Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention relates to a baseball glove, and its purpose is to improve safety by protecting the fingers, which are most susceptible to injury from the impact of catching a ball. .

(Prior Art) A known baseball glove is made up of a combination of a ball-catching surface skin in which each finger shape is formed, a back skin into which the fingers are inserted, and a core body, but the core body is mainly used to maintain the shape of the glove. Because of this, the core must be built into the little finger, passing from the thumb to the lower part of the palm, and the three phalanges of the index, middle, and ring fingers must be easily bent at the joints to facilitate ball catching. Generally, the core body was not built into the area where these fingers were located. Therefore, the index and middle fingers that catch a ball under strong pressure often become swollen and painful, making it difficult to catch the ball repeatedly.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Therefore, this invention is intended to eliminate such drawbacks.

(Example) A finger-shaped protector 3 formed of a synthetic resin sponge with a flexible thin plate core 4 interposed in the index finger joint region 2 of the lining 1 constituting a baseball glove.
This is a baseball glove characterized by the fact that

The means for applying the protector 3 may be either adhesive or sewn to the lining 1, or may be covered with an outer skin. It is also effective to apply to the middle finger and ring finger.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, this invention allocates a protective body 3 with a flexible thin plate core 4 interposed in the index finger joint area 2 of the back skin 1 into which the finger is inserted, so that the index finger can be inserted. Then, since the protector is located on the inner surface of the finger, even if there is no core between the ball-catching surface skin and the back skin, it exerts the effect of buffering the ball-catching pressure, prevents swelling of the finger, and reduces pain. When bending the joint of the finger during a ball-catching action, the protector 3 with the flexible thin plate core 4 interposed causes a slight sense of discomfort, but the protector 3 is made of synthetic resin sponge, and the thin plate core 4 is flexible. Because it has flexibility, it will not bend naturally due to the pressure of catching the ball and will not interfere with catching the ball. Furthermore, the protector 3
If the ball is made of a low-foam synthetic resin sponge with little elasticity, the ball will not bounce when caught. Especially,
Since the flexible thin plate core body 4 is interposed in the protective body 3, it is possible to prevent the fingers from bending or pointing due to the pressure of catching a ball.

Thus, the baseball glove of this invention is highly safe and useful.
