An embodiment'of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view of the pad showing'the hand in dotted lines,such view being partly broken away. v a I Figure 2 is a transversesectional view on the line 22 ofFigure 1.
Figure 3 is. a view of the preferred form of fastener on the back of the hand.
Referring to the drawings, it will be seen that the pad is provided with a backing 1 which may be of rubber,leather, or other substantial material. This backingis secured to an absorbent pad 2. The'pad is preferably formed from sponge rubber and isrelatively thin, as compared with its width or length.
Preferably, the pad is of roughly heart shape, or of triangular shape, with the apex pointing away from the thumb,and with'the base pointing towards the thumb.
If the back is formed of rubber it is preferably vulcanized to the sponge rubber pad so that the back and'pad form together a single rubber member. If a leather or other type of back is used, it maybe secured to th pad by waterproof cement.
Threestraps 3, igand 5 extend outwardly i from the, three corners of the'triangular or heart-shape leather backing 1, such backing being preferably provided with tabs at its apexes which are securely stitched'to the ends of'the straps.
