Description

The present invention relates to gloves.

Gloves for medical and medical examinations such as polyvinyl chloride, natural rubber latex, and nitrile rubber have high adhesion. Therefore, when the glove is removed from the hand, there is a high possibility that dirt, bacteria, viruses, etc. adhering to the surface of the glove will adhere to the fingers and the like. It takes care and effort to remove the used gloves without touching the surface of the gloves, and it also takes time to clean the fingers after removing them. When removing the gloves worn on both hands, for example, the edge near the cuffs of one glove is picked up by the fingers of the other hand with the gloves worn so that the back is turned upside down. One glove that has been removed from the hand in the inverted state is grasped by the other hand with the glove attached, and when the glove of the other hand is removed, the fingertip of the one hand that has been removed from the glove is touched. Insert it between the cuff and wrist of the glove of the other hand, turn it over, and slide it toward the fingertip to remove it. In this case, the glove held by the other hand is wrapped in the glove of the other hand that has been turned over and removed. As a result, none of the gloves are discarded with their faces exposed.

In Patent Document 1, by providing a knob portion on a part of the surface of the glove, when the rubber glove is attached / detached while pulling the knob portion, the attachment / detachment itself becomes easy, and the dirt on the glove surface becomes dirty on the arm or hand. Gloves are disclosed that eliminate the risk of sticking. The gloves disclosed in Patent Document 1 and the like can be easily removed by pulling the knob portion of one glove with the other hand (with the glove attached) when removing the glove worn on both hands. It can be removed, but when removing the gloves of the other hand, the knob cannot be pulled with one hand (with the gloves removed). That is, there is a possibility that dirt, bacteria, viruses and the like adhering to the surface of the knob may adhere to the arm, fingers and the like. Therefore, it takes care and effort to remove the gloves of the other hand.

As mentioned above, when removing gloves worn on both hands, remove one glove by pinching the edge near the cuffs with the fingers of the other hand while wearing gloves so that the back side is turned upside down. This can be done easily. However, when removing the gloves of the other hand, when the fingertips of the one hand for which the gloves have already been removed are inserted between the cuffs of the gloves of the other hand and the wrist, the fingertips or hands of the other hand may be removed. It is possible that the other hand may touch the surface of the cuff of the glove. Therefore, special attention is required. Gloves are desired that facilitate the work of removing gloves and prevent dirt, bacteria, viruses, etc. adhering to the surface of the gloves from adhering to fingers and the like when the gloves are removed.

The present invention has been invented in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to facilitate the operation of turning the glove upside down from the cuffs and removing the glove, and also to facilitate the operation of removing the glove from the cuffs. The purpose is to provide gloves that can be prevented from adhering to fingers and the like.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a sheet-shaped tongue-shaped portion extending from the cuff end side of the glove to the instep side of the glove by a predetermined length is provided, and a part of the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion is formed. A glove is provided which is removably attached to the facing surface of the glove.

According to the present invention, it is possible to facilitate the operation of turning the glove over from the cuffs and removing the glove, and to avoid the adhesion of dirt, bacteria, viruses, etc. adhering to the surface of the glove to the fingers and the like when the glove is removed.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the glove is provided with a sheet-shaped tongue-shaped portion extending from the front cuff end to the instep side, and the tongue-shaped portion is partially opposed to the glove on the back surface side thereof. It is removably attached to the surface. When the glove is removed from the hand wearing the glove, a part of the tongue-shaped portion is peeled off from the surface of the glove, the tongue-shaped portion is pulled toward the instep side, and the cuff side of the glove is turned upside down. The back surface of the tongue-shaped portion is attached to the surface of the glove instep. This facilitates the work of turning the glove over from the cuff side and removing it, and also prevents dirt, bacteria, viruses, etc. adhering to the surface of the worn glove from adhering to the hands and fingers when removing the glove. It is possible.

FIG. 1A is a schematic plan view illustrating an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1B is a diagram schematically showing a cross section taken along the line AA of the cuff opening of the glove of FIG. 1A. Although the glove for the right hand is shown in FIG. 1, the glove for the left hand has the same configuration as that of the right hand.

Referring to FIG. 1A, the glove 10 includes a sheet-shaped tongue-shaped portion 20 extending from the cuff opening end to the glove instep side. The back surface of the tip of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is so-called glue-killed, and is a knob portion 21 that does not adhere to gloves. The back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 excluding the knob portion 21 is attached to the facing surface of the glove so as to be re-peelable and re-adhesive, for example.

In the example of FIG. 1A, in the planar shape of the tongue-shaped portion 20, the knob portion 21 at the tip has a roundness (arc), and the tongue from the base portion of the knob portion 21 to the cuff end portion (tongue on the opposite side of the knob portion 21). The width of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is formed to expand in a skirt shape (arc shape) toward the base portion of the shaped portion 20), but it is of course not limited to such a shape of the tongue-shaped portion 20. .. For example, it may be trapezoidal, rectangular, or the like.

Both sides of the cuff opening of the glove 10 have folded portions 30L and 30R that are valley-folded inside the glove, as shown in the end view of FIG. 1 (B). The folded portions 30L and 30R are folded in a substantially triangular shape with the cuff opening side as the base. The valley-folded surfaces of the folded portions 30L and 30R, that is, the surfaces facing the front side of the glove and the surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20, are coated with an adhesive, for example, and are strongly peeled off again.

When the glove is used, a hand is inserted through the cuff opening of the glove 10, but the folded portions 30L and 30R are adhered to the glove 10 and are in a folded state as shown in FIG. 1 (A).

In the example of FIG. 1A, the width of the base portion (cuff end portion) of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is substantially the same as the width of the glove 10 with the folded portions 30L and 30R folded. Of course, the invention is not limited to such a configuration. For example, the width of the base portion of the tongue-shaped portion 20 may be narrower than the width of the cuff end portion of the glove 10 in which the folded portions 30L and 30R are folded.

When removing the glove 10 from the state where the glove 10 is attached to both hands, for example, one hand (for example, the right hand) wearing the glove 10 and the other hand (for example, the left hand) glove 10 (also referred to as the other glove 10). The folded portions 30L and 30R are peeled off and deployed on both sides, and the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the other glove 10 is peeled off from the surface of the other glove 10 with the finger of one hand (for example, the right hand) wearing the glove 10. The tongue-shaped portion 20 is pulled toward the instep, and the cuff side of the other glove 10 is turned inside out, and the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the other glove 10 is attached to the surface of the other glove 10 on the instep side. ..

Next, the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the other glove 10 is attached to the surface of the instep portion of the other glove 10, and the cuff side is turned upside down. The folded portions 30L and 30R of the glove 10 of one hand (also referred to as “one glove 10”) are peeled off and unfolded on both sides, and the knob portion 21 of the one glove 10 is attached to the tongue. The tongue-shaped portion 20 of one glove 10 is peeled off from the surface of one glove 10 by holding it with the finger of the other hand wearing the other glove 10 with the shaped portion 20 attached to the instep side and turning the cuff side inside out. The tongue-shaped portion 20 of the one glove 10 is pulled toward the instep side so that the cuff side of the one glove 10 is turned inside out, and the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the one glove 10 is the instep portion of the one glove 10. Adhere to the surface.

In this state, the tongue-shaped portion 20 is attached to the instep side and the cuff side is turned inside out. Remove the gloves 10) with the cuffs turned inside out. In this case, the glove 10 is gloved from the other hand by grasping the cuff side of the glove 10 of the other hand with the finger of one hand wearing one glove 10, or pulling the glove 10 of the other hand toward the fingertip side. May be removed. Since one hand is worn with the cuffs turned inside out, the fingers of one hand are not contaminated when the gloves 10 of the other hand are removed.

Next, one glove is inserted by inserting the other hand from which the other glove 10 is removed from the fingertip of the fingertip and from the cuff side of the one glove 10 in a state where the cuff side is turned upside down, and pushing out the one glove 10 from the hand. 10 can be removed from one hand. Alternatively, the flipped cuff side of one glove 10 may be pinched with the fingers of the other hand from which the other glove 10 has been removed, and the one glove 10 may be removed from one hand. On the other hand, the glove 10 is in a state where the cuff side is turned upside down, and the open end portion is in a state where the folded portions 30L and 30R are expanded on both sides, so that the glove 10 can be easily removed safely. In a normal operation of removing one glove 10 from one hand with the finger of the other hand from which the other glove 10 has been removed, contamination of the other finger is reliably avoided. Here, the normal operation shall exclude touching, touching, etc. the surface of the glove 10 by hand due to excessive carelessness or intentional.

2 (A) is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of the glove 10 of FIG. 1 (A). Referring to FIG. 2A, the back surface of the sheet-shaped tongue-shaped portion 20 has an adhesive portion 22 made of a re-peelable and re-adhesive adhesive except for the back surface of the knob portion 21 at the tip of the tongue-shaped portion 20. It is provided and is removably adhered to the surface of the glove 10. For the adhesive portion 22, for example, a silicon-based adhesive may be used.

FIG. 2B is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a state of the tongue-shaped portion 20 when the user removes the glove 10. In FIG. 2B, the cross section of the user's hand and the palm side of the glove is not shown for simplicity. Referring to FIG. 2B, when removing the glove 10, the knob portion 21 of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is picked up by the fingers of the hand wearing the glove 10 and pulled to the side opposite to the glove cuffs, and the tongue-shaped portion 20 is pulled to the glove 10 Peel off from the surface of the.

FIG. 2C is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a state of the tongue-shaped portion 20 when the user removes the glove 10. In FIG. 2C, the cross section of the user's hand and the palm side of the glove 10 is not shown for simplicity. As shown in FIG. 2C, the user pulls the knob portion 21 at the tip of the tongue-shaped portion 20 toward the back side of the glove 10 with the finger of the hand wearing the glove 10, and pulls the tongue-shaped portion 20 to the glove 10. Re-adhere to the surface of the instep. At this time, the back surface of the glove 10 on the cuff side is turned upside down (the back surface of the glove side is turned upside down). Insert it, and with the glove 10 turned inside out, push it out toward your finger to remove it. Alternatively, the back side of the cuff side of the glove 10 (turned over and exposed to the front side) can be picked up with the fingers of the hand from which the glove 10 has been removed and pulled toward the fingertip side so that the front side of the glove 10 is turned upside down. good.

As shown in FIG. 2C, since the cuff side of the glove 10 is turned upside down, when the user inserts the finger of one hand from which the glove 10 has been removed from the cuff side of the glove 10 or removes the glove 10. When the back surface of the glove 10 on the cuff side is picked up by the finger of one hand from which the glove 10 has been removed and the back surface is turned upside down, the glove 10 can be removed without touching the front surface.

FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view illustrating an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 shows a state after using the glove 10 of FIG. 1 (A). As shown in FIG. 3, the folded portions 30L and 30R are peeled off from the surface of the glove 10 and spread on both the left and right sides.

That is, both edges of the glove 10 have a portion widened toward both sides of the cuff end from a position separated by a predetermined distance from the position corresponding to the base of the thumb of the glove 10 to the cuff side, and before and after use. Occasionally, the folded portions 30L and 30R, which are the widened parts on both sides, are in a state of being folded (folded) inside the glove.

When removed after use, the folded portions 30L and 30R in the folded state are pushed open to both sides. Therefore, the cuff opening of the glove 10 worn on the hand is widened. Since the cuff opening of the glove 10 is widened, the operation when pulling the tongue-shaped portion 20 to turn the glove cuff inside out is facilitated, and since the area of the cuff opening is expanded, the glove 10 is removed. The fingertips of one hand can be easily inserted into the cuff opening of the glove 10 of the other hand, or the back of the cuff side can be picked up and removed in a flipped state to avoid contamination of the fingers and safety of operation. Is improving.

In the example of FIG. 3, the tongue-shaped portion 20 is peeled off, turned inside out, and deployed in a state of straddling the end of the glove cuffs, but this is for the purpose of explanation only. When the tongue-shaped portion 20 is turned over with the gloves 10 worn as shown in FIG. 3, the surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 comes into contact with the hand or clothes. Although the tongue-shaped portion 20 is integrally formed with the glove 10 main body, the cuff end portion of the tongue-shaped portion 20 may be adhered to the glove 10.

FIG. 4 is a schematic three-dimensional diagram showing the state shown in FIG. 2 (C). For example, the user uses the finger of one hand (for example, the right hand) wearing the glove 10 to hold the knob 21 at the tip of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the glove 10 of the other hand (for example, the left hand) with the other glove 10. With the other glove 10 pulled to the instep side and the cuff side of the other glove 10 turned inside out as shown in FIG. 2C, the adhesive portion 22 on the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of the other glove 10 is the instep of the other glove 10. It shall be in a state of being attached to the surface of.

As described above, the glove 10 of one hand (for example, the right hand) is also the tongue of the other glove 10 with the cuff side turned inside out with the other hand (for example, the left hand) wearing the glove 10 in the state of FIG. The adhesive portion 22 on the back surface of the shaped portion 20 is attached to the surface of the instep of the other glove 10.

With the other hand wearing the other glove 10 with the cuff side turned inside out, remove one glove 10 with the cuff side turned inside out from one hand.

Then, when the other glove 10 in the state of FIG. 4 is removed with one hand with one glove 10 completely removed, the other glove 10 is turned inside out with the finger of one hand with the one glove 10 removed. Pinch the back of the cuff side and remove it in an inverted state, or insert the finger of one hand with one glove 10 removed between the other glove 10 and the wrist and turn the other glove 10 inside out. Remove it by moving it forward (on the fingertip side of the other hand) while it is still in place.

The knob portion 21 at the tip of the tongue-shaped portion 20 of one glove 10 is pulled toward the back side of the glove 10 with the finger of the hand wearing the other glove 10, and as shown in FIG. 2C, the glove 10 If the cuff side is turned inside out, the cuff side of the glove 10 is maintained in the state of being turned inside out (the back side of the cuff appears on the front side) for a while, and the cuff side of the glove turned upside down is naturally shown. It rarely returns to the state of 2 (B). Therefore, it goes without saying that the adhesive strength when the adhesive portion 22 on the back surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is once re-peeled and re-adhesive to the surface of the instep of the glove may be lower than the adhesive strength before the re-peeling. .. It should be noted that the method of removing the glove 10 described above is an example, and it is needless to say that the method of removing the glove 10 is not limited to the above method.

5 is a diagram illustrating a modified example of the embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C correspond to FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C. In the modified example of FIG. 5, the base portion of the tongue-shaped portion 20 (the side opposite to the knob portion 21 at the tip portion) is bonded to the surface of the glove 10 by the adhesive portion 23 at the cuff end portion of the glove 10. The base of the tongue-shaped portion 20 is not limited to the structure of adhering to the cuff end of the glove 10, and may be adhered at a position away from the cuff end of the glove 10. Since the peeling of the tongue-shaped portion 20 in FIG. 5 (B) and the re-adhesion to the back side of the hand in FIG. 5 (C) are the same as those in FIGS. 2 (B) and 2 (C), the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating another modification of the embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6, in this modification, the folded portions 30L and 30R are removably adhered to the surface of the glove 10 and the surface of the tongue-shaped portion 20 as shown in FIG. 1 (A), instead of being removably adhered to each other. It is kept folded by the tape 40. Both ends of the tape 40 may be adhered to or re-peelable strongly adhered to the folded portions 30L and 30R.

FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a case where the user removes the glove 10 after using the glove 10. As shown in FIG. 6, the user may cut the tape 40 with scissors. A cut line such as a perforation may be provided at the center of the tape 40. Alternatively, if both ends of the tape 40 are strongly adhered to the folded portions 30L and 30R, they may be peeled off again. Since the tongue-shaped portion 20 is the same as that of the above embodiment, the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 8 is a plan view illustrating still another modification of the embodiment of the present invention. In the example of FIG. 7, the configuration does not have the folded portions 30L and 30R. When the glove 10 is removed, the opening of the cuff of the glove 10 does not widen as shown in FIG. 3, but the back of the cuff side of the glove 10 is turned upside down by peeling off the tongue-shaped portion 20 and pulling it toward the back of the hand. It is possible to remove the glove 10 with the cuff side turned upside down, facilitating the operation and ensuring safety.

Needless to say, the gloves 10 are not limited to disposable rubber gloves for inspection and examination (excluding surgery) such as polyvinyl chloride, natural rubber latex, and nitrile rubber.

If the use is limited, the folded portions 30L and R may be folded on the palm side of the glove 10, and the tongue-shaped portion 20 may be provided on the palm side of the glove 10. Alternatively, a configuration in which the tongue-shaped portion 20 is provided on both the palm side and the front side of the glove 10 can be considered.
