Abstract
Disclosed herein is are systems, methods, and devices for automatically custom-fitting one or more glove on a user hand.
Claims2
A device comprising:
- a glove chamber element comprising an outer frame portion and an inner cavity portion, wherein the inner cavity portion comprises a glove platform, and wherein the glove platform comprises a set of gloves resting on a top surface of the glove platform;
- a glove presence sensor configured to detect a presence of a first glove of the set of gloves within the glove chamber element;
- a vacuum switch component configured to activate a vacuum motor affixed to the inner cavity portion based on the detected presence of the first glove, wherein the vacuum motor is integrated into a vacuum motor holder element;
- an air pipe element affixed to the vacuum motor holder element, wherein the air pipe element is configured to pump air into the glove chamber element based on an activation of the vacuum motor, and wherein the air pipe element is configured to pump air out of the glove chamber element based on a deactivation of the vacuum motor;
- and
- a vacuum hole element affixed to the vacuum motor holder element, wherein the vacuum hole element is configured to adjust a size of an opening corresponding to the vacuum hole element, wherein the adjusted size generates an adjusted suction force within the glove chamber element based on a vacuum mechanism.

A method comprising:
- detecting, by a detection sensor mounted within an inner cavity of gloving device chamber, object data based on a presence of a glove within the inner cavity;
- triggering an activation of a vacuum motor;
- expanding a glove based on a vacuum pull force within the inner cavity generated by the activated vacuum motor;
- triggering a deactivation switch that terminates the vacuum pull force;
- and
- constricting the glove around a hand based on the deactivation switch triggering.
