Definitions
- the present invention relates to a disposable, pre-formed protective liner for the skin of the palm, and more specifically, a pad with an adhesive layer that adheres to the palm of the users' hand, with extensions fitting between the fingers of the user, to prevent abrasive rubbing and the formation of hot-spots and blisters.
- the protective liner is well suited for activities that involve holding an item or handlebar for long periods of time, and especially useful in overcoming the problem with conventional gloves, which typically slip and abrade against the surface of the skin.
- Absorbent and protective liners are a well-known addition to gloves, and often worn beneath a rubber or scratchable types of gloves. Additionally, endurance automobile, ATV, motorcycle and bicycle riders often require supplemental palm padding, to more comfortably hold handlebars and steering wheels, for extended periods of time. Construction, lumber and sanitary service jobs, or any material handling occupation, often require padded gloves or glove liners. Certain padded liners use velcro around the wrist and the thumb to improve grip or prevent the liner from slipping on the hand. To prevent unwanted movement of the liner, bulky finger rings or loops are sometimes employed in these existing palm pads, to ring around the middle fingers of the hand and hold the pad in place. These rings are bulky and can prevent the user from wearing a tightly fitted glove over the ring-fitted pad. Furthermore, adding a bulky ring or fastener to the liner increases the likelihood of rubbing and blistering from the ring or fastener, itself.
- a new system for a less bulky protective liner for the palm is needed that better secures a padding onto the palm, without the need for bulky fasteners, rings or loops.
- the present invention solves these prior problems, by providing a uniquely improved, simple and efficient protective liner. The aspects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from consideration of the following figures and description.

Abstract
A protective liner for the skin of the palm, specially suited for the prevention of blisters resulting from many activities that involve holding an item or handlebar for long periods of time, such as riding all types of ATV's, motorcycles, bicycles, and all various types of hand-tools, to overcome the problem of conventional gloves constantly slipping back and forth against the surface of the skin, slowly abrading and rubbing until a blister forms. The protective liner can be disposable, and used with gloves or various grips. The protective liner includes an adhesive pad with three stringers and two or three extensions. The pad adheres to the pad on the palm of the user's hand and the adhesive stringers fit between the fingers of the user. The adhesive extensions then wrap around the outside of the palm and secure the stringers against the back of the user's hand.
Description
- The present invention relates to a disposable, pre-formed protective liner for the skin of the palm, and more specifically, a pad with an adhesive layer that adheres to the palm of the users' hand, with extensions fitting between the fingers of the user, to prevent abrasive rubbing and the formation of hot-spots and blisters. The protective liner is well suited for activities that involve holding an item or handlebar for long periods of time, and especially useful in overcoming the problem with conventional gloves, which typically slip and abrade against the surface of the skin.
- Absorbent and protective liners are a well-known addition to gloves, and often worn beneath a rubber or scratchable types of gloves. Additionally, endurance automobile, ATV, motorcycle and bicycle riders often require supplemental palm padding, to more comfortably hold handlebars and steering wheels, for extended periods of time. Construction, lumber and sanitary service jobs, or any material handling occupation, often require padded gloves or glove liners. Certain padded liners use velcro around the wrist and the thumb to improve grip or prevent the liner from slipping on the hand. To prevent unwanted movement of the liner, bulky finger rings or loops are sometimes employed in these existing palm pads, to ring around the middle fingers of the hand and hold the pad in place. These rings are bulky and can prevent the user from wearing a tightly fitted glove over the ring-fitted pad. Furthermore, adding a bulky ring or fastener to the liner increases the likelihood of rubbing and blistering from the ring or fastener, itself.
- A new system for a less bulky protective liner for the palm is needed that better secures a padding onto the palm, without the need for bulky fasteners, rings or loops. The present invention solves these prior problems, by providing a uniquely improved, simple and efficient protective liner. The aspects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from consideration of the following figures and description.

The palm includes apalm pad 24, which is a portion of the hand on the palm of the user, proximate to the fingers. Additionally, the hand includes abackside 25, opposite to the palm, as shown inFIGS. 3 , 4 and 5. The protective liner, for use with a typical adult sized hand, can be cut from a square of material measuring approximately nine inches by nine inches, depending on the desired pad size, and length of the stringers and extensions. - The term “approximately” is used herein to refer to a range of values or relative orientations, understood by a person skilled in the pertinent field or skill, as being substantially equivalent to the herein stated values in achieving the desired results, a range typical to the accuracy and precision of conventional tooling, instrumentation or techniques, or a functionally equivalent range of features that produce equivalent results to those described herein.
- A preferred material for the
protective liner 15 is a breathable adhesive coated tape material, employing a lightweight fabric for thepad 17, approximately one-sixteenth of an inch in thickness, which is coated on one side with a latex free, synthetic elastomer adhesive, simply referred to herein as anadhesive layer 27, selected for excellent initial adhesion along with a low increase in adhesion over time, with excellent cohesive strength and clean removal from skin, without residue or skin trauma. A most preferred material for the protective liner is the Tan Moleskin Products type of adhesive coated tape material, specifically product numbers 54-9004T and 55-1250T, as manufactured by Jaybird & Mais, Inc., of Lawrence, Mass., USA. The ‘Jaybird’ brand of moleskin tape material employs a cotton fabric thepad 17, which is coated on one side with a latex free, synthetic rubber based adhesive for theadhesive layer 27, selected for superior tack qualities, with excellent cohesive strength and clean removal from skin, without residue or skin trauma. Preferably, a protective film 29 is applied over the adhesive layer. In the preferred Jaybird moleskin tape material, this protective film, also referred to herein as a “release liner,” is a white silicon film. - Alternatively, any moleskin or similar type of material could be employed for use as the material for the
pad 17 of theprotective liner 15, with a suitable skin adhesive as theadhesive layer 27, together selected to suit the environment and rigors of use, particular to the intended implementation of the protective liner. - Preferably, the
pad 17 of theprotective liner 15, with the aid of theadhesive layer 27, adheres to thepalm pad 24. Thestringers 18 and the extensions 19 are strips of theprotective layer 15. With thepad 17 on the user's palm pad, the stringers fit between thefingers 23 of the user. The extensions then wrap around the outside of thehand 20 and secure the stringers against thebackside 25 of the user's hand. - For a preferred embodiment of the
pad 15,FIGS. 1L and 1R show theprotective liner 15 in its left-handed liner 15L andright handed liner 15R embodiments, for attachment to the left and right hands, respectively. Alternatively, in a more preferred embodiment of the pad,FIGS. 7L and 7R show theprotective liner 15′ in its left-handed liner 15′L andright handed liner 15′R embodiments, for attachment to the left and right hands, respectively.

Namely, the stringers can include afirst stringer 18A, asecond stringer 18B, and athird stringer 18C. Each of the stringers extends from the pad of the protective liner and terminates at aterminal end 40. - As shown in
FIG. 3 , thefirst stringer 18A is shaped to fit between thefirst finger 31 and thesecond finger 32. The term “shaping” is used herein to denote cutting, stamping, pressing, or otherwise forming thepad 15 and associatedadhesive layer 27 into the desired shape as exemplified inFIGS. 1L and 1R , or alternatively aspad 15′ in 7L and 7R. A die cutting press is a preferred method for shaping the pad into the desired form for use, as is well known fo use in the quick and efficient cutting of heavier weight materials. Electric or pneumatic fabric cutters are also known and an industrial automated laser cutting tool is also a possible cutting tool. - Just as the
first stringer 18A is shaped to fit between thefirst finger 31 and thesecond finger 32, thesecond stringer 18B is shaped to fit between the second finger and thethird finger 33. Similarly, thethird stringer 18C is shaped to fit between the third finger and theforth finger 34. - As also shown in
FIGS. 3 and 4 , the extensions 19 include afirst extension 19A and asecond extension 19B. The extensions are similar to thestringers 18 in form, but preferably wider relative to the stringers, to better tighten across thehand 20 of the user. The first extension is shaped to fit between theindex finger 31 or “first finger,” and thethumb 35 or “fifth finger.” Similarly, the second extension is shaped to fit between thepinky finger 34 or “fourth finger,” and thewrist 21 of the user. - More preferably, as introduced above, the
third extension 19C is also included, as shown in relation to thehand 20 of the user, and again is preferably similar to thestringers 18 in form, but preferably wider relative to the stringers, to better tighten across the hand. The third extension is shaped to fit between thethumb 35 or “fifth finger” and thewrist 21 of the user, as shown inFIGS. 8 and 9 . - A preferred method of using the
protective liner 15 includes the initial selection of the proper sized and handed protective liner, which is preferably the left-handed liner 15L ofFIG. 1L or 15′L ofFIG. 7L , or the right-handed liner 15R ofFIG. 1R or 15′R ofFIG. 7R . As discussed above, the protective liner includes the protective film 29 on theadhesive layer 27, and removing the protective film or release liner, serves to release or enable adhesion of the protective liner onto thepalm 22 of the user. The release liner is peeled off and the protective liner is centered within in thepalm 22 of thehand 20 of the user, as shown inFIG. 3 . - With the
protective liner 15 in this preferred centered position, the threestringers 18 extend between thefingers 23 around to thebackside 25 of the hand through the gaps between the fingers. - Specifically, the first stringer is placed between the
first finger 31 and thesecond finger 32, thesecond stringer 18B is placed between the second finger and thethird finger 33, and thethird stringer 18C is placed between the third finger and theforth finger 34. - Additionally, as shown in
FIG. 3 , thefirst extension 19A hangs through the gap between theindex finger 31 and thethumb 35. On the opposite side of thehand 20, thesecond extension 19B hangs over the side of the hand, between thepinky finger 34 and thewrist 21 of the user. - As shown in
FIG. 4 , the threestringers 18 are tightly secured and adhered to thebackside 25 of thehand 20. Most preferably, the stringers are pulled down tightly, so there are no wrinkles in the stringers, and theadhesive layer 27 sticks the stringers evenly and securely to the backside of the hand. - The extensions 19 may now be adhered to the
backside 25 of thehand 20, as shown inFIGS. 4 and 5 . Most preferably, thesecond extension 19B is first pulled tight across the backside of the hand, preferably while rubbing the protective liner smooth across thepalm 22, until there are no wrinkles in thepad 17. As detailed inFIG. 4 , the second extension is then pulled across the backside of the hand and pressed down over the terminal ends 40 of all threestringers 18. - After adhering the
second extension 19B to thebackside 25 of thehand 20, as shown inFIG. 5 , or alternativelyFIG. 8 for the embodiment with thethird extension 19C, thefirst extension 19A is pulled tight across the backside of the hand, again while preferably rubbing the protective liner smooth across thepalm 22, until there are no wrinkles in thepad 17. As detailed inFIGS. 5 and 8 , the first extension is then pulled across the backside of the hand and pressed down over the terminal ends 40 of all threestringers 18, - Finally, as shown in
FIG. 8 for the alternative embodimentprotective liner 15′, which includes thethird extension 19C, this third extension is then pulled across thebackside 25 of thehand 20, and pressed down. -
FIG. 6 shows theprotective liner 15, or alternativelyFIG. 9 for theprotective liner embodiment 15′ with thethird extension 19C. Both FIGs detail thehand 20 of the user, with thepad 17 of theprotective liner 15 securely adhered to thepalm 22. The user can rub out and initial wrinkles, to achieve a smooth adhesion of the protective liner, and then place the hand and protective liner into a glove or use the protective liner without the glove, as needed. - For the above preferred methods of the invention, the order of applying the various extensions 19 and
stringers 18 to thehand 20 of the user are not deemed critical to the invention, as any order would likely achieve the desired protective function of theprotective liner 15 or alternately 15′. However, the above detailed method of first applying the stringers, and then wrapping the various extensions, is most preferred. - Having now described my invention, to those persons skilled in the art to which it pertains, it may become apparent that the need to make modifications without deviating from the intention of the design as defined by the appended claims.
