Problems solved by technology

These previously known gloves, however, have not proven wholly satisfactory in use.
One disadvantage of these previously known gloves is that the moisturizer or hand lotion was concentrated at various locations within the interior of the glove.
As such, the hand lotion was applied unevenly to the user's hand while the glove was worn.
A still further disadvantage of these previously known gloves is that the moisturizer would seep through the glove and to the outer surface of the glove.
In many situations, for example if the glove were worn at night, such transfer of the lotion to the other surface is unacceptable.

Embodiment Construction

[0015] With reference first to FIGS. 1 and 2, a preferred embodiment of the glove 10 of the present invention is shown. The glove 10 comprises a sheath 12 having both an inside surface 14 (FIG. 2) and an outer surface 16 (FIG. 1).

[0016] The sheath 12 is dimensioned so that a human hand will fit within the inside 14 of the sheath 12. The sheath 12 may be made in any desirable size in order to accommodate different sizes of hands. Furthermore, although the glove 10 is shown as having fingers, the glove 10 may also be in the form of a mitt.

[0017] With reference now particularly to FIGS. 2 and 3, the sheath 12 preferably includes a non-woven fibrous material layer 20 on its inside surface 14. The fibrous layer 20 may be constructed from any desired fibrous material, such as cotton. Preferably, the fibrous material 20 is inexpensive so that the overall glove 10 is disposable after each use.

[0018] As best shown in FIG. 3, the fibrous layer 14 is impregnated with a skin lotion and / or sk...

Abstract

A glove having a sheath with an inside surface dimensioned to receive a human hand. The sheath is constructed of a material impregnated with a skin lotion. A barrier layer is then disposed around an outside surface of the sheath and this barrier layer is constructed of a material substantially impermeable to the skin lotion. In practice, the gloves are typically worn at night thus moisturizing the user's hands while the barrier layer protects the bed sheet and other clothing from the skin lotion.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] I. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a therapeutic glove. [0003] II. Description of Related Art [0004] There are a number of previously known gloves having hand lotion or other moisturizers contained on the glove for moisturizing and / or applying hand lotion to the user while the user wears the glove. These previously known gloves, however, have not proven wholly satisfactory in use. [0005] One disadvantage of these previously known gloves is that the moisturizer or hand lotion was concentrated at various locations within the interior of the glove. As such, the hand lotion was applied unevenly to the user's hand while the glove was worn. [0006] A still further disadvantage of these previously known gloves is that the moisturizer would seep through the glove and to the outer surface of the glove. Consequently, when the glove would contact another surface, such as a bed sheet, the lotion from the glove would transfer onto ...
