Description

The present invention relates to a golf glove, and more particularly to a one-size-fits-all golf glove that expands and contracts according to the size of a golfer's hand and does not hinder the grip.

General golf gloves are available in different sizes in 1 cm increments to accommodate different golfer's hand sizes.

Normally, men's golf gloves are available in 6 sizes of 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, and 26 cm (however, 21 cm and 26 cm are rare). Alternatively, a size notation such as XS / S / M / L / XL may be used, and in this case, it is generally selected from three sizes of S / M / L. Women's golf gloves are also available in three sizes of 18.19.21 cm.

On the other hand, the shape of the human hand varies from long / short, thick / thin, thick / thin, etc., but most golf gloves currently on the market are made in a standard shape. Not all golfers are satisfied with the same size.

Generally, golf gloves are made so that each size has a vertical dimension of 3 mm and a horizontal dimension of 4 mm. That is, by design, the difference between a 22 cm glove and a 25 cm glove is a difference of 12 mm in length and 16 mm in width.

In order to solve the above problems, elastic fabrics that can be expanded and contracted in the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions, and synthetic leather, artificial leather, or natural leather that is less elastic but has better anti-slip properties than elastic fabrics. Golf gloves that are sewn by joining fabrics have been proposed. Patent Document 1 describes a golf glove in which most of the instep side and palm side of the glove body are formed of a stretchable fabric that expands and contracts freely in any of the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions. On the palm side, apply anti-slip thin pieces made of synthetic leather, artificial leather, or natural leather, which are inferior in elasticity to elastic fabric but have good anti-slip properties, to the palm side of the index finger piece, middle finger piece, glove piece, and small finger piece. A golf glove is described in which the elastic fabric is sewn so as to be continuously exposed without interruption from the vicinity of each tip portion to the vicinity of the lower end portion on the wrist side of the glove body.

International Publication WO99 / 55433

The golf gloves described in Patent Document 1 have an excellent effect of being able to cope with slight differences in size and differences in hand shapes such as long / short, thick / thin, and thick / thin.

However, it was not possible to deal with a large difference in size and to make it one-size-fits-all with one golf glove.

In this case, those skilled in the art can easily think that it is possible to make the size free by increasing the ratio of elastic fabric, but in golf gloves, if the ratio of elastic fabric is increased, the hand Even if it fits in the material, it is slippery in terms of material, and there is a problem that it can not secure the grip and cause miss shots, and it is made of synthetic leather, artificial leather, or natural leather with good anti-slip properties. It was not possible to reduce the proportion of leather fabric.

The present invention was created for the purpose of providing a golf glove that solves the above-mentioned problems, and is an elastic fabric that can be expanded and contracted in the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions, and an anti-slip fabric that is inferior in elasticity to the elastic fabric. In golf gloves sewn by joining together leather fabrics made of good-quality synthetic leather, artificial leather, or natural leather, the palm of the glove is divided into three or more areas, and each area is composed of leather fabric. However, the palm part can be expanded and contracted by connecting the above leather fabrics to each other via the elastic fabric or by sewing the above leather fabrics on the elastic fabric arranged on the palm part. To do.

Further, in the invention according to claim 2, in the above-mentioned golf glove, an elastic cloth is arranged from the instep of the glove to the base of each finger, and the elastic cloth is used for the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger. It extends from the base of the back of the finger to the total length of each finger at the tip, and the leather fabric is placed on the remaining part of each finger, which is mainly located on the pad of the finger, and both are sewn together. A notch is provided in the middle of the remaining portion of each of the above-mentioned fingers, and the elastic fabric is sewn into the notch.

Next, a specific embodiment of the golf glove of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 to 8 are views showing a first embodiment of the golf glove of the present invention. The golf gloves G1 of the present invention are made of elastic fabric that can be expanded and contracted in the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions, and synthetic leather, artificial leather, or natural leather that is inferior in elasticity to the elastic fabric but has good anti-slip properties. It is constructed by joining and sewing. Known elastic fabrics include fabrics called two-weight ricottes in which polyurethane is woven together with nylon and polyester, and synthetic leather in which two-weight ricottes are impregnated with urethane resin or laminated with urethane sheets, but are not limited thereto. Of course. As a leather fabric having good anti-slip properties, for example, synthetic leather manufactured by Toray Cortex Co., Ltd. is known, but of course, it is not limited to this.

The greatest feature of the golf glove of the present invention is whether the palm of the glove is divided into three or more areas, each area is composed of leather fabric, and each of the above leather fabrics is connected via the elastic fabric. Or, by sewing each of the above leather fabrics on the stretchable fabric arranged on the palm portion, the palm portion can be stretched and contracted. FIG. 1 is a front view of the palm portion of the glove in which the above-mentioned characteristics appear. Here, the palm portion is divided into three regions of upper and lower three stages from the finger portion to the wrist portion, and each of them is made of leather fabric 1A. It is composed of 1B and 1C. Reference numerals 4A and 4B in the figure are leather fabrics constituting the wrist portion.

In this embodiment, each of the above leather fabrics is connected via an elastic fabric 2 sewn to the outer edge thereof. That is, the elastic fabric 2 is located between the leather fabrics, and the size of the gloves changes due to the expansion and contraction of the elastic fabric.

The golf glove of this embodiment is configured to expand and contract over the entire area of the glove, not just the palm. In that case, the basic idea is to use elastic fabric in places where the grip is not hindered, and to use leather fabric with good anti-slip properties in other places.

The elastic fabric 2 is arranged substantially continuously over the entire area of the glove, and the leather fabric is arranged in an island shape at a place where the elastic fabric is not located. In the front view of FIG. 1 and the rear view of FIG. 2, the elastic cloth 2 is arranged from the instep of the glove to the base of each finger, and the elastic cloth 2 has the index finger and the middle finger, respectively. , The extension portion 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D are extended from the base of the ring finger and the little finger on the dorsal side of the finger to the entire length of each finger at the tip (see FIG. 2). On the other hand, leather fabrics 3A, 3B, 3C and 3D are arranged in the remaining portion of each finger portion where the extension portions 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D, which are mainly located in the finger pad, do not exist (see FIG. 1). It is sewn on elastic fabric. Then, notches A, B, C, and D are provided in the middle of the leather fabrics 3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D, and the elastic fabric is sewn in these notches.

The stretchable fabric 2 is extended from the base of the thumb portion of the glove on the side edge side on the index finger side to the entire length direction of the thumb at the tip to form the extension portion 2E (see FIG. 2). On the other hand, the leather fabric 3E is arranged in the remaining portion of the thumb portion where the extension portion 2E located mainly on the finger pad side, the dorsal side of the finger and the outer edge side does not exist (see FIG. 1), and is sewn on the elastic fabric. Be worn. In this case, a part of the extension portion 2E of the stretchable fabric of the thumb extends like a peninsula to the dorsal side of the finger to form the extension portion E (see FIG. 8).

In the figure, reference numeral S is a slit that is cut from the wrist side end of the instep toward the finger in order to open the golfer from the wrist to the instep when wearing the glove (see FIGS. 2, 7, and 8). .. One end of the wristband 10 having a height close to the entire length of the slit is fixed to one side of the slit S, and the engaging member 11 provided at the other end of the wristband is attached to the instep on the other side of the slit. Is provided with an attached member to which the is attached. The engagement member is arranged at two places above and below the slit, and the upper engagement member 11A is on the leather fabric 5A sewn on the elastic fabric 2 of the instep, and the lower engagement member is on the leather fabric 5A. 11B is sewn on the leather fabric 4B sewn on the elastic fabric 2 on the wrist. Although a hook-and-loop fastener is assumed here as the engaging means, it is needless to say that the fastening means is not limited to that.

According to the wristband 10, the glove is firmly fixed by making the height of the wristband, which has been only a part of the length of the slit so far, close to the entire length of the slit. It becomes possible. On the other hand, the attached members provided on the instep are arranged at two places above and below the slit, and since they are arranged on the stretchable fabric, even if the size of the instep changes due to the expansion and contraction, the distance between the attached members is also large. Since it changes in accordance with it, it is possible to prevent the gloves from wrinkling or shifting at the slit portion.

As described above, in the golf glove of the present invention, the glove expands and contracts by the total dimension of the elongation allowance of each elastic fabric located between the leather fabrics divided and arranged in three or more regions. In, it is as follows.
(1) The elastic fabric 2 located between the leather fabric 1A placed on the palm and the leather fabric at the base of the index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger,
The elastic fabric 2 located between the leather fabric 1A placed on the palm and the leather fabric 1B below it,
The total length of the stretchable fabric 2 located between the leather fabric 1B arranged on the palm and the leather fabric 4A arranged on the wrist extends from 12 mm to nearly 14 mm.
