Description

Title of the invention: SPORTS GLOVE Technical field of the invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a sports glove covering a wrist and at least part of a hand.

[0002] It applies in particular to the field of combat sport and more specifically, boxing. State of the art

[0003] The approaches described in this section are approaches that could be pursued, but not necessarily approaches that have been previously conceived or pursued. Therefore, unless otherwise indicated, it should not be assumed that any of the approaches described in this section constitutes prior art simply because of its inclusion in this section.

[0004] In the field of combat sports, hand protections are necessary for the physical protection of the user and his opponents.

[0005] Gloves have been proposed that include eyelets in which laces are tied.

[0006] However, such laces require the assistance of another person to tie them and attaching the glove to the user's hand. Such a glove attachment is therefore not suitable for individual user training.

[0007] Furthermore, gloves with laces are time-consuming to put on and take off. Thus, such fastenings are unsuitable for short training sessions.

[0008] Gloves with a flap are known to have self-gripping fabrics, for example known as "Velcro" ®, which wrap around part of the user's wrist.

[0009] However, the Velcro® flap can sometimes cause minor injury to the opponent. Furthermore, such a hook-and-loop fastener can deteriorate over time and lose its grip. Also, the hook-and-loop fabric may not effectively secure the glove to the user's wrist.

[0010] In addition, lace-up gloves and "Velcro"® flap gloves exhibit a lack of glove rigidity around the user's wrist joint. Summary of the invention

[0011] The general concept of the invention consists of implementing a tightening dial for a sliding strap in at least one loop, allowing a user to attach a sports glove to their hand. By rotating the dial, the user can tighten the glove of the invention on their wrist and part of their palm. By pressing on the dial, the user can loosen the glove of the invention on their wrist and part of their palm. part of the palm. Thus, the user can easily tighten and / or loosen the glove that is the subject of the invention. Tightening and / or loosening the sports glove is quick and easy. The user can therefore put on and / or take off the sports glove independently. Furthermore, the fit of the sports glove on the user's hand and wrist is improved. Because the strap is less elastic than a traditional shoelace, the fit of the sports glove on the user's hand and wrist remains more consistent over time during use. Also, the dial allows for more precise tightening of the glove on the wrist and palm. Thus, the precise and consistent tightening of the glove provides greater rigidity around the user's wrist joint.

Description of the implementation methods

[0013] The present description is given by way of non-limiting grammar, each feature of an embodiment being able to be advantageously combined with any other feature of any other embodiment.

[0014] As will be understood from the present description, various inventive concepts can be implemented by one or more of the methods or devices described below, several examples of which are provided herein. The actions or steps carried out in the implementation of the method or device can be ordered in any appropriate manner. Consequently, it is possible to construct embodiments in which the actions or steps are performed in a different order than that illustrated, which may include the simultaneous execution of certain acts, even if they are presented as sequential acts in the illustrated embodiments.

[0015] The expression "and / or", as used in this document, shall be understood as meaning "either or both" of the elements thus joined, that is, elements that are present conjunctively in some cases and disjunctively in others. Multiple elements listed with "and / or" shall be interpreted in the same way, that is, "one or more" of the elements thus joined. Other elements may also be present, other than those specifically identified by the "and / or" clause, whether or not they are related to those specifically identified elements.Thus, by way of non-limiting example, a reference to "A and / or B", when used in conjunction with an open language such as "including", may refer, in one embodiment, to A only (possibly including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to B only (possibly including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to A and B (possibly including other elements); etc.

[0016] As used herein in this document, "or" shall be understood inclusively.

[0017] As used in this document, the expression "at least one", with reference to a list of one or more elements, should be understood as meaning at least one element chosen from one or more elements in the list of elements, but not necessarily including at least one of each element specifically enumerated in the list of elements and not excluding any combination of elements in the list of elements. This definition also allows the optional presence of elements other than the elements specifically identified in the list of elements to which the expression "at least one" refers, whether or not they are related to these specifically identified elements.Thus, by way of non-limiting example, "at least one of A and B" (or, equivalently, "at least one of A or B", or, equivalently, "at least one of A and / or B") may refer, in one embodiment, to at least one, possibly including more than one, A, without B present (and possibly including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to at least one, possibly including more than one, B, without A present (and possibly including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to at least one, possibly including more than one, A, and at least one, possibly including more than one, B (and possibly including other elements); etc.

[0018] In this document, all transitive expressions such as "comprising", "including", "carrying", "having", "containing", "implying", "holding", "composed of", and others, shall be understood as open, that is, as meaning including but not limited to. Only the transitive expressions "consisting of" and "consisting essentially of" shall be understood as closed or semi-closed transitive expressions, respectively.

[0019] Throughout this description, the glove that is the subject of the invention is in a neutral position, that is to say, in a position in which the glove undergoes no deformation and / or stress. However, it is assumed that the characteristics of the elements comprising the glove that is the subject of the invention remain the same, regardless of the position of the glove that is the subject of the invention.

[0020] Throughout this description, the glove that is the subject of the invention corresponds to the hand dimensions of an average user, that is, a user with average measurements. However, different sizes of the glove that is the subject of the invention may be offered to fit different hand sizes of other users.

[0021] Figure [1] shows a schematic view of one embodiment of the glove 100 which is the subject of the present invention.

[0022] In the embodiment shown in [Fig. 1], the sports glove 100 is configured to cover a wrist and at least part of a hand. The glove 100 of the invention can be configured to at least partially cover the fingers. For example, the sports glove 100 is configured to cover the first phalanx of each finger. Preferably, the glove 100 of the invention is configured to cover all the phalanges of each finger. Such a glove 100 can be a combat sports glove, a fighting glove, a weightlifting glove, a hiking glove, or a combat sports mitt. Preferably, the sports glove 100 is a boxing glove. The glove 100 of the invention can comprise at least one layer of padding configured to be positioned at least on the back of the hand and fingers.

[0023] The sports glove 100 has, for example, an external shell 101 of an outer material such as leather, synthetic leather, vinyl, textile, composite material or any other material used for sports gloves.

[0024] In some embodiments, the sports glove 100 has a distal end 105 configured to surround at least one joint of the hand. Such a distal end 105 may be partially open. For example, the distal end 105 is configured to have an opening for each finger. Preferably, the distal end 105 is closed. The distal end 105 may be configured to surround, on the one hand, the thumb 104, and on the other hand, the other fingers 106, namely the index, middle, ring, and little fingers. The distal end 105 surrounding the index, middle, ring, and little fingers may be configured to have a pre-curved position around the direction of finger flexion.

[0025] The distal end 105 may include at least one layer of foam configured to at least partially surround the fingers.

[0026] In some embodiments, the sports glove 100 has an open proximal end 110 configured to encircle the wrist. The glove 100 of the invention can encircle the wrist and part of the forearm of a user during use. The user puts their hand into the sports glove 100 through an opening in the proximal end 110. The proximal end 110 is preferably sized so that the user's hand passes through the opening.

[0027] In some embodiments, the sports glove 100 has a slit 115 configured to be positioned on the palm 102 of the hand, extending from the proximal end 110 along a first axis 114. The slit is configured to extend preferentially from the opening of the proximal end 110 to the center of the palm 102 of the hand. The first axis 114 can be oriented along the axis of the user's forearm. In other words, the slit 115 can follow the axis of the forearm. The slot 115 is configured to cut the proximal end 110 and part of the palm of the glove 100 of the invention into two sides, 116 and 117. A first side 116 is positioned near the thumb 104. In other words, a first side 116 is, for example, positioned near a part of the distal end 105. A second side 117 is, for example, configured to be positioned near the back 103 of the hand.

[0028] In embodiments, the glove 100 of the invention comprises two sides, 120 and / or 125, positioned on each side of the slot 115: - a first side 120 comprising a wheel 130 for tightening a tie 135, - a second slope 125 having at least one pass 140 of the link 135. The wheel 130 can be positioned on the first slope 120 between the proximal end 110 and an end 118 of the slot 115. Preferably, the wheel 130 is positioned approximately halfway along the length of a first end 121 of the first slope 120. In other words, the wheel 130 can be positioned approximately halfway along a straight segment from the proximal end 110 to the end 118 of the slot 115.

[0029] The second slope 125 may include a loop 140. The loop 140 may be positioned near a first end 126 of the second slope 125. For example, the loop 140 is positioned on the second slope 125 between the proximal end 110 and an end 118 of the slot 115. Preferably, the loop 140 is positioned symmetrically to the wheel 130 with respect to the axis 114 of the slot 115. In other words, the loop 140 is positioned approximately halfway along the length of a first end 126 of the second slope 125. In other words, the loop 140 may be positioned approximately halfway along a straight segment from the proximal end 110 to the end 118 of the slot 115.

[0030] The tightening knob 130 may be a knob familiar to those in the medical splint trade. Preferably, the knob 130 is a knob of the brand "BOA" ® or "ATOP" ®. The knob 130 is connected to two ends of the link 135. Such a link 135 is, for example, a cable made of metal, plastic, or plant fibers.

[0031] In some embodiments, the wheel 130 comprises, for example, two separate parts held together by a removable fastener. Such a fastener is, for example, a magnet. A first part of the wheel 130 can be attached to the first side 120 of the glove 100 of the invention. A second part of the wheel 130 can be positioned on the first part of the wheel 130 by means of a magnet. In other words, the first and second parts are magnetized to each other. For example, the wheel 130 may be of the brand “FIDLOCK” ®.

[0032] In these variants, when a user pulls on the knob 130, the first and second parts of the knob 130 separate from each other by the action of the magnet. The first and second slopes, 120 and 125, can be moved apart.

[0033] The various knobs comprise several structural elements, including a knob support. In particular, the knob support can be detached from the rest of the knob for maintenance operations. Since the components of the knob are known to those skilled in the art, they are not described here.

[0034] Figure 2 shows a schematic view of a first embodiment of a first layer 285 of slopes, 205 and / or 210, with a roller 225 and loops 235 of a glove 200 which is the object of the invention.

[0035] A slope, 205 and / or 210, can be a surface whose end is bounded by a hollow. A slope can be a face, a side, or a flank. Preferably, two slopes are symmetrically positioned on either side of an axis of the hollow. One such hollow can be the slot 115.

[0036] In embodiments, the sports glove 200 comprises two sides, 205 and 210, positioned on either side, 216 and / or 217, of the slot 215. A side, 205 and / or 210, can be of any shape adapted to the glove 200 of the invention and to the shape of the slot 215. In other words, the sides, 205 and 210, have respectively a first end, 206 and / or 211, positioned on either side, 216 and / or 217, of the slot 215. The sides, 205 and 210, have, for example, a dimension along the first axis 220 of less than 150mm, and even more preferably less than 135mm. The slopes, 205 and 210, have, for example, a length of 132mm. In other words, the first ends, 206 and / or 211, respectively of each slope, 205 and / or 210, can have a length of 132mm.

[0037] In embodiments, the sports glove 200 comprises a first side 205 having a dial 225 for tightening a strap 230 and at least one loop 235 for passing the strap 230. The first side 205 may have a first end 206 superimposed on the first side 216 of the slot 215. Preferably, the first side 205 has a parallelogram shape with rounded corners having a protrusion 207 in the overall shape of a semicircle on a second end 208, the second end 208 being positioned opposite the first end 206.

[0038] The wheel 225 is preferably positioned near the first end 206 of the first slope 205. The wheel 225 can be positioned halfway along the length of the first end 206 of the first slope 205.

[0039] The first slope 205 may have a single loop 235. Preferably, the first slope 205 has two slopes 235. At least one loop 235 is preferably positioned near the first end 206 of the first slope 205. At least one loop 235 may be positioned at a distance from the knob 225 preferably less than 30 mm, and even more preferably less than 25 mm. At least one loop 235 may be positioned at a distance from the knob 225 of 20 mm.

[0040] In some embodiments, the sports glove 200 comprises a second side 210 having at least two loops 235. The loops 235 are preferably positioned near the first end 211 of the second side 210. A first loop 235 may be positioned at a distance from a second loop 235 preferably less than 30 mm, and even more preferably less than 25 mm. The first loop 235 may be positioned at a distance from the second loop 235 of 20 mm. A loop 235 of the second side 210 may be positioned opposite the wheel 225 of the first slope 205. Preferably, the loops 235 of the second slope 210 are positioned symmetrically to at least one loop 235 and / or to the wheel 225 of the first slope 205 with respect to the first axis 220. In other words, the loops 235 and the wheel 225 can be positioned in pairs, opposite each other on each slope, 205 and / or 210.

[0041] The tightening knob 225 may be a knob familiar to those in the medical splint trade. Preferably, the knob 225 is a knob of the brand "BOA"® or "ATOP"®. The knob 225 is connected to two ends of the link 230. Such a link 230 is, for example, a cable made of metal, plastic, or plant fibers. Preferably, the knob 225 includes the link 230. The knob 225 and the link 230 may be made of synthetic material.

[0042] Each loop 235 is, for example, a molded or assembled part. Each loop 235 has a through hole. Such a hole is preferably sized to accommodate the passage of the link 230. The loops 235 may be made of synthetic material.

[0043] In other words, the dial 225, the link 230 and the loops 235 can be a system of the brand “BOA” ® or “ATOP” ®.

[0044] In some embodiments, the tightening knob 225 is configured to be actuated by rotation about a second axis 240 perpendicular to the first axis 220, said knob 225 having a backstop device (not shown). The knob 225 can rotate in both directions. In other words, the knob 225 has a direct direction of rotation and an indirect direction of rotation about the second axis 240. The second axis 240 is, for example, perpendicular to the axis of the user's arm. Such a backstop device prevents direct or indirect rotation of the knob 225.

[0045] In embodiments, the sports glove 200 includes a link 230 configured to slide in each loop 235 and wrap around the wheel 225. Depending on the rotation of the wheel 225, the link 230 slides in each loop 235.

[0046] In some embodiments, the knob 225 is configured to tighten the tie 230 in a first direction of rotation of said knob 225. When the knob 225 rotates in the first direction of rotation, the tie 230 winds around the knob 225 and the length of the tie 230 between each loop 235 decreases. When the knob 225 rotates in the first direction of rotation, the first ends, 206 and / or 211, of the first and second slopes, 205 and / or 210, respectively, can be juxtaposed. Preferably, the first direction of rotation has a rotation by stop notches.

[0047] In some embodiments, the knob 225 is configured to release the link 230 in a second opposite direction of rotation, the second direction of rotation being blocked by the anti-return device and unlocked by pressing on the knob 225 or by pulling the knob 225 or by rotating the knob 225 in the second direction of rotation.

[0048] The wheel 225 may include an engaged anti-return device that keeps the connection tight as the wheel is rotated in the first direction. The anti-return device remains engaged.

[0049] When a user presses the knob 225, the anti-return device can be disengaged. The knob 225 can then rotate freely in the second direction of rotation, and the link 230 is instantly loosened. The knob may include a movable dial that pivots and slides around and on the second axis 240 of the knob 225. Pressing the knob 225 along the second axis 240 of the knob by a user can move the dial and disengage the anti-return device.

[0050] The anti-return device can also be disengaged by the user rotating the knob 225 in the second direction of rotation. Preferably, the second direction of rotation has a detent-like rotation. For example, rotating the knob 225 one notch in the second direction of rotation completely loosens the link 230. In other words, rotating the knob 225 one notch in the second direction of rotation disengages the anti-return device.

[0051] When the wheel 225 rotates in the second direction of rotation, the link 230 unwinds within the wheel 225, and the length of the link 230 between each pass 235 increases. When the wheel 225 rotates in the second direction of rotation, the first end 206 of the first slope 205 can be moved further away from the second end 211 of the second slope 210.

[0052] In variants (not shown), the wheel 225 is connected to several links 230.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first slope 205 is configured to be positioned near the thumb 104 of the hand, such as that shown in [Fig. 1]. In other words, the first slope 205 is positioned near the first side 216 of the slot 215.

[0054] In variants, the first slope 205 is configured to be positioned near the second side 217 of the thumb slot of the hand. In other words, the first slope 205 is configured to be positioned near the back 103 of the hand, such as that shown in [Fig. 1].

[0055] In embodiments, the first slope 205 has two passers 235 and the second slope 210 has three passers 235.

[0056] In embodiments, the wheel 225 is positioned between two loops 235 of the first slope 205. Preferably, each loop 235 of the first slope 205 is positioned, on either side of the wheel 225, at a respective distance of 20mm.

[0057] In some embodiments, the wheel 225 is configured to be juxtaposed to the palm 102 of the hand, as shown in [Fig. 1]. The wheel 225 can be configured to be positioned near a proximal end of the palm 102 of the hand, as shown in [Fig. 1]. In other words, the wheel 225 is, for example, positioned on the wrist. In other words, the wheel 225 can be positioned near a distal end of the forearm.

[0058] In variants, the 225 wheel is configured to be positioned on the palm.

[0059] The other characteristics of the glove which is the subject of the invention, being already described in [Fig. 1], They are not described again here.

[0060] We observe on [Fig.3], a second mode of a first layer 385 of two slopes, 305 and / or 310, with a wheel 325 and passers 335.

[0061] In this embodiment, the glove 300 of the invention comprises: - the first side 305 comprising the tightening wheel 325 of the link 330 and a loop 335 for the passage of the link 330 and - the second side 310 comprising two loops 335.

[0062] The other characteristics of the glove which is the subject of the invention, being already described in [Fig.1] and in [Fig.2], are not described again here.

[0063] We observe on [Fig.4], a third embodiment of a first layer 485 of two slopes, 405 and / or 410, with a roller 425 and passers 435.

[0064] In this embodiment, the wheel 425 is positioned near the proximal end 110 of the glove 100 of the invention, such as that shown in [Fig.1].

[0065] The other characteristics of the glove which is the subject of the invention, being already described in [Fig.1] and in [Fig.2], are not described again here.

[0066] We observe on [Fig.5], a second layer 590 of the slopes, 505 and / or 510, of the glove 500 which is the object of the invention.

[0067] In some embodiments, the sports glove 500 further comprises a ridge 545 made of a flexible material, configured to partially surround the knurled wheel 525. Such a ridge 545 may be additional padding. The dimensions of the ridge 545 are preferably adapted to the dimensions of the knurled wheel and the dimensions of the slope 505. The ridge 545 may, for example, have the shape of an arc of a circle. The ridge 545 may have an overall semicircular shape. In other words, the ridge 545 is, for example, superimposed on the ends of the protrusion 507 of the first layer 590 of the first slope 505. Preferably, the ridge 545 has a dimension along the second axis 540 that is larger than a dimension along the second axis 540 of the knurled wheel 525.

[0068] Such a flexible material can be a foam or a gel. For example, the material is an "EVA" polymer (acronym for "Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate").

[0069] Figure 6 shows a first embodiment of a third layer 695 of the slopes 605 and / or 610 of the glove 600 which is the subject of the invention.

[0070] In embodiments, the slopes, 605 and / or 610, comprise at least three layers, 685, 690 and / or 695, of flexible materials, the bead, 645, being positioned in an intermediate layer 690 to the other two layers, 685 and 690.

[0071] As illustrated in [Fig. 2], each side, 205 and / or 210, may include a first layer 285, referred to as the "lower" layer. The lower layer 285 may be in contact with the user's skin. The lower layer 285 may, for example, include at least one flexible material. Such a flexible material may be fabric, foam, flexible plastic, leather, paper, flexible cardboard, rubber, elastomer, and / or a flexible composite. The lower layer 285 may include the loops 235, a scroll wheel support 226, and the scroll wheel 225.

[0072] Preferably, the lower layer 285 has: - a material in contact with the skin, such as an artificial, synthetic or natural textile, - a support material for 251 loops, such as leather on cardboard, positioned on the first material and - a support material for 252 loops, such as thin leather, positioned on the second material.

[0073] The first layer 285, 205 and / or 210, may comprise a contact material 250. The contact material 250 is configured to touch the skin of the user's hand and wrist.

[0074] The first layer 285, 205 and / or 210, may include a support material 251. The walk-throughs 235 may be positioned on the support material 251. The support material 251 is, for example, positioned on each slope, 205 and / or 210. Preferably, the support material 251 is positioned on the contact material 250.

[0075] The first layer 285, 205 and / or 210, may include a retaining material 252. Preferably, the retaining material 252 is positioned on an edge 236 of the walkways 235 being furthest from the first end, 206 and / or 211, of each slope, 205 and / or 210. Preferably, the retaining material 252 is positioned on the support material 251. For example, the retaining material 252 partially covers the support material 251.

[0076] The support 226 of the wheel 225 can be fixed on the support material 251. The retaining material 252 can at least partially surround the support 226 of the wheel 225.

[0077] A first seam 253 secures, for example, the loops 235 between the support material 251 and the retaining material 252. In other words, the loops 235 are sewn onto the support material 251 by the first seam 253. Each side, 205 and / or 210, may have a first seam 253. A second seam 254 may secure the support 226 of the wheel 225 onto the support material 251. Leather edges 257 may be sewn onto the first ends, 206 and / or 211, of the sides, 205 and / or 210.

[0078] In variants, the lower layer 285 has: - a 250 contact material with the skin, such as an artificial, synthetic or natural textile and - a support material 251 loops, such as leather on cardboard, positioned on the first material.

[0079] In these variants, the support 226 of the wheel 225 and the loops 235 can be held by stitching directly onto the support material 251. A border is, for example, stitched onto the first ends, 206 and / or 211, of the slopes, 205 and / or 210. The border can join the contact material 250 and the support material 251.

[0080] As illustrated in [Fig. 5], each face, 505 and / or 510, may include a second layer 590, referred to as the "intermediate" layer. The intermediate layer 590 is positioned on the lower layer 585. The intermediate layer 590 comprises, for example, at least one flexible material. Such a flexible material may be a fabric, foam, flexible plastic, leather, paper, flexible cardboard, rubber, elastomer, and / or a flexible composite. Preferably, the intermediate layer 590 has: - a covering material 560 of the first layer 585, such as a textile and - a padding material 561, such as a foam, positioned on the covering material 560.

[0081] Preferably, the intermediate layer 590 does not cover the wheel 525. In other words, the intermediate layer 590 at least partially surrounds the wheel 525.

[0082] The cover layer 560 is preferentially positioned on the passers 535 of each slope, 505 and / or 510.

[0083] The bead 545 can be formed by the padding material 561. The bead 545, positioned on the first slope 505, can cover the loops 535 and partially surround the wheel 525.

[0084] The other characteristics of the first layer, being already described in [Fig.2], are not described again here.

[0085] As illustrated in [Fig. 6], each face, 605 and / or 610, may include a third layer 695, referred to as the "top" layer. The top layer 695 is positioned on the intermediate layer 690. The top layer 695 comprises, for example, at least one flexible material. Such a flexible material may be a fabric, a flexible plastic, leather, rubber, an elastomer, and / or a flexible composite. Preferably, the top layer is leather.

[0086] Preferably, the upper layer 695 does not cover the wheel 625. In other words, the upper layer 695 at least partially surrounds the wheel 625.

[0087] In embodiments, the upper layer 695 has two separate seams, 671 and 672, fixing, respectively, the three layers, 685, 690 and / or 695, of each side, 605 and / or 610. Such a seam, 671 and / or 672, may be a double seam. The seam, 671 and / or 672, can be positioned on each end, 607 and / or 612, of the slopes, 605 and / or 610, furthest from the slit 615. In other words, each seam, 671 and / or 672, follows, for example, the shape of the slopes, 605 and / or 610. Each seam, 671 and / or 672, can begin near the proximal end 110, follow the shape of each slope, 605 and / or 610, and end near one end of the slit 615 positioned on the palm 102, such as those illustrated in [Fig. 1]. In other words, each seam, 671 and / or 672, is, for example, positioned between the two ends, 618 and 619, of the slit 615.

[0088] A border 673 can be sewn onto the first ends, 606 and / or 611, of the slopes, 605 and / or 610. The border 673 can join the intermediate layer 690 and the upper layer 695. The border 673 is, for example, continuous over the first ends, 606 and / or 611, of the slopes, 605 and / or 610, and the proximal end 110, such as that illustrated in [Fig. 1]. In other words, the border 673 is, for example, sewn onto the contours of the slit 615. Such a border 673 is preferably made of leather.

[0089] The intermediate layer 690 is positioned between the lower layer 685 and the upper layer 695.

[0090] The other characteristics of the first layer and the second layer, being already described in figures 2 and 5, are not described again here.

[0091] We observe on [Fig.7], a fourth embodiment of the first layer 785 of the slopes.

[0092] In this embodiment, each slope, 705 and / or 710, may include a first layer 785 referred to as the "lower" layer. The first layer 785 may wrap around one end 718 of the slot 715. Preferably, the wrap of the first layer 785 around the end 718 has a curved shape 756.

[0093] Preferably, the lower layer 785 has: - a material in contact with the skin, such as an artificial, synthetic or natural textile, - a support material 751 for loops 735 and the knob 725, such as leather on cardboard, positioned on the first material and - a retaining material 752 for loops 735 and wheel 725, such as a thin leather, positioned on the second material.

[0094] In other words, the retaining material 752 can bypass the end 718 of the slot 715. In other words, the retaining material 752 can have a curved shape 756 bypassing the end 718 of the slot 715.

[0095] The first layer 785 may include a first seam 753 which secures, for example, the loops 735 between the support material 750 and the retaining material 751. In other words, the loops 735 are sewn onto the support material 750 by the first seam 753. Each side, 705 and / or 710, may include a first seam 753. Preferably, each first seam 753 joins at the end 718 of the slot 715.

[0096] The other characteristics of the first layer, being already described in [Fig.2], are not described again here.

[0097] In variants (not shown), the wheel 725 is configured to be positioned on the curved shape near the end 718 of the slot 715. In other words, the glove 700 of the invention has at least two loops, each loop being positioned respectively on a slope, 705 and / or 710.

[0098] We observe on [Fig.8], a second embodiment of the second layer 890 of the slopes.

[0099] Each slope, 805 and / or 810, may include a second layer 890 called an "intermediate" layer. The second layer 890 may bypass one end 818 of the slot 815. Preferably, the second layer 890 has a shape similar to the shape of the retaining material of the first layer 785, such as that shown in [Fig. 7].

[0100] Preferably, the intermediate layer 890 has: - a covering material 860 of the first layer 885, such as a textile and - the bead 845 positioned on the covering material 860.

[0101] The bead 845 can partially surround the wheel 825. For example, the bead 845 is positioned on the first slope 805 around the wheel 825, up to the end of the first slope 805 positioned near the slot 815.

[0102] The other characteristics of the second layer, being already described in [Fig.5], are not described again here.

[0103] We observe on [Fig.9], a second embodiment of the third layer 995 of the slopes.

[0104] Preferably, the third layer 995 contours around one end 918 of the slot 915. The third layer 985 may have a shape similar to the shape of the retaining material of the first layer 785, such as that shown in [Fig. 7]. The third layer 985 may have a shape similar to the shape of the second layer 890, such as that shown in [Fig. 8].

[0105] In this embodiment, the upper layer 995 has a single seam 973 securing the three layers, 985, 990 and 995, of each slope, 605 and / or 610. Such a seam 973 may be a double seam. The seam 973 may be positioned on each end, 907 and / or 912 of the slopes, 905 and / or 910, furthest from the slit 915. Each seam 973 may start near the proximal end 110, follow the shape of the first slope 905, go around one end 918 of the slit 915 positioned on the palm 102, follow the shape of the second slope 910, stop near the proximal end 110, such as those illustrated in [Fig. 1].

[0106] The third layer 995 may have side seams 974 securing the three layers, 985, 990 and 995, of the sports glove 900, between each loop 935. Preferably, the top layer 995 has four side seams 974. The side seams 974 may be positioned on each end, 906 and / or 911 of the sides, adjacent to the slit 915. For example, each seam 974 has a length less than the width of a loop 935.

[0107] The other characteristics of the first, second and third layers of the slopes, being already described in [Fig.2], 5 and 6, are not described again here.

[0108] Figure 10 shows a cross-sectional view of the different slope layers. In some embodiments, the glove 1000, which is the subject of the invention, comprises three layers of material.

[0109] The lower layer 1085 may exhibit: - a 1050 contact material with the skin, such as an artificial, synthetic or natural textile, - a support material 1051 for loops 1035 and for the knob 1025, such as leather on cardboard, positioned on the first material and - a retaining material 1052 for loops 1035 and wheel 1025, such as a thin leather, positioned on the second material.

[0110] A first seam 1053 fixes, for example, the loops 1035, between the support material 1051 and the holding material 1052. In other words, the loops 1035 are sewn onto the support material 1051 by the first seam 1053.

[0111] A second seam 1054 fixes, for example, the support of the wheel 1025, between the support material 1051 and the retaining material 1052. In other words, the wheel 1025 can be sewn onto the support material 1051 by the first seam 1053.

[0112] A third seam 1055 fixes, for example, the contact material 1050 and the support material 1051. The third seam 1055 can be positioned on the ends, near the slot 1015, of the slopes, 1005 and 1010.

[0113] The intermediate layer 1090 may have a covering material 1060 of the first layer 1085, such as a textile. In variants (not shown), a padding material, such as foam, is positioned on the covering material 1060 of each slope, 1005 and / or 1010.

[0114] The top layer 1095 can be positioned on the middle layer 1090.

[0115] A single double seam 1073 fixes, for example, the three layers, bottom 1085, middle 1090 and top 1095.

[0116] A single border 1057 can be sewn onto the ends, near the slit 1015, of the slopes, 1005 and 1010.

[0117] The bead 1045 is, for example, positioned on the first slope 1005. The bead 1045 can at least partially surround the roller 1025. Preferably, the bead 1045 is positioned between the intermediate layer 1090 and the upper layer 1095 of the first slope 1005. In other words, the bead can be positioned between the covering material 1060 and the upper layer 1095.

[0118] The glove 1000, the subject of the invention, may include in the shell 101 a foam 1001, such as that shown in [Fig. 1]. Such a foam 1001 may be juxtaposed to the seam 1073. The foam 1001 may be positioned between the first layer 1085 and the third layer 1095.

[0119] In some embodiments, the bead material is an open-cell foam.

[0120] In variants, the bead material is a closed-cell foam.

[0121] In other variants, the bead material is a gel.

[0122] In some embodiments, the sports glove also includes an overmolding (not shown) on the wheel.

[0123] Such overmolding may involve the application of an adhesive material to the wheel. Such material application is, for example, injection molding, bonding, or any other technique known to those skilled in the art for adding material to a mechanical part. The adhesive material may be silicone, a thermoplastic, or a material alloy. Preferably, the adhesive material exhibits a high degree of adhesion to the material of the shell 101 of the glove 100, such as that shown in [Fig. 1].

[0124] Figures 11 and 12 show a schematic view, from the back and front, of a second embodiment of the glove that is the subject of the invention.

[0125] In embodiments, the glove 1100, which is the subject of the invention and covers a wrist and at least part of a hand, comprises: - a distal end 1105 configured to surround at least one joint of the hand, - an open proximal end 1110 configured to encircle the wrist, - a dorsal band 1102 configured to be juxtaposed to the proximal end 1110 and to cover the back of the wrist, the dorsal band having a tightening wheel 1130, - a slot 1115 configured to be positioned on the palm of the hand, extending from the proximal end 1110 along a first axis 1120, - a strap 1101 fixed near the proximal end 1110, the strap 1101 being configured to at least partially encircle the wrist and, at least partially cover the slot 1115 and the dorsal band 1102, - at least one loop 1125 positioned near one end of the strap 1101, - the tightening knob 1130, being configured to be actuated by rotation about a second axis 1140 perpendicular to the first axis 1120, said knob 1130 comprising a non-return device, and - a link configured to slide through each loop 1125 and wrap around the knob 1130, the wheel 1130 being configured to tighten the link 1135 in a first direction of rotation of said wheel 1130 and to loosen the link 1135 by pulling the wheel 1130.

[0126] In some embodiments, the dial 1130 is positioned on the back portion 1102. The tightening dial 1130 comprises, for example, two separate parts attached to each other by a removable fastener. Such a fastener is, for example, a magnet. A first part of the dial 1130 can be attached to the back band 1102 of the glove 1100 of the invention. A second part of the dial 1130 can be positioned on the first part of the dial 1130 by a magnet. In other words, the first and second parts are magnetized to each other. Preferably, the dial 1130 may be of the "FIDLOCK"® brand.

[0127] In embodiments, the loop 1125 is positioned on one face of the strap 1101 oriented towards the dorsal part 1102.

[0128] When a user pulls on the dial 1130, the first and second parts of the dial 1130 detach from each other by the action of the magnet. The strap 1101 can be detached from the back part 1102 and can be unwound from the wrist.

[0129] In variants, the clamping knob 1130 is positioned near the slot 1115.

[0130] In other variants (not shown), the wheel 1130 is positioned near one end of the strap 1101 and the loop 1125 is positioned on the dorsal part 1102. The wheel 1130 can be positioned on one face of the strap 1101, oriented towards the dorsal part 1102. Presentation of the invention

[0131] The present invention aims to remedy all or part of the drawbacks of the prior art.

[0132] To this end, the present invention relates to a sports glove covering a wrist and at least part of a hand, which comprises: - a distal end configured to surround at least one joint of the hand, - an open proximal end configured to wrap around the wrist, - a slit configured to be positioned on the palm of the hand, extending from the proximal end along a first axis, - two slopes positioned on either side of the slit: - a first side featuring a tightening knob for a tie, - a second slope with at least one crossing, - the tightening knob, being configured to be actuated by rotation around a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, said knob comprising a non-return device, and - a link configured to slide through each loop and wrap around the knob, the wheel being configured to tighten the link in a first direction of rotation of said wheel and to loosen the link in a second opposite direction of rotation, the second direction of rotation being blocked by the anti-return device and unlocked by pressing on the wheel or by pulling the wheel or by rotating the wheel in the second direction of rotation.

[0133] Thanks to these features, the glove has greater rigidity from the wrist to the bottom of the user's palm. Thus, the glove provides better protection for the wrist against injury during use.

[0134] Also, since the cord is less elastic than a traditional shoelace, the tightness of the glove on the user's wrist remains more constant over time. Thus, the tightness hardly loosens during use of the glove.

[0135] In addition, the precision and fineness of adjusting the tightness of the glove are improved. Indeed, the dial allows for finer and more precise adjustment of the glove's tightness on the wrist and the lower part of the palm. These features allow the user to quickly and easily tighten or loosen the glove that is the subject of the invention on his wrist without assistance from a third party.

[0136] In embodiments, the first side has at least one link passage and the second side has at least two passages.

[0137] These embodiments make it possible to improve the tightening of the glove on the user's wrist.

[0138] In embodiments, the first slope is configured to be positioned near the thumb of the hand.

[0139] These embodiments allow for better positioning of the scroll wheel on the user's hand. Indeed, the scroll wheel is protected by the volume of the thumb and palm. Thus, the risk of impacts to the scroll wheel is reduced.

[0140] In embodiments, the first slope has two passers-by and the second slope has three passers-by.

[0141] These embodiments allow for optimal tightening of the link by the knob. Thus, the two sides are brought uniformly closer to each other along the entire length of the slot.

[0142] In some embodiments, the wheel is positioned between two passers-by of the first slope.

[0143] These embodiments allow for optimal and balanced tightening of the link by the knob. Thus, the two sides are brought uniformly closer together along the entire length of the slot.

[0144] In some embodiments, the wheel is configured to be juxtaposed to the palm of the hand.

[0145] These embodiments allow the natural hollow of the user's wrist to be used to protect the wheel from shocks.

[0146] In some embodiments, the sports glove further comprises a ridge comprising a flexible material, configured to partially surround the wheel.

[0147] These embodiments allow the wheel to be protected during the use of the glove that is the subject of the invention. The wheel thus remains accessible to the user, who can operate it while wearing a pair of gloves that are the subject of the invention. In addition, the padding protects an opponent from impacts during a fight or training session.

[0148] In embodiments, the slopes comprise at least three layers of flexible materials, the bead being positioned in a layer intermediate to the other two layers.

[0149] These embodiments allow optimal protection of passers-by against impacts, the passers-by being positioned between two layers of the slopes.

[0150] Furthermore, the positioning of the layers and materials provides additional comfort to the user. Indeed, the user generally covers their palm and its textile bands on the wrist before putting on the glove that is the subject of the invention. Thus, the user does not feel the dial, the loops and / or the padding.

[0151] In some embodiments, the bead material is an open-cell foam.

[0152] These embodiments allow optimal protection of the wheel.

[0153] In embodiments, the glove of the invention includes an overmolding on the wheel.

[0154] These embodiments improve the adhesion between the glove shell material and the dial. This allows the user to interact effectively with the dial while wearing the sports gloves.
