Abstract

The glove application system includes a glove application module providing a housing that defines an installation cavity and an access opening that provides access to the installation cavity; a pressure system operable to generate negative pressure within the installation cavity; and a glove cartridge assembly including a cartridge belt mounted on the housing and having a plurality of glove cartridges spaced apart along the cartridge belt, wherein each glove cartridge has a glove that is releasably secured to the cartridge belt by a fastening system, the fastening system including a raised section protruding from the cartridge belt and defining an internal opening, and a lip protruding laterally from the raised section and sized to receive the wrist bead of the glove, the negative pressure generated by the pressure system inflates the gloves of the aligned glove cartridges into the installation cavity.
