Definitions
- the present invention relates to a glove with thumb joint protection.
- the US 4,295,229 relates to a football glove with a joint and a hand protection for offensive or defensive "linemen".
- the joint and hand protection consist of one pad each. While the joint pad extends from the hand over the wrist, the hand pad extends over the back of the hand to the metacarpophalangeal finger joints.
- Hanging finger loops made of an elastic material are provided on the finger pads. These elastic loops should not only be able to accommodate fingers of different sizes, but should also enable the fingers to be bent and used.
- a thumb pad is provided for the thumb, on which an elastic thumb loop is also arranged.
- limiting bands made of an inelastic material are provided, which are placed around the finger loops and sewn onto them.
- the elastic thumb loop is surrounded by a limiting band on the thumb pad. Furthermore, the limiting band and the thumb pad are connected to the finger pad via upper and lower leather parts to prevent excessive thumb deflection.
- the glove described is specially designed for football.
- the thumb pad is permanently connected to the finger pad and that the freedom of movement of the thumb is thus permanently restricted.
- FR-A-2 647 314 describes a thumb guard made of a reinforcing element made of plastic or metal, which limits the movement of the thumb.
- the reinforcing element is essentially in the form of a compressed circular band, one extremity of which is extended by a groove. The groove is intended for the thumb.
- the Reinforcing element is preferably integrated in a glove.
- a disadvantage of the thumb protection described is that the reinforcing element integrated in a glove permanently limits the freedom of movement of the thumb.
- the glove wearer may find the reinforcement element annoying when no sport is being practiced. It is therefore also intended to use a thumb guard that is not integrated in the glove, but can be used with different gloves.
- the thumb guard is not integrated in a glove, putting on the thumb guard and glove is quite cumbersome and time consuming and there is a risk that the thumb guard will be lost.
- DE-A-37 25 516 describes a thumb protection from a case which is pulled over the thumb area of a glove.
- the lower part of the case is firmly attached to the glove, so that the radial movement of the thumb is restricted.
- eyelets are provided on a thumb pocket and on the finger area of the glove, through which a cord can be pulled and then fastened.
- a disadvantage of the latter solution is that the glove cannot be put on alone because the cord cannot be tied with one hand.
- the glove wearer should have the choice of whether to use the thumb joint protector or not.
- the glove wearer should also be able to put on or take off the thumb protection himself and as quickly as possible.
- a glove in which the joint protection is formed by a loop arranged on the glove, into which the thumb is inserted to prevent injury to the thumb joint can.
- Such joint protection is intended in particular for sports enthusiasts, such as skiers or snowboarders, who particularly frequently suffer joint luxations in the region of the thumb root in the event of falls.
- the thumb joint protection according to the invention still has the great advantage for the user that he can activate or deactivate it at any time without having to take off the glove. There is also no risk that the joint protection could be lost as it is integrated on the glove. To make the joint protection effective, the thumb simply has to be inserted into the loop.
- the glove also has the surprising advantage, which is particularly appreciated by snowboarders, that the thumb sitting in the loop still has a certain freedom of movement, so that gripping movements can be carried out by hand and objects such as sunglasses, handkerchiefs or small sports equipment can be held. If even more freedom of movement is desired, the user of the glove - unlike the thumb joint protectors mentioned at the beginning - can pull the thumb out of the loop with ease.
- the loop is advantageously formed by a non-stretchable band, for example a nylon band.
- an elastic band can also be provided.
- the loop should be dimensioned so that the angle between the thumb and forefinger cannot exceed approximately 60 °.
- the loop is expediently fastened on the one hand on the side approximately at the index finger attachment and on the other hand on the inside of the glove in the area of the ring finger. This has the advantage that the thumb is aligned practically parallel to the other fingers. In addition, it can be arranged relatively close to the index and middle fingers. Injury to the thumb root area in the event of a fall is practically impossible.
- a reinforcement zone for example made of leather, is advantageously provided in the area of fastening the loop to the glove.
- An expedient embodiment provides that one end of the loop on the glove is undetachable and that other end is detachably fastened, for example, by a Velcro fastener. This allows the freedom of movement of the thumb to be adjusted individually without the help of other people. If the thumb protection is not required, the strap can be attached to the glove, for example by means of a Velcro fastener, ie without loops. The glove with thumb joint protection is then a "normal" glove, and the deactivated thumb joint protection is practically imperceptible.
- the glove 11 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a loop 13 on the inside of the glove, which is fastened on the side cheek behind the index finger and approximately in the middle of the glove.
- the loop is located where the index and middle finger base joint comes to rest when the hand is inserted into the glove.
- the loop 13 is dimensioned such that the thumb can be easily inserted into the loop 13 and pulled out again.
- the thumb expediently still has a certain freedom of movement when it sits in the loop, an abduction of the thumb, e.g. in the event of a fall, which makes loop 13 impossible.
- the loop 13 can be formed by an elastic or an inextensible band 15.
- the band 15 is preferably sewn on the side behind the index finger and approximately in the middle of the glove. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the band 15 extends over the entire inside of the glove. In the area where the loop is sewn onto the glove 11 a reinforcement zone 17, for example made of leather, is provided to prevent the strip 15 from being torn loose.
- the glove is made of a tear-resistant outer material, which can have a water-impermeable coating 19 on the inside of the glove. The coating has a rough surface to make the glove easier to grip.
- the loop 13 can also only be at one point on the glove 11, e.g. attached to the side of the glove on the index finger (not shown). If an elastic band 15 is used, the freedom of movement of the thumb can be increased somewhat. It is also conceivable to provide a band that is sewn onto the glove only at one end and is placed around the thumb if thumb joint protection is desired. For this purpose, the band can have a Velcro fastener at the loose end. Such an embodiment has the advantage that the freedom of movement of the thumb can be adjusted individually.

Abstract
Ein Handschuh (11) besitzt an der Handschuhinnenseite eine Schlaufe (13), in welche der Daumen eingeschlauft werden kann. Dadurch können die bei Stürzen häufig auftretenden Gelenkluxationen im Daumenwurzelbereich verhindert werden. Die Schlaufe (13) kann so bemessen sein, dass der in der Schlaufe sitzende Daumen immer noch eine gewisse Bewegungsfreiheit aufweist. Selbst mit eingeschlauftem Daumen sind immer noch Greifbewegungen möglich, um kleinere Gegenstände zu erfassen. Wird aber der Laxationsschutz für den Daumen nicht benötigt, kann der Daumen mit Leichtigkeit wieder aus der Schlaufe genommen werden. A glove (11) has a loop (13) on the inside of the glove, into which the thumb can be looped. This can prevent the joint dislocations in the thumb root area that often occur during falls. The loop (13) can be dimensioned such that the thumb sitting in the loop still has a certain freedom of movement. Even with the thumb looped in, gripping movements are still possible to grasp smaller objects. However, if the laxation protection for the thumb is not required, the thumb can be easily removed from the loop.
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Handschuh mit Daumengelenkschutz.The present invention relates to a glove with thumb joint protection.
Die US 4,295,229 betrifft einen Football-Handschuh mit einem Gelenk- und einem Handschutz für offensive oder defensive "linemen". Der Gelenk- und der Handschutz bestehen aus je einem Polster. Während das Gelenkpolster sich von der Hand über das Handgelenk erstreckt, erstreckt sich das Handpolster über den Handrücken bis zu den metacarpophalangen Fingergelenken. An den Fingerpolstern sind herunterhängende Fingerschlaufen aus einem elastischen Material vorgesehen. Diese elastischen Schlaufen sollen nicht nur Finger unterschiedlicher Grösse unterbringen können, sondern gleichzeitig auch das Beugen und den Gebrauch der Finger ermöglichen. Für den Daumen ist ein Daumenpolster vorgesehen, an welchem ebenfalls eine elastische Daumenschlaufe angeordnet ist. Um ein übermässiges Dehnen der in den elastischen Fingerschlaufen steckenden Finger zu verhindern, sind Begrenzungsbänder aus einem unelastischen Material vorgesehen, welche um die Fingerschlaufen gelegt und an diesen festgenäht sind. Die elastische Daumenschlaufe ist von einem am Daumenpolster angeordneten Begrenzungsband umgeben. Weiter ist das Begrenzungsband und das Daumenpolster über obere und untere Lederteile mit dem Fingerpolster verbunden, um eine allzu grosse Daumenauslenkung zu verhindern.The US 4,295,229 relates to a football glove with a joint and a hand protection for offensive or defensive "linemen". The joint and hand protection consist of one pad each. While the joint pad extends from the hand over the wrist, the hand pad extends over the back of the hand to the metacarpophalangeal finger joints. Hanging finger loops made of an elastic material are provided on the finger pads. These elastic loops should not only be able to accommodate fingers of different sizes, but should also enable the fingers to be bent and used. A thumb pad is provided for the thumb, on which an elastic thumb loop is also arranged. In order to prevent excessive stretching of the fingers stuck in the elastic finger loops, limiting bands made of an inelastic material are provided, which are placed around the finger loops and sewn onto them. The elastic thumb loop is surrounded by a limiting band on the thumb pad. Furthermore, the limiting band and the thumb pad are connected to the finger pad via upper and lower leather parts to prevent excessive thumb deflection.
Der beschriebene Handschuh ist speziell für den Footballsport konzipiert. Bezüglich des vorgeschlagenen Daumenschutzes ist nachteilig, dass das Daumenpolster permanent mit dem Fingerpolster verbunden ist und dass somit die Bewegungsfreiheit des Daumens permanent eingeschränkt ist.The glove described is specially designed for football. With regard to the proposed thumb protection, it is disadvantageous that the thumb pad is permanently connected to the finger pad and that the freedom of movement of the thumb is thus permanently restricted.
Die FR-A-2 647 314 beschreibt einen Daumenschutz aus einem Verstärkungselement aus Kunststoff oder Metall, welches die Bewegung des Daumens begrenzt. Das Verstärkungselement hat im wesentlichen die Form eines zusammengedrückten kreisförmigen Bandes, dessen eine Extremität mit einer Rinne verlängert ist. Die Rinne ist für die Aufnahme des Daumens gedacht. Das Verstärkungselement ist vorzugsweise in einem Handschuh integriert. Nachteilig am beschriebenen Daumenschutz ist, dass das in einem Handschuh integrierte Verstärkungselement die Bewegungsfreiheit des Daumens dauernd einschränkt. Ausserdem dürfte der Handschuhträger das Verstärkungselement dann, wenn kein Sport ausgeübt wird, als störend empfinden. Es ist daher auch vorgesehen, einen Daumenschutz zu verwenden, der nicht im Handschuh integriert ist, sondern mit verschiedenen Handschuhen verwendet werden kann. Wenn aber der Daumenschutz nicht in einem Handschuh integriert ist, ist das Anziehen von Daumenschutz und Handschuh ziemlich beschwerlich und zeitaufwendig und es besteht die Gefahr, dass der Daumenschutz verloren geht.FR-A-2 647 314 describes a thumb guard made of a reinforcing element made of plastic or metal, which limits the movement of the thumb. The reinforcing element is essentially in the form of a compressed circular band, one extremity of which is extended by a groove. The groove is intended for the thumb. The Reinforcing element is preferably integrated in a glove. A disadvantage of the thumb protection described is that the reinforcing element integrated in a glove permanently limits the freedom of movement of the thumb. In addition, the glove wearer may find the reinforcement element annoying when no sport is being practiced. It is therefore also intended to use a thumb guard that is not integrated in the glove, but can be used with different gloves. However, if the thumb guard is not integrated in a glove, putting on the thumb guard and glove is quite cumbersome and time consuming and there is a risk that the thumb guard will be lost.
Die DE-A-37 25 516 beschreibt einen Daumenschutz aus einem Futteral, welches über den Daumenbereich eines Handschuhs gezogen wird. Der untere Bereich des Futterals ist fest mit dem Handschuh verbunden, sodass die radiale Bewegung des Daumens beschränkt ist. In einer anderen Ausführungsform sind an einer Daumentasche und am Fingerbereich des Handschuhs Oesen vorgesehen, durch welche ein Schnurband gezogen und dann befestigt werden kann. Nachteilig an der letztgenannten Lösung ist, dass der Handschuh nicht alleine angezogen werden kann, da sich das Schnurband einhändig nicht festbinden lässt.DE-A-37 25 516 describes a thumb protection from a case which is pulled over the thumb area of a glove. The lower part of the case is firmly attached to the glove, so that the radial movement of the thumb is restricted. In another embodiment, eyelets are provided on a thumb pocket and on the finger area of the glove, through which a cord can be pulled and then fastened. A disadvantage of the latter solution is that the glove cannot be put on alone because the cord cannot be tied with one hand.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Handschuh zur Verfügung zu stellen, welcher je nach dem Bedürfnis des Benützers einerseits einen wirksamen Schutz vor einer Daumenluxation und andererseits eine normale, uneingeschränkte Bewegung des Daumens ermöglicht. Insbesondere sollte der Handschuhträger die Wahl haben, ob er den Daumengelenkschutz benützen oder auf ihn verzichten möchte. Auch sollte der Handschuhträger den Daumenschutz selbst und möglichst rasch an-oder ablegen können.It is an object of the present invention to provide a glove which, depending on the needs of the user, on the one hand provides effective protection against thumb dislocation and on the other hand enables normal, unrestricted movement of the thumb. In particular, the glove wearer should have the choice of whether to use the thumb joint protector or not. The glove wearer should also be able to put on or take off the thumb protection himself and as quickly as possible.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies durch einen Handschuh realisiert, bei welchem der Gelenkschutz durch eine am Handschuh angeordnete Schlaufe gebildet ist, in welche der Daumen zur Verhinderung einer Daumengelenksverletzung gesteckt werden kann. Ein solcher Gelenkschutz ist insbesondere für Sporttreibende, wie Ski- oder Snowboardfahrer gedacht, die sich bei Stürzen besonders häufig Gelenkluxationen im Daumenwurzelbereich zuziehen. Der erfindungsgemässe Daumengelenkschutz hat aber für den Benützer noch den grossen Vorteil, dass er diesen jederzeit aktivieren oder desaktivieren kann, ohne dass er den Handschuh dazu ausziehen müsste. Es besteht auch keine Gefahr, dass der Gelenkschutz verlorengehen könnte, da dieser am Handschuh integriert ist. Um den Gelenkschutz wirksam werden zu lassen, braucht der Daumen einfach in die Schlaufe gesteckt zu werden. Der Handschuh hat auch den überraschenden und insbesondere von Snowboardfahrern äusserst geschätzten Vorteil, dass der in der Schlaufe sitzende Daumen immer noch eine gewisse Bewegungsfreiheit hat, sodass mit der Hand Greifbewegungen ausgeführt und Gegenstände wie Sonnenbrillen, Taschentücher oder auch kleine Sportgeräte festgehalten werden können. Wird noch mehr Bewegungsfreiheit gewünscht, so kann der Benützer des Handschuhs - im Unterschied zu den eingangs erwähnten Daumengelenkschützen - den Daumen mit Leichtigkeit aus der Schlaufe ziehen.According to the invention, this is achieved by a glove in which the joint protection is formed by a loop arranged on the glove, into which the thumb is inserted to prevent injury to the thumb joint can. Such joint protection is intended in particular for sports enthusiasts, such as skiers or snowboarders, who particularly frequently suffer joint luxations in the region of the thumb root in the event of falls. The thumb joint protection according to the invention still has the great advantage for the user that he can activate or deactivate it at any time without having to take off the glove. There is also no risk that the joint protection could be lost as it is integrated on the glove. To make the joint protection effective, the thumb simply has to be inserted into the loop. The glove also has the surprising advantage, which is particularly appreciated by snowboarders, that the thumb sitting in the loop still has a certain freedom of movement, so that gripping movements can be carried out by hand and objects such as sunglasses, handkerchiefs or small sports equipment can be held. If even more freedom of movement is desired, the user of the glove - unlike the thumb joint protectors mentioned at the beginning - can pull the thumb out of the loop with ease.
Vorteilhaft ist die Schlaufe durch ein nicht dehnbares Band, z.B. ein Nylonband, gebildet. Es kann aber auch ein elastisches Band vorgesehen sein. Ein solches Band erhöht den Tragkomfort. Die Schlaufe sollte so bemessen sein, dass der Winkel zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger ungefähr 60° nicht überschreiten kann. Zweckmässigerweise ist die Schlaufe einerseits seitlich ungefähr am Zeigefingeransatz und andererseits an der Handschuhinnenseite ungefähr im Bereich des Ringfingers befestigt ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass der Daumen dadurch praktisch parallel zu den anderen Finger ausgerichtet ist. Ausserdem kann er relativ nahe beim Zeige- und Mittelfinger angeordnet sein. Eine Verletzung des Daumenwurzelbereichs bei einem Sturz wird dadurch praktisch verunmöglicht. Vorteilhaft ist im Bereich der Befestigung der Schlaufe am Handschuh eine Verstärkungszone, z.B. aus Leder, vorgesehen. Damit kann verhindert werden, dass die Schlaufe sich vom Handschuh losreissen kann. Eine zweckmässige Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass das eine Ende der Schlaufe am Handschuh unlösbar und das andere Ende z.B. durch einen Klettenverschluss lösbar befestigt ist. Dies erlaubt es, die Bewegungsfreiheit des Daumens individuell ohne Mithilfe von anderen Personen einzustellen. Wird der Daumenschutz nicht benötigt, so kann das Band z.B. mittels eines Klettenverschlusses satt, d.h. ohne Schlaufenbildung, an den Handschuh angelegt werden. Der Handschuh mit Daumengelenkschutz ist dann ein "gewöhnlicher" Handschuh, und der desaktivierte Daumengelenkschutz ist praktisch nicht mehr wahrnehmbar.The loop is advantageously formed by a non-stretchable band, for example a nylon band. However, an elastic band can also be provided. Such a band increases the wearing comfort. The loop should be dimensioned so that the angle between the thumb and forefinger cannot exceed approximately 60 °. The loop is expediently fastened on the one hand on the side approximately at the index finger attachment and on the other hand on the inside of the glove in the area of the ring finger. This has the advantage that the thumb is aligned practically parallel to the other fingers. In addition, it can be arranged relatively close to the index and middle fingers. Injury to the thumb root area in the event of a fall is practically impossible. A reinforcement zone, for example made of leather, is advantageously provided in the area of fastening the loop to the glove. This can prevent the loop from tearing off the glove. An expedient embodiment provides that one end of the loop on the glove is undetachable and that other end is detachably fastened, for example, by a Velcro fastener. This allows the freedom of movement of the thumb to be adjusted individually without the help of other people. If the thumb protection is not required, the strap can be attached to the glove, for example by means of a Velcro fastener, ie without loops. The glove with thumb joint protection is then a "normal" glove, and the deactivated thumb joint protection is practically imperceptible.

Der in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellte Handschuh 11 besitzt an der Handschuhinnenseite eine Schlaufe 13, welche an der Seitenwange hinter dem Zeigefinger und ungefähr in der Handschuhmitte befestigt ist. Die Schlaufe befindet sich also dort, wo das Zeige- und Mittelfingergrundgelenk zu liegen kommt, wenn die Hand in den Handschuh eingeschoben wird. Die Schlaufe 13 ist so bemessen, dass der Daumen mühelos in die Schlaufe 13 gesteckt und wieder herausgezogen werden kann. Der Daumen besitzt zweckmässigerweise noch eine gewisse Bewegungsfreiheit hat, wenn dieser in der Schlaufe sitzt, wobei eine Abduktion des Daumens, z.B. bei einem Sturz, durch die Schlaufe 13 verunmöglicht wird.The
Die Schlaufe 13 kann durch ein elastisches oder ein nichtdehnbares Band 15 gebildet sein. Das Band 15 ist vorzugsweise seitlich hinter dem Zeigefinger und ungefähr in der Handschuhmitte festgenäht ist. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel erstreckt sich das Band 15 über die ganze Handschuhinnenseite. Im Bereich, wo die Schlaufe am Handschuh 11 festgenäht ist, ist eine Verstärkungszone 17, z.B. aus Leder, vorgesehen, um ein Losreissen des Bandes 15 zu verhindern. Der Handschuh ist aus einem reissfesten Obermaterial hergestellt, welches an den Handschuhinnenflächen eine wasserunddurchlässige Beschichtung 19 aufweisen kann. Die Beschichtung besitzt eine rauhe Oberfläche, um den Handschuh griffiger zu machen.The
Die Schlaufe 13 kann auch lediglich an einer Stelle am Handschuh 11, z.B. seitlich an der Seitenwange des Handschuhs beim Zeigefinger befestigt sein (nicht dargestellt). Wird ein elastisches Band 15 eingesetzt, so kann die Bewegungsfreiheit des Daumens etwas erhöht werden. Es ist auch denkbar, ein Band vorzusehen, das lediglich an einem Ende am Handschuh angenäht ist und um den Daumen gelegt wird, wenn ein Daumengelenkschutz erwünscht ist. Zu diesem Zweck kann das Band am losen Ende einen Klettenverschluss aufweisen. Eine derartige Ausführungsform hat den Vorteil, dass die Bewegungsfreiheit des Daumens individuell eingestellt werden kann.The
