Abstract
A supporting glove includes a glove base element made of fiber material, a resin coating applied to at least a part of an outer surface of the glove base element, and an inner glove made of fiber material provided inside the glove base element, wherein a relational expression of d2<d1 is satisfied, where d1 is a volume fraction of solid contents per unit volume of the glove base element, and d2 is a volume fraction of solid contents per unit volume of the inner glove.
Claims6
A supporting glove comprising:
- a glove base element made of fiber material knitted by one of 13-gauge to 18-gauge glove knitting machines;
- a first resin coating applied to at least a part of an outer surface of the glove base element;
- and
- an inner glove made of fiber material knitted by a 13-gauge or less glove knitting machine and provided inside the glove base element,
- wherein;
- a thickness of the glove base element is 0.20 mm or more and 0.80 mm or less,
- a penetration ratio of the first resin coating with respect to the thickness of the glove base element is 5% or more and 75% or less,
- a cuff of the inner glove and a cuff of the glove base element are bonded to each other, and fingertips of the inner glove and corresponding fingertips of the glove base element are bonded to each other,
- on a dorsal side, portions of the inner glove formed to correspond to first joints and second joints of a wearer's fingers in finger members of the inner glove, and portions of the glove base element formed to correspond to the first joints and the second joints of the wearer's fingers in the finger members of the glove base element, are not bonded to each other,
- a relational expression of d2<d1 is satisfied wherein d1 is a volume ratio of fiber material per unit volume 1 cm3 of the glove base element, and d2 is a volume ratio of fiber material per unit volume 1 cm3 of the inner glove, d1 being 15 volume % or more and 30 volume % or less, and d2 is 10 volume % or more and 26 volume % or less,
- the first resin coating is a foamed coating containing air cells,
- a volume ratio of solid contents per unit volume 1 cm3 of the first resin coating is 30 volume % or more and 90 volume % or less, and is more than a volume ratio of solid contents per unit volume 1 cm3 of the glove base element, and
- the first resin coating is provided with no particle clustering regions.

A method for manufacturing a supporting glove including a glove base element made of fiber material, and a first resin coating applied to at least a part of an outer surface of the glove base element, the method comprising:
- a first resin coating forming step of applying coating liquid containing resin for forming the first resin coating to at least the part of the outer surface of the glove base element to form the first resin coating;
- and
- an inner glove disposing step of disposing an inner glove inside the glove base element, the inner glove having a volume fraction of solid contents per unit volume that is less than a volume fraction of solid contents per unit volume of the glove base element,
- wherein;
- a thickness of the glove base element is 0.20 mm or more and 0.80 mm or less,
- a penetration ratio of the first resin coating with respect to the thickness of the glove base element is 5% or more and 75% or less,

- on a dorsal side, portions of the inner glove formed to correspond to first joints and second joints of a wearer's fingers in finger members of the inner glove, and portions of the glove base element formed to correspond to the first joints and the second joints of the wearer's fingers in the finger members of the glove base element, are not bonded to each other,
- a relational expression of d2<d1 is satisfied wherein d1 is a volume ratio of fiber material per unit volume 1 cm3 of the glove base element, and d2 is a volume ratio of fiber material per unit volume 1 cm3 of the inner glove, d1 being 15 volume % or more and 30 volume % or less, and d2 is 10 volume % or more and 26 volume % or less,
- the first resin coating is a foamed coating containing air cells,
- a volume ratio of solid contents per unit volume 1 cm3 of the first resin coating is 30 volume % or more and 90 volume % or less, and is more than a volume ratio of solid contents per unit volume 1 cm3 of the glove base element, and
- the first resin coating is provided with no particle clustering regions.
