Description

  The present invention relates to improving the durability and flexibility of gloves.

  Improvement of durability and flexibility is demanded for gloves for agricultural work, horticulture, and civil engineering construction work, and various studies have been conducted.

Patent Document 1 proposes a glove in which a resin or rubber coating layer is formed only on a portion (palm surface portion) covering a palm of a fiber glove base material. Since a coating layer is not formed on the back surface (portion opposite to the palm surface), flexibility is ensured.
In Patent Document 2, a glove using a strong fiber (aramid fiber) is proposed.
Patent Document 3 proposes a glove in which a rubber coating layer containing air bubbles is formed on the back surface of a fiber glove base material. For forming the coating layer, a method is used in which a fiber glove base material is placed on a predetermined hand mold, immersed in a predetermined coagulating liquid, and then immersed in a solution containing rubber.

However, in the glove described in Patent Document 1, since the coating layer is not formed on the back surface portion, the back surface portion is inferior in wear resistance, and fiber transmission (fraying) easily occurs due to rubbing or scratching. A fiber glove base material may be damaged by a line, and durability falls. In particular, filament yarns (long fibers) are less likely to break than yarns obtained by spinning short fibers such as cotton, and the above-described wire is likely to occur.
In the glove described in Patent Document 2, the durability is improved, but the glove is hardened and the flexibility is lowered. In addition, the use of special fibers increases the cost.

In the glove described in Patent Literature 3, the inherent stretchability of the fiber glove base material is impaired in the back surface due to the formation of the coating layer, and in the method of Patent Literature 3, the thickness of the coating layer is increased to 0.7 mm. , The flexibility of gloves decreases.

It is a figure which shows the state which the fray of the yarn produced in the back part of the glove in the tension test. The principal part sectional drawing in case the cross-sectional shape of the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material in a convex part is a substantially square shape is shown. The principal part sectional drawing in case the cross-sectional shape of the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material in a convex part is a substantially trapezoid is shown. The principal part sectional drawing in case the cross-sectional shape of the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material in a convex part is a substantially semicircle shape is shown.

The present invention relates to a glove in which a reinforcing region is formed on the outer surface of a knitted fiber glove base material. The glove of the present invention satisfies the following requirements I) to IV).
I) The fineness of the fibers constituting the fiber glove base material is 70 to 420 denier.
II) The reinforcing region includes an aggregate of a large number of convex portions formed of resin or rubber and having a substantially flat top surface.
III) Each convex part has a thickness of 0.05 to 0.5 mm.
IV) In any cross section in the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material along the knitting course in the reinforced region, the convex portions are provided so that the plurality of convex portions exist apart from each other. In other words, each knitting course existing in the reinforcing region of the fiber glove base material is traversed by a plurality of convex portions spaced apart from each other. Between the convex portions adjacent to each other, there is a region where the convex portion is not provided (a region where the fiber glove base material is exposed).
By satisfying the above requirements I) to IV), excellent durability and flexibility can be realized at the same time.

  The convex part having a substantially flat top surface in the above II) is the thickness dimension c (the thickness dimension at the midpoint of the bottom of the cross section in any cross section in the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material in the convex part. For example, the thickness dimension c) in FIG. 12 or 13, and a position corresponding to a distance of 1/10 of the length dimension of the base in the section (for example, the length dimension a in FIG. 12 or 13) from the end of the section. Is the thickness dimension b (for example, the thickness dimension b in FIG. 12 or the thickness dimensions b1 and b2 in FIG. 13), the ratio of the thickness dimension b to the thickness dimension c: b / c (hereinafter, simply, The thickness ratio b / c) is preferably 0.7 or more.

When the thickness ratio b / c is 0.7 or more in a convex portion having a substantially flat top surface and a thickness of 0.5 mm or less, a glove having a softer texture can be obtained and good tactile sensation when wearing the glove Is obtained. The upper limit of the thickness ratio b / c is, for example, about 1.
When the thickness dimension b is the same as the thickness dimension c, the thickness of the convex portion in the above III) indicates the thickness dimension b or the thickness dimension c, and when the thickness dimension b is different from the thickness dimension c, Refers to the larger thickness dimension.

  As a preferred form of the convex portion in the glove of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the cross-sectional shape along the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material 2 is such that the top surface has substantially the same length as the bottom surface. An example of the convex portion 1 is a substantially square shape and has a small thickness (thickness t in FIG. 1). Here, FIG. 12 is an enlarged view of a main part of FIG. When the cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. 12 is a convex portion 1 having a substantially square shape, the ratio of the thickness dimension b to the thickness dimension c: b / c is about 1.

  Moreover, as another preferable form of the convex part in the glove of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 13, the cross-sectional shape along the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material is such that the top surface is longer than the bottom surface. The convex part 31 which is a little short substantially trapezoid shape and thickness ratio b1 / c is about 1 or thickness ratio b2 / c is 0.7 or more and less than 1 is mentioned. The thickness dimension b2 is a thickness dimension when the cross-sectional shape is a substantially trapezoidal shape in which the difference between the length of the top surface and the length of the bottom surface is relatively large (in the case of the broken line portion in FIG. 13).

  The values of the cross-sectional shape and thickness ratio b / c in FIGS. 12 and 13 are, for example, the viscosity of resin or rubber (amount of solvent or thickener) in the coating agent applied to the substrate by the printing method, the resin or Adjustments can be made by changing the type of rubber, the type of solvent, or the type of printing method.

  The convex part in this invention is a convex part with a large thickness which does not have a substantially flat top surface like the cross section along the thickness direction of a fiber glove base material as shown in FIG. 51 is not included. Since the thickness ratio b / c is less than 0.7, the convex portion having a substantially semicircular cross section cannot obtain a good tactile sensation.

When the fineness of the fibers constituting the fiber glove base material is 70 to 420 denier, a glove having excellent durability and flexibility can be obtained.
If the fineness of the fibers constituting the fiber glove base material is less than 70 denier, the strength of the fiber glove base material itself is lowered and the durability is lowered. When the fineness of the fibers constituting the fiber glove base material is more than 420 denier, the flexibility of the fiber glove base material itself is lowered.
A well-known thing should just be used for a fiber glove base material, for example, synthetic fibers, such as polyester and polyamide (nylon), and natural fiber are used.

By providing convex portions so that a plurality of convex portions are separated from each other in an arbitrary cross section in the thickness direction of the fiber glove base material along the knitting course in the reinforced region, flexibility is provided. Without impairing, the occurrence of wires (fraying) along the knitting course of the fiber glove base material is suppressed, and durability can be enhanced.
The portions where the convex portions cross the knitting course in the reinforcing region of the fiber glove base material are preferably provided with appropriate dispersion.

  For example, a reinforcing region in which a lion pattern is formed by the convex portion 11 shown in FIG. 5 on the back surface portion 3 of the fiber glove base material in FIG. 7 or a reinforcing region in which a lattice (rhombus) pattern is formed by the convex portion 13 shown in FIG. 7, the convex portions 11 to 13 are arranged in a horizontal direction parallel to the broken line 5 in FIGS. 2 and 5 to 7. Convex portions 11 to 13 (patterns) are formed so as to cross the direction mesh rows. 5 to 7, the convex portions 11 to 13 (patterns) are formed so that the convex portions 11 to 13 that cross the knitting course in the reinforcing region always exist.

Examples of the rubber constituting the convex portion include natural rubber, isoprene, chloroprene, acrylic acid ester, styrene-butadiene copolymer, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer, polyurethane, butyl rubber, polybutadiene rubber, and silicone rubber. Furthermore, a copolymer having 10% by weight or less of a carboxyl-modified group or the like or a blend thereof is also used. Usually, a crosslinking agent such as zinc oxide, a vulcanization accelerator, an anti-aging agent, a pigment, a thickener and the like are added to the rubber. Moreover, in order to give air permeability, a foaming agent, a foam stabilizer, a foaming agent, etc. can be added, and it can also be set as the convex part of an open cell by making it foam mechanically. By foaming, air permeability can be imparted to the convex portion, and the glove can be made lighter and more flexible.
Even when foaming rubber to form a convex part, if foaming conditions such as the amount of foaming agent are appropriately determined so that the thickness of the convex part after foaming is 0.05 to 0.5 mm. Good.

For example, a vinyl chloride resin is used as the resin constituting the convex portion.
Examples of vinyl chloride resins include vinyl chloride homopolymers, copolymers with vinyl acetate, and blends thereof. A well-known plasticizer, stabilizer, thickener, pigment and the like are usually added to the vinyl chloride resin.
Moreover, also about resin, like rubber | gum, a foam can be provided with air permeability by foaming, and a glove can be made lighter and flexible.

When each convex part has a thickness of 0.05 to 0.5 mm, a glove having excellent breathability, durability, and flexibility is obtained. If the thickness of the convex portion is less than 0.05 mm, the transmission line (fraying) along the knitting course of the fiber glove base material is likely to occur, and the durability of the glove is lowered. When the thickness of the convex portion is more than 0.5 mm, the flexibility of the glove is lowered.
Each convex part preferably has a thickness of 0.05 to 0.3 mm. Excellent durability and flexibility can be obtained in a balanced manner.
The thickness of the convex portion can be adjusted by changing the amount of resin or rubber applied in the printing method.

From the viewpoint of air permeability, it is preferable that a large number of convex portions are discretely arranged in the reinforcing region.
In the reinforcing region, it is preferable that a continuous pattern is formed by a large number of convex portions. Stable air permeability, durability, and flexibility can be obtained by discretely arranging the convex portions in a certain pattern within the reinforcing region.

  The continuous pattern is preferably configured by repeatedly arranging a plurality of graphic units having a size recognizable by the naked eye. The graphic unit has a size that can be recognized by the naked eye when colored, even when the convex portion is formed of a transparent resin. By forming a continuous pattern as described above, it is possible to form a reinforcing region that is visually excellent in design when the convex portion is colored. Further, more uniform air permeability, durability, and flexibility can be obtained in the reinforcing region.

Examples of the continuous pattern include geometric patterns such as a deer pattern shown in FIG. 5, a Bishamon turtle shell pattern shown in FIG. 6, and a lattice (diamond) pattern shown in FIG. 7, but are not particularly limited.
As a figure unit constituting a continuous pattern, for example, a figure such as a square, a triangle, a diamond, a polygon, and a circle is used. One of them may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

It is preferable that the area ratio (hereinafter simply referred to as area ratio A) of the convex portions in the arbitrary region including at least one figure unit on the surface of the reinforcing region of the fiber glove base material is 10 to 90%. . The region refers to a region surrounded by an intermediate point between a graphic unit included in the region to be observed and a graphic unit outside the region adjacent to the graphic unit.
For example, in the case of the Kanoko pattern in FIG. 5, the area ratio of the convex portion in the region including one graphic unit occupies in the region 11a including one graphic unit surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The area ratio of the convex part 11 which comprises one figure unit is pointed out. The dashed-dotted line in FIG. 8 is a line located in the middle between mutually adjacent graphic units.
In the case of the Bishamon turtle shell pattern in FIG. 6, the area ratio of the convex portion in the region surrounding one graphic unit is 1 in the region 12a including one graphic unit surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The area ratio of the convex part 12 which comprises one figure unit is pointed out. A one-dot chain line in FIG. 9 is a line located in the middle between adjacent graphic units.
In the case of the lattice pattern of FIG. 7, the area ratio of the convex portion in the region surrounding one graphic unit is one area occupying in the region 13a including one graphic unit surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The area ratio of the convex part 13 which comprises a figure unit is pointed out. The one-dot chain line in FIG. 10 is a line located in the middle between adjacent graphic units.

  When the area ratio A is 10% or more, the durability improvement effect is remarkably obtained without impairing the air permeability. When the area ratio A is 90% or less, the effect of improving flexibility can be remarkably obtained without impairing the air permeability.

  A printing method is used to form the convex portions constituting the continuous pattern. From the viewpoint of workability, screen printing is preferable as the printing method. Further, the convex portion may be formed by printing by a thermal transfer method, an ink jet method or the like.

The reinforcing region may be formed at least in a portion where wire (fraying) is likely to occur due to rubbing or scratching of the fiber glove base material.
Preferably, the reinforcing region is formed in at least a part of a back surface portion (region 3 in FIG. 2) of the fiber glove base material in the fiber glove base material. Here, FIG. 4 shows an example of the glove of the present invention. A reinforcing region in which a deer pattern is formed is provided on the back surface portion 3 of the fiber glove base material.

  More preferably, the reinforcing region is a portion 3a (shaded region) covering the proximal interphalangeal joint of the finger on the back surface of the fiber glove base material in FIG. 2 and / or the back surface of the fiber glove base material. Is formed in a portion 3b (shaded area) covering the joint between the metacarpophalangeal joints of the finger.

In order to increase the strength of the palm surface portion of the glove, a resin or rubber coating layer is formed on at least a part (for example, the fingertip portion) of the palm surface portion 4 of the fiber glove base material in FIGS. It is preferable that the above-described coating layer is formed on the entire palm surface portion 4. In addition to reinforcing the palm surface of the fiber glove base material, it also serves as an anti-slip material.
From the viewpoint of the flexibility and durability of the glove, the thickness of the coating layer is preferably 0.05 to 0.7 mm.
What is necessary is just to use suitably what is used for resin and rubber which comprise said convex-shaped part as resin and rubber which comprise a coating layer.

  What is necessary is just to produce a coating layer using a well-known method, such as putting a fiber glove base material on a predetermined hand shape, and immersing it in a predetermined solution. For example, when a rubber coating layer is formed, a method is used in which a fiber glove base material is placed on a predetermined hand mold, immersed in a predetermined coagulating liquid, and then immersed in a solution containing rubber. When forming a coating layer of vinyl chloride resin, immerse the fiber glove base material in an oil repellent such as fluororesin or silicone resin, and then cover it with a predetermined hand mold and apply a predetermined paste containing vinyl chloride resin. Is used.

According to the present invention, 70 to 420 denier yarn is used for the fiber glove base material, but the range of use of the yarn thickness varies depending on the density of the mesh. When making the mesh coarse, a yarn having a large denier is used by reducing the knitting machine needle gauge number (number of needles per inch). When the mesh is made fine, yarns with a small denier number are used by increasing the gauge number of the needles of the knitting machine.
For example, for a 13G gauge number, a yarn of about 200 to 420 denier is used. For an 18G gauge number, a thread of about 100-280 denier is used. For a 26G gauge number, a thread of about 70 to 150 denier is used.

For example, a fiber glove base material knitted with a yarn of 300 denier or less using a knitting machine having a gauge number of 13 G or more is excellent in thin flexibility, but since the strength is low, Problems such as tearing are likely to occur. For this, while providing the above-mentioned reinforcing region on the back surface of the fiber glove base material and providing the above-mentioned coating layer on the palm surface part of the fiber glove base material, without impairing air permeability and flexibility The above-mentioned problems can be solved and excellent durability can be obtained.
When using a reinforcement area | region and a coating layer together, from the viewpoint of the softness | flexibility of a glove, the thickness of 0.05-0.3 mm of the convex part of a reinforcement area | region and the thickness of a coating layer 0.05-0.7 mm are preferable.

Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

The evaluation results are shown in Table 1.

  As shown in Table 1, in Examples 1 to 15, gloves having excellent breathability, durability, and flexibility were obtained. In the gloves of Comparative Examples 1 to 6 having no reinforcing region, the durability was lowered. In the glove of Comparative Example 8, since the thickness of the convex portion was excessively large, the flexibility was lowered. In the glove of Comparative Example 7, since the thickness of the convex portion was excessively small, the durability was lowered. In the glove of Comparative Example 9, the wear resistance strength of the glove base material itself decreased. In the glove of Comparative Example 10, the flexibility of the glove base material itself decreased. In the glove of the comparative example 11, since the whole reinforcement area | region was coat | covered with the printing layer, the softness | flexibility fell.

Example 16
Fumed silica was added as a thickener to the PVC resin to adjust the V2 viscosity of the PVC resin to about 1.06 million mPa · s. Using this PVC resin, a convex portion (b2 / c = 0.7) having a substantially flat top surface having a substantially trapezoidal cross section as shown in FIG. 13 was formed by screen printing. b2 = 0.133 mm and c = 0.19 mm.
A glove was produced in the same manner as in Example 3 except for the above.

<< Comparative Example 12 >>
Fumed silica was added as a thickener to the PVC resin to adjust the V2 viscosity of the PVC resin to about 41.50 million mPa · s. Using this PVC resin, a convex portion (b / c = 0.60) having a substantially semi-circular cross section and having no substantially flat top surface as shown in FIG. 14 was formed by screen printing. b = 0.342 mm and c = 0.60 mm.
A glove was produced in the same manner as in Example 3 except for the above.

[Evaluation]
Fifteen subjects wore the gloves of Examples 3 and 16 and Comparative Example 12, and the tactile sensation at that time was evaluated according to the following criteria.
Using a knitting machine with a gauge number of 18G and a fiber glove base material without a reinforcing region knitted with 140 denier yarn as a standard, there is a slightly strange feeling compared to that standard, but with a soft texture It was evaluated as A (good tactile sensation). Moreover, the feeling of incongruity was remarkable compared with the reference | standard thing, the sense of incongruity was remarkable, and the thing of a hard texture was evaluated as B (tactile feeling is not favorable). And about the glove of each Example and the comparative example, the tactile sensation of a person with many persons was made into the tactile sensation of the glove.
The evaluation results are shown in Table 2.

The gloves of Examples 3 and 16 had better tactile sensation when wearing the gloves than the gloves of Comparative Example 12. Also, the gloves of Examples 1, 2, and 4 to 15 had a convex portion having the same cross-sectional shape as the glove of Example 3, and good tactile sensation was obtained as in Example 3.
In addition, since the glove of Example 16 was the same as the glove of Example 3 except the cross-sectional shape of a convex-shaped part, the outstanding durability and the softness | flexibility similar to the case of Example 3 were shown. In the glove of Comparative Example 12, the cross-sectional shape is substantially semicircular, and since the thickness ratio b / c is less than 0.7, good tactile sensation cannot be obtained and the thickness of the convex portion is 0.6 mm. As in the case of Comparative Example 8, the flexibility decreased.
