Abstract
The glove application device enables the placement of a glove on a glove retainer. An inverted glove is provided to the user to simplify placement of the glove on the glove retainer. The inverted glove presents a donning surface for insertion of the user's hands when installed onto the glove retainer. A glove indicator on the glove aligns with an orientation indicator, such as a particular location on the glove retainer, a component, or a device indicator. The application device provides an indicator such as a release toggle, a device indicator, or other component of the device that informs the user of the proper orientation of the glove when placing the glove on the glove retainer.
Claims18
A glove system with a glove to be applied to a glove application device that retains the glove in an open position for placement of the glove on a hand, the glove system comprising:
- a glove attachable to at least a portion of said application device;
- a donning surface of the glove to be placed against a user's skin;
- a use surface of the glove located on an opposite side of the donning surface wherein the donning surface provides less friction than the use surface, wherein the glove is inverted within a package to place the donning surface as an outer surface of the glove when packaged;
- and
- a glove indicator located on the glove wherein the glove indicator orients the glove for installation on the glove application device, wherein the glove indicator is a visible marking.
A glove system with a glove to be applied to a glove application device that retains the glove in an open position for placement of the glove on a hand, the glove system comprising:
- a glove attachable to at least a portion of said application device;
- a donning surface of the glove to be placed against a user's skin;
- a use surface of the glove located on an opposite side of the donning surface wherein the donning surface provides less friction than the use surface, wherein the glove is inverted within a package to place the donning surface as an outer surface of the glove when packaged;
- and
- a glove indicator located on the glove, wherein the glove indicator aligns with an orientation indicator on the glove application device wherein the orientation indicator identifies the orientation of the glove for installing the glove on the glove application device.
A glove system with a glove to be applied to a glove application device wherein the glove application device retains the glove in an open position for placement of the glove on a hand of a user, the glove system comprising:
- a glove attachable to at least a portion of said application device;
- a glove indicator located on the glove wherein the glove indicator orients the glove for installation on the glove application device, wherein the glove indicator does not form an additional opening or enlarge an opening of the glove;
- a glove retainer extending outward from the glove application device wherein the glove retainer secures the glove for insertion of the hand into the glove;
- an orientation indicator on the glove application device wherein the glove installs onto the glove retainer wherein the orientation indicator aligns with the glove indicator for orienting the glove on the glove retainer.
