An insulated glove, including a covering, a lining and a plurality of heat insulators. The lining is sheathed in the covering, and the lining and the covering form a sandwich structure. Each of the heat insulators includes a first connecting end and a second connecting end which are respectively connected to the covering and the lining, so that the heat insulators are located in the sandwich structure. A cavity capable of insulating heat is formed between the heat insulators, the lining and the covering. The glove has a simple and reasonable structure and is flexible and convenient to use, which has good heat insulation and anti-scald effect, as well as an anti-shock effect.

A glove includes a glove main body that is stretchable and made of fiber; a coating layer that comprises a synthetic resin or a rubber as a principal component and covers an external face of the glove main body; at least one impact-resistant pad that comprises a synthetic resin or a rubber as a principal component and is arranged to at least a part of a dorsal side portion of an external face side of the coating layer on the glove main body; and an adhesive layer that bonds the coating layer and the impact-resistant pad together, wherein an adhesive constituting the adhesive layer is a moisture-curing urethane-based hot-melt adhesive.

A chemical resistant composite glove that includes a first polymeric layer in the shape of a glove; and a second polymeric layer disposed on the first polymeric layer, and wherein the first polymeric layer is specified for one class of chemical resistance and the second polymeric layer is specified for a second class of chemical resistance, and optionally a third polymeric layer, which may be a thin coating, disposed on at least one of first polymeric layer or the second polymeric layer and is optionally specified for a third class of chemical resistance.

A glove may include a hand body, the hand body being at least partially elastic, where the hand body defines a hand pocket configured to receive a user's hand, and a wrist body. The glove may also include a hand pad pocket formed in the hand body and configured to removably receive at least one hand pad, where the hand pad pocket is separated from the hand pocket by a separator, as well as a wrist padding pocket formed in the wrist body configured to removably receive a wrist pad. The hand pad pocket may be positioned in an interior of the glove.

A method for manufacturing a water vapor permeable glove or a glove lining. The method includes steps: (A) preparing a functional layer assembly in the shape of a hand having a hand insertion opening and having a flat configuration, the flat functional layer assembly being stretchable in at least one direction, (B) subjecting the flat functional layer assembly to a stretching force and thereby transforming the flat configuration into a three-dimensional structure under the influence of the stretching force, (C) applying heat to the functional layer assembly while the functional layer assembly is subject to the stretching force, thereby relaxing the functional layer assembly and transforming the three-dimensional structure of the functional layer assembly into a stable three-dimensional structure, and (D) removing the stretching force from the functional layer assembly.

Described herein is a system and method for ergonomic analysis including a sensorized glove having an inner glove including a plurality of extensometer sensors for detecting relative movements between parts of a worker's hand, and an outer glove including a plurality of pressure sensors distributed over a palmar surface and for detecting pressure exerted in corresponding areas of said palmar surface; a wearable network of sensors being located in the network so that they can be associated to corresponding joints of the human body; a unit for generating a sequence of images of a worker task; and a processing unit for receiving data and/or signals from the sensorized glove, from the wearable sensor network, and/or from the unit, and configured for processing said data and/or signals to estimate ergonomic indicators and/or to obtain local information of effort and/or posture.

An all-inclusive electrical heating liner for use in the fabrication of articles of apparel is disclosed. It is comprised of a thermally insulating fabric piece which is shaped to define a dorsal panel and a pair of frontal panels to which are secured patterns of heating wires at specific locations. The spaced relationship between the dorsal panel and the pair of frontal panels is adjustable whereby the liner can be incorporated in articles of apparel of different sizes including small. Medium, large and X-large apparel sizes and gender types. The liner incorporates a power supply, controls, switches, wiring, connectors and other components thereby facilitating the incorporation of the liner into an article of apparel resulting in a cost reduction to the manufacturer of heated articles of apparel. Various embodiments are described to show that the all-inclusive one-piece heating liner is adaptable to many articles which require control heating.

A glove has a glove core and a glove component. The glove core has a palm portion, a dorsum portion, a side portion of hand and a finger portion; the palm portion and the finger portion are connected to each other via a connection point, the finger piece portion has a first and second bonding portions with a distance therebetween, the finger piece portion is bound to the finger portion via the first bonding portion, and the finger piece portion is bound to the palm portion via the second bonding portion. The connection point, the first bonding portion and the second bonding portion are formed to have a virtual triangle, thus the finger portion and the palm portion have an angle being less than 180 degrees, and that is, the finger portion bends forward the palm portion to make the glove comply with the ergonomic principle.

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 tip 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 tip regions may be of reduced diameter and circumference so as to pull the glove material tightly around the tips of the user's finger so that even a faint pulse in a patient may be detected.

A glove includes a glove core and a glove component. The glove core includes a palm portion, a dorsum portion and a side portion of hand. A side of the glove component is adhered on a surface of the glove core, and the glove component covers a part of the palm portion and a part of the dorsum portion of the glove core, a part of the palm portion and a part of the side portion of hand of the glove core, or a part of the dorsum portion and a part of the side portion of hand of the glove core, such that the glove core can be combined with the enhanced glove component, forming a structure which is simple in structure and can be formed easily. Furthermore, the robustness of the glove can be improved significantly to be provided with practicability and progressiveness.
