Abstract
A glove-like waste disposal system comprises a relatively thick, heat-insulating, flexible inner glove which is placed over the hand of a user. An outer glove is then placed over the inner glove, the outer glove being made of a thin, flexible, disposable material. In use, the waste material is picked up by the user whose hand is contained within the inner glove, the outer glove is peeled or stripped off to an inside-out pouch-forming configuration which contains the picked-up waste material therein, and the outer glove with the waste material therein is disposed. The inner glove is reusable, and serves to insulate the user's hand from the temperature and "feel" of the waste material. Absorbant layers may be attached to the inner (palm) or outer (back of hand) side of the outer flexible disposable glove to absorb moisture.
Claims19
A glove-like waste material disposal system comprising:
- a flexible inner glove member which is placed over the hand of a user;
- and
- a separate flexible outer glove member which is placed over the inner glove member;
- said outer glove member completely enclosing said hand except for the hand opening therein and being made of a thin, flexible, disposable material, and said inner glove member having at least its finger and palm covering portions made of a material which is relatively thick as compared to the material of said outer glove member and of a sufficient thickness to prevent the user from substantially feeling the waste material as it is picked up with a required finger pressure;
- whereby after picking up of waste, said outer glove member is removed or stripped off of the inner glove member to an inside-out pouch forming configuration which contains the picked-up waste material in the pouch formed therein.
A glove-like waste material disposal system comprising:
- a flexible inner glove means which is placed over the hand of a user;
- and
- a separate flexible outer glove which is placed over the inner glove means;
- said outer glove completely enclosing said hand except for a hand opening therein and being made of a thin, flexible, disposable material, and said inner glove means having relatively thick finger and palm covering portions for preventing the user from feeling the waste material as it is picked up with a required finger pressure.
