As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the glove attaching / detaching apparatus 100 includes a rectangular parallelepiped main body 1 and a glove support 2 installed on the upper side of the main body 1.
The main body 1 has a side peripheral surface 3 and a bottom surface 4 surrounded by a flat plate, and the upper surface 5 has a first through hole a1 (the outer peripheral shape is indicated by a dotted line A in FIG. 2) at the center position. Covered with a flat plate. In the illustrated example, the through hole a1 has an outer peripheral shape of a distortion ellipse. Further, it is preferable that the lower portion of the main body 1 is formed in a liquid-tight manner by the side surface 3 and the bottom surface 4, so that liquid filth falling from the glove can be prevented from flowing out of the main body portion 1.

The side peripheral surface 3 is formed by a front side peripheral surface 3a, a rear side peripheral surface 3b, a left side peripheral surface 3c, and a right side peripheral surface 3d, and the side peripheral surfaces 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d are inward of the main body 1. It is preferable to form the see-through portion d1 within a range surrounded by an imaginary line so that almost the entire region can be seen through from the front, rear, left and right.
A through hole a1 is provided in the upper surface 5, and an annular covering member 7 formed of a rubber material or a resin material is attached to the outer peripheral edge thereof. A hook member 9 for securing the upper end of the elastic member 8 is fixed to the inside of the upper surface 5 near the left end.

In the glove support portion 2, the two support rods 16 and 16 are arranged horizontally and in parallel, and the length thereof is about 200 mm. Spacers 19 are disposed on the left and right ends of each support bar 16, and a top plate 15 is disposed on the four spacers 19.

Each columnar expansion / contraction body 17 includes a guide member 20 fixed upright on the upper surface 5 of the main body 1 by screwing a nut onto a male screw 17a projecting from the lower surface of the columnar expansion / contraction body, and a vertical displacement on the guide member 20 The guided member 21 is held so as to be held, and the compression spring 22 is disposed in the guiding member 20 and constantly biases the guided member 21 upward. The upper end portion of the guided member 21 of each columnar expansion / contraction body 17 supports the corresponding portion of the support bar 16, and the top is fixed by the male screw 23 screwed into the female screw at the upper end portion of the guided member 21 from the upper side of the top plate 15. The plate 15, the spacer 19, and the support bar 16 are integrally coupled.

Here, by temporarily removing the four male screws 23 and removing the top plate 15 and all the spacers 19, these male screw members 23 are screwed into the female screws at the upper end of the guided member 21 again. The two support rods 16, 16 may be used as the support rod 16 by being integrally joined to the upper ends of the four guided members 21 in the absence of the top plate 15 and the spacer 19. In this case, one end of the outer peripheral surface of the dressing port e <b> 3 is received by the one support rod 16, and the other end is received by the other support rod 16. FIG. 6 shows the glove support 2 having such a structure.

Referring to FIG. 4, a resistance applying portion 10 is formed in the main body 1 so as to prevent upward movement by sandwiching the front and rear surfaces of the fingertip of the glove 101 received by the glove support 2 from both sides. The resistance applying unit 10 includes a glove holding plate 11, a flap 13 that holds an operating claw 12, an elastic member 8, and a stopper 14.

The glove holding plate 11 is formed by bending a flat plate material, and is formed in a state where a horizontal plane portion 11a, an inclined plane portion 11b, and an upright plane portion 11c are continuous in the front-rear direction c1. The glove holding plate 11 is formed by bending each end edge portion 11d in the left-right direction c2 at a right angle, abutting the end edge portion 11d on the corresponding left and right side peripheral surfaces 3c, 3d, and fixing with bolts or screws. Yes.
The inclined plane part 11b has an inclination angle θ1 with respect to the horizontal plane of approximately 35 degrees, and the second inclined plane part 11c has an included angle θ2 with the inclined plane part 11b of approximately 138 degrees. Therefore, the upright plane portion 11c has an inclination angle θ3 of about 77 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane. The flat surface portion 11c has a lower end edge that is located on the left side by several millimeters from the center of the through hole a1 in the front-rear direction c1 of the main body portion 1. The rear surface of the flat surface portion 11c is a place where the back side of the fingertip e1 (FIG. 9) of the finger covering portion of the glove 101 is brought into contact.

A flap 13 is arranged corresponding to the glove holding plate 11. The flap 13 is formed by bending a flat plate as shown in FIG. 7A, and the right and left side edges 13a and 13b are bent at a right angle to give the entire rigidity, and the flat surface 13c is made to have left and right side edges 13a. , 13b. Long holes f1 and f1 for mounting the rotation restricting members 24 and 24 so as to be adjustable in the front-rear direction c1 are formed at the left and right end portions on the front side of the flat surface portion 13c, and at the rear end portion of the flat surface portion 13c. Four through-holes f2 are formed in the rear peripheral surface 3c of the main body portion 1 so as to be swingably engaged via two hinges 25 and 25 (see FIG. 1). The front end portions of the left and right side edge portions 13a and 13b are projected to the front side of the plane portion 13c, and a through hole g1 for mounting the operating claw 12 is formed in the projected portion. Yes. The flap 13 has a pair of left and right hinges in which the flat surface portion 13c is arranged in an inclined shape so that the flat surface portion 13c is parallel to the bottom surface 4 and falls forward, and the front end portion of the flat surface portion 13c is attached to the front peripheral surface 3a of the main body portion 1. 25 and 25 are screwed through through-holes f2 and f2, and are mounted so as to be swingable about the left and right axis 25a of the hinges 25 and 25.

The left and right side peripheral surfaces 3c and 3d of the main body 1 are provided with stoppers 14 and 14 for restricting the upward swing of the flap 13, and an urging force for swinging the flap 13 upward is applied. In order to do this, the lower end of the elastic member 8 in the stretched state is hooked on the locking portion h1 (see FIG. 7) formed on the left end edge of the flat portion 13c of the flap 13. The elastic member 8 pulls the flap 13 toward the glove holding plate 11 so that the interval is narrowed. In a state where no external force is applied, the flap 13 maintains a posture in which the flap 13 is pressed against the stopper 14 and locked upward as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 8, the operating claw 12 provided at the tip of the flap 13 is a rod-like body having a corner portion Q and a subsequent surface portion P in a cross-sectional shape, and has a lateral support shaft 27 facing left and right. Yes. In this example, two commercially available large and small square tube members 26a and 26b are laminated on the inside and outside, and a laterally supporting shaft 27 is inserted at the center position and fixed integrally. The operating claw 12 is positioned between the front end portions of the left and right side edge portions 13a and 13b of the flap 13, and the left and right ends of the lateral support shaft 27 are freely rotatable in the through holes g1 and g1 of the left and right side edge portions 13a and 13b. It is inserted like this. The operating claw 12 has a length that covers almost the entire range between the left and right side edge portions 13a and 13b, and the length of one side of the quadrangle in the cross section is, for example, 13 mm. A rubber material or a resin material, sandpaper having a rough surface, or the like is applied in a thin layer on the outermost outer peripheral surface of the square bar-like portion 25 in order to suppress slipping on the glove 101.

At the left and right ends of the flat surface portion 13c of the flap 13, there are rotation limiting members 24, 24 for limiting the rotation of the operating claw 12 around the lateral support shaft 27 as shown in FIGS. It is fixed so that the position change in the front-rear direction c1 can be adjusted via a screw tool 24a inserted therethrough. In the illustrated example, the rotation limiting member 24 is a plate member bent in a bowl shape, and the angular range in which the operating claw 12 can be rotated by adjusting the front-rear position thereof is 90 depending on the relationship with the outer peripheral shape of the square bar-shaped portion 26. It can be set to an arbitrary size within the degree range. As the amount by which the fixed position of the rotation restricting member 24 is moved to the rear side increases, the operating claw 12 moves away from the rotation restricting member 24 and the turnable amount increases. The limit position on the arrow direction i1 side of the rotation range of the operating claw 12 is the corner of the operating claw 12 when the flap 13 is restricted from swinging upward by the stoppers 14 and 14, as shown in FIG. The part faces the upright flat surface part 11 c side of the glove holding plate 11. The minimum separation distance between the operating claw 12 and the flat surface portion 11c when reaching this position does not exceed the maximum size at which the finger covering portion e1 of the glove 101 can be clamped between the flat surface portion 11c and the operating claw 12. Keep it like that. On the other hand, the rotation restricting member 24 allows the operating pawl 12 to rotate about 20 degrees in the arrow direction i1 with respect to the surface of the flat surface portion 13c, and on the other side of the arrow direction i1, rotates about 35 degrees. Is allowed (FIG. 8). Therefore, the entire rotatable angle range is approximately 55 degrees.

Next, a glove 101 used for the glove attaching / detaching apparatus 100 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 shows the glove 101, A is a front view partially showing a cross section, and B is a side view.
The glove 101 is a thick rubber glove. A resin-made reinforcing ring e2 is fitted into the wearing opening e3 of the glove 101, and is set in a state of being opened to a size that can be received by the outer peripheral edge of the through hole a3 of the top plate 15.

  The material of the glove 101 is determined according to the purpose of use, and any material such as a rubber material, a synthetic resin material, or a cloth may be used. A metal ring may be used as the reinforcing ring e2.

Next, a usage example of the glove attaching / detaching apparatus 101 and the operation of each part will be described. FIG. 10 is an explanatory view showing a usage example of the glove attaching / detaching device 100.
First, with the hand fitted on the glove 101, the glove 101 is inserted from above the glove support portion 2 into the through hole a3 of the top plate 15 with the wearing opening e3 facing upward. The outer peripheral surface of the dressing opening e3 is received by the outer peripheral edge of the through hole a3 (FIG. 10A).

Further, when a lowering pressure is applied to the glove 101 and inserted, the glove support part 2 is lowered, and the fingertip e1 of the finger covering part of the glove 101 is raised to the upright flat part 11c of the glove holding plate 11 and the flap 13. Between. This insertion operation can be easily performed because it is an operation of expanding the flat portion 11c. By this insertion operation, the operating claw 12 is pushed downward by the fingers in the glove 101, and thus swings downward together with the flap 13 around the left and right axis 25a (FIG. 10B). On the other hand, at this time, the spring 22 of the glove support portion 2 moves downward and stores upward biasing force.

Furthermore, when the glove 101 is inserted, the glove support part 2 is lowered and the fingertip e1 of the finger covering part of the glove 101 is lowered to a position beyond the corner Q of the operating nail 12 (FIG. 10C).
After reaching the state shown in FIG. 10C, the finger inserted into the glove 101 is pulled upward without being bent greatly. The glove 101 is pulled up by the pulling force of the spring 22 of the glove support portion 2, whereby the flap 13 is rotated by the pulling force of the elastic member 8 so as to narrow the gap between the flat portion 11 c around the left-right axis 25 a. The corner portion Q of the operating claw 12 is gradually brought into contact with the fingertip e1 of the finger covering portion of the glove 101 whose rearward movement is restricted by the upright planar portion 11c of the glove holding plate 11. Proximity to. In addition, the operating claw 12 rotates around the support shaft 27 and the surface portion P following the corner portion Q is pressed between the surfaces of the fingertip e1 of the finger covering portion of the glove 101 with the flat surface portion 11c (see FIG. 10D). Note that the fingertip of the hand is not clogged at the tip of the fingertip e1 of the finger covering portion, and since there is a degree of freedom to escape, even the fingertip of the hand is not pinched.

The glove 101 is in a state of being urged in the pulling direction by the spring 22 of the glove support 2, and the frictional force further increases because the gap between the operating claw 12 and the flat surface part 11c acts in a narrowing direction. The rotation is restricted when the lifting force of the glove support 2 and the reaction of the glove 101 are balanced. Under this state, fingers in the glove 101 are smoothly extracted from the glove 101. FIG. 10C shows the situation at this time.

The removed glove 101 is supported by the glove support part 2 on the outer peripheral surface of the wearing opening e3, and the fingertip e1 of the finger covering part is caused by the elasticity of the elastic member 8 and the elasticity of the glove 101 itself to the flat part 11c of the glove holding plate 11. And the flap 13 are maintained.

When wearing the glove 101 remaining on the glove attaching / detaching apparatus 100 as shown in FIG. 10C, a finger is inserted into the glove 101 through the wearing opening e3. In this case, when the finger is inserted halfway up to the fingertip e1 in the finger covering portion of the glove 101, the operating nail 12 and the flap 13 are swung downward around the left and right axis 25a by the finger, and the plane portion 11c The operating nail 12 is separated from the finger by a sufficient distance. In this separated state, the finger is pushed down to the fingertip e1 in the finger covering portion, and at the same time, the operating nail 12 and the flap 13 are swung downward with the finger in the glove 101, and the glove 101 and the glove 101 are temporarily held. The finger inserted therein is pulled up above the top board 15. If the glove 101 is pulled up so that the back surface of the glove 101 does not hit the flat surface portion 11c, it is avoided that a large resistance is applied without being pinched by the flat surface portion 11c and the operating claw 12. The glove can be taken out from the glove attaching / detaching device 100 while wearing the glove without touching the outer surface.

According to the present embodiment, the wearing opening e3 is in a raised state due to the upward biasing force stored in the glove support 2. On the other hand, the fingertip e1 in the finger covering part of the glove 101 is sandwiched between the flap 13 and the glove holding plate 11. In this state, as the glove 101 is pulled up, the glove 101 is fixed and the hand is removed because the fingertip e1 is further rotated between the glove holding plate 11 around the left and right axis 25a. It becomes easy.

Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, the corner portion Q of the operating nail 12 abuts on the glove 101 and rotates, and the fingertip e1 of the finger covering portion of the glove 101 is formed by the surface portion P and the flat surface portion 11c following the corner portion Q. Therefore, even when oil stains such as grease are attached to the glove 101, it can be securely inserted. In addition, the corner | angular part Q of the action | operation nail | claw 12 does not need to be an acute angle, and may produce the trigger for the fingertip e1 to be caught. For example, it may be chamfered.

In the above embodiment, the glove holding plate 11 is fixed in the main body 1, but is not limited to this, and may be swung within an allowable range according to the flap 13. Further, the hinge 25 of the flap 13 may be fixed to, for example, the inner front portion of the upper surface 5 without being fixed to the rear peripheral surface 3d. Moreover, in the said Example, although the pulling-up force by the spring 22 of the glove support part 2 was utilized, the fingertip e1 in a fingernail part hold | maintains the flap 13 and the glove only by the force with which the flap 13 was provided to the elastic member 8. It can be sandwiched between the plates 11.

In addition, the through holes a1 and a3 may not be distorted ellipses but may be circular, and in this case, the form of the wearing opening e3 of the glove 101 is also adapted thereto.
In the above embodiment, the case where the right hand glove 101 is attached / detached has been described. However, the glove attaching / detaching apparatus 100 similarly supports the left hand glove 101 by changing the direction of the glove 101 and supporting it on the glove support unit 2. Detachable. Further, when it is desired to attach and detach the left and right gloves 101 and 101 at the same time, two glove attaching / detaching devices 100 are prepared and arranged and used on the left and right.
