Abstract

PURPOSE:To grip securely without being slipped even in case of light grasping and to protect the palm of a hand or a glove by attaching a sponge-shaped piece to a part, to which grasping power is loaded in a condition to grasp an object. CONSTITUTION:Glove main bodies 1 and 1' for golf are made of cowhide, ram skin or synthetic leather. Then, thumb parts 2 and 2', other four fingers parts 3 and 3' and wrist parts 4 and 4' are wholly made of the same material as the main body. A sponge piece 5 of a large area and a sponge piece 6 of a small area are attached to a back side to correspond to the palm of the hand with a suitable interval. Sponge pieces 7 and 8 of the small area are attached to root of thumbs and other four fingers. These sponge pieces 5-8 are wholly arranged in the part, to which the grasping power is loaded when the handle of a club is grasped. Then, those sponge pieces are the synthetic resin sponge such as polyurethane rubber foam, etc. The thickness of the sponge is at degree of 1.5mm and the sponge is adhered with adhesive before sewing.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a sports glove, such as a golf glove, which can strengthen the grip during use.

[Conventional technology]

Golf gloves are made of supple and durable leather to avoid slipping when gripping a club, and are mainly used as gloves for the left hand only and gloves for both hands.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The surface of modern club grips is made of synthetic leather, which becomes slippery after repeated use and becomes slippery when gripped with gloves on. In order to avoid slipping, you must apply a strong grip, but this puts pressure on your shoulders and can easily cause fatigue. Also, blisters and calluses develop on the palms of the hands due to strong rubbing through the gloves.

Gloves also have a problem in that the parts that require a lot of grip, especially the parts that hit the palms and pads of the thumbs, tend to wear out quickly and become punctured.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide golf gloves or sports gloves that can be gripped firmly without slipping even when squeezed lightly, and that can protect the palms and gloves. There is a particular thing.

[Means for Solving the Problem] In order to achieve the above object, the glove of the present invention has a sponge-like structure on the back surface (inner surface) of the glove where grip force is applied when gripping an object while wearing the glove. This can be achieved by gluing the pieces together.

Note that the parts on which gripping force is applied when gripping an object are a part of the palm and the pads of the five fingers from the palm.

[Function] When gripping an object, the sponge-like piece becomes a flexible elastic body at the part where the grip force is applied, bringing the glove into close contact with the surface of the object and doubling the grip force. As a result, a sufficient grip can be obtained even when gripping with a weaker force than usual, and the palm and the fabric of the glove body can be protected at the same time without slipping.

〔Example〕 · Examples will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a golf glove and is a surface view of the left hand side thereof.

Reference numeral 1 indicates the part of the glove body made of cowhide, sheepskin, or synthetic leather, which corresponds to the back of the hand. 2 is a thumb part, 3 is the other four finger parts, and 4 is a hand neck part, all of which are made of the same material as the main body.

FIG. 2 is a back view of the glove shown in FIG. 1 with the palm turned inside out.

1' is the part of the glove body that corresponds to the palm.

2' is the thumb, 3' is the other four fingers, and 4' is the wrist.

5 is a large-area sponge piece, and 6 is a small-area sponge piece, which are attached to the back surface of the hand at appropriate intervals.

F to 8 are small-area sponge pieces that are pasted across the thumb and the joints near the bases of the other four fingers.

Each of these sponge pieces 5 to 8 is arranged at a portion where grip force is applied when gripping the handle of a club while wearing gloves. In other words, the greatest force is applied to the part of the hand that faces the thumb in a clenched state, and the sponge piece 5 with a wide area is provided in this part.

The finger joints near the base of each floor are the parts where the grip force of the fingers is strong.

The sponge on the palm is separated into a large area portion 5 and a small area portion 6, making it easier to grip.

The above sponge pieces are made by cutting out or punching out a synthetic resin sponge such as polyurethane rubber foam with a thickness of about 1.5 days into an appropriate shape and gluing it to the back of the glove (before stitching) with an organic adhesive. It is.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it produces the following effects.

(1) By installing a sponge on the back of the glove where gripping force is applied, the elasticity of the sponge increases the adhesion to the surface of the object when gripping it, doubling the effect of gripping and gripping it lightly. This will give you a strong grip.

(2) The presence of a soft sponge between the skin of the hand and the club protects the gloves and hands, preventing the gloves from wearing out or causing blisters or calluses on the hands.

(3) Since the thickness of the sponge is only about 1 to 2M, no foreign body sensation occurs during use.

(4) By attaching the sponge to the back of the glove, unlike when it is attached to the front surface, it does not spoil the appearance and is difficult to peel off.

(5) The sponge absorbs sweat, making it possible to play even in rainy weather.

The present invention can be applied to gloves for sports other than golf gloves, such as gloves for tennis, skiing, and mountain climbing.

The present invention can also be applied to work gloves.

In particular, it can be expected that safety will be extremely high when used with gloves for work at dangerous heights, where people cling to robes.
