ABSTRACT:
A one piece multi-purpose hand-cushioning device providing protection to the palm area of the hand from trauma associated with athletic and job-related activities. The device embodies a grip enhancement feature useful in many activities requiring prolonged use of the hands, such as driving, carpentry, etc., and may be used as a therapeutic aid for users with physical limitations due to crippling effects of arthritis, muscular dystrophy, and other diseases effecting the joints and muscles of the hands and fingers. The pad is manufactured from die cut neoprene with a bonded nylon backing, with or without an additional bonded raised cushion in the palm area. Four finger holes are provided thus eliminating the requirement for any type of fasteners. The object to be gripped is thus held between the fingers and the pad more securely and with less effort than with the hand alone. Because of its symmetrical design, the pad may be worn on either hand.
