Description
- This patent application claims the benefit of and priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-103600, which was filed on 28 Apr. 2010, and is incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth below in its entirety.
- Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to protective batting gloves and more particularly to anti-shock batting gloves for use in baseball, softball, and other activities where protective covering is desired.
- The history of America's pastime can be traced back to the 18th century. Baseball (and softball), has greatly evolved since the 18th century and is now an extremely popular sport among men and women. Synonymous with the evolution of baseball has been the evolution of baseball equipment.
- Traditional baseball and softball equipment consisted solely of a bat, a ball, and a glove to protect a defending player's hand and facilitate in catching the ball. Today, baseball and softball players use specialized equipment to enhance performance and protect from the potential dangers the game presents.
- Most baseball and softball bats have limited shock absorbing properties. The shock resulting from the impact of the bat hitting the ball is passed to the batter, thus increasing the impact to the hands. This impact can cause injury to a batter's hand. The impact can also cause injury to the lower part of the palm, as the heel of the bat is usually shoved into the lower part of the hand after the impact. A rotational momentum can also be imparted to the bat upon contact with the ball, which causes the bat to exert force across and around a batter's hand, specifically through the area between the thumb and the index finger. In light of these issues, there has been an increased demand among players for batting gloves that provide hand protection to baseball and softball batters.
- Many attempts have been made in designing batting gloves to protect against injury. There is still a need, however, for batting gloves that further protect against hand injuries. Specifically, there is a need for batting gloves that successfully protect against the shocks, vibrations, and rotational forces encountered during batting. Embodiments of the present invention are to such gloves.
- Embodiments of the present invention provide anti-shock batting gloves. Some embodiments can receive a thumb and forefingers of a hand, comprising a dorsal side for covering a dorsal side of the hand, and a palmar side for covering a palm of a hand. The palmar side comprises a plurality of detached finger pads adapted to limit shock encountered during batting.
- In accordance with some embodiments, the plurality of detached finger pads comprise a palm pad configured to cover a lower portion of a palm of the hand, a first finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal of a pinky finger, a second finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal and a phalange of a ring finger, a third finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal, a proximal phalange, and an intermediate phalange of a middle finger, and a fourth finger pad configured to cover an area between a thumb and an index finger.
- In an embodiment, the first finger pad is substantially diamond shaped.
- In another embodiment, the second finger pad is comprised of a top segment and a bottom segment that are continuously connected. The top segment and the bottom segment can be substantially diamond shaped.
- In yet another embodiment, the third finger pad is comprised of a bottom segment, a middle segment, and a top segment that are continuously connected. The bottom segment, the middle segment, and the top segment are preferably substantially diamond shaped.
- In another embodiment, the fourth finger pad is shaped to cooperate with a curvature between the thumb and the index finger.
- In another embodiment, the plurality of detached finger pads are made of Bio Gel Foam.
- In yet another embodiment, the palm pad, the first finger pad, the second finger pad, and the third finger pad are approximately 3 mm thick.
- In other embodiments, the fourth finger pad is approximately 5 mm thick.
- In another embodiment, the dorsal side comprises one or more fasteners adapted to securely adjust over a batter's hand.
- Some embodiments are adapted to receive the thumb and forefingers of a hand, and comprise a dorsal side for covering a dorsal side of the hand, and a palmar side for covering a palm of a hand. The palmar said of this embodiment further comprises a palm pad configured to cover a lower portion of a palm of the hand, a first finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal of a pinky finger, a second finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal and a proximal phalange of a ring finger, a third finger pad configured to cover a metacarpal, a proximal phalange, and an intermediate phalange of a middle finger, and a fourth finger pad configured to cover an area between a thumb and an index finger.
- A method of manufacturing anti-shock gloves of the present invention comprise the steps of providing a dorsal side of the glove, providing a palmar side of the glove, attaching the dorsal side of the glove to the palmar side of the glove, and disposing a plurality of detached finger pads on the palmar side of the glove.
- In some embodiments, disposing the plurality of detached finger pads on the palmar side of the glove comprises the steps of disposing a palm pad such that it covers a lower portion of a palm of the hand, disposing a first finger pad such that it covers a metacarpal of a pinky finger, disposing a second finger pad such that it covers a metacarpal and a proximal phalange of a ring finger, disposing a third finger pad such that it covers a metacarpal, a proximal phalange, and an intermediate phalange of a middle finger, and disposing a fourth finger pad such that it covers an area between a thumb and an index finger.
