UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES A. MOORE, OF WESTBROOK, CONNECTICUT.
SCRUBBING KNUCKLE-SHIELD.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 49,291, dated August 8, 1865.
i application and use of vulcanized rubber for a scrubbing knuckle-shield, made in the form of a band or a cot, having its face or the surface rubbed, creased, or reeded, and to be-worn y on the hands while scrubbing or rubbing clothes in washing, and for all other purposes wherein it may be useful in protecting the hands or facilitating labor, which are the objects ot' the invention. By its use in scrubbing clothes on a wash-board it prevents abrasion of the skin and enlargement of the joints, and also the spreading'and enlargement of the hands, and the wearer is enabled to scrub harder and remove the dirt faster and with greater ease than with the naked hands.
The shield is made in molds as other articles of the material are made, and so formed as to lit snugly over the fingers between the first and second joints, and is clasped tightly when thehand is closed. It is an inch and threequarters (more or less) over theface, and about three-sixteenths of an inch thick; but it may be made only an eighth of an inch thick or less. The portion over Which the lingers clasp is about threefonrths of an inch wide and about a quarter of an inch thick, more or less. The edges are rounded when practicable. Y
The shield may be worn on either hand, and it may be reversed-viz., the tngers may enter the small end instead of the large end-and used thus. Its texture should perhapsbe about the medium degree between hard and soft, rendering it slightly elastic. When in use its tendency is to soften a very little only.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The application and use ot' vulcanized rubber for a scrubbing knuckle-shield, made in the form of a band Or a cot, into which thengers enter or through which they pass, having its face or the surface rubbed, creased, or reeded, and to be worn on the hands as a protection to the hands, and to facilitate labor in Washing clothes, as herein described, and for all other purposes wherein it may be useful.
