Benefits of technology

[0007]In view of the above problems, the present invention is provide a wrist glove, so as to solve the problem in the conventional glove cannot effectively maintain the user at a fixed stance to result in deviations or errors when playing golf, and solve the problem that the supporting strip in the conventional glove cannot be replaced, increased, or reduced randomly selectively as desired according to the user's requirements, and capable of enhancing an effect of protecting the wrist.
[0008]In order to achieve the above objective, the present invention provides a wrist glove, applicable for wrapping a user's hand, wrist, and forepart of forearm, so as to assist the user to restrict the wrist from turning, moving and bending during sports, and to maintain a fixed stance when swinging. The wrist glove includes a glove portion, a wrist-guard portion, a first accommodating portion, a second accommodating portion, a third accommodating portion, and at least one supporting member. The glove portion has a finger portion and a palm portion, and the finger portion and the palm portion wrap a plurality of fingers and a palm of the hand respectively. The palm portion has a palm center portion corresponding to the inner side of the palm, a palm back portion corresponding to the other side of the palm, and a hand knife portion corresponding to a hand knife part of the palm. The wrist-guard portion is connected to the other side of the palm portion opposite to the finger portion, and wraps the wrist and the forepart of the forearm. The first accommodating portion is disposed on a surface of the wrist-guard portion and the palm back portion, and has at least three pockets arranged side by side, which are corresponding to a second metacarpal, a left side of the second metacarpal, and a right side of the second metacarpal of the palm respectively. The second accommodating portion is disposed on a surface of the wrist-guard portion and the palm center portion, and has one to three uniformly-arranged parallel pockets. The third accommodating portion is disposed on a surface of the wrist-guard portion and the hand knife portion. The at least one supporting member is randomly selectively disposed in the first, second, and third accommodating portions as the user wish to enhance the improvement of golfing.
[0009]The efficacy of the present invention lies in that, as for the wrist glove provided in the present invention, supporting members are disposed corresponding to the user's hand back, the palm center, and the hand knife part, so as to prevent the wrist from bending towards the direction of the hand back, the palm center, and the hand knife during sport or swinging, and to effectively maintain a certain stance of the wrist. In addition, in the glove of the present invention, three supporting members are disposed on the user's second metacarpal and on two sides of the second metacarpal, such that the palm may not over bend towards the direction of the thumb, and meanwhile, the glove of the present invention also enables the thumb to move freely. Furthermore, in the glove of the present invention, the kind and number of the supporting members can be replaced, increased, or reduced randomly selectively at any time according to the user's requirements, so as to offer the best conformable effect to the user. Therefore, the glove of the present invention makes the user unconsciously stabilize the wrist, restrict the wrist from over-turning, over-moving and over-bending, and has functions of protecting the wrist and rectifying the improper wrist bending stance. Furthermore, it can help a beginner to pick up the correct key point and stance more easily. Another objective of the present invention is that, after the user has mastered the correct habitual actions in each stance, all the supporting members can be taken out, and if no supporting members is installed therein, the wrist glove still has the function as a soft wrist-guard (because the wrist glove is usually made by, for example, fabrics of elastic material with flexible elasticity). Furthermore, the glove portion and the wrist-guard portion of the wrist glove can be separated into two parts, that is, a glove and a wrist-guard capable of being used respectively.

Problems solved by technology

When the club is swung up to reach the top point, the controlling of the wrist's bending extent is often neglected, and when the club is swung down to hit the ball, the bending of the wrist is still not correct, and as a result, the impact face is not correct, and thus causing the hook or slice, and the hitting distance is also affected.
Furthermore, when the golfer down swings to follow through, slightly bending changes may occur to the wrist because of quick swing, and the impact point is also changed, as a result, it is impossible to accurately hit the golf center with the impact face.
All the above various slightly incorrect actions may result in an incorrect impact point, so as to affect the flying direction and the distance of the ball.
This is the general problem for common golfers or beginners.
Although the bending problem of a part of the palm can be solved, the assisting effect is still quite limited.
In addition, the number and kind of the supporting strip in the golf glove 2 cannot be changed, so the supporting power and strength offered by the supporting strip cannot be changed depending upon different users to satisfy the individual comfort requirement, which may result in inconvenience for the user.

Embodiment Construction

[0026]In order to make the object, structure, features, and functions of the present invention more comprehensible, preferred embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.

[0027]Referring to FIGS. 2A and 2B, a wrist glove 10 in a first embodiment of the present invention is mainly applied as a golf glove, so as to make the user maintain a certain stance of the hand and wrist when playing golf, to stabilize the wrist, to restrict the wrist, and to prevent the wrist from over-turning, over-moving and over-bending, such that it has functions of protecting the wrist and rectifying improper wrist bending stance. However, the wrist glove 10 of the present invention is not limited to a golf glove, but also can be applied to other sports or operations and activities, in which the palm stance is required to be maintained and the wrist is required to be stabilized.

[0028]During the process of playing golf, when the club is swung to reach the top point, the controlling of t...

A wrist glove is used to assist a user to restrict a wrist from turning, moving and bending to maintain a certain stance during sports. The wrist glove includes a glove portion, a wrist-guard portion, a first accommodating portion, a second accommodating portion, a third accommodating portion, and at least one supporting member. The glove portion includes a finger portion and a palm portion. The wrist-guard portion is connected to the other side of the palm portion opposite to the finger portion. The first accommodating portion, the second accommodating portion, and the third accommodating portion are disposed on the wrist-guard portion and a palm portion respectively. The supporting member is randomly accommodated in at least one of the first, second, and third accommodating portions selectively.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a wrist glove. More particularly, the present invention relates to a wrist glove capable of assisting a user to restrict a wrist from turning, moving and bending to maintain a stance during sport.[0003]2. Related Art[0004]Generally, when playing golf, the bending extent of the golfer's wrist in guiding a golf club must be properly controlled during swinging. As for common golfers, on the basis of mastering many crucial skill points, if both a correct griping stance and an address stance are correct, different turning, moving and bending changes occur once the wrist is swung when swinging of the golf club. When the club is swung up to reach the top point, the controlling of the wrist's bending extent is often neglected, and when the club is swung down to hit the ball, the bending of the wrist is still not correct, and as a result, the impact face is not correct, and thus causing the hook ...
