BACKGROUND o 1. Technical Field -

The present invention relates to a disposable glove. More ° specifically, the present invention relates to a disposable © glove that can be easily fabricated, is hygienic, is made of a paper material and thus rarely causes environmental pollution, and can come into stable contact with fingers having various thicknesses. 2. Description of the Related Art

The content described in this section merely provides background information on the present invention, but does not constitute the prior art.

Vinyl gloves used to throw away food garbage have not decayed for hundreds of years, leading to environmental pollution. It is necessary to replace vinyl gloves with paper gloves made of an eco-friendly material in order to meet the trend of providing paper bags instead of vinyl bags at large marts under the active regulation of the use of disposable plastic bags.

Meanwhile, demand for delivery food and street food is increasing rapidly due to the popularization of single-member

Lr households and the increase of dual-income households. However, =” when a person grips and eats oily food, such as chicken, pizza, i. a sugar—-filled Korean pancake, fried food, and so on, by hand = when eating delivery food or street food, he or she will get - oil on his or her hands, which will make him or her feel uncomfortable. In particular, unlike fried food that can be = eaten with chopsticks, chicken or pizza should be eaten with the & thumb and the index finger due to the nature of the food. In - this case, it is necessary to eat food after cleaning a hand with water or a tissue in order to take care of hygiene and personal health. Furthermore, it is not easy to clean a hand while eating food. Accordingly, when a person drinks beverage, such as water, coke, cider, beer, etc., oil is attached to a cup, which is uncomfortable.

In the case of eating oily food by hand, it is inevitably necessary to frequently remove oil from the hand by using toilet paper or a wet tissue. Accordingly, the amount of waste generated increases, and thus resources are wasted and an environment is polluted. Furthermore, even when a person wipes his or her hands with toilet paper or a water towel, the smell and slipperiness of his or her hands cannot be completely removed, and, eventually, should be cleaned with soap in a toilet, which wastes resources.

To solve this problem, in the case of a sugar- filled Korean pancake sold in a street, the sugar-

LAT filled Korean pancake is put into a cup and eaten by using the o cup as a grip or the sugar—-filled Korean pancake is eaten by or using thick paper as tongs. =

For foods which are difficult to eat by using a cup or thick paper because the size and shape thereof are not constant, ” such as chicken, pizza, etc., there is used a method of eating 5 food by using a paper glove. Korean Patent Application o

Publication No. 10-2012-0063303 (published on June 15, 2012, - entitled “Finger Glove”) is a related document.

This document discloses a finger glove which includes a bottom configured to define a bottom portion, a first cover portion formed at one end of the bottom in the longitudinal direction thereof, and a second cover portion formed at the other end of the bottom in the longitudinal direction thereof, in which a dividing line is formed on the cover portion to be adhered to the bottom in the longitudinal direction thereof, in which an advertising portion is formed on the upper surface of the bottom, adhesion points to be adhered to the bottom are formed on the mouth parts of the first cover portion and the second cover portion, in which the center portion of the bottom is configured to be curved such that one side thereof is convex and the other side thereof is concave so as to correspond to an angle formed by the thumb, the index finger and the middle finger, in which a flap is formed on one side of the bottom, and in which reinforcement members made of a material having

Lr large frictional force are formed at both ends of the lower o surface of the bottom in the longitudinal direction thereof. a

The finger glove disclosed in the document can be used in = such a manner as to insert only the thumb, the index finger, and the middle finger thereinto, and, thus, can be easily taken - off. Since it is made of paper and thus has low thermal = conductivity, advantages arise in that the finger glove enables ~ a user to easily hold and eat food by hand and e causes less - environmental pollution than a vinyl glove.

The finger glove disclosed in this document is provided with adhesion points on both sides of the mouth parts into which fingers are inserted in order to solve the problem in which the fingers are easily removed from the finger glove. Accordingly, the finger glove can be made to fit the fingers of a user having slender fingers. However, the finger glove disclosed in this document has a fixed number of adhesion points and the adhesive points at fixed positions. Accordingly, it is not possible to adjust the variable width of the mouth parts according to the thicknesses of fingers. Furthermore, a problem arises in that it is possible to adjust the width of the month parts only when all of the two adhesion points are not adhered, when only one of the two adhesion points is adhered, and when all of the two adhesion points are adhered.
