Abstract
A protective hand covering for adhering to the user's hand. Pressure-sensitive adhesive is applied to the back surface of a sheet of thin flexible film, which is shaped to cover a protected area of the users hand. The pressure-sensitive adhesive provides a sufficiently strong bond to prevent the hand covering from being inadvertently dislodged, but a sufficiently weak bond to allow the hand covering to be removed without injuring the user. The film is sufficiently impervious to contaminates to prevent the transfer of contaminates from the substance or object being handled to the user and vice versa.
Claims7
A hand covering system, comprising:
- a stack of protective hand coverings, each made of a thin, flexible plastic film having an adhesive side;
- and
- wherein the stack of protective hand coverings is packaged in tablet format such that individual coverings are at least temporarily joined so that use of one of the coverings causes the next covering on the stack to be staged for subsequent use.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
