Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to sports gloves. [Background technology]

[0002] Sports gloves have been devised to prevent bat slippage. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-31441 (Patent Document 1) describes a sports glove that can prevent bat slippage by printing a foamed resin on a portion of the back surface of the glove. In the sports glove described in this publication, the foamed resin is printed on the ball of the second finger and the areas corresponding to the third to fifth fingers of the wearer's palm. This makes it possible to prevent slippage between the hand and the sports glove. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the same or corresponding parts in the following drawings will be designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will not be repeated.

[0010] The configuration of a sports glove 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 7. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the sports glove 1 according to this embodiment is a sports glove worn on the hand of a wearer who grips a bat 2. Figure 2 shows a state in which the wearer is wearing the sports glove 1 and gripping the bat 2. The sports glove 1 according to this embodiment is a sports glove for hitting a baseball.

[0011] Sports glove 1 is configured to be able to receive one hand of a wearer. This hand is located, for example, near the base of grip 2a of bat 2. The wearer holds grip 2a of bat 2 while wearing sports glove 1 on this hand. This sports glove 1 is a left-handed sports glove worn on the left hand. Note that sports glove 1 in this embodiment may also be a right-handed sports glove worn on the right hand. The left-handed sports glove is configured to be a mirror image of the right-handed sports glove. Sports glove 1 may also be worn on both hands of a wearer.

[0012] Sports glove 1 mainly comprises a main body 10, a back anti-slip member 20, and a pad member 30. Main body 10 includes finger portions 11, a palm portion 12, and a wrist portion 13. The material of main body 10 is, for example, natural leather.

[0013] The finger portion 11 includes a thumb portion 11A, an index finger portion 11B, a middle finger portion 11C, a ring finger portion 11D, and a little finger portion 11E. The thumb portion 11A, the index finger portion 11B, the middle finger portion 11C, the ring finger portion 11D, and the little finger portion 11E are configured to respectively accommodate the thumb, the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger, and the little finger of the wearer's hand. The thumb portion 11A, the index finger portion 11B, the middle finger portion 11C, the ring finger portion 11D, and the little finger portion 11E are independent of each other.

[0014] Palm portion 12 is configured to be able to receive the palm of the wearer's hand. Palm portion 12 is connected to finger portions 11. Palm portion 12 is connected to thumb portion 11A, index finger portion 11B, middle finger portion 11C, ring finger portion 11D, and little finger portion 11E.

[0015] The wrist portion 13 is configured to be able to receive the wrist of the wearer. The wrist portion 13 is connected to the palm portion 12. The wrist portion 13 is disposed on the opposite side of the palm portion 12 from the finger portions 11.

[0016] 1 and 3, the back surface anti-slip member 20 is arranged on the ring finger portion 11D, the little finger portion 11E, and the back surface S1 of the palm portion 12. The back surface anti-slip member 20 is arranged on part of the back surface S1 of the ring finger portion 11D, the little finger portion 11E, and the palm portion 12. The back surface anti-slip member 20 is not arranged on the entire back surface S1 of the ring finger portion 11D, the little finger portion 11E, and the palm portion 12.

[0017] The back surface anti-slip member 20 has a higher coefficient of friction than each of the ring finger portion 11D, the little finger portion 11E, and the palm portion 12. The coefficient of friction of the back surface anti-slip member 20 is higher than the coefficient of friction of a natural leather floor surface. The material of the back surface anti-slip member 20 is, for example, at least one of synthetic leather and artificial leather. The static friction coefficient of the back surface anti-slip member 20 is, for example, 2.5 or more and 4.0 or less. This static friction coefficient is the value when a bat grip tape is used as the friction element and the friction element moving speed is 10 mm / s. The equipment used is a static and dynamic friction measuring instrument TL201Tt manufactured by Trinity Lab Co., Ltd.

[0018] The back surface non-slip member 20 is sewn to the ring finger portion 11D, the little finger portion 11E and the palm portion 12 with thread T. The back surface non-slip member 20 is sewn to the outer edge of the back surface non-slip member 20 with thread T.

[0019] Pad member 30 is attached to the back surface S1 of palm portion 12. In this embodiment, pad member 30 is sandwiched between back surface S1 of palm portion 12 and patch cloth 14. Patch cloth 14 is sewn to palm portion 12 along the outer edge of pad member 30 with thread T. Pad member 30 may also be attached to the back surface S1 of palm portion 12 by sewing.

[0020] The pad member 30 is configured to protrude from the surface S2 of the palm portion 12. The pad member 30 protrudes from a portion of the surface S2 of the palm portion 12. The pad member 30 does not protrude from the entire surface S2 of the palm portion 12.

[0021] The pad member 30 is softer than the main body 10. That is, the pad member 30 is softer than the finger portions 11 and the palm portion 12. The pad member 30 is also softer than the back surface anti-slip member 20. The pad member 30 is arranged so as not to overlap with the back surface anti-slip member 20. The material of the pad member 30 is, for example, a low-resilience foam. Specifically, the material of the pad member 30 is, for example, a foamed resin such as urethane foam or polyethylene foam. The 25% compressive load (JIS K 6401) of the material of the pad member 30 is, for example, 0.02 MPa to 0.40 MPa. If it is less than 0.02 MPa, it is too soft and difficult to feel the softness when gripping it, and if it exceeds 0.40 MPa, it is too hard and causes discomfort. The 25% compressive load (JIS K 6401) of the material of the pad member 30 is preferably 0.05 MPa to 0.15 MPa, which is a range that allows a sufficient softness to be felt and minimizes discomfort.

[0022] 1 and 4, the arrangement of the back surface anti-slip member 20 and the pad member 30 will be described in relation to the bones of the wearer's left hand 101. Fig. 4 shows the appearance and skeleton of the wearer's left hand 101 when viewed from the palm 101A side.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 4 , the index finger 101B2, middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5 each have a distal phalanx 111, a middle phalanx 112, a proximal phalanx 113, and a metacarpal 114 arranged in this order from the fingertip side. The distal phalanx 111 and the middle phalanx 112 are connected to each other via a distal interphalangeal joint 121. The middle phalanx 112 and the proximal phalanx 113 are connected to each other via a proximal interphalangeal joint 122. The proximal phalanx 113 and the metacarpal 114 are connected to each other via a metacarpophalangeal joint 123. A metacarpal head 114A is located at the end of the metacarpal 114 on the proximal phalanx 113 side. A metacarpal shaft 114B is located on the opposite side of the metacarpal head 114A from the metacarpophalangeal joint 123. The metacarpal head 114A bulges out from the metacarpal shaft 114B. In the thumb 101B1, the distal phalanx 111, the proximal phalanx 113, and the metacarpal 114 are arranged in this order from the fingertip side. In the thumb 101B1, the distal phalanx 111 and the proximal phalanx 113 are connected via a first interphalangeal joint 124, and the proximal phalanx 113 and the metacarpal 114 are connected via a metacarpophalangeal joint 123.

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the back surface anti-slip member 20 includes a metacarpal anti-slip portion 21, a ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and a little finger anti-slip portion .

[0025] The metacarpal non-slip portion 21 is arranged to cover the metacarpal head 114A of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. The metacarpal non-slip portion 21 is arranged to cover only the metacarpal head 114A of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. The metacarpal non-slip portion 21 is arranged on the palm 101A side to straddle the metacarpal head 114A of each of the metacarpal bones 114 of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5.

[0026] The metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is positioned so as not to cover the metacarpal shaft 114B of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. The metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is positioned so as not to cover the metacarpal 114 of each of the thumb 101B1, index finger 101B2, and middle finger 101B3. The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are each positioned from the metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 to between the proximal interphalangeal joint 122 and the distal interphalangeal joint 121 of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are each positioned so as to straddle the proximal interphalangeal joint 122 of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. Each of the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 is arranged to span from the base of the middle phalange 112 to the base of the proximal phalange 113 of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. Each of the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 is arranged so as not to reach the distal interphalangeal joint 121. Each of the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 is arranged so as not to cover from the distal interphalangeal joint 121 to the fingertip of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5.

[0027] The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are not positioned at the center CP of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5 in the direction in which the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E are aligned, but are positioned on both sides of the center CP of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. In other words, the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are not positioned on the pads of the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E in the direction in which the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E are aligned, but are positioned on both sides of the fingers. The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are configured to fill the gap between the back surface S1 of the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E and both sides of the finger. The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 have a uniform width on both sides. Each of the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 is configured to extend linearly from the base of the finger to the tip.

[0028] The pad member 30 is arranged to cover the metacarpal head 114A of the index finger 101B2. The pad member 30 is arranged to cover only the metacarpal head 114A of the index finger 101B2. The pad member 30 is arranged to cover the metacarpal head 114A of the metacarpal bone 114 of the index finger 101B2 on the palm 101A side. The pad member 30 is arranged not to cover the metacarpal shaft 114B and metacarpophalangeal joint 123 of the index finger 101B2. The pad member 30 is arranged not to cover the metacarpal bones 114 of the thumb 101B1, middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5. The pad member 30 is arranged not to overlap the proximal palmar crease of the palm.

[0029] 1 and 5, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude toward the back side from back surface S1 of palm portion 12. Metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude from back surface S1 of palm portion 12 in a direction perpendicular to back surface S1.

[0030] 1 and 6, ring finger anti-slip portion 22 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude from back surface S1 of ring finger portion 11D toward the rear side. Ring finger anti-slip portion 22 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude from back surface S1 of ring finger portion 11D in a direction perpendicular to back surface S1.

[0031] 1 and 7, little finger anti-slip portion 23 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude from back surface S1 of little finger portion 11E toward the rear side. Little finger anti-slip portion 23 of back surface anti-slip member 20 is configured to protrude from back surface S1 of little finger portion 11E in a direction perpendicular to back surface S1.

[0032] 1 and 8, pad member 30 is sandwiched between back surface S1 of palm portion 12 and patch cloth 14, and patch cloth 14 is sewn to palm portion 12 along the outer edge of pad member 30 with thread T. In this manner, pad member 30 is attached to palm portion 12. In this embodiment, pad member 30 protrudes from surface S2 of palm portion 12. Pad member 30 is configured to protrude perpendicular to surface S2 of palm portion 12.

[0033] 5 to 8, the height dimension of pad member 30 from the back surface S1 of palm portion 12 is greater than the height dimension of back surface anti-slip member 20 from the back surface S1 of palm portion 12, ring finger portion 11D, and little finger portion 11E. The thickness of pad member 30 is, for example, 2 mm or more.

[0034] 1 and 2, when the wearer grips bat 2, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is positioned in an area facing a portion of each of ring finger 11D and little finger 11E. In other words, when the wearer grips bat 2, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is covered by each of ring finger 11D and little finger 11E. When the wearer grips bat 2, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is not positioned in an area facing index finger 11B and middle finger 11C. In other words, when the wearer grips bat 2, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is not covered by index finger 11B and middle finger 11C.

[0035] Back surface anti-slip member 20 is disposed in an area where a large shear force acts on sports glove 1 when the wearer grips and swings bat 2. This shear force acts along the surface S2 of finger portions 11 and palm portion 12 due to a force acting on grip 2a of bat 2 due to centrifugal force during a swing.

[0036] Next, the effects of the sports glove 1 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0037] According to the sports glove 1 of this embodiment, the metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is arranged so as to cover the metacarpal head 114A of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5, but not cover the metacarpal shaft 114B of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5, and not cover the metacarpal 114 of each of the thumb 101B1, the index finger 101B2, and the middle finger 101B3. The ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are each arranged from the metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 to between the proximal interphalangeal joint 122 and the distal interphalangeal joint 121 of each of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. Therefore, the metacarpal anti-slip portion 21, the ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 can prevent the sports glove 1 from slipping off the hand. Additionally, metacarpal anti-slip portion 21, ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and little finger anti-slip portion 23 are arranged only in areas of sports glove 1 where a large shear force acts when the wearer grips and swings bat 2. This improves the fit compared to when metacarpal anti-slip portion 21, ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and little finger anti-slip portion 23 are arranged over the entire surface of sports glove 1. This allows for a sufficient increase in the swing speed of bat 2.

[0038] According to the sports glove 1 of this embodiment, the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are not located at the center CP of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5 in the direction in which the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E are arranged, but are located on both sides of the center CP of the ring finger 101B4 and the little finger 101B5. Therefore, the ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and the little finger anti-slip portion 23 are not located on the finger pads of the ring finger 11D and the little finger 11E, which are sensitive to touch, and therefore do not impair the fit. This further improves the fit.

[0039] Additionally, ring finger anti-slip portion 22 and little finger anti-slip portion 23 are disposed on both sides of ring finger portion 11D and little finger portion 11E, respectively, so that the gaps between back surface S1 of ring finger portion 11D and little finger portion 11E and both sides of the finger can be filled, thereby making it possible to even out the pressure acting on the finger.

[0040] According to sports glove 1 of this embodiment, back surface anti-slip member 20 has a higher coefficient of friction than each of ring finger portion 11D, little finger portion 11E, and palm portion 12. Therefore, back surface anti-slip member 20 can effectively prevent slippage between the hand and sports glove 1.

[0041] Furthermore, back surface anti-slip member 20 is sewn with thread T to ring finger portion 11D, little finger portion 11E, and palm portion 12. Therefore, the strength of back surface anti-slip member 20 can be ensured compared to when back surface anti-slip member 20 is printed.

[0042] According to the sports glove 1 of this embodiment, the padding member 30 is positioned to cover the metacarpal head 114A of the index finger 101B2, but not to cover the metacarpal shaft 114B and metacarpophalangeal joint 123 of the index finger 101B2, and not to cover the metacarpal bones 114 of the thumb 101B1, middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5. This makes it difficult for the index finger 101B2 to exert force. This allows the grip 2a of the bat 2 to be gripped closer to the little finger 101B5, thereby increasing the radius of rotation of the bat 2. This further improves the swing speed of the bat 2.

[0043] Additionally, pad member 30 is configured to protrude from surface S2 of palm portion 12. Therefore, around index finger 101B2, where a gap is likely to form between grip 2a of bat 2 and surface S2 of palm portion 12, pad member 30 can fill the gap between grip 2a of bat 2 and surface S2 of palm portion 12. This increases the contact area between surface S2 of palm portion 12 and grip 2a of bat 2, thereby increasing the frictional force between surface S2 of palm portion 12 and grip 2a of bat 2. This allows the wearer to swing bat 2 with less force. As a result, the swing speed of bat 2 can be further improved.

[0044] Next, with reference to FIG. 9, a configuration of a modified example of sports glove 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0045] In a modified example of sports glove 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention, back surface anti-slip member 20 is arranged on at least two adjacent fingers among middle finger 11C, ring finger 11D, and little finger 11E, and on back surface S1 of palm 12. In FIG. 9, back surface anti-slip member 20 is arranged on middle finger 11C, ring finger 11D, and little finger 11E, and on back surface S1 of palm 12.

[0046] The back surface anti-slip member 20 includes a metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 and at least two adjacent portions of a middle finger anti-slip portion 24, a ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and a little finger anti-slip portion 23. In FIG. 9, the back surface anti-slip member 20 includes a metacarpal anti-slip portion 21, a middle finger anti-slip portion 24, a ring finger anti-slip portion 22, and a little finger anti-slip portion 23.

[0047] The metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is arranged to cover at least two adjacent metacarpal heads 114A of the middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5 on which the back-surface anti-slip member 20 is arranged. The metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is arranged to cover only the metacarpal heads 114A of each of the middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5. The metacarpal anti-slip portion 21 is arranged on the palm 101A side so as to straddle the metacarpal heads 114A of each metacarpal bone 114 of the middle finger 101B3, ring finger 101B4, and little finger 101B5.
