  • Publication number: 20210038967
    Abstract: Disclosed is a base material for preparing a finger protection structure, including a main body and abutment blocks. Four corners of each abutment block form four corner cut portions, two corner cut portions of two adjacent abutment blocks together form two first gaps, and areas of the main body exposed to the first gaps are defined as elastic deformation areas. A finger protection structure is cut out of the main body along two elastic deformation areas and one second gap. The finger protection structure includes a base plate and the abutment blocks. Areas of the base plate exposed to the first gaps are defined as elastic deformation areas. When a stressed surface is impacted by a frontal impact force, the abutment blocks abut against each other and the base plate straightens. When the stressed surface is impacted by a lateral rotation force, the elastic deformation areas are elastically deformed.

  • Publication number: 20190289931
    Abstract: A finger protection structure includes a plurality of abutment blocks arranged on an adhesive surface of a base plate in a straight line, abutting against one another and defining a plurality of elastic deformation areas on the adhesive surface such that the finger protection structure is bendable forward, twisted and/or bendable in left-and right directions partially due to a flexibility constituted by presence of corner cut portions of the abutment blocks, the deformation areas on the adhesive surface of the base plate and flexibility of the base plate, thereby eliminating the problems resulted from a frontal and rotational lateral impact applied on the stressed surface of the base plate. The finger protection structure has simple structure, is ergonomically constructed and is capable of buffering and absorbing the frontal impact and rotating lateral impact, thereby minimizing injuries to the hands of the wearer of a protection hand glove.
