Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July *7, 1914.
Application filed January 12, 1914. Serial No. 811,577.
To all whom t may concern.' f
Be it known that l, WILLIAM E. SELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county of Stark and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Glove, of which the following is a speciiication.
My invention relates to improvements in gloves and while applicable to many forms of gloves is especially adapted for use on baseball gloves and the like, said gloves sometimes being called mitts, and being usually padded on the palm side of the hand.
The objects of the invention are, to generally improve gloves of the character irentioned, to provide a secure retaining device for holding the glove upon the hand, said device combining strength and durability with neatness and simplicity, and while adapted to retain its proper position, being at the same time flexible and comfortable to the wearer. These objects, together with other objects readily apparent to those skilled in the art, may be attained by the construction illustrated in the accompanying drawings, although the invention may be embodied in other forms, the lconstruction illustrated being chosen by way of example.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a rear view of a baseball glove embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view through the glove and wrist pad, taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Throughout the several views similar reference numerals indicate similar parts.
More specifically describing the construction disclosed in the said drawings, the numeral 1 indicates the palm, the numeral 2 the padding and the numeral 3 the back of the glove proper. The palm 1 and back 3 are arranged to include the said padding between them, the parts of the glove being preferably connected around the edges by the lacing l in order that the padding Q may be removed when desired for the purpose of repair or insertion of new padding. On the back 3 is arranged the hand pocket 5 which may be of any well known construction.` Said hand pocket 5 does not extend entirely to the wrist line, lout is out away at 6 leaving the wrist free at the back except for the retaining pad hereinafter described. Extending backwardly and inwardly from the side edges of the glove are the lateral wrist flaps 7 and 8 which extend around the sides of the wrist, the rounded edge 9 extending across the back 3 at the wrist line, around the rear margins of said flaps 7 and 8 and thence around the margin of the hand pocket 5 to form the edge of the wrist opening.
ln the use of gloves of the character described it is of importance that the same be firmly held in place at the wrist and that the wrist-engaging retainingdevice be adjustable for various possible wearers of the glove. To accomplish the proper retention of the glove upon the hand it is important that. the wrist flaps 7 and 8 be drawn toward each other in order to closely vengage the wrist at the sides and as the said vflaps are drawn toward each other it isevident that their inner edges will assume varying positional relations, making it necessary to provide a connecting device .for said wrist flaps which will autou atically and naturally adjust itself to the varying positions of said flaps. Accordingly, I provide `a wrist pad having an inner, soft, flexible, substantial, pad-like lining 10 and an outer back 11, also of flexible material, such as thin leather, but adapted to supportthe lining 10 and give the same sufficient body to retain its shape. Both the lining 10 and back 11 are preferably of elongated, oval design of a length sufiicient to extend somewhat beyond the inner edges 9 of the wrist flaps. The lining 10 extends beneaththe wrist iap 8 while the back 11 extends above said iiap. Intermediate the ends of the back 11 the strap aperture 12 is provided through which a strap 13, preferably somewhat longer than the wrist pad extends. The portion of the strap 13 on the inner side of the yback 11 extends to and over the outer side of the flap 8, lying between said flap and theback 11, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 2. Stitching 1i extends through the back 11, strap 13, {iap 8 and lining 10 lixedly connecting said parts with relation to each other. Said stitching also extends around the margins of the back 11 and lining 10 to connect the same. Adjacent the aperture 12 stitching 15 is also employed to connect the back 11, strap 13 and lining 10. From the aperture 12 the free end of the strap 13 extends transversely toward and beyond the free end of the wrist pad and is provided with buckle apertures 16.
Upon the outside of the wrist flap 7 is connected a buckle 17, which is preferably ying both the lining 10 and back 11 extends.
l Copiesof this patent maybe obtained for ve cents each, by f Washington, D. C.
however, by the connection of the of the strapv 13 is adapted to be connected to said buckle kon the outside of: the flap` 7, while the free end of the wrist pad, includbeneath said Hap 7, as more clearly illus trated in Fig.'2.
It will be noted that the wrist pa'd being fixedly connected at one end to the flap 8 will be substantially free to assume slightly varying angular positions with reference to the fla-p 7 in accordance with the various adjustmcnts of the strap 13 and buckle 17, being suiiiciently supported and heldin place, strap 13 with said wrist pad intermediate the ends thereof, It will also be noted that the lining 10 constituting, as hereinbefore described, a lsubstantial pad-like member, extends under the edges of bothof the wrist flaps, and that beneath the wrist flap 7, on which the buckle'17 is arranged, the wrist pad, including the back 11 extends, thus giving added protection beneath that portion of the flap 7. most likely to produce chaling or other injury to the wrist. It should be further especiallyv noted that the wrist pad is adapted to serve almost exclusively as a pad, the strain of connection between the iiaps 7 and 8 being carried ahr-.ost entirely by the strap 13 which, it will be noted, extends entirely from one wrist flap to the other.
Inuse, when the strap 13 is drawn upto retain the glove upon the hand the pad-like lining 10 will extend `entirely across the back of the wrist from side to side, giving'a smoo'th,continuous surface adapted to engage the wrist in the various, rapid and energetic movements of the wearer withoutr -impeding such movements or producing a chafed or otherwise 4uncomfortable condition. A l
Although the drawings andthe above speciiication disclose "the best mode in which I )have contemplated embodying my invention, Idesire to be not limited to the details of such disclosure, for many changes in form and construction may be made as circumstances require or experience suggests without departing from the spirit ofthe invention within the scope vof the appended claim. I claim c f In a glove provided with "a hand pocket having a cutaway portion providing a back wrist opening and'lateral wrist flaps atvthe sides of said opening, means for retaining 'the glove on the hand,` comprising awrist pad, a buckle and a strap, said wrist ypad comprising an inner, soft, `flexible lining member and an outer back member1 both of a length adapted to extend beyond the inner edges of said wrist iaps, said lining and said outer back member ixedly connected to and including between them one oi"l said lateral wrist aps, said strap extending".
through an aperture in` said outer backv ber and back member, extending beneath one ofsaidlateral wrist flaps. l
In testimony that I claim the above, vI
have hereunto subscribed ymy name in the presence of two witnesses.
