Abstract: A manufacturing method of protective pad for sportswear and the protective pad obtained by the manufacturing method are disclosed. The manufacturing method has the steps of: 1. making separate paddings using spongy materials; 2. choosing several paddings being made; adhering the several paddings with fabric pieces by heat press using a heat press mold and heat press formation devices, thereby forming the protective pad for sportswear. Specifically, the heat press mold contains cavities for accommodating the paddings; before heat press, laying a first fabric piece on the heat press mold, and then placing the paddings into the cavities; and after that laying a second fabric piece over the paddings; applying glues between the first fabric piece, the second fabric piece and the paddings; finally, adhering the first fabric piece, the second fabric piece and the paddings by heat press using the heat press formation devices.
Abstract: Disclosed are joint protection devices, which may include a garment configured to be worn by a user; and a cushioning pad attached to the garment, the pad comprising cushioning regions, a continuous upper layer and a continuous lower layer at least partially bonded to the continuous upper layer, a cushioning material disposed between and bonded to the upper layer and the lower layer in the cushioning regions, and one or more grooves between the cushioning regions, which enable radial articulation of the cushioning regions relative to one another.
