Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of heatable clothing articles and more particularly, a glove which is designed to allow the heating of the user's fingers.
- the air that leaves the lungs during exhalation is at a temperature close to the average body temperature. We can therefore consider that it is hot air when the temperature outside the body is a normal temperature and even more, when it is equal to or lower than 0 ° C. It has already been thought of using this hot air as a means of heating clothing articles, requiring no external energy supply, including in the field of gloves.
- the glove is equipped with a flap, located below the middle and ring fingers of the hand, covering a hole made on the back of the glove.
- this flap When this flap is raised, it forms a funnel, through which the user can breathe his breath. This is directed towards and around the palm and fingers of the hand, thereby raising the internal temperature of the glove.
- a heatable glove of this type finds its applications when used in low temperature conditions, in particular by those who practice winter sports and in particular, skiing.
- a glove which can be heated by the breath of the user, which is provided internally with a conductive tube which branches out into several thinner tubes, corresponding to the fingers.
- This tube which communicates with the outside, can receive the breath of the user, which is distributed in the thinner tubes to the fingers and thus warms the empty space of the glove, the internal parts of it, the hand and in particular the fingers.
- This breath-carrying tube is fixed, by gluing, to an internal body of the glove which is threaded into the glove itself and which is made of a material flexible, light and heat-insulating, for example a spongy plastic material.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a glove, which can be heated by the breath of the user, which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks, while allowing privileged heating of the fingers and more particularly of the end of the latter.
- This object is perfectly achieved by the glove of the invention which comprises, in known manner: a) an outer layer, pierced with a through hole on the back of the hand, b) an inner layer, permeable to air , c) a blowing element, fixed on the outer layer, at the level of the through hole.
- the glove of the invention also comprises: d) an intermediate layer, not very permeable to air, which is partially sewn to the outer layer and possibly to the inner layer and which is arranged between them on a first zone of the back of the hand extending from the blowing element, to one or more second zone (s) covering the end of the fingers over a determined distance D, so as to delimit with the layer outer, a free space for circulation of the air blown from the blowing element, opening at distance D from the end of said fingers.
- the hot air which is blown by the user into the blowing element fills the free space between the outer layer, generally not very permeable to air, and the intermediate layer until reaching the outlet of this free space which is constituted by the second zone (s) which cover the end of the fingers.
- the hot air, arriving in this or these second zone (s) is then distributed throughout the interior volume of the glove.
- the term "glove” is used generically, also including the mitt in which there is no separation between each finger, but only for the thumb.
- the determined distance can be variable according to each second zone and also according to the size of the glove.
- this determined distance corresponds substantially to a phalanx and a half.
- the glove also comprises a fibrous filling material which is arranged at least in each second zone between the outer layer and the inner layer.
- the intermediate layer is made of the same material as the outer layer, a material generally not very permeable to air, being a glove which must have good thermal insulation properties.
- the portion of the outer layer which is pierced with a through hole on the back of the hand and which is equipped with the blowing element is a part which is attached to the first and to the second zone (s), in particular when the glove is being made.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the glove of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a very diagrammatic view, in longitudinal sections, of the glove of FIG. 1 along the axis II II, - FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view of the intermediate piece,
- Figures 4 and 5 are plan views of a blowing element in the open position ( Figure 4) and in the closed position ( Figure 5).
- Glove 1 which will be described is a glove specially designed for the practice of sports which can take place in cold weather, in particular but not exclusively, skiing, fishing and hunting, the structure of which will only be described.
- present invention which relates to the system for heating the fingers, and more particularly, of the end of the fingers of the user by insufflation by the latter of his own breath.
- the glove 1 is produced in a conventional manner by making a set of parts making it possible, once assembled, to obtain a general configuration similar to that of the hand.
- the outer layer which is made of a waterproof material and relatively little permeable to air, this to limit the free passage of the cold air coming from outside.
- This outer layer 2 can be formed by assembling several pieces made of different materials depending on the location on the glove, especially at the inside of the hand.
- This glove 1 also comprises, in a conventional manner, an inner lining 3 which is directly in contact with the skin of the user.
- This lining 3 is made of a porous material, permeable to air.
- the system for heating the fingers, and more particularly, the end of the fingers, of the user comprises on the one hand, a blowing element 4 and on the other hand, an intermediate layer 5.
- the blowing element 4 is fixed on the outer layer 2 directly above a hole 6 formed in said outer layer 2, on the back of the hand.
- This blowing element 4 may in particular be a part molded from a flexible plastic material having an annular peripheral rim
- this blowing element 4 has a slightly convex shape, with an offset opening 8, so that the hot air blown by the user enters the blowing element with a direction determined, according to arrow F.
- the intermediate layer 5 is fixed, over a portion of its periphery, along seam lines 9 to the outer layer 2 and possibly to the inner lining 3. As it appears on examining FIG. 3, this intermediate layer
- the intermediate piece 5 is a part intended to only partially cover the back of the hand over a first zone 23, extending in the zone adjacent to the blowing element 4, as well as over a proximal part of each finger, up to a distance D from the end of these.
- the fixing of the intermediate piece 5 with the outer layer 2 takes place around the entire periphery of the intermediate piece 5, except for the extreme edges 5a, 5b, 5c and 5d corresponding to each of the four fingers of the glove, except for the thumb 10.
- the outer layer portion which extends over the zone 23, covering the intermediate layer 5, and over the distal zone
- this part 22 is made of the same material as the layer intermediate 5.
- the outer 2, intermediate 5 and inner 3 layers can be sewn together. This way of doing things simplifies the confection operations.
- the distance D separating the extreme edge 5a and the end 11 of the finger is naturally a function of the corresponding finger, whether it is the index, middle finger, ring finger or little finger (D 1 to D4 ).
- a free space 12 for circulation of the hot air blown in by the user from the blowing element 4 free space which opens out. in the distal zone 13 of the finger 14 which does not have an intermediate layer 5.
- FIG. 2 shows, by arrows, how the preferred movement of the hot air blown in by the user from the blowing element 4 takes place. Since the outer layer 2 and the intermediate layer 5 are in a material which is not very permeable to air, the hot air moves, preferably initially, in the free space 12 of circulation until opening into the distal zone 13 of the finger 14. At this place, it occupies l 'Whole space of the distal end 13 due to the fact that the inner lining 3 is, in turn, breathable. There is therefore privileged heating at the fingertip of the user, that is to say the one who is affected, first of all, by cooling to low temperatures. The blown air which has already lost part of its heat, then continues its movement in the interior volume of the lining 3 and heats the proximal part of the finger and the rest of the hand there.
- the distances D1 to D4 correspond substantially to a phalanx and a half of each finger concerned.
- a fibrous filling material for example in continuation of the intermediate layer 5.
- This fibrous material filling has for function of increasing the residence time of the hot air in this distal zone 13 on the one hand, by reducing the speed of passage of this hot air and on the other hand, by constituting a means of storing the heat in this zoned. The goal being, here again, to favor the heating of the fingertips compared to the other parts of the hand.
- a sheet of films forming a thermal insulation between the outer layer 2 and the inner lining 3.
- this sheet (wadding) which acts as the fibrous filling material in the distal area 13.
- FIG. 2 a relatively significant spacing has been shown between the outer layer 2 and the intermediate layer 5.
- these two outer 2 and inner 5 layers are applied. one against the other and there is not, strictly speaking, free space 12, as shown in FIG. 2.
- the configuration of the intermediate layer 5, which is represented in FIG. 3, makes it possible, from a single blowing hole 8, to obtain a good distribution of the hot air blown in the four ramifications of the free space 12, extending above the proximal portions of the four fingers.
- the blowing element is located substantially in the extension of the index finger and is, therefore, optimally placed with respect to the natural movement of the hand, bearing towards the mouth of the 'user.
- the blowing element 4 comprises temporary and removable closing means. It may in particular be a cap 15 on the one hand, which is connected to the part 16 fixed on the outer layer 2 by a flexible connecting strip 17 and on the other hand, which is capable of being secured to said part 16 by interlocking, the part 16 and the cap 15 comprising reliefs 18 adapted accordingly.
- the cap 15 can include an extension 19 provided with mechanical hooking means, of the self-gripping type, for example hooks 20, while on the outer layer 2, beyond the blowing element 4, additional mechanical fastening means are provided, for example loops 21. This particular arrangement makes it possible to obtain a durable and sealed closure of the blowing element 4, as long as the user does not wish to implement the blowing heating specific to the invention.
- the inner lining 3 has a hydrophilic nature making it possible to absorb the water contained in the breath breathed in by the user and to quickly evacuate this water, to prevent the user from having a feeling of humidity. .
- This evacuation is possibly done by the seam lines and also by the layers of the glove which have a certain permeability to water vapor.
- the intermediate layer 5 which delimits the free space 12 for circulation of the blown hot air, does not extend over the thumb 10. It should be noted that the thumb is , among all the fingers, the one that is least quickly affected by low temperatures. It is therefore normal to favor the other four fingers first.
- this embodiment is not exclusive of the present invention. It would be possible, even if this complicates the process of making the glove, to produce a glove in which the free space 12 for circulation of blown hot air would extend over the proximal part of the thumb.
