A protective glove includes a primary yarn that forms the palm, thumb and finger sections of the glove. The primary yarn has an interior surface forming the interior surface of the glove, and an exterior surface forming the exterior surface of the glove. A plaiting yarn is plaited to portions of the exterior surface of the primary yarn to form a plurality of enhanced sections on the exterior surface of the glove. The enhanced sections having at least one substantially enhanced physical characteristic in relation to the primary layer, such as increased cut resistance.

A cut resistant safety glove having rigid finger guards for protecting a wearer's hand that is holding an object being cut from being inadvertently cut. The cut resistant safety glove includes a glove base constructed of an elastic, breathable material that includes a retaining band that prevents the glove from sliding along a wearer's skin and a plurality finger portions that cover a wearer's fingers. Each of the finger portions include multiple finger guards which each define a rigid plate that is adhered to the exterior surface of the glove base. The finger guards are positioned to protect areas of the finger which may be at risk of being cut without obstructing the bending action of the wearer's finger joints.

A thin coated supported glove and method of making the glove includes a thin knitted liner, including a plurality of finger components, a thumb component, a backhand component, and a palm component, wherein the thin knitted liner comprises a covered yarn including a tungsten core having a diameter of about 25-35 micrometers, a polyamide wrapping yarn disposed upon the tungsten core, and a high performance polyethylene wrapping yarn disposed upon the polyamide wrapping yarn, wherein the covered yarn is (350) denier or less; a second yarn, wherein the second yarn is an intermingled yarn of (115) denier or less; and a thin polymeric coating adhered to the thin knitted liner.

A wear-resistant and shock-resistant glove includes a glove body and a wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer. The wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is disposed at a palm part and a finger part of the glove body, the wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is made of an elastic material, and the wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is subjected to compression molding and is integrally formed on the glove body. The wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is integrally formed at the palm part, the finger part and a purlicue part between a thumb and a forefinger of the glove body, such that the glove has shock-resistant, wear-resistant and stab-resistant effects. The wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is subjected to compression molding and is integrally formed on the glove body. The wear-resistant and stab-resistant layer is made of a high-elasticity plastic material, which meets the requirements on wear resistant and shock resistance.

A protective baseball sliding glove is a device for protecting the user's hand when the user is sliding into a base. The user is able to position his or her hand within a hand-enclosing rigid housing that is then placed into a glove that covers the hand-enclosing rigid housing and a portion of the user's forearm. The user is able to grasp a cross-brace within the hand-enclosing rigid housing, anchoring the user's hand within the hand-enclosing rigid housing. The position of the cross-brace may be adjusted via a plurality of adjustment holes on the hand-enclosing rigid housing that allows the user to move the cross-brace to his or her comfort. A securing stabilizer strap may be utilized to secure the glove as well as provide structural support and rigidity to the user's wrist.

A glove that does not have to be removed and allows quick bare index finger trigger contact for shooting of a pistol or rifle. Simple modification of a standard five fingered glove that still allows for normal use after the modification. My invention allows for instant bare finger contact with a control surface, such as a trigger, touch screen display and casting of a fishing line from a spinning reel.

The invention relates to a protective clothing unit, in particular a protective clothing unit having fragment protection, preferably having a protective function against fragments created and/or released by detonation and/or explosion, comprising outerwear and/or underwear and possibly comprising separate head and/or face protection, neck protection, shoulder protection, arm protection, hand protection, trunk protection, torso protection, genital and/or anal protection, and/or leg protection, wherein the protective clothing unit has fragment protection elements, preferably textile fragment protection elements, which are specific and different from each other and which are associated with different body regions when worn and/or cover different body regions when worn, preferably having a protective function against fragments created and/or released by detonation and/or explosion.

A glove apparatus is disclosed comprising a substantially glove-shaped first layer, a substantially glove-shaped second layer, and an attachment tab comprising a lower portion, an upper portion, and an extension portion. The attachment tab is attached to a finger portion of the second layer along the lower portion and along the upper portion. The extension portion extends from the attachment tab at a location distal from a fingertip of the second layer and overlies the upper portion to an attachment region on the first layer proximate a fingertip of the first layer, the fingertips of the first layer and of the second layer thereby lying substantially near or in contact with one another.

An elastomeric abrasion and cut resistant coating or coated glove, including a polymeric, elastomeric, or latex layer and, optionally, a fabric liner, is disclosed. Methods for manufacturing an elastomeric abrasion and cut resistant coating or coated glove substantially are also disclosed.

A protective glove includes a glove body defining an interior space for, in use, receiving a hand of a user. The glove body can include a liner that is constructed from or includes a material that is compatible with a polymer or nitrile outer coating. A padding layer includes a closed cell foam material. A guard layer includes guard elements that cover at least a portion of a back-of-hand portion of the glove body and one or more finger portions of the glove body. The glove also includes a polymer or nitrile outer coating applied to the liner. Methods of making the disclosed protective gloves are also disclosed.
