Description
Dec. 6, E PENNA LADIES GLOVE Filed Aug. 18, 1953 IN V EN TOR.
ERNEST PENNA BY United States Patent O LADEES GLUVE Ernest Penna, lironx, N. Y. Application August 1S, 1953, Serial No. 375,923
2 Claims. (Cl. 2 163) This invention relates to new and useful improvements in gloves and glove constructions.
Primarily, the present invention proposes the construction of an improved glove wherein the wearers fingernails, or structure simulating such nails, will be prominently displayed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a glove with openings to expose the fingernails, said openings having reinforcing portions for supporting protruding tips of the fingernails of the wearer.
Still further, the present invention proposes constructing the slidable fingernail opening covers of transparent, thin, flexible material so that in inclement weather the wearers fingernails can be displayed without uncovering the fingernail openings.
As a further object, the present invention proposes forming the fingernail opening covers in the shape of natural fingernails and providing means so that they can each, individually and interchangeably, be slid into linger opening covering positions and will removably be held in such positions with their front ends extending beyond the tip ends of the finger stalls.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
ln the accompanynig drawings forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. l is a perspective View of a hand covered by a glove constructed and arranged in accordance with one form of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged horizontal sectional View taken on the plane of the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken on the plane of the line 3 3 of Fig. 2, the finger nail being omitted.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary top plan View of a finger stall embodying a modified form of the invention.
Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view taken on the plane of the line 5 5 of Fig. 4.
Fig. 6 is a top plan view of a glove embodying a further modification of the invention.
Fig. 7 is a fragmentary top plan View of one of the finger stalls shown in Fig. 6.
Fig. 8 is a view similar to Fig. 7 but showing the fingernail cover and finger stall spaced apart.
Fig. 9 is an enlarged vertical sectional view taken on the plane of the line 9 9 of Fig. 8.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 3, inclusive, showing the first form of the invention, a glove is shown in position on the hand 16 of the wearer. The glove may be made of leather, fabric or any other suitable glove making niaterial. The glove is formed with the ordinary palm covering or housing portion 17 and with individual stalls 18 for the fingers and a separate stall 19 for the thumb of the wearer.
The finger and thumb stalls 18 and 19, respectively,
fice
each has a back opening 20, adjacent the tip of the stall so as to align with the fingernails 21 of the wearer. The opening 20 is shaped to simulate the shape of a natural fingernail of the wearer and is of about the same size. The Wall structure of the front or pointed end of the opening 20 comprises a stiffening patch 10 of fabric curved at its top end and stitched to the upper end of the material constituting the finger stall thereby forming a loop, bead or piping 11. The rest of the patch lines the material of the finger stall and is secured to said material at its bottom end by stitching 12.
In using the glove, the fingernails 21 of the wearer will be exposed through the openings 20 and the stiff bead or piping portion 11 or a reinforcing cord made of metal, plastic or other stiliening material held in the piping 11, which will afford a stiff but elastcized support for the protruding tips 14 of the fingernails.
ln the modified form of the invention shown in Figs. 4 and. 5, there is no stiffening patch 10 such as shown in the form of the invention illustrated in Figs. 1 to 3, inclusive. Instead the material of the finger stall eXtends upward and over the rear portion of the stall as indicated at 18 and forms the front wall of the opening 20' of the stall.
Each opening 20 may be provided with a cover 22 slidably mounted on its stall. Covers 22 are of thin, stifiiy fiexible material and preferably are transparent. The covers are mounted inside the stalls and are slidable inwardly away from the tip of the stall. A shelf plate 23 is secured to each of the stalls inside thereof, as by stitches 24, and slidably receives the cover 22 between the shelf plate and the back of the stall. The shelf plates 23 each has a bent portion 25 adjacent their rear secured end to provide a rear wall for the cover receiving space 22 and to provide an abutment stop for the covers in retracting them.
Before the wearer puts on glove 15, the covers 22 are slid into finger opening covering position shown in Fig. 5. In this position the wearer can safely put on the glove without the inconvenience and resulting harm to the glove of having fingernails pass out through the fingernail openings 2'6 in the back of the stalls 18 and 19.
After the glove 15 is on, the covers 22 can easily be retracted into concealed position beneath the stalls by sliding them rearwardly into the space 22. ln such po sition, the fingernails of the wearer are exposed to view. In addition, a degree of ventilation is provided.
In all other respects, the form of invention shown in Figs. 4 and 5 is similar to the form shown in Figs. 1 to 3, inclusive, and similar reference characters are used to indicate similar parts.
The modification of the present invention illustrated in Figs. 6, 7, 8 and 9 is characterized by the provision of covers 26 in the shape of lingernails and mounted on glove 27 so that they extend beyond the ends of the finger stalls 28 and thumb stall 29. Glove 27, in addition to the finger and thumb stalls 28 and 29, has a palm housing portion 30.
Cover receiving members 34 are secured to each stall adjacent the back opening 31 therein. Each cover receiving member 34 has track grooves 35 (see Fig. 9) slidably to receive the side locking lugs 32 and 33.
Cover receiving members 34 also have lug seating recesses 36 and beneath each recess 36 is mounted a leaf spring 37 or other resilient member to urge the lugs 3 32 and 33 into the seating recesses 36 and hold them there.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patentis:
l. A glove comprising a palm housing portion and finger and thumb stalls, said stalls being arcuately curved at the tip end and having back openings adjacent the tip ends thereof disposed to align with the fingernails ofthe wearer, a patch of fabric secured to the curved tip end of each of said stalls, lining a portion of the stall, and having a stiff tubular beaded portion around the front of its respective opening for supporting the tip of the fingernail when the iinger is inserted through the opening.
2. A glove comprising a palm housing portion and iinger and thumb stalls, said stalls being arcuately curved at the tip end and having back openings adjacent the tip ends thereof disposed to align with the fingernails of the wearer, a patch of fabric secured to the curved tip end of each of said stalls, lining a portion of the stall, and having a tubular beaded portion around the front of its respective opening, and a stiiening cord in said beaded portion for supporting the tip of the fingernail when the iinger is inserted through the opening.
