An athletic glove is provided for an athlete participating in a sport or competition. The athletic glove includes specifically designed finger receptacles for enhanced stability and protection for the athlete's fingers and improved performance. A first finger receptacle encloses the little and ring fingers preventing them from moving relative to each other. A second finger receptacle encloses the index and middle finger thus preventing them from moving relative to each other.

Disclosed is a glove intended especially for racket sports, allowing the almost total preservation of sensations when an object is being held. The glove is open up to the distal phalanges of the fingers in order to preserve maximum contact with a handle, and has gripping material on the fingertips in order to optimise the gripping of the handle and prevent the glove from slipping around the fingers. An elastic part surrounds the wrist, with anti-slip properties on the side next to the skin for better hold. A part covers the entire back of the hand with stretchable material adapted to the temperature, double-fibre material allowing moisture to be transferred outwards and then absorbed. Elastic is provided at the base of the palm (opening side), allowing the hand to close more easily around the handle. The glove is intended, in particular, for any person needing to cover only the back of the hand.

The present application provides elastomeric articles that are able to deliver skin care properties to a person wearing or coming into contact with the article. The articles comprise an elastomeric film a plant stem cell material. The plant stem cell material may be in the form of a bilayer membrane-encapsulated plant stem cell material. The plant stem cell material may be present as a layer or coating on a surface of the elastomeric film. Also provided are methods for the production of the articles.

Retractable finger barrier that prevents transfer of viruses, germs, dirt, and other harmful elements onto finger when finger touches exposed surfaces or objects such as touchscreen, keypad and key board devices. Invention consists of a slim flexible flattened padded band housing a non-permeable, durable, tear-resistant fabric barrier. Encased barrier is exposed by pinching outside ends of band and inserting finger within the band's opening thereby providing finger coverage. Once tension on band is released, band sits securely, comfortably without slippage between distal interphalangeal joint and proximal interphalangeal joint or between proximal interphalangeal joint and metacarpophalangeal joint depending on user's preference. Barrier's retractability, which minimizes self-contamination and secondary transmission, consists of pulling outwardly cord located at band's end. Advertisement, custom dyes and facades can be incorporated. Reusable, compact, adjustable invention is touchscreen, keypad, keyboard compatible and adaptable for securement to objects such as key chain for maximum usage.

A safety glove having a protective member or insert extending around the fingertip of the safety glove is provided. The protective member may be positioned along the outer surface or the inner surface of the glove. Alternatively, the protective member may be integrally formed between two layers of glove material. The protective member terminates distally from an interphalangeal joint line to enable finger flexion in order to grasp an item, such as a slab of meat to be deskinned in a skinning machine. The glove may include a rough outer surface formed from thrice dipping the glove and allowing the glove to cure. Additionally, the glove may have a width near the wrist that is wider than the width near the palm to enable the glove to be rapidly removed (i.e., doffed) in an emergency event of the glove getting caught in a rotating blade on the skinning machine.

The present disclosure provides a joint protection device, comprising a joint protection body that matches a shape of a joint. The joint protection body is a hollow housing having an opened bottom and comprises a front supporting portion and side supporting portions providing supports for the joint. A notch is provided in a portion of the joint protection body, which is close to a joint movement area. The notch divides the joint protection body into a plurality of joint pieces, adjacent joint pieces are connected by two local junctions respectively provided at appropriate positions on two sides of the joint protection body and can rotate with the local junctions as rotation fulcrums. Meanwhile, the present disclosure further provides other joint protection devices similar to the above, where an upper end of a joint protection body is provided with a clearance structure to ensure forward and backward movement of the joint.

A self-contained finger sleeve, having a cover, a thumb pocket and a four-finger pocket, each having an opening: one edge of the opening of the four-finger pocket is connected to an edge of the opening of the cover: an opposite edge of the opening of the four-finger pocket is connected to an edge of the opening of the thumb pocket via a U-shaped connecting strap: in a self-contained condition, the openings of the cover and the four-finger pocket face towards each other to define a storing space that stores the thumb pocket and the U-shaped connecting stap: in an unfolded conditon, the four-finger pocket is flipped inside out and misaligned with the cover; the thumb pocket is exposed from the storing space and positioned on one side of the four-finger pocket flipped inside out the thumb pocket and the four-finger pocket flipped inside out form an ergonomic finger sleeve.

A finger sleeve for cleaning or drying the outer human ear.

An infection transmission control system is provided. The system can include pliable grips configured to wrap around a surface of a publicly used object. The system can include a securing mechanism structured to hold in place the pliable grips around the publicity used object and wherein the pliable grips when engaged with the securing mechanism form a layer which is structured to minimize physical contact between a user of the system and the surface of the publicly used object. Further, a finger pointer protection system is provided. The system includes a conductive silicon fingertip protective cap configured to fit on a person's index finger. The system also includes a fingertip storage container structured to allow storage of the silicon fingertip protective cap securely. The pliable grips and the fingertip protective cap can be created in a disposable version.

A protective adhesive finger strip booklet apparatus for sanitary device operation includes a booklet backing and a plurality of rectangular finger strips coupled to the booklet backing. Each finger strip has a main portion and a tab portion. An adhesive layer is continuously coupled to a main first side of the main portion and a tab second side of the tab portion. The adhesive layer allows a tab second side to adhere to a main second side of the main portion until peeled back by a user for use. Each finger strip is prepared for use by separating the tab portion from the main portion, securing a tab first side of the tab portion to separate the main portion from the booklet, placing the user's fingertip to the main first side of the main portion, and wrapping the main first side of the main portion around the user's finger.
