Description

  The present invention relates to a glove using leather, and more particularly to a glove that is worn during high-temperature work such as welding.

Heat-resistant gloves include double-layered structures in which leather is laminated on the front side of the palm and aramid fibers (Dupon brand name Kevlar (registered trademark)) are laminated on the inner side, and silicon on the leather surface. The thing which scattered the non-slip convex part of is known.

  However, even though these have a double structure, heat is transmitted to the palm during use, which is unsuitable for continuous use at high temperatures for a long time. To increase the thermal insulation effect, it is only necessary to increase the thickness of the leather. However, if the leather on the palm of the hand is thick, it will be difficult to bend as a whole, and the leather will not be able to sufficiently follow the movement of gripping the hand, resulting in poor grip comfort. Become. Therefore, there is a problem that the thickness cannot be increased beyond a certain thickness (about 2 mm). In addition, the thicker leather makes it harder to grip, and as a material that is easy to bend and has excellent heat resistance, aramid fibers are layered on the inner surface of the leather to increase the heat insulation effect. Come through.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a leather glove that has an excellent heat insulating effect and also has a property of sufficiently following the movement of the hand.

  The leather glove of the present invention is characterized in that a three-dimensional mesh sheet serving as a heat insulating layer is arranged on the inner surface of the palm of a glove body made of leather.

  The palm part may be a two-layer structure of a three-dimensional mesh sheet and leather. However, in order to improve the wearing feeling and protect the three-dimensional mesh sheet, the three-dimensional mesh sheet is provided on the inner surface of the three-dimensional mesh sheet as in the invention of claim 2. It is desirable to arrange finer fabric.

  In order not to impair the feeling of use while sufficiently achieving the heat insulating effect, it is desirable that the thickness of the three-dimensional mesh sheet is 3 mm to 5 mm as in the invention of claim 3.

  In the present invention, a heat insulating layer made of air is formed on the inner side of the leather by a three-dimensional mesh sheet while the outside air and the air in the gloves are blocked by the leather, and a high heat insulating effect is obtained. Moreover, because of the elasticity of the 3D mesh sheet, the 3D mesh sheet follows the movement when grasping the hand and deforms, and a comfortable feeling of use is obtained. The three-dimensional mesh sheet is hardly crushed and can maintain the heat insulating effect.

  In addition, if the fabric is placed on the inner surface of the 3D mesh sheet, foreign matter can be prevented from entering the 3D mesh sheet due to the fineness of the fabric, and the effect as a heat insulation layer can be fully demonstrated. Also gets better.

  Furthermore, if the thickness of the three-dimensional mesh sheet is 3 to 5 mm, the thickness can be reduced as a whole while a sufficient heat insulation effect is obtained, and a natural grip feeling can be maintained.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the palm portion 2 of the glove body 1 of the leather glove is overlapped with a three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 serving as a heat insulating layer on a fabric 3 that is in direct contact with the hand. A leather 5 that is slightly larger than the mesh sheet 4 is arranged, stitched to the fabric 3 along the outer peripheral edge of the leather 5, and the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 is sandwiched between the fabric 3 and the leather 5. In addition, in order to make a thumb bend easily, the leather 5 and the three-dimensional mesh sheet | seat 4 are divided into two members of the thumb part and the other part. Then, the glove body 1 covering the entire hand is made by sewing the edge of the fabric 3 of the palm 2 with the leather of the back 6 of the hand. Moreover, the leather of the part 7 which covers a wrist along the lower end edge part of the palm part 2 and the back part 6 of the hand is stitched together.

  The three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 has both form stability and elasticity, and as shown in FIG. 3, standing fibers 11 are interposed between the outer surface 9 and the lining 10 of the same shape in which the turtle shell-shaped gaps 8 are regularly formed. It is a thing. A heat insulating effect is obtained by the air between the outer material 9 and the lining material 10. The standing fibers 11 are curved in a bow shape, and a large number of the standing fibers 11 are arranged between the outer material 9 and the lining material 10. Further, the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 is desirably thick in order to obtain a heat insulating effect, but if it is too thick, the grip comfort is impaired. Therefore, it is desirable that the thickness is 3 mm or more and 5 mm or less, which is thicker than the thickness of the normal leather 5 (2 mm or less). Moreover, the space | gap of a solid mesh sheet is made larger than cloth. As a specific example of the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4, trade name FUSION (registered trademark) of Asahi Kasei Fibers Corporation can be cited.

  The fabric 3 is a flat plate shape in which the fibers are gathered and thin with respect to the width, and specific examples include woven fabric and knit. More specifically, the material used is DuPont's trade name Kevlar (registered trademark), which is excellent in heat resistance, flame resistance, cut resistance, and chemical resistance. As an example of the dimensions of the fabric 3, the thickness is 1 to 2 mm, the fineness of the eyes is 1 mm or less. Note that cotton may be used as another material.

  The leather 5 is made of natural leather such as cow, pig or sheep, or synthetic leather. Animal skin is divided into two layers, an epithelial layer and a dermis layer, and a subcutaneous tissue. As leather, the epithelial layer and the subcutaneous tissue are removed, and a strong dermis layer with many fibers is used. Synthetic leather generally has a two-layer structure with a synthetic resin as a surface layer based on a woven fabric or a non-woven fabric. Among them, in what is called artificial leather, a nonwoven fabric is used as a base fabric, and a urethane resin having a continuous fine porous structure is used as a surface layer. There are also one-layer structures composed of only a synthetic resin layer or a base fabric, or a three-layer structure in which a woven or knitted fabric is inserted between the base fabric and the resin layer.

  As another example of leather gloves, as shown in FIG. 4, the palm 2 is made of leather 5, first fabric (trade name Kevlar (registered trademark)) 12 having excellent heat resistance, and second soft to the touch. It is characterized by having a multilayer structure in which the fabric (cotton yarn) 13, the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4, and the second fabric (cotton yarn) 13 are stacked and sewn in order from the surface side to the inner surface side. In this way, the quality of cotton yarn in the palm of the human hand, good touch and moisture absorption (sweat) properties can be obtained, and the heat insulation effect is enhanced by the laminated structure of the leather 5 and the first fabric 12, Furthermore, since the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 is sandwiched by the second fabric 13 from inside and outside, the heat insulating effect of the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 can be further improved.

  As another example of leather gloves, as shown in FIG. 5, not only the palm 2 but the entire glove body 1 is made of a first fabric (trade name Kevlar (registered trademark)) 12 having excellent heat resistance. , Leather 5, second fabric (cotton yarn) 13 with good touch, three-dimensional mesh sheet 4, and second fabric (cotton yarn) 13 in this order from the surface side to the inner surface side, and has a multilayer structure And If it does in this way, the heat-resistant effect of not only the palm part 2 but the whole glove can be improved. Further, since the two layers on the surface side of the palm portion 2 are different in order from the example of FIG. 4, the same heat resistance effect can be obtained.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. For example, the fabric 3 may be omitted and the palm portion 2 may be formed of only two materials, the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 and the leather 5. In this case, although not shown, the three-dimensional mesh sheet 4 and the leather 5 are stitched together to form the palm portion 2 of the hand. Then, the glove body 1 is formed by sewing on the leather of the back part 6 of the hand.
