Benefits of technology

[0008] The present invention provides for a single golf glove for increasing the flying distance of golf ball. The golf glove of this invention has an insert that provide an additional indirect bouncing force to the grip of a golf club when the head of the club impacts a golf ball. The insert is made of synthetic elastomer such as polyurethane, silicon rubber, EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymer, EMA (Ethylene Methyl Acetate copolymer), or EAA (Ethylene Acrylic Acetate copolymer). The insert has a planar shape that fits to the concave inner surface of human palm. The insert is firmly attached to the inner surface of the palm side of a golf glove.

Problems solved by technology

In other words, the physical properties of natural rubber are unstable for manufacturing long life product.
None of the prior art provide a golf glove providing additional indirect bouncing force to an impacted golf ball to increase the flying distance.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]FIG. 1 is a perspective drawing illustrating the action of force around a golfer's finger (1) of grip (2). Here the grip (2) means the hand of a golfer gripping the handle (3) of a golf club (4). When a golf player hit a golf ball (5), the repulsion force (6) acts to the opposite direction of the golf ball (5). Due to the pivot point provided by a golfer's finger (1), usually the second finger, the handle (3) rotates to the glof ball's direction and renders a force (7) to the insde palm of a golfer (not shown here).

[0015]FIG. 2 is a perspective drawing illustrating the action of the force (7) by a handle of a golf club (3) and the anti-action of the force (8) by the insert (9) of this invention. As the handle (3) of a golf club gives a force (7) to the inside palm of a golf player, the force (7) hit the insert (9) of this invention, which is placed inside of a golf glove (10) worn by a player. Then the repusion force (8), developed by an insert (9) of elastic material, pushes...

Abstract

A golf glove for increasing the flying distance of golf ball has an insert that provide a repulsion forces to the grip of a golf club when the head of the club impacts a golf ball. The insert is made of synthetic elastomer such as polyurethane, silicon rubber, EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymer, EMA (Ethylene Methyl Acetate copolymer), or EAA (Ethylene Acrylic Acetate copolymer). The insert has a planar shape that fits to the concave inner surface of human palm. The insert is firmly attached to the inner surface of the palm side of a golf glove.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] Most of golf devices for increasing flying distance of a impacted golf ball are regarding the golf club and the golf ball itself. Meanwhile, most of improvements to golf gloves are to assist hold the grip of the club more firmly or correctly. With all of the improvements, there is still another chance to improve the flying distance of an impacted golf ball. Reinforced bouncing force from the palm of a player. [0002] 1. Technical Field [0003] This device relates to sports gloves used in the art of golf aids, more particularly to improve flying distance of an impacted golf ball. [0004] 2. Description of Prior Art [0005] U.S. Pat. No. 325,968 to Rawlings illustrates a glove, having an India-rubber pad in the palm, for base ball players and cricket players for the prevention of the bruising of the hand when catching the hard ball. The rubber pad is covered by buck skin at both side and more than two layers are developed in the palm side of the glove. T...
