A welder's garment assembly for protecting a welder from heat and electricity includes a garment that can be worn by a user. The garment is comprised of a pair of insulating layers that are sandwiched between a pair of covering layers. Each of the insulating layers is comprised of an energy absorbing material to protect the user during welding. A respective one of the covering layers is comprised of a resilient material to protect the insulating layers from abrasion. Furthermore, a respective one of the covering layers is comprised of a deformable material for enhancing comfort for wearing the garment.

Glove with elastic wristband

A lightweight, breathable glove for baseball or softball is provided that generally includes a strap that extends over at least a portion of an opening in which a wearer may place his or her hand. The strap is at least partially made of an elastic material so that the strap can extend and contract. The glove may thus have a reduced weight to provide superior ease of use. Further, the conforming fit of the glove provides for enhanced control of the glove, which provides superior utility and performance for the glove, as well as other advantages. Alternatively, the glove may include a thong which may extend from the glove and may engage an elastic band at one of its ends. Thus, the elastic band may engage both the glove and the thong so that the size of the opening can increase and decrease due to the strap and/or elastic band.

Method of making a multilayered elastomeric article

Elastomeric articles, such as gloves, made from more than one layer, are provided. The gloves can include a first (grip side) layer in which a first colorant is compounded or integrated and a second (donning side) layer in which a second colorant is compounded or integrated. Alternatively, the gloves can include a translucent first layer and a second layer in which a colorant is compounded or integrated. Either arrangement can enable a breach of the first layer to be more easily detected, either due to the high level of contrast between the first layer and the second when a first colorant and a second colorant are utilized, or due to the translucence of the first layer as compared to the donning side layer, where the intensity of the second layer is increased upon a breach of the translucent first layer.

A composite item of footwear and handwear having a main body to accommodate the hand/foot of a wearer of the item, the main body comprising an outer layer, an inner layer and a waterproof and breathable intermediate layer between the outer and inner layers, and an opening through which a foot/hand can be inserted, the opening defined by a cuff arrangement comprising a cuff region that comprises an end region of each of the inner and intermediate layers and a cuff inner portion of the outer layer that extends beyond the said end regions, the cuff arrangement further comprising a waterproof cuff band fixed to one or both of the cuff inner portion and end region of the inner layer to lie over and be fixed to the outside of the outer layer, the location at which the waterproof cuff band is fixed to the outer layer is at a distance from the opening that is greater than the distance between the opening and the location at which the waterproof cuff band is fixed to the cuff inner portion or end region of the inner layer.

Glove for conforming to hands of various sizes
11700895 · 2023-07-18 · ·

A glove has a palm side and a back side joined at a side edge to form a glove body. The palm side and the back side are constructed from a stretch material. Panels attach to the stretch material on the palm side to form finger parts, palm parts and a back part. The panels are separated from each other by the stretch material to allow relative movement. Elastic bands attached to the panels on the back side adjust the fit. A thumb part has a gusset of the stretch material. Grip surfaces have an embossed texture with indentations.

20230218024 · 2023-07-13 · ·

Metal nanoparticle agglomerates may aid in promoting infection control over an extended period of time when adhered to a touch or contact surface of personal protective equipment, such as gloves or garments. Gloves may comprise a body having one or more touch surfaces when worn, and metal nanoparticle agglomerates adhered to a material defining the one or more touch surfaces. The gloves may further comprise an identifying tag associated with the material. The identifying tag may be electronically identifiable, which may track, for example, how long the gloves have been in use, whether the gloves have been worn, conditions under which the gloves have been worn, and/or locations where the gloves have been worn. Other personal protective equipment and garments may similarly comprise metal nanoparticle agglomerates adhered to at least a portion of a material shaped for wear, optionally including an identifying tag associated with the material.

Safety Glove System
20230218025 · 2023-07-13 ·

The present invention relates to a disposable safety glove system featuring a plurality of layers of inter-nested gloves that are worn simultaneously by a user. The improved disposable glove system of the present invention allows a user to peel away the outermost layer of gloves to reveal a new and sterile set of gloves. The glove system also features a relatively thick wristband to support the plurality of glove layers, a tab that can be used to easily peel off the outermost glove layer once the same has been used and a new pair of gloves is desired, and a numbering system that alerts the user to how many glove layers remain in the glove stack.
