- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to the field of therapeutic/exercise gloves in general and in particular to a variable tension exercising glove having a unique tensioning arrangement.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- As can be seen by reference to the following U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,527,244; 5,538,488; 3,944,220; and, 4,815,729, the prior art is replete with myriad and diverse glove constructions having a variety of different tensioning arrangements.
- While all of the aforementioned prior art constructions are more than adequate for the basic purpose and function for which they have been specifically designed, they are uniformly deficient with respect to their failure to provide a simple, efficient, and practical device to exercise a user's fingers and wrist as well as the anterior and posterior forearm muscles, biceps and triceps.
- Unfortunately the prior art constructions only extend as far back on the user's arms as their wrist and as a consequence thereof, these variable tension gloves are of only limited utility.
- Furthermore, the tensioning arrangements employed in the prior art constructions are relatively crude in operation and normally require that each of the finger tensioning bands be adjusted on an individual basis which is rather time consuming and inefficient to say the least.
- As a consequence of the foregoing situation, there has existed a longstanding need for a new and improved variable tension glove apparatus that not only extends half way up the user's forearm to exert resistance that works against the user's anterior and posterior muscles, as well as the biceps and triceps, but also includes a unique simultaneous tension adjustment feature; and, the provision of such a construction is a stated objective of the present invention.
- Briefly stated, the variable tension exercise glove that forms the basis of the present invention comprises in general a glove unit, a tensioning unit, and a tensioning adjustment unit both operatively associated with the glove member to vary the resistance applied to the glove unit at a selected angle between 0 and 50°.
- As will be explained in greater detail further on in the specification, the glove unit includes a glove member having a glove section and a gauntlet section. The tension unit in turn includes a plurality of elastic tension bands affixed on one end to the finger and thumb portions of the glove section, and a movable tension pad affixed on the other end of the elastic tension bands and adapted to be releasably engaged with a selected portion on the gauntlet section of the glove member.
- In addition, the tension adjustment unit includes: a fabric panel disposed on the gauntlet section of the glove member which is adapted to releasably engage the movable tension pad of the tension unit; and, an elongated elasticized strap element affixed on one end to a portion of the glove section wherein the other end of the elasticized strap element is adapted to releasably engage a selected portion of the fabric panel on the gauntlet panel to preposition the back of a user's hand at an angle that varies between 0° and 50°.
- These and other attributes of the invention will become more clear upon a thorough study of the following description of the best mode for carrying out the invention, particularly when reviewed in conjunction with the drawings, wherein:
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the variable tension glove construction;
- FIG. 2 is a side elevation view of the glove construction with the tension unit and the tension adjustment unit partially disengaged therefrom;
- FIG. 3 is a side elevation view of the glove construction with the tension unit and the tension adjustment unit engaged therewith;
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the glove construction with the securing straps in their disengaged state; and,
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the glove construction with the securing straps engaged over the tension adjustment unit.
- As can be seen by reference to the drawings, and in particularly to FIG. 1, the variable tension glove construction that forms the basis of the present invention is designated generally by the reference number10. The construction 10 comprises in general a glove unit 11, a
tension unit 12, and atension adjustment unit 13. These units will now be described in seriatim fashion. - As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the glove unit11 comprises a
glove member 20 having aconventional glove section 21 and a rearwardly extendingsplit gauntlet section 22 provided with an elongated opening 23 to facilitate the insertion of a user's hand, wrist, and forearm into theglove member 20 in a well recognized fashion. - In addition, the
glove section 21 of theglove member 20 is provided with a plurality of exteriorly mounted discretecurved guide elements 24 disposed at spaced locations along the rear surface of thefinger 25 andthumb 26 portions of theglove section 21 and anelongated guide element 27 that extends laterally across the back of theglove section 21 at a point spaced from the juncture of thefinger 25 andthumb 26 portions with the remainder of theglove section 21 for reasons that will be explained shortly. - Turning now to FIGS. 1 through 4, it can be seen that the
tension unit 12 comprises a plurality of elastictension band members 30 thedistal ends 31 of which are fixedly secured to the distal end of thefinger 25 and thumb portions of theglove section 21 the intermediate portions of which 32 are threaded through the plurality ofdiscrete guide elements 24 and theelongated guide element 27 and theproximal ends 33 of which are fixedly secured at spaced locations to amovable tension pad 34 the upper and lower surfaces of which are provided with both components of ahook 35 and loop 36 fastener. - Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 1, 4 and5, the
tension adjustment unit 13 comprises in general ananchor member 40 and a capture member 41; wherein, thefabric panel 42 is adapted to be selectively and releasably engaged with thehook component 35 on themovable tension pad 34 of thetension unit 12 to vary the resistance of theelastic tension bands 30 in proportion to the distance of thetension pad 34 from the tips of the user's fingers and thumb. - In addition, the capture member41 includes an elongated elasticized
capture strap element 43 having one end captively secured to the top of theelongated guide element 27 wherein, the bottom surface of the free end of thecapture strap element 43 is provided with a hook component 46 that is adapted to releasably engage both thefabric panel 42 of theanchor member 40 and theloop component 36 on top of themovable tension pad 34 to retain themovable tension pad 34 in place relative to thefabric panel 42. - It should also be noted at this juncture that the
capture strap element 43 can be employed independently of themovable tension pad 34 to initially position the back of a user's hand at an angle of from 0° to 50° relative to a horizontal surface. - As can further be appreciated by reference to FIGS. 1 through 5, the
gauntlet section 22 of theglove member 20 is further provided with a plurality of securingstrap elements 28 having free ends that havehook components 29 that are adapted to releasably engage thefabric panel 42 to the user's forearm; wherein, one or more of the securingstrap elements 28 will overlie portions of thetension unit 12 and the capture member 41. - Although only an exemplary embodiment of the invention has been described in detail above, those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that many modifications are possible without materially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of this invention. Accordingly, all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of this invention as defined in the following claims.
- Having thereby described the subject matter of the present invention, it should be apparent that many substitutions, modifications, and variations of the invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that the invention as taught and described herein is only to be limited to the extent of the breadth and scope of the appended claims.
