip side. A side opening 3 is formed. Further, in the sports gloves of this embodiment, the laterally opening portion 3 is closed with the gusset material 4, and the laterally opening portion 3 is clamped with a fastening fastener (two fastening fasteners 5 and 7 as described later). To be able to attract.

  The glove body 1 is formed by cutting a water-impermeable fabric made of natural leather or synthetic leather into several parts and sewing these parts by a conventional method. The parts that make up the glove body 1 are usually made of back materials (including 4 finger backs), palm materials (including 4 finger palms), thumb bag materials, and finger gusset materials. The glove body 1 is formed by stitching together predetermined edges. The sports glove of this embodiment is mainly intended to prevent water from entering the glove, and the glove body 1 has a small ventilation vent provided in a conventional sports glove. No holes are formed.

  The natural leather or synthetic leather that is the fabric of the glove body 1 is hardly stretchable, and in sports gloves, it is formed in a size that fits in the hand in order to give a fit feeling when worn. The sports glove of this embodiment is formed with a laterally opening part 3 for facilitating insertion of a hand from the hand inserting part 2, and a fastening fastener that draws the laterally opening part 3 in the mounted state ( In this embodiment, two fastening fasteners 5, 7) are provided.

  A rubber band having an appropriate width (for example, 15 to 20 mm width) is used for the contraction portion 6 formed in the manual insertion portion 2 of the glove body 1. The contraction portion 6 is attached to the hem portion of the glove body 1 by stitching in the most length range of the hand insertion portion 2. In this contraction portion 6, a portion corresponding to the lateral opening portion 3 is a separation portion 6 a, and the separation portion 6 a of the contraction portion 6 is also a part of the lateral opening portion 3.

  The laterally opening portion 3 is formed by cutting from the hand insertion portion 2 of the glove to the fingertip side to a considerable depth (for example, a depth of 5 to 6 cm). Further, the laterally-opening portion 3 is formed across the contracting portion 6 and the upper portion 11 of the glove body 1. Note that an edge member 3 a is attached to the edge of the lateral opening 3.

  The lateral opening 3 completely closes the entire opening area with the gusset material 4. The gusset 4 is made of the same natural leather or synthetic leather (which is a flexible impermeable fabric) as the fabric of the glove body 1. Further, the gusset material 4 is attached in a slack state so that the laterally opening portion 3 can be opened considerably large. Note that the gusset 4 is also continuous with the separating portion 6 a of the contracting portion 6.

  In this embodiment, the fastening fastener for the lateral opening portion 3 includes a main body fastening fastener 5 for attracting the lateral opening portion 3 of the glove body 1 and a shrinking portion fastening fastener for attracting the separating portion 6a of the shrinking portion 6. 7. The two fastening fasteners 5 and 7 each have a pair of surface fasteners 5a, 5b, 7a and 7b, and the belt-side surface fasteners 5a and 7a are denoted by reference numerals 5a 'and 7a' in FIG. Thus, it can be made to adhere to the surface fasteners 5b, 7b on the glove back 11 side in a detachable manner.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the palm portion 12 of this sports glove is formed with a non-slip portion 14 processed into a concavo-convex shape. As the anti-slip portion 14, for example, a rubber material bonded in a number of small protrusions can be used. The anti-slip portion 14 may be formed on the entire surface of the palm portion 12 of the glove (including the finger bags 13, 13,...) As shown in FIG. You may form only.

  Further, the outer surface of the glove body 1 (the entire outer surface of the upper portion 11 and the palm portion 12 including the finger bags 13, 13...) And the outer surface of the gusset material 4 are each waterproofed with a water repellent. . In the waterproofing process, a water repellent film may be formed on the surface of the fabric at the fabric stage, or the water repellent may be sprayed after being formed into a glove. In addition, as waterproofing processing with this water repellent, for example, the technique described in the above-mentioned JP-A-4-339900 or JP-A-2004-203946 may be adopted, or other known techniques May be adopted.

  In the sports gloves of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, when the two fastening fasteners 5 and 7 are opened, the lateral opening 3 can be opened widely, and the lateral opening 3 has a gusset 4. There is no problem in inserting a hand from the hand insertion portion 2. Then, with the hand inserted in the glove, each belt side / surface fastener 5a, 7a is joined to the glove back side / surface fastener 5b, 7b, respectively, while pulling the lateral opening 3 (FIG. 1). State shown by reference numerals 5a 'and 7a'). The fastening fasteners 5 and 7 are fastened first on the main body part fastening fastener 5 side and then on the contraction part fastening fastener 7 later.

  In this way, when the fastening fasteners 5 and 7 are tightened, the entire glove fits in the hand. In addition, when the side opening part 3 is pulled near, the gusset material 4 of the side opening part 3 will be in the state folded between the cloth | dough of the glove main body 1, and the skin of a hand (refer FIG. 2). Further, in this tightened state, as shown in FIG. 2, the separating portion 6 a of the contracting portion 6 is attracted by the contracting portion fastening fastener 7, and the entire circumference of the inner surface of the hem portion of the glove is caused by the contracting action of the contracting portion 6. It comes into close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the wrist H.

  The sports gloves of this embodiment have the following functions. That is, even if this sports glove is worn and used in the rain, the lateral opening 3 is blocked by the gusset material 4, so that it is possible to prevent rainwater from entering the glove from the lateral opening 3 and the gloves. Since the entire circumference of the inner surface of the hem of the glove is in close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the wrist H by the contracting action of the contracting portion 6 and the tightening by the contracting portion fastening fastener 7, rainwater from the skirt to the inside of the glove Further, since the outer surface of the glove body 1 and the outer surface of the gusset material 4 are waterproofed with a water repellent, rainwater does not permeate the glove fabric and enter the glove.

  Thus, in the sports glove of this embodiment, since the composite rainwater countermeasure (waterproofing countermeasure) is taken as described above, it is possible to reliably prevent water from entering the glove during rainy weather. Therefore, even when it is raining, the feeling of wearing due to the intrusion of rainwater does not deteriorate, so it is not necessary to change gloves repeatedly and play is not adversely affected.

  Further, in the sports gloves of this embodiment, since the anti-slip process 14 is applied to the palm side of the glove, even if the grip is wet with rain water, it has a function of making it difficult to slip in the grip holding state. Therefore, in the sports gloves of this embodiment, the above-described combined rainwater countermeasures (waterproofing countermeasures) and the anti-slip processing 14 on the glove palm side can further enhance ease of use when used in rainy weather.
