ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention related generally to gloves and more specifically to gloves having a substance incorporated therein within a description of the purpose and product imprinted on the packaging or accompanying literature. The gloves have a permeable inner palm layer and a compartment for the storage of additional material.
2. Description of the Prior Art
There are other hand coverings designed for cleaning. Typical of these is U.S. Pat. No. 1,346,683 issued to Reynolds on Jul. 13, 1920.
Another patent was issued to Bireley et al on Apr. 30, 1935 as U.S. Pat. No. 2,030,494. Yet another U.S. Pat. No. 3,151,333 was issued to Scholz on Oct. 6, 1964 and still yet another was issued on Feb. 22, 1972 to Grzyll as U.S. Pat. No. 3,643,386.
Another patent was issued to Ortolivo on Jun. 10, 1986 as U.S. Pat. No. 4,593,427. Yet another U.S. Pat. No. 4,621,388 was issued to Ortolivo on Nov. 11, 1986. Another was issued to Barber on Jan. 1, 1991 as U.S. Pat. No. 4,980,943 and still yet another was issued on Dec. 14, 1999 to Borucki-Mastej as U.S. Pat. No. 6,000,060.
Another patent was issued to Jackson on Aug. 8, 2000 as U.S. Pat. No. 6,098,234. Yet another U.K. Patent No. GB 2,108,372 was issued to Hendrie on Nov. 1, 1982. Another was issued to Stone on Oct. 30, 1991 as U.K. Patent No. GB 2,260,889 and still yet another was issued on Dec. 5, 1996 to Moore as WIPO Patent No. WO 96/38061.
A hand covering a textile body, and a rubber membrane vulcanized upon the outer surface only of the body said membrane having a plurality of closely-arranged definite projections forming a roughened gripping surface approximately coextensive with the palm and finger portions of the textile body, the area uncovered by the projections being slight relative to covered by them.
A device of the character described, comprising: a flexible and impervious covering for the hand of a user; and a flexible pad on the outer surface of the covering; the body of the pad being of erasive rubber-like material having spaced absorbent fibers embedded therein and held thereby; and, said fibers being exposed at the outer surface of the pad, and extending obliquely inward therefrom.
A hand covering having an abrasive surface for foods and the like comprising, in combination an inner fabric liner having palm, finger, and thumb portions and an outer surface, an impervious flexible material bonded to said liner outer surface forming a continuous film thereover, an outer surface defined on said film, a plurality of sharp-edged, abrasive granules bonded to said film outer surface, said granules being located on said film outer surface on palm portion, the inside of said finger portion, and entirely over and about said thumb portion.
Hand apparels, gloves and mittens, having abrasive material secured to the hand apparel at effective working areas such as extending beyond and partially around an extending member, finger or thumb, to avoid cleaning and abrading contact with an objecting while providing various advantages and protections to the user.
There is herein disclosed a cleaning and scouring glove having a flexible body including a palm, a thumb, and finger stalls, the finger stalls including a second row of phalanges. Disposed upon the second row of phalanges in the knuckle area of the middle three fingers are three ovoid scouring or cleaning units. In the palm and inner-finger region is located an upper and lower cleaning or abrasive surface, the upper surface covering substantially the entire upper-palm and inner-finger area, and the lower surface covering substantially the entire lower-palm area, the upper and lower surfaces being separated by a transverse linear separation of about ⅛ inch, this linear separation corresponding generally to the natural transverse fold in the palm, the separation functioning to enhance the flexibility of the palm area of the glove to facilitate the complete clenching of the fist of the user in order to make possible the application of considerable force and pressure by the user when the cleaning glove is held in a position of a clenched fist with pressure and reciprocal motion applied by the user between the second row of phalanges of the knuckle and the rigid surface to be cleaned by the disclosed waterproof cleaning glove. Also disclosed are means for the attachment and removability of the cleaning surfaces and units to provide a range of different cleaning mechanisms. The cleaning units may include a cellulose layer capable of rotating detergent in solution.
There is herein disclosed a cleaning scouring glove having a flexible body including a palm, a thumb, and finger stalls. Disposed upon the stalls are scouring or cleaning units with flanges around the units. Also disclosed is a sponge for the attachment and removability from the glove below the scouring or cleaning units.
A cleaning glove which includes a glove base having a side to which there is attached a primary layer of a tufted blended yarn tufted to the glove base and one or more fibrous bristle portions or strips. The blended yarn is made by weaving together three or more individual yarns including one yarn made of acrylic fibers, wool fibers or polyester fibers.
A waterproof, scouring glove comprising a glove-like sheath having an abrasive material disposed along the entire outer surface so that a user may scour a kitchen implement or similar item without the need to grasp a separate scouring pad or sponge.
A cleaning system that is convenient and efficient. The cleaning system includes a glove assembly, a wash cloth assembly, and a buffer cloth assembly. The glove assembly includes a cloth glove shell with an elastic wrist band, six hook and pile scrubber fasting sections, six detachable scrub sections, an elongated accessory hook and pile fastener strip secured to the palm area of the glove shell, and a glove assembly soap receiving compartment within the glove shell that is accessible through an access opening formed through an interior palm surface of the glove shell and having a hook and pile closure sealing flap for sealing the access opening.

of scouring material is secured to the glove to provide a scouring surface on the glove useful in the kitchen or garden.
A protective glove having releasable attached to a portion of its outer surface (

) of a resiliently compressible material having a thickness of at least 1 mm (preferably in the range of 2 to 15 mm) and an abrasive material releasable attached to the
Waterproof manual cleaning device such as latex mitts and gloves having cleaning pads (

) bonded thereto. The cleaning pads may be bonded directly to the mitts or gloves without use of adhesives. The mitt glove may be stripped from the former (

) without turning the device inside out. A raised border portion (
24
) may be provided to prevent misalignment of the pad while latex is cured. The gloves may have finger portions of generally rectangular cross section to facilitate bonding of the pads on one or both sides of the glove.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The present invention discloses a scouring glove with a plurality of heavy duty cleaning members placed at the glove's distal ends of the fingertips for increased scouring ability along with a soap permeable abrasive inner palm layer containing a soap containment bladder with a soap fill spout for refilling. A one-way valve is provided to prevent soap egress and allow pressure buildup in the bladder. A semi-rigid siding is provided to keep the bladder's form. A plurality of soap dispensing apertures are provided to selectively distribute the soap contained within the bladder to prime cleaning areas.
The following is an illustration to typify some of the uses of the gloves/mittens along with the general purpose. A glove/mitten for cosmetic use such as, gloves/mittens having a dermabrasion to remove old dead cells from skin. Gloves/mittens having lotions or oils for body applic
