Description

A type of anti-abrasion glove for pathology technician slides Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical protective gloves, and in particular to an anti-abrasion glove for pathology technicians to slide tissues. Background Technology

[0002] Pathology technicians wear disposable medical latex gloves during their daily slide preparation work. These gloves are convenient to wear, effectively isolate germs, and offer high protection at a cost-effective price. The handwheel on the right side of the pathology microtome is a crucial part of the machine, used to control the movement during the slide preparation process, helping to achieve precise slide operations. Technicians' right hands inevitably experience varying degrees of abrasion, skin breakage, and bleeding when rotating the handwheel for extended periods. This hand pain significantly impacts their work mood and the smoothness of their work. Wearing regular medical latex gloves cannot prevent or solve these problems. Switching to thicker medical gloves or other gloves would increase the burden on the hands during slide preparation and retrieval, restrict finger dexterity, and greatly reduce work efficiency.

[0003] In view of this, it is necessary to design a non-abrasion glove for pathology technicians to slide tissues in order to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pathology technician's anti-abrasion glove for slides that can effectively prevent damage to specific areas of the pathology technician's hands without increasing hand burden or restricting finger dexterity.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A type of abrasion-resistant glove for pathology technician slides, comprising:

[0007] The glove body has abrasion-resistant parts made of soft material with a thickness of 0.2-0.5cm on the palm side of the glove body, at the metacarpophalangeal joint and the radial edge of the thumb.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the anti-wear part includes a first anti-wear layer and a second anti-wear layer arranged sequentially in the direction away from the palm, and an elastic layer located between the two anti-wear layers.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the thickness of the elastic layer is less than or equal to 0.2 cm.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the elastic layer is made of sponge.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, the anti-wear layer is made of silicone or rubber.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the side of the second anti-wear layer away from the first anti-wear layer is frosted.

[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, the palm part of the glove body is also provided with an anti-slip layer.

[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the anti-slip layer is composed of a number of spaced protrusions.

[0015] As a further improvement of this utility model, the wrist portion of the glove body is also provided with a tightening structure.

[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model, the tightening structure is a hook and loop fastener structure.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. This utility model provides abrasion-resistant parts made of soft material on the palm side of the glove body, at the metacarpophalangeal joints and the radial edge of the thumb. This can effectively prevent damage to specific areas of the pathology technician's hand. At the same time, by controlling the thickness of the abrasion-resistant parts within the range of 0.2-0.5cm, it can provide certain protection to the corresponding areas of the hand while avoiding the restriction of finger dexterity due to the abrasion-resistant parts being too hard or too thick, thus affecting the pathology technician's operation.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] It should also be noted that, in order to avoid obscuring the present invention with unnecessary details, only the structures and / or processing steps closely related to the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, while other details that are not closely related to the present invention are omitted.

[0026] Additionally, it should be noted that the terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. This utility model provides an anti-abrasion glove for pathology technician slides, comprising:

[0028] The glove body 10 has abrasion-resistant part 20 made of soft material with a thickness of 0.2-0.5cm on the palm side of the metacarpophalangeal joint and the radial edge of the thumb.

[0029] Because pathologists need to rotate handwheels for extended periods to prepare slides, the metacarpophalangeal joints and the radial edge of the thumb exert significant force during this process, easily leading to varying degrees of hand injury. Therefore, this invention effectively prevents damage to these areas by incorporating anti-abrasion portions 20 at these locations, providing better hand protection. Furthermore, pathological slide preparation is a delicate procedure, requiring slide handling during the process. If gloves are too thick or the protective area is too large (e.g., the anti-abrasion portion 20 extends from the palm to the fingers), it may affect the pathologist's tactile sensitivity and finger dexterity, thus impacting the procedure. This invention addresses this by placing the anti-abrasion portion 20 at the metacarpophalangeal joints and the radial edge of the thumb, controlling its thickness to within the range of 0.2-0.5 cm. This provides adequate protection without compromising finger dexterity due to excessive thickness, thus avoiding ineffective slide preparation and handling, or insufficient thickness that renders the anti-abrasion portion ineffective.

[0030] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, the anti-abrasion part 20 includes a first anti-abrasion layer 21 and a second anti-abrasion layer 22 arranged sequentially in the direction away from the palm, and an elastic layer 23 located between the two anti-abrasion layers. Exemplarily, the elastic layer 23 is made of sponge, and the anti-abrasion layer is made of silicone or rubber; preferably, the anti-abrasion layer is made of silicone. In this example, the first anti-abrasion layer 21 is a first silicone anti-abrasion layer, the second anti-abrasion layer 22 is a second silicone anti-abrasion layer, and the thickness of the sponge layer is less than or equal to 0.2 cm. Silicone is soft, not easily broken or damaged, and has a skin-like feel, while sponge has a certain elasticity and can buffer friction and reduce wear. This invention, by combining silicone and sponge to prepare the anti-abrasion part 20, can effectively improve the protective effect of the anti-abrasion part 20. In addition, both silicone and sponge have a certain degree of breathability, which also makes the anti-abrasion glove have good wearing comfort.

[0031] Specifically, the side of the second anti-wear layer 22 away from the first anti-wear layer 21 is frosted, which can effectively improve the anti-slip effect of the anti-wear part 20.

[0032] Specifically, the palm area of ​​the glove body 10 is also provided with an anti-slip layer to improve the anti-slip effect of the anti-abrasion glove during use. For example, the anti-slip layer consists of a number of spaced protrusions.

[0033] Specifically, the wrist portion of the glove body 10 is also provided with a tightening structure. For example, the tightening structure is a Velcro adhesive structure, including a cotton surface 31 wrapped around the wrist portion and a tightening strap 32 fixed at one end to the wrist portion. The tightening strap 32 is provided with hooks that can be glued to the cotton surface 31, so that the wrist portion can be tightened according to the different fixation habits of different pathologists during use.

[0034] Specifically, the glove body 10 is made of medical latex material.

[0035] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
