  Next, an embodiment of a glove according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In each of the drawings, from a viewpoint from a certain direction, it is hidden by another component and becomes invisible. However, portions constituting the components necessary for the description of the present embodiment are represented by broken lines.

  The embodiment of the glove 10 according to the present invention employs a form having a bag-shaped main body 13 that can accommodate a user's hand inside the glove 10 through the opening 12. Each of the user's fingers can be inserted into the corresponding finger bag portion 14 through the opening 12. However, the finger bag portion 14 may be a bag portion in which only the thumb accommodating portion is separated like a so-called mittens.

When the glove 10 is worn by the user, the back of the user's hand is arranged near the back side of the back surface 16. That is, FIG. 1 is a view of the glove 10 viewed from the back of the hand.
The brim portion 18 and the brim portion 20 are juxtaposed over the outer peripheral surface of the glove 10, which is preferably closer to the opening 12 than the back side surface 16. In this embodiment, the collar portion 20 is provided closer to the opening 12 than the collar portion 18.

  Each of the roots 18a, 20a of the collar portions 18, 20 is joined to the outer peripheral surface of the glove 10, more specifically, the glove body portion 13, while the tip portions (collar tips) 18b of the collar portions 18, 20 are 20b is not bonded to any element. Therefore, each of the brim portions 18 and 20 can be folded back, and the front end portions 18b and 20b of the brim can be turned in the direction of the base side of the glove 10 (the side with the opening 12) or the front end of the glove 10 depending on the usage. It is possible to freely turn any one of the sides (the side where the finger pouch portion 14 is located).

  The glove 10 further has a large collar 22 that is larger in size than the collars 18,20. The base 22a of the large brim 22 is fixed to a position on the outer peripheral surface of the glove 10 while the base 18a of the brim 18 and the base 20a of the brim 20 are fixed side by side.

The distal end (collar tip) 22b of the large collar portion 22 is not joined to any element. Therefore, the collar portion 22 can be folded back, and the distal end portion 22b of the large collar 22 can be oriented in the direction of the base side (the side with the opening 12) of the glove 10 or the distal end side of the glove 10 (finger bag) depending on the use condition. Any of the directions (the side where the part 14 is located) can be freely turned.
Since the large brim portion 22 has such a structure, when the tip portion 22b of the large brim portion 22 faces the root side of the glove 10 as shown in FIG. 20 will be covered from the outside, preferably completely. It is for this reason that the collar portion 20 is indicated by a phantom line in FIG.

  The orientations of the distal ends of the brim portions 18 and 20 and the large brim portion 22 shown in FIG. 1 are examples of appropriate orientations when working with the hand raised upward. By making the tips 18b, 20b of the collars 18, 20 upward, the joint between the roots 18a, 20a of the collar and the outer peripheral surface of the glove 10 is located between the collar and the outer peripheral surface of the glove. Moisture can be received by the formed valley-shaped portion, and the water can be prevented from dripping in the arm direction of the glove wearer. In other words, an acute-angled valley is formed on the outer peripheral surface of each brim portion and the glove sleeve portion. Further, the tip 22b of the large brim portion 22 is directed downward, that is, toward the arm so as to cover the sleeve of the clothing worn by the user, thereby preventing moisture from entering the clothing sleeve. it can.

  The directions of the distal ends of the brim portions 18 and 20 and the large brim portion 22 shown in FIG. 2 are examples of appropriate directions in a case where the operation is performed with the hand lowered. When the tip 22b of the large collar 22 faces the fingertip side of the glove 10 as shown in FIG. 2, the large collar 22 covers the collar 18 from the outside, and preferably completely. By directing the tip 22b of the large brim 22 downward, that is, in the direction of the fingertip, it is possible to prevent flowing water from entering the sleeve of the clothing. Further, the direction of the distal end portions 18b, 20b of the first and second collar portions 18, 20 can be arbitrarily changed by the user according to the use situation.

  In order to more reliably prevent the user's body from getting wet, it is preferable to wear rain gear with sleeves in combination with the gloves 10. FIG. 2 shows an example in which rain gear is worn in addition to the gloves 10. Wear the sleeve 26 of the rain gear so that the second brim portion 20 is completely covered, and wear it so that the tip 26a of the rain gear is located between the second brim portion 20 and the base 22a of the large brim portion 22. .

  FIG. 3 is a view of the glove 10 viewed from the side opposite to the viewpoint of FIG. 1, that is, from the palm (palm) side. When the glove 10 is worn by the user, the palm of the user is placed near the back side of the palm surface 28.

  The length of the brim of the large brim 22 provided on the glove 10 according to the present embodiment is such that the length from the base 22a to the tip 22b is constant or substantially constant on the back side of the hand as shown in FIGS. It is. However, as shown in FIG. 3, the length of the palm-side brim tip 22c from the base 22a to the tip 22c may not be constant. Specifically, the brim tip portion 22c on the palm side may have a shape that is concave toward the root side so as to draw an arc. That is, the length of the large brim on the palm side is made narrower, especially as it approaches the center, that is, toward the middle finger, as compared to the length of the large brim on the back of the hand.

By adopting such a shape, it is possible to prevent the large brim 22 from hindering the work when the wearer of the glove 10 performs various works such as opening and closing the hand.
Subsequently, the configuration of another embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail. The basic structure of the glove 100 according to another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 4 is the same as the structure of the glove 10 according to the previous embodiment, and therefore, the same configuration as that of the previous embodiment in FIG. Elements have the same reference numerals.

  However, in the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, a connecting element (fastening element) 32 such as a hook-and-loop fastener is fixedly mounted on both surfaces of the second collar portion 20. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, another connecting element 34 corresponding to the connecting element 32 is provided at the tip of the sleeve 26 of the rain gear. The fastening elements 32 and 34 are both components of a set of coupling mechanisms whose surfaces are removably coupled.

  With this configuration, this embodiment is used as waterproof clothing including a combination of the glove 100 and rain gear. That is, the glove 100 and the sleeve 26 of the rain gear are connected via the connection elements 32 and 34, so that the intrusion of moisture into the glove 100 and the sleeve 26 of the rain gear can be more effectively prevented. The connection elements 32 are preferably provided on both sides of the second collar part 20, respectively, regardless of which direction the second collar part 20 is oriented, the connection element provided on the side of the sleeve 26 of the rain gear. This is because it becomes easy to connect with 34. It is preferable that the connected portion of the connecting elements 32 and 34 be put in the sleeve 26 of the rain gear from the viewpoint of ensuring more efficient waterproofness.

  FIG. 6 is an example of a cross-sectional view of a main part when the waterproof clothing 200 composed of the gloves 100 shown in FIG. 4 and the sleeves 26 of the rain gear shown in FIG. Indicated by. It should be noted that, in the figure, the cross-section is omitted for portions that are not necessary for understanding the present invention.

  Depending on the orientation of the collar 20, the coupling element 34 at the tip of the rain gear sleeve 26 is coupled to one of the coupling elements 32 provided on both sides of the collar 20, respectively. At this time, it is preferable that the part where the connecting elements 32 and 34 are connected to each other is worn inside the sleeve 26.

  It is preferable to use a highly waterproof material for the glove 10, the collar portions 18, 20, 22 and the rain gear (especially, the sleeve 26 thereof). For example, it is conceivable to form the glove 10 or rain gear using waterproof fiber, rubber, or the like. At this time, it is more preferable that the material forming the glove 10 and its collar portion and the material forming the rain gear, especially the rain gear sleeve 26 be the same waterproof material.

  Next, another embodiment of the large collar portion 22 according to the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 7A, a discharge port 50 is formed in the large brim portion 22, and a ring-shaped convex portion 51 is provided at a peripheral portion of the discharge port 50. The discharge port 50 is a hole that penetrates through the large collar portion 22 as shown in FIG. A ring-shaped convex portion 51 is provided on one surface of the large brim portion 22 so as to surround the periphery of the discharge port 50. Further, a ring-shaped convex portion 51 ′ may be provided on the other surface of the large brim portion 22 and also on the peripheral portion of the outlet 50. The ring-shaped convex portion 51 is not limited to a circular shape, and may have any shape as long as it is formed so as to surround the outlet 50. The ring-shaped convex portion 51 may be formed by, for example, wrapping with a resin washer or a thread. The size of the discharge port 50 is preferably about 0.7 to 1.3 mm.

The discharge port 50 can discharge the liquid to the outside in the event that the liquid enters the space formed between the large collar portion 22 of the glove 10 and the main body portion 13 or the collar portion 18. Ring-shaped protrusion 51
, 51 ′ can be positioned outside the collar 22 to prevent the liquid from entering through the outlet 50 when the liquid flows along the outer surface of the glove 10. The outlet 50 is preferably on the little finger side and near the base 22a of the large brim portion 22. For example, when a person raises his hand and subsequently lowers his hand, he often lowers his / her finger from the little finger side. At this time, if the discharge port 50 is provided on the little finger side, the liquid is easily discharged.

  It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment described with reference to the drawings, but may be variously modified, replaced, or equivalently configured without departing from the scope of the appended claims and the gist thereof. Obtaining is obvious to one skilled in the art.
