AI Technical Summary
Existing protective measures such as gloves and intermediate barrier objects like tissues or toothpicks are inadequate for preventing contact transmission of viruses and bacteria, as they are not reusable, can harbor pathogens, and pose risks of secondary pollution.
A self-contained finger sleeve made of elastic material, comprising a cover, a thumb pocket, and a four-finger pocket connected via a U-shaped strap, allowing for easy use, storage, and reuse, with anti-slip protrusions and a fixing structure to prevent direct contact and secondary contamination.
The self-contained finger sleeve provides durable, ergonomic protection by enclosing potentially contaminated surfaces when not in use, reducing the risk of secondary pollution and allowing safe interaction with surfaces without direct contact, enhancing safety and durability.
