UNITED STATES PATENTS 10/1967 Stubbs 273/54 B 10 Claims, 5 Drawing Figures BOWLING GLOVE This invention is directed to a bowling glove wherein the front panel is provided with a pocket for receiving spring means. The spring means is preferably quadrantshaped with at least one concave surface. The spring means is compressed while the bowling ball is held. At the time of thumb release, the spring means expands to accelerate the bowling ball with overspin.
Details with respect to the major portion of the glove may be conventional. A preferred type of glove is disclosed hereinafter. The preferred type of spring means is quadrant-shaped in elevation and V-shaped in cross section so as to have quadrant-shaped legs. The legs are connected together by hinge means and each leg is preferably concave on its major face with the radius of curvature of each leg preferably equating that of a bowling ball, namely about 4 to inches. Each major face of the legs of the spring means may be provided with a cushioning pad made from hard rubber or the like.
The use of bowling gloves having cushioning members associated therewith is known. See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,031,680; 3,123,832; 3,421,160; 3,564,613; 3,581,312; and 3,606,319. However, none of these patents teach or suggest the use of a compressible spring means which is expanded at the time of thumb release to aid in acceleration of the bowling ball.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel bowling glove.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a bowling glove wherein a front panel is provided with spring means for accelerating the ball at the time of the thumb release.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a bowling glove having replaceable spring means so that spring means of different strengths may be substituted for one another depending upon the weight of the ball being utilized.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a bowling glove having discharge or acceleration means while being structurally interrelated in a manner which is simple, reliable, and economical to manufacture.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
For the purpose of illustrating the invention, there are shown in the drawings forms which are presently preferred; it being understood, however, that this invention is not limited to the precise arrangements and instrumentalities shown.
FIG. 1 is a rear elevation view of the glove of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a front elevation view of the glove with the hand of the wearer shown in phantom.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line 33 in FIG. I, with a bowling ball shown in phantom.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the spring means shown in FIG. 3 but partly broken away for purposes of clarity of disclosure.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of another type of spring means in accordance with the present invention, and partially broken away for clarity of disclosure.
Referring to the drawing in detail, wherein like numerals indicate like elements, there is shown in FIG. 1 a bowling glove in accordance with the present invention designated generally as 10. The bowling glove is shown in rear elevation in FIG. 1 and in front elevation in FIG. 2.
The glove 10 includes a front panel 12 and a rear panel 14. If desired, the rear panel 14 may be provided with a knit fabric insert 16. The front and rear panels 12 and 14 are joined together in any convenient manner with one or more seams 18. The front and rear panels 12 and 14 may be made from a wide variety of materials and preferably are made from a polymeric plastic material simulating leather and coated with knited fabric on their inner surface. Such materials enable the glove to be sold at a reasonably low price. More expensive materials could be used if desired.
If the rear panel 14 is provided with a fabric insert 16, the same are joined together by the stitching 17. The insert 16, when made from a knitted fabric, provides comfort, an amount of stretch satisfactory to accommodate the different positions of the person's hand during bowling, and provides for a satisfactory amount of air flow to the hand to prevent undesired sweating of the hand. In place of the insert 16, the rear panel 14 could be provided with a large number of perforations.
At the intersection of the front and rear panels 12 and 14 there is provided a thumb opening 20. The thumb opening 20 is located so as to have a major portion thereof in the front panel 12. If desired, the elastic strip 22 may be stitched to the inner surface of the upper edge of the front panel so as to provide gathers 24.
The insert 16 is provided with a notch 26 extending downwardly from the upper edge. The notch is defined by binding stitched thereto. A strap 28 has one end joined to the binding and extends across the notch 26. The free end of strap 28 may be secured in any convenient manner but is preferably adjustable by the use of Velcro strips 30. In this manner, the glove may be adjustable to accommodate the hands of different sized persons.
The front and rear panels 12 and 14 are open at the top and bottom. At the bottom edges, the panels 12 and 14 are provided with finger holes 32, 34, 36 and 38. A knitted fabric strip 40 is stitched to the lower edges of the front and rear panels 12 and 14 to delineate finger hole 34 from finger hole 32. A similar strip is provided to delineate finger hole 34 from finger hole 36 and a similar strip 43 delineates finger hole 36 from finger hole-38.
A pocket panel 42 is stitched to the inner surface of front panel 12 by stitching 46 thereby defining a pocket 44 therebetween. As shown in FIG. 2, the upper edge may be sewn to panel 12 when it is desired to permanently secure panel 42 to the panel 12. The upper edge of panel 42 is preferably releasably connected to the panel 12 in any convenient manner such as by snaps 48 as illustrated in FIG. 3. In place of snaps 48, other equivalent devices could be utilized such as a button and buttonhole, Velcro strips, etc.
A spring means 50 is disposed within the pocket 44. As shown more clearly in FIGS. 2 and 4, the spring means 50 is quadrant-shaped in elevation whereby it represents approximately one-quarter of a circle. As shown more clearly in FIG. 3, the spring means 40 is V-shaped in cross section and provided with legs 52 and 53 of spring steel. I have found that the legs may be made from spring steel having a thickness of about 0.02 inch.
The legs 52 and 53 of the spring means 50 are mirror images of one another. Each leg 52, 53 is concave with the radius of curvature being approximately 4 to 5 inches so as to correspond generally to the radius of a bowling ball. A hard rubber pad 54 is secured to the leg 52 in any convenient manner such as by use of adhesive. A similar pad 56 is attached to the major face of leg 53.
The bight portion of the spring means 50 is provided with a notch 58 so as to define hinges 60 and 62 at opposite ends thereof. The bight portion of the spring means 50 is straight and disposed at an acute angle of approximately 5 to with respect to the horizontal as shown more clearly in FIG. 2. The thusly described disposition of the spring means 50 is attained by the shape and location of the pocket 44 which in turn is defined by the stitching 46.
The glove 10 is shown in FIG. 3 juxtaposed to a pcriphery of a bowling ball 74. When the glove 10 is worn, and the wearers fingers enter the holes in the bowling ball 74, the spring means 50 is collapsed against the heel of the palm of the wearer. When the ball is released and the thumb withdrawn from the thumb-hole of the bowling ball 74, spring means 50 expands and accelerates the bowling ball 74 off the tips of the fingers of the wearer with overspin.
In FIG. 5, there is disclosed a spring means 64 which may be substituted for the spring means 50. Spring means 64 requires less pressure in order to be collapsed and hence would be used with a lighter weight ball. Spring means 64 is similar to spring means 50 in that it is generally quadrant-shaped in elevation, and V- shaped in cross section. A rubber pad 70 is secured to the concave face of leg 66 and a similar pad 72 is secured to the concave face 68.
The spring means 64 differs from the spring means 50 in the following respects. There is no notch at the bight of the spring means 64. Also, the legs 66 and 68 are made from a polymeric plastic instead of metal. If desired, it is possible to attain a spring means requiring a lighter weight to collapse the same by using thinner metal than 0.02 inch. That is, it is not necessary to resort to the use of plastics for interchangeable spring means.
As will be apparent from FIG. 3, the pocket 44 is larger than the size of the spring means 50. Thus, it is necessary to provide a pocket of sufficient size so as to accommodate the spring means in its open disposition as shown in H6. 3.
The curvature of the legs of the spring means 50 and 64 provides for a successful contact between the palm and the ball, relieves excessive thumb pressure on the ball in addition to the acceleration and overspin. While the size of spring means 50, 64 may vary, I prefer to use the same wherein the bight has a length of about 2-54 inches. While the pads 54, 56, 70, 72 may be made from various materials, I prefer to use hard rubber about one-eighth inch thick.
The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof and, accordingly, reference should be made to the appended claims, rather than to the foregoing specification as indicating the scope of the invention.
