Abstract
The present invention is directed to a glove that provides protection for the fingernails of the wearer without reducing the flexibility in the remainder of the glove or reducing the wearer's manual dexterity or sense of touch. The glove comprises protector pads positioned in the fingernail regions on the inside of the glove to prevent the fingernails from contacting and rubbing or chafing against the inner surface of the glove. The protector pads can be made of a soft or smooth material so as not to scrape, abrade or otherwise damage the nails.
Description
- This application claims priority to Canadian Patent Application No. 2,676,341, filed Aug. 21, 2009, which application is incorporated by reference herein.
- The present invention relates generally to gloves, and more particularly to gloves with protector pads positioned in the fingernail regions of the glove to protect a wearer's fingernails. The protector pads provide protection for the fingernails without reducing the flexibility in the remainder of the glove or reducing the wearer's manual dexterity.
- A person's fingertips and fingernails are susceptible to damage when performing manual tasks. Some types of manual work can be particularly hard on the fingers and fingernails. These can include, for example, gardening, yard work, cleaning, household chores, home repair and renovations, and moving furniture and other large or heavy objects. Therefore people often wear protective gloves to protect their hands, fingers and fingernails. However, existing gloves can still damage the fingernails of a wearer. For example, the inner surface of the glove can rub and chafe against the nail thereby scratching, abrading or chipping the nail. Such damage is particularly undesirable where the wearer wishes to preserve a coating of nail polish or the effects of a manicure.
- Most existing protective gloves do not provide specific protection for the wearer's fingernails. However, even the gloves that do provide additional fingernail or fingertip protection suffer from a number of drawbacks. In some gloves, the additional protection is located on the outer surface of the glove. Although some protection is provided, such exterior protection does not prevent the fingernails of the wearer from rubbing or scraping against the inside surface of the glove. In other gloves, the protection is positioned on the inside of the glove. However, in some gloves this protection fails to protect the delicate surface of the fingernails. In other gloves, the internal protection substantially or completely encases the fingertip, which reduces the flexibility of the glove fingers and the wearer's manual dexterity.
- It can therefore be appreciated that a need exists for a glove that provides protection for the fingernails without reducing the flexibility in the remainder of the glove or reducing the wearer's manual dexterity or sense of touch.
- The present disclosure provides a glove that addresses the problems described above. In particular, the present glove comprises protector pads positioned in the fingernail regions of the glove to protect a wearer's fingernails. The protector pads prevent the fingernails from contacting the inner surface of the glove and also provide an additional layer of material to protect the nails. The protector pads can be made of a soft or smooth material so as not to scrape, abrade or otherwise damage the nails, and to provide a protective cushion for the nails. The positioning of the protector pads in the fingernail regions of the glove provide protection for the nails without reducing the flexibility in the remainder of the glove or reducing the wearer's manual dexterity.
- In one aspect, the present disclosure is directed to a glove, comprising a palm portion, a back portion, a plurality of flexible finger stalls extending outwardly from the palm and back portions, each finger stall having an inner surface, an outer surface, and a fingernail region, and protector pads disposed in the fingernail region of the finger stalls, the protector pads having a contact portion that is exposed to a wearer's fingernail and is positioned and dimensioned to prevent a wearer's fingernail from contacting the inner surface of the glove.
- The present disclosure will be better understood having regard to the drawings in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the back side of one embodiment of the glove; -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the palm side of the embodiment shown inFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3A is a sectional side view of one of the finger stalls of at least one embodiment of the glove; -
FIG. 3B is a sectional side view of one of the finger stalls of the embodiment shown in -
FIG. 3B with a wearer's finger inserted; -
FIG. 4 is a sectional top view of one of the finger stalls of at least one embodiment of the glove; and -
FIG. 5 is a sectional side view of one of the finger stalls of another embodiment of the glove. - The present glove is described in one embodiment in the following description with reference to the Figures.
