A glove stacking apparatus forming a stack folded gloves has a supporting surface for supporting the stack as folded gloves are added to the stack along a stacking axis. First and second flaps are pivotable about first and second pivot axes opposite first and second sides of a glove stacking area. The supporting surface is relatively movable as folded gloves are added to the stack. A cyclic flap actuation system is configured to drive a folding action of each flap in which the flaps alternately pivot about the corresponding pivot axis so that each flap folds a first portion of a deposited glove overlapping a flap towards a second portion of the glove at the glove stacking area; the folding action alternating as gloves are added to the stack. Each flap in addition to being pivotable is also laterally movable both towards and away from the stacking area.

A device including: a finger guard implement, wherein the finger guard implement is configured to protect a finger from a needle injury of a tagging gun for attaching tags to a piece of clothing, apparel or garment; a central guard section, wherein the central guard section is configured to impenetrable by the needle; a central guard top portion, in which a silicone material is molded on the central guard top portion, wherein the silicone material is configured to allow the needle to pass through, thereby, attaching tags to clothing, apparel or garment; and a bar portion, wherein the bar portion is configured to secure the finger guard implement to the finger.

A glove with an enhanced gripping textured surface is disclosed herein. In preferred embodiments, the glove contains a palm region adapted to cover the palm of a person's hand, a thumb region extending outwardly from the palm region, an index finger region disposed adjacent the thumb region, a middle finger region adjacent the index finger region, a ring finger region adjacent the middle finger region, and a little finger region adjacent the ring finger region with each region containing a textured surface. In preferred embodiments, the textured surface is formed by a plurality of dimensionally hierarchical structures superimposed in layers. The textured surface of the invention, when in contact with wet tissue, repels water at a first texture layer and traps tissue at a second texture layer, such that when in tissue contact, especially exudative tissue, tissue fixatively localizes to the glove surface.

An ambidextrous or hand-specific glove including a wrist region, a palm region, and a digit region. The glove is fabricated of nitrile which is resistant to toxic or corrosive substances. These substances include drugs mixed with opioids such as fentanyl and carfentanil. The fingertip regions on the glove may be of a reduced circumference so as to pull the glove material therein tightly around the tips of a user's fingers and thumb. The reduced circumferences fingertip regions helps the user to detect even a faint pulse in a patient. The glove includes a first color exterior surface and a second color interior surface. The first and second colors contrast with one another and this feature serves as a tear indicator to the user.

A glove including a wrist region, a palm region, and a plurality of digit regions. A gripping zone is provided on one or both of the palm region and wrist region. The gripping zone includes concave indentations formed in the glove material which project into the glove's interior cavity. The glove's circumference extending through the gripping zone is reduced. When performing a task while wearing the glove, frictional contact between the gripping zone and the person's skin tends to resist movement of the palm or wrist region relative to the person's hand. This helps to keep the digit regions of the glove in sufficient contact with the user's fingers and thumb to maintain tactile sensitivity and dexterity, even when the glove is worn for an extended period of time.

Anatomically contoured ambidextrous compression glove particularly for the hand, form fitting to the tissue to ensure targeted delivery of therapeutic treatment to specific tissue, and yet remain stably affixed without pinching or binding, and allow for motion and use of the tissue while delivering targeted therapeutic treatment.

Embodiments are provided for a one-piece clothing garment that is made up of a sleeve comprising a holding band and a cuff, and an attached ambidextrous glove. Further, embodiments disclosed herein relate to a one-piece ambidextrous sleeve with an attached ambidextrous glove, where the sleeve is held onto a wearer's arm by a holding band at the top end of the sleeve, and the bottom end of the sleeve has a sleeve cuff with and a glove attached inside of the sleeve underneath the sleeve cuff at an attachment point. The glove is capable of being worn when the glove is in an un-tucked position. When the glove is not being worn by the wearer, the glove is capable of being tucked under or inside.

An ambidextrous or hand-specific glove including a wrist region, a palm region, and a digit region. The glove may be fabricated of nitrile rubber that is free of or essentially free of zinc, sulfur and accelerators to reduce allergic reactions in populations required to frequently wear protective gloves. A band region that partially or fully encircles a user's finger knuckles may be provided for easier finger bending. Texturing may be provided on glove surfaces that are used to grip articles. The fingertip regions on the front surface of the index and middle finger regions may be un-textured or smooth to enable a user to take a patient's pulse. These fingertip regions may be of reduced or smaller diameter and circumference so as to pull the glove material tightly around the tips of the user's finger and thereby applying pressure thereto so that even a faint pulse in a patient may be detected.

An ambidextrous stress-reducing polymeric glove, comprising: a thumb having a palmside surface and a backhand surface; a plurality of fingers that includes an index finger, a middle finger, a ring finger, and a little finger, each of the plurality of fingers having a palmside surface and a backhand surface; a palm region; a backhand region; and a stress-reducing ridge on at least one of: the backhand surface of the thumb and the palmside surface of the thumb, the backhand surface of the index finger and the palmside surface of the index finger, the backhand surface of the middle finger and the palmside surface of the middle finger, the backhand surface of the ring finger and the palmside surface of the ring finger, the backhand surface of the little finger and the palmside surface of the little finger, or the palm region and the backhand region.

An elastomeric glove having formed integral removal engagement finger tabs for gripping removal without exposing wearer to contaminated glove surfaces. Engagement finger tabs are formed within the glove defining raised exterior surface engagement bands when grasped for assured grasping grip for proper safe glove removal in accordance with accepted glove removal standards.
