- Still yet a further object of the invention is to provide an improved glove or mitten with a zippered access opening provided in the thumb portion to allow the wearer to remove the thumb without removing the rest of the glove or mitten.
- Still yet another object of the invention is to provide an improved glove or mitten with a hook and pile access opening provided in the thumb portion to allow the wearer to remove the thumb without removing the rest of the glove or mitten.
- Still other objects and advantages of the invention will, in part, be obvious and will, in part, be apparent from the specification.
- The invention accordingly comprises the features of construction, combinations of elements and arrangements of parts which will be exemplified in the construction as hereinafter set forth, and the scope of the invention will be indicated in the Claims.
- For a fuller understanding of the invention, reference is had to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
- FIG. 1A is a perspective view of a cell phone glove constructed in accordance with a first preferred embodiment of the invention;
- FIG. 1B is a perspective view of the construction of the thumb of the glove of1A;
- FIG. 1C is plan view of the thumb of the liner of the glove of FIG. 1A;
- FIG. 2A is perspective view of a cell phone glove constructed in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the invention;
- FIG. 2B is a perspective view of the construction of the thumb of the glove of2A;
- FIG. 2C is plan view of the thumb of the liner of the glove of FIG. 2A;
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a wearer using a cell phone glove in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention with the opening in its open position and the wearer's thumb extending outwardly through the insulation and outer shell to access and use a cell phone;
- FIG. 4 is a top plan view of the construction of the shell thumb in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the invention;
- FIG. 5 is a top plan view of the shell of a cell phone glove in accordance with the preferred embodiment of FIG. 4;
- FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the lining of a cell phone glove in accordance with the preferred embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 5;
- FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the construction of the lining thumb in accordance with the preferred embodiment of FIGS. 4, 5 and6; and
- FIG. 8 is a top plan view similar to FIG. 4 with the flap open.
- Reference is first made to FIGS. 1A, 1B and1C wherein a cell phone glove, generally indicated as 100 constructed in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention is depicted. As seen if FIG. 1A,
Cell phone glove 100 includes athumb portion 101 with azipper 102 which controls the opening to the inside of the glove. As best seen in FIG. 3, the opening, when unzipped, provides the wearer with access of the thumb through theinner insulation layer 200 through aslit 201 in opening 202. The location of the opening 202, best seen in FIG. 3, is positioned at a location which does not interfere with the use of the glove when the zipper is closed, as shown in FIG. 1. On the other hand, when the opening 202 is open, the thumb is easily placed outside of the opening to allow appropriate access and use of a cell phone or other electronic device like a personal data assistant or wireless e-mail device. While the invention is particularly suited to the use of access through the thumb, similar access can be provided for other fingers as may be needed for specialized usages. Generally, the thumb access is the preferred embodiment. FIG. 1B shows just the thumb portion of the glove and the way in which the zipper is situated on the thumb. This location is one which would not ordinarily affect any normal use of the glove when thezipper 102 is zipped close.Section 107, which is attached toSection 108 overlies the upper portion ofzipper 102 so that thepull member 109 ofzipper 102 is partially covered so that it doesn't inadvertently get in the way or interfere with the use of theglove 100 when zipped. FIG. 1C shows theslit 201 ininsulating layer 200 which allows the thumb to extend outside of the glove when thezipper 102 is opened, providing access to the opening 202. In the preferred embodiment the insulation opening is a slit which keeps the insulative properties of the glove intact for the rest of the wearer's hand. When the user is finished using the cell phone or other device the thumb is easily pulled back within the opening and through theslit 201 ininsulation 200. Then, thezipper 102 is moved to the closed position and the opening is sealed to provide good insulation. Generally, as shown in FIG. 1, theseam 110 of the outer shell ofthumb 101 covers the zipper so the zipper is not generally exposed and better insulative characteristics are provided for the thumb. - Reference is next made to FIGS. 2A, 2B and2C, wherein a second
cell phone glove 300 constructed in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the invention is depicted. Like elements are represented by like reference numerals. The difference between the embodiment of FIG. 2A and the embodiment of FIG. 1A is the location and access of the opening. Whereas the embodiment of FIG. 1A includes apartial flap section 107 covering over thezipper 102 so that the zipper is hidden when not in use, in the embodiment of FIG. 2, thezipper 302 controlling access to the opening in the glove and zipper pull 309 are exposed and generally more accessible. As seen,Sections zipper 302. Rather, it is open and exposed. Depending upon the construction requirements and access needs, either approach may be utilized. - FIG. 3 shows the glove of the embodiment of FIG. 1A in use, as described above, with the
thumb 10 extending out of the opening 202 in the shell and throughslit 201 in the insulating layer. As can be seen, when thethumb 10 extends outwardly, the portion of the thumb notoutside glove 100 is kept warm by the way in which slit 201 grips the sides of thethumb 10 so there is a limited ability of the outside air to gain access to the inside of the glove. Also, the opening in the shell, 202 is bigger than theslit 201 so that the user has more flexibility to move thethumb 10 around and manipulate the buttons on thecell phone 50 or other device without restriction. However, when one is finished with the need for thethumb 10 to be exposed and free from the glove, it can be easily withdrawn through opening 202 and slit 201 before being rezipped and returned to the original condition of FIG. 1A with the entire hand inside theglove 100. Otherwise, the remainder of the glove or mitten may be made in conventional fashions unless a similar system is indicated to release one or more other fingers from the glove for selective use outside without removing the glove. - Reference is next made to FIGS. 4, 5,6 and 7 wherein a
cell phone glove 500 in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the invention is depicted. Rather than using a zipper as in the prior embodiments, a velcro® hook and pile system is utilized. Other types of closure mechanisms can be used in connection with the system. As seen in FIG. 4 which is the construction of the shell thumb,thumb 501 has apanel 550 attached over an opening inthumb 501 held in place by stitching 554 which is only on the right edge ofpanel 550 so that thepanel 550 can rotate about the stitching when pulled open by pulling onhandle 553. As shown in FIG. 8, which shows thepanel 550 pulled back all the way open, a condition that is not necessary for access, but is shown for ease of explanation.Panel 550 is rotated open, releasinghook connectors 560 on the inside surface ofpanel 550adjacent handle 553 frompile connector 561, which is formed in a u-shaped section, and surrounds aflap 562 which fills the inner portion of theu-shaped connector 561. A small slit, 563 is formed between the edge offlap 562 and the attached side ofpanel 550, which allows the user's thumb to emerge from within the glove. This provides a double sort of gasket system, with the lining having one system and this shell having a second. - As seen on FIG. 5, the
thumb 501 has the apparatus for opening the thumb away from the surfaces of the glove which are used with the glove on. The surface picked is one which is both away from contact usually made when wearing a glove and the gripping surfaces of the hand, but one easily accessible to the thumb to slip out of the glove and then access a device which can be activated or used with a thumb. While only a single glove is shown, it is contemplated that both gloves would have a similar access for the thumb. - Reference is next made to FIG. 6 wherein the lining of the glove is shown and FIG. 7 wherein the piece used to make the lining for the thumb are shown.
Thumb piece 571 has aslit 575 shown with a dotted line as it would not be visible underflap 572 which is sewn in place around a portion of the top, left side and portion of the bottom byseam 573. When a user inserts his thumb through the slit from within the glove, which would be from the bottom of FIG. 7,flap 572 would move so the thumb of the user would push the right side of the flap up and away from theslit 575 and allow the thumb to continue up through the opening in theshell 501. The flap helps keep the heated air on the inside of the glove and the rest of the wearer's hand warmer, particularly when added to the warming effect ofpanel 562 which tends to keep cool air from coming through when the thumb is pushed out of the opening in the shell. - While the preferred opening is on the side of the thumb stall, it can, in other preferred embodiments, be moved in different locations along the periphery of the thumb to allow access depending upon the appropriate application.
- An important element of the invention is the method of egress from the lining as highlighted in FIGS. 1C, 2C and3. This access through the lining has the benefit of minimizing the effect of the opening structure and hardware on the user's thumb when it is in the inside of the glove and also limits the access of the cold air to the inner portion of the hand when the thumb extends through the slit in the opening.
- While the examples shown in the drawings are gloves and not mittens, the relevant elements of the invention reside in the thumb region and not the fingers, except for applications where another finger or additional finger besides the thumb requires removal without taking off the glove or mitten. The thumb assembly can be utilized with any glove construction and is not limited to the examples shown.
- Accordingly, an improved cell phone glove or mitten providing direct access of the thumb to an electronic device such as a cell phone, personal data assistant or wireless e-mail device is provided.
- It will thus be seen that the objects set forth above, among those made apparent in the preceding description, are efficiently obtained and, since certain changes may be made in the above constructions without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense.
- It is also to be understood that the following claims are intended to cover all of the generic and specific features of the invention, herein described and all statements of the scope of the invention which, as a matter of language, might be said to fall therebetween.
