Glove dryer attachment for boot dryers

A glove dryer attachment for a boot dryer, comprising;

• a boot dryer attachment flange configured to mount on a boot dryer;
• an elongated hand shaped panel on the boot dryer attachment flange and including a palm surface and a dorsal surface, the panel further including a wrist section, a palm section, and at least four finger sections projecting from the palm section;
• the finger sections each including a first finger tip;
• ribs on the hand shaped panel projecting substantially normally from the palm surface and dorsal surface and defining longitudinal air duct passages, including air inlet passages along one of said palm and dorsal surfaces and air discharge passages along the other of said palm and dorsal surfaces;
• wherein the ribs extend along the finger sections to second finger tips that are spaced from the first finger tips to define open airway connections joining the air inlet passages and air discharge passages;
• and
• wherein the boot dryer attachment flange includes a baffle arranged to guide air into the intake passages and outwardly from the discharge passages.

In a boot dryer having at least one boot drying conduit, an attachment for drying gloves, comprising:

• a boot dryer attachment flange configured to mount on the boot drying conduit;

• a heated air conduit leading from the dryer base to a discharge end;
• an attachment flange mounted to the heated air conduit;
• an elongated hand shaped panel on the attachment flange and including a palm surface and a dorsal surface, the panel further including a palm section, and at least four finger sections projecting from the palm section;
• the finger sections each including a first finger tip;
• ribs on the hand shaped panel defining air duct passages, including at least one air inlet passage along one of said palm and dorsal surfaces and at least one air discharge passage along the other of said palm and dorsal surfaces;
• wherein the ribs and finger sections define open airway connections joining the air inlet passages and air discharge passages;
• and
• wherein the attachment flange includes a baffle arranged to guide air from the heated air conduit into and through the intake passage and outwardly from the discharge passage.
