Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] A. Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a protective device for gloves for motorcycles, which is created primarily for use in motorcycles, and in particular for the purpose of protecting wrist joints.

More specifically, when a motorcycle falls and the palm of the hand touches the road, a highly elastic shock absorber such as urethane foam is installed to protect the wrist joint. In this case, the protective device for motorcycle gloves has a wedge-shaped cross-section tapered toward the palm side so that the incident angle can be increased to reduce impact.

B. Prior Art Conventionally, in motorcycle gloves, there has been no device that protects the wrist joints in particular.

However, as a method to prevent the leather on the palm surface from being damaged when the palm surface touches the ground, a leather patch is attached to the wrist side of the palm, but this method prevents damage to the glove and reduces the frequency of use. It is nothing more than an exercise.

C. Problems to be Solved by the Invention Conventionally, when a motorcycle falls over, the usual way to deal with damage to the palm side is to apply a leather patch as described above to this important point.

However, in the event of an actual fall, applying a leather patch will not prevent the leather on the palm side from tearing, and reuse is often impossible.In addition, the blow to the wrist joint in particular is extremely large and dangerous. It is something.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention reduces the impact of falls on the palm and wrist joints.
The following measures were adopted to increase the durability of the gloves and increase the frequency of use.

D. Measures to solve the problem At the joint between the glove body A and the lower sleeve B (commonly known as the "kabura"), the palm side of the wrist joint is shaped to cover the joint and taper toward the palm side. A cushioning body C having a wedge-shaped cross section with a surface T formed thereon is attached.

E. Effect Since this invention employs the above-mentioned means, the wrist joint portion of the glove is constructed with a raised portion forming a downwardly tapered surface toward the palm side.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, when the palm contacts the road surface, the incident angle θ1 of the present invention with a buffer body is clearly compared to the incident angle θ2 of the conventional glove shown in FIG. In this case, the incident angle θ1 is larger than θ2, and the wrist joint is more protected against ground contact than a conventional product without a shock absorber.

Specifically, since the palm-side contact surface makes secondary contact with the ground due to the raised body constituted by the buffer, the impact upon contact with the ground is reduced, and damage to the palm-side contact surface can be reduced.

Next, the rear end surface of the cushioning body is connected to the sleeve of the leather suit, and the palm, wrist, and sleeve become one with the lower armrest, thus increasing the ground contact area.
The impact received from the blow is dispersed.

Further, by installing a large number of rivets on the surface of the cushioning body, the impact caused when the glove touches the ground becomes sliding friction and the impact is alleviated, and at the same time, the rivets can prevent damage to the gloves.

F. Example A motorcycle glove is a combination of a glove body A made of leather and consisting of five fingers, and a bottom cover B (commonly known as a ``kabura''), and the joint is located approximately at the joint of the wrist. A highly elastic cushioning material C such as urethane foam is sewn into the portion.

The shape of the buffer C has the required thickness, approximately 10 mm to 20 mm.
It is made wide enough to cover the joint area, and has a downward taper T toward the palm side, giving it a wedge-shaped cross-section.

The taper T is formed to have a shallower angle on the surface T than on the back side T'.

By wearing the buffer C, the wrist portion of the glove is raised.

A large number of metal rivets D are implanted on the sewn-in surface to which the buffer body C is attached.

The rivet D has a diameter of about 5 mm and a thickness of about 5 mm.

In the figure, E denotes the cuff of the leather suit, and F denotes an opening/closing fastener attached to one side of the lower leg part B, which opens and tightens the cover to the lower leg part.

G. Effects of the invention Since this invention is constructed as described above, firstly, the wrist joint is protected even in the event of a fall of the motorcycle.

Second, since the cushioning body has a wedge-shaped cross section and tapers downward toward the palm side, when making contact with the ground, the angle of incidence is larger compared to gloves without a cushioning body, and as a result, the contact of the palm surface with the cushioning is larger. The body will contact the ground secondarily, reducing damage to the leather surface on the palm side.

Thirdly, the rear end of the shock absorber contacts the suit cuff and is pressed down by the lower girdle, so the palm, wrist, and sleeve are integrated, and the ground contact area is widened, so the impact from contact with the ground is dispersed.

Fourth, since a large number of metal rivets are implanted on the surface where the shock absorber is attached, upon contact with the ground, the impact becomes sliding friction, which reduces the impact and at the same time prevents damage to the contact leather portion.
