Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a work glove which is not only flexible and excellent in workability and various functionalities, but also exhibits excellent aesthetics and excellent discrimination.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, work gloves have been made of rubber, vinyl chloride resin, polyurethane resin, or a base material glove such as knitted knitting proposed by the inventors has been coated with polyurethane resin or the like. Work gloves and other work gloves with excellent functionality have been devised and provided in various ways.

[0003]

However, since all of these work gloves are focused on improving work efficiency, they are improved in oil resistance, cold resistance, flexibility, moisture permeability or wearing feeling. It was intended to pursue such functionality, and work gloves that pursued aesthetics were not known. That is,
Conventional work gloves have the same shape in all products, and all known color gloves such as blue, green and pink are monochromatic, let alone decorated. The thing was not known, and it was inferior in distinctiveness without individuality. Therefore, the conventional gloves will be confused when they want to use them according to work type, department, or individual, and they are misused, causing safety, hygiene, or management problems. was there. Conventionally, work gloves with a pattern have not been known, unlike work gloves, work gloves are considered to have no side face such as decorations, and are made exclusively for the purpose of improving work efficiency.
It was thought that it was sufficient to write the use and name with oil-based magic ink as a method of identifying gloves. In addition, work gloves are usually made of synthetic resin coating such as rubber or vinyl chloride resin, so even if a decorative pattern is applied to the surface of the gloves, the durability of the pattern will be poor and the pattern will bleed with solvent. It is considered that there was a problem of durability that the pattern was worn out if it flowed or was roughly used during work.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, not only to have various functionalities as a work glove, but also to have excellent aesthetics and also to have excellent distinguishability. And to provide a manufacturing method thereof.

[0005]

The above objects can be achieved by the present invention described below. That is, the present invention is a working glove and a method for producing the same, in which a continuous coating film made of a transparent or translucent polyurethane resin or rubber is formed on the surface of a cloth-patterned base material glove.

[0006]

As a result of various studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors provided a decorative pattern on a cloth such as a knitted fabric in advance by means such as printing or printing, and formed a base glove from the cloth. After soaking the base material glove in water and substituting the air in the base cloth with water, soaking the base material glove from the fingertips to the cuffs in a polyurethane resin solution or a rubber solution dissolved in a water-soluble solvent If you create a glove by pulling it up and removing the solvent, polyurethane resin etc. will precipitate from the solution on the surface of the base glove at the same time as it is immersed, preventing excessive impregnation of the resin solution etc. into the base glove. Since a continuous transparent or translucent synthetic resin coating is formed on the surface of the base glove, the base synthetic glove does not impair the flexibility and feel of the base glove, The decorative pattern on the material gloves flowed Worn or are protected without functional not only design work gloves excellent in durability was completed by finding the present invention to be provided.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to preferred embodiments. The working glove of the present invention is characterized in that a base film made of a patterned base cloth is provided with a continuous coating of transparent or translucent polyurethane resin or rubber on the surface thereof. As the base fabric used in the present invention, natural fibers such as cotton, as long as it is possible to form a decorative pattern on the surface by means of printing or printing,
Any of woven fabrics and knitted fabrics made of synthetic fibers such as polyester, polyamide, acetate, and polyacrylic can be used. Further, the base cloth may be a woven cloth or a knitted cloth made of a yarn obtained by mixing these natural fibers and synthetic fibers. Particularly preferred in the present invention is a woven fabric made of cotton or a blended yarn of cotton and synthetic fiber such as polyester fiber in consideration of flexibility, strength, breathability and wearing feeling of the gloves provided. Alternatively, it is a knitted fabric, more preferably a knitted base fabric made of these yarns.

As a method for applying a pattern to the preferable base cloth as described above, any of the conventionally known methods can be used. For example, a pigment-printing ink or a dye-printing ink is used for a knitted base cloth, and a silk screen is used. It is also a preferred embodiment that a desired pattern is applied by printing or gravure printing, or a pattern is formed by sublimation transfer on a knitted base fabric made of polyester and cotton mixed yarn. The patterned base fabric thus obtained is cut into an appropriate handprint and then sewn to form a base glove. The decorative pattern provided on the base glove may be provided on a part of the upper part of the base glove as shown in FIG. 1 (a), or as shown in FIG.
It may be provided on the entire base material glove. Further, the pattern may be any pattern, but it is also a preferred embodiment that the pattern expresses the work content.

In the present invention, a transparent or semitransparent continuous coating layer made of polyurethane resin or rubber is formed on the surface of the base glove formed as described above. The polyurethane resin used in the present invention Any of known materials can be used as the material. Particularly preferred polyurethane resins are light-resistant polyurethane resins or elastomers using aliphatic polyisocyanates as polyisocyanates, and hydrolysis-resistant polyurethane resins or elastomers using polyester polyols or polycarbonate polyols as polyols. As the rubber used in the present invention, any known rubber can be used, but transparent or translucent rubber such as polyurethane elastomer, acrylic rubber, silicone rubber, etc. is preferably used.

The work gloves of the present invention are manufactured by the following preferred methods. For example, the polyurethane resin or rubber as described above is dissolved in a water-soluble organic solvent suitable for dimethylformamide, methyl ethyl ketone, or other polyurethane resin to a concentration of, for example, 5.0 to 25% by weight, and then the polyurethane is first prepared. An organic solvent solution of resin or rubber is prepared. After the above-mentioned base material glove with a decorative pattern is impregnated with water, this is appropriately squeezed to replace the air in the cloth with water. Next, put the base material gloves wet with water on the hand mold, and slowly immerse it in the organic solvent solution of polyurethane resin or rubber above with your fingertips, taking care not to let the resin solution enter the inside of the gloves. While fully impregnating the cuffs, pull up and dry at the place where the liquid runs out.
After performing this treatment one or more times to sufficiently evaporate the solvent and form a transparent or semi-transparent coating made of a polyurethane resin or rubber having a desired thickness on the surface of the patterned base glove,
The work gloves of the present invention having a cross section as shown in FIG. 1 (b) are obtained by releasing from the hand mold.
