Abstract

A finger web swimming aid embodying fingerstalls and web membranes molded to form one integral body therefrom, and wherein the web membranes are connected between side walls of each of the fingerstalls. The fingerstalls provide ends of each of tubular members allow for the first joint of each of the user's fingers to expose therefrom. Ribbed edges are configured on outer edges of each of the web membranes, which enhance strength and allow for easy removal thereof. Furthermore, a plurality of grooves are further defined on surfaces of each of the web membranes, and which provide the web membranes with a moderate degree of concavity, and functions in coordination with flexing of the fingers of the user. In particular, when necessary, easy removal of at least one finger of the three center fingers from the fingerstalls is effectuated, and which thereby facilitates manipulative movements therewith.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] (a) Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a structural design of a finger web swimming aid, and more particularly to the finger web swimming aid that provides for easy wearing on fingers of a swimmer, thereby enabling the swimmer to realize enhancement to paddling motive force by means of web membrane connections between side walls of fingerstalls, while still maintaining dexterity in movement of the fingers of the swimmer.

[0003] (b) Description of the Prior Art

[0004] A conventional web-fingered glove 10 (see FIG. 8) primary provides usage for when swimming and diving, thereupon providing functionality similar to that of flippers by means of membranes 102 connected between each of fingerstalls 101. Accordingly, upon a swimmer wearing the web-fingered glove 10 on a hand, paddling motive force of the hand of the swimmer is thereby enhanced.

[0005] However, because of hindrance resulting from thickness of the web membranes 1...
