The inventive glove provides a work glove that detects the presence of AC voltage without compromising its usability as a work glove. Embodiments of the inventive glove include monopole aerials extending into the fingers of the glove. A thin flexible dielectric layer sits between the aerials and inside of the glove, acting as an electrical barrier between the aerials and the user's hand. The aerials are connected to conventional voltage detector circuitry on a circuit board located on the back of the glove. The circuit board is grounded to the user's wrist, which enhances the circuitry's ability to detect the presence of nearby AC voltage at a safe distance.

A glove includes a main body, and a picking member. The main body is in a bag shape, and is put on a hand. The picking member is fixed to a portion other than an outer surface of the main body. The picking member is capable of being picked up with fingers. The picking member has an inner part, and an outer part. The inner part is a part that is hidden inside the main body when the glove is worn. The outer part is a part that protrudes outside the main body when the glove is worn.

A hand cover system with two functional modes. A first one for touching objects, and a second one for isolating potentially contaminated surfaces of a hand cover. The first mode is realized by a hand cover worn by a hand with a part for touching or gripping objects. The hand cover has an outer side and an inner side. The inner side has an opening for the hand to enter the inner side of the hand cover. The inner side is divided into at least two compartments for the fingers of the hand. The outer side of the hand cover has outer palm side surfaces for contacting an object to be touched, and outer back hand side surfaces on the other side of each part. For realizing the second mode, the hand cover isolates the outer palm side surfaces from the environment when the hand cover is not in use.

A sports glove(s) for self-defense against human and animal predator(s) that includes a striker plate that is fixed to and becomes a component, part of the self-defense system, especially useful for runners to defend against human or animal predator(s), particularly useful for females and others of slight build and strength, while engaged in the sport of running. Using the Runner's Self Defense System does not interfere with runner's personal sport objectives, nor does it impose a safety threat to the runner but becomes part of standard and normal running apparel. The glove can be finger-tip less (opened fingered) or a complete glove. The glove palm includes a separate interior palm liner to anchor an appendage of the striker plate. The glove back side is furnished to allow efficient air circulation to keep hands cool. The striker plate inside the glove is lightweight yet dense, having finger holes, aligned for finger passage through the striker plate and glove simultaneously, while the palm support appendage provides rigid protection of the fingers when the hand is fully closed in a fist position. It is the interaction of, glove fixed to striker plate then fitted to fingers, that do secure the system in place while defending oneself, or not, without interruption, distraction, discomfort, or thought, the glove to the hand, acting as one, while engaged in the sport of running.

A scraper glove is provided and includes a glove body including one or more finger sleeves; and one or more scraper elements. Each of the scraper elements includes a receptacle portion positioned within a respective one of the finger sleeves to accept one or more fingers of a user, and a scraping portion with one or more scraping edges extending from a tip of a corresponding finger sleeve and integrally connected to the corresponding receptacle portion, wherein the scraping portion is configured to scrape a plant-based medium.

A fluid directing grooming glove apparatus for vacuuming and washing pets includes a glove body having a glove opening configured to receive a user's hand. A fluid diverter is coupled to the glove body and has a hose aperture and a plurality of tube apertures. Each tube aperture is in fluid communication with the hose aperture. A plurality of finger tubes is coupled to the glove body and attached to, and in fluid communication with, the tube apertures of the fluid diverter. A feed hose is coupled to the fluid diverter. The feed hose has a hose distal end attached to, and in fluid communication with, the hose aperture and a hose connector coupled to a hose proximal end. The hose connector attaches to a vacuum hose or a water hose to either suck air or spray water through the finger tubes.

A system for mitigating the transmission of infectious threats by providing an easy access to a cloth or mitt attached to a retractable cord to allow the user to grab a doorknob, subway passenger strap or pole without having skin contact with public touched surfaces. A protection cloth and retraction cord are attached to a personal attachment device, which can be worn on a belt, also has a container with sanitation solution that is applied to the protection cloth after use and can also be applied to a person's hands. A second cloth is also used to wipe down surfaces such as seats, knobs, switches, etc. providing a reusable sanitation cloth and refillable sanitation container. The invention will reduce the contact transmission of infectious disease threats in a more convenient method than current traditional methods of disposable cloths or liquids.

A scraper glove is provided and includes a glove body including one or more finger sleeves; and one or more scraper elements. Each of the scraper elements includes a receptacle portion positioned within a respective one of the finger sleeves to accept one or more fingers of a user, and a scraping portion with one or more scraping edges extending from a tip of a corresponding finger sleeve and integrally connected to the corresponding receptacle portion, wherein the scraping portion is configured to scrape a plant-based medium.

A glove with thinner and thicker parts is disclosed. The thinner parts, in one version of the glove, cover all of a thumb and index finger and a distal phalanx of a middle and ring finger. The rest of the glove, in such an embodiment, is thicker. The thicker parts can include the palm and dorsal side of the hand. The thinner region palmar side of the distal phalanx of the middle and ring finger include, in embodiments of the disclosed technology, a pad with a peelable cover which reveals a local anesthetic and disinfectant. Such pads can further be used/attached with a version of the glove with only thinner material throughout. In this manner, one can grasp with greater dexterity with the thinner regions of the glove compared to the thicker regions and also use a disinfectant followed by an anesthetic. The glove further has, covering a minority of a dorsal side of the glove, a removable and reattachable dorsal peelable pad.

A cover for a glove having a back, a wrist, a thumb, index fingers, a web, a sizing strap, and a hook and loop fastener, the cover incorporating a sheet having a flexible base and a loop attached to the base; a web arm attached to the flexible sheet and extending oppositely from the base; a wrist arm attached to the flexible sheet and extending oppositely from the base; a first hook and loop fastener attached to the web arm and adapted for, upon attaching the loop to the sizing strap, wrapping around the glove and engaging the glove's hook and loop fastener; and a second hook and loop fastener attached to the wrist arm and adapted for wrapping around the glove's wrist and engaging the glove's hook and loop fastener.
