Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to waterproof gloves of the type used for cleaning. More particularly, the present invention relates to a cleaning and scouring glove having sponge and abrasive material thereon for cleaning purposes.
- gloves In order to protect their skin from the soap, and other drying and harsh chemicals, many individuals wear waterproof gloves, such as gloves made out of latex or rubber material. However, such material is not sufficiently abrasive, nor does it retain the soapy water, in order to remove dirt, debris and hardened material from the article to be washed. However, gloves having abrasive material thereon are not in and of themselves new.
- gloves have certain limitations.
- One of the primary limitations is that the abrasive material does not retain the soapy water.
- the full cleaning and scrubbing action of the abrasive material is not realized as it is well known that the water and cleaning agent (soap) is often times necessary to properly clean the item and remove the hard residue.
- Another problem with such gloves is that due to the fact that the abrasive pad is removably attached, during hard scrubbing and the like it can become dislodged from the glove with fairly minimal force.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,419,014 discloses a waterproof flexible glove having reservoirs on the fingers and palms which act to retain cleansing solutions by the surface tension of the cleaning solutions.
- the formation of the reservoirs do not act as an abrasive material so as to scour and scrub, but rather are comprised of the same soft and flexible material of the glove itself.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,016,571 to Guzman et al. disclose a pair of waterproof gloves, wherein one of the gloves has an abrasive scrubbing material affixed on a front surface thereof, whereas the other glove has a sponge material affixed onto a front surface thereof.
- the one hand can be used as a sponge to wipe and clean surfaces, while the other glove can be used as a scouring pad so as to remove more hardened and difficult residue.
- this arrangement also suffers drawbacks.
- the abrasive glove is not capable of retaining sufficient water and detergent therein, so as to properly clean.
- the glove having the sponge material on the surfaces thereof renders it very difficult to grasp and hold on to items, such as glass dishes and the like.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,018,837 to Andreu discloses a cleaning and scouring glove wherein the fingers of the glove are coated with an abrasive material.
- a sponge material is affixed to the palm portion of the glove.
- this glove suffers the same drawbacks as the gloves discussed above, namely, the failure to provide sponge material in immediate proximity to the scrubbing material so as to supply the scrubbing material with a source of water and detergent.
- the palm portion of the glove can be used as a sponge to wipe away films and loose material, the abrasive fingers must be immersed in water or the like in order to properly clean and scour.
- the present invention resides in a cleaning glove comprising a glove body.

This is particularly illustrated in FIG. 7 .
- the thumb stall 104 having no water-absorbent material attached thereto instead has a second abrasive scouring material pad 116 ′ attached thereto.
- This arrangement facilitates easy manufacturing of the glove, and also provides a generally continuous and substantially large surface area wherein the palm 102 and front surface of the finger stalls 106 - 112 can be used to clean areas of the article.
- the large flat surfaces of the casserole dish can be cleaned by moving the palm portion and front surface portion of the finger stalls over the generally flat surfaces of the casserole dish.
- the user's thumb stall 104 , index finger stall 106 and middle finger stall 108 can be used to reach and scratch and scrub such areas to clean debris from the corners and other areas not accessible to the palm portion 102 and generally front surface portions of the finger stalls 106 - 112 .
- the abrasive scouring material 116 used in accordance with the present invention may comprise many materials, but in a particularly preferred embodiment comprises a Scotch-BriteTM cleaning pad material or the like. Such material is comprised of woven strands of plastic material, so as to be able to scrub and scratch baked-on grime and grit and dirt and the like from the surface to be cleaned.
- the water-absorbent material typically comprises a sponge-type material. Due to the fact that the sponge material 114 is directly adjacent to the scouring material 116 , soapy suds and cleaning solution can be imparted to the abrasive scouring material 116 so as to more effectively clean the article.
Abstract
A cleaning glove includes a glove body having a front surface, including a palm portion, and multiple finger stalls cooperatively joined together. A water-absorbent material is attached to a front surface of at least one finger stall and the palm portion of the glove body. Preferably, the water absorbent material is bonded onto the front surface of each finger stall. An abrasive scouring material is attached to the top surface of the water-absorbent material. Abrasive scouring material is also bonded onto a front surface of a thumb stall of the glove body.
Description
- The present invention generally relates to waterproof gloves of the type used for cleaning. More particularly, the present invention relates to a cleaning and scouring glove having sponge and abrasive material thereon for cleaning purposes.
- Many of today's existing technologies of scrubbing brushes and similar cleaning devices have awkward shapes and limited flexibility. Bathtubs, tiles in bathrooms, sinks, and even dishes, for example, have hard to reach spaces and often awkward shapes. Existing scrub brushes tend to have the bristles set on a hard surface which makes the overall brush inflexible, therefore very hard if not impossible to bend and flex to reach the awkward shapes and clean hard to reach spaces.
- All of these cleaning devices require the user to grip them independently with their hands. A shortcoming associated with this is that the device has a tendency of slipping or falling out of the user's hand when cleaning. Another shortcoming with this is that when a user grips on to this device to clean a surface, extra pressure is required on the part of the user to scrub and clean the surface because of the added force needed to hold on to this device while at the same time applying sufficient pressure to clean a surface.
- It is not uncommon when cleaning a surface, such as dishes and silverware, that there is hard and encrusted material to be removed. Often times, the user is cleaning the article with a washcloth, sponge or the like. In such a case, such material is not abrasive and will not remove such hardened residue. Thus, often times the user will scratch or pick at the debris so as to remove it, such as picking at debris on a dish to remove it. The user's fingers are quite small and can apply a fair amount of pressure so as to dislodge and remove such debris, and the fingernail is of sufficient hardness so as to perform the job. However, what will often times happen is that the fingernail will become broken in the process, or the debris lodged between the finger and the fingernail, both of which are highly undesirable.
- In order to protect their skin from the soap, and other drying and harsh chemicals, many individuals wear waterproof gloves, such as gloves made out of latex or rubber material. However, such material is not sufficiently abrasive, nor does it retain the soapy water, in order to remove dirt, debris and hardened material from the article to be washed. However, gloves having abrasive material thereon are not in and of themselves new.
- For example, there are many United States patents which disclose gloves having abrasive material fixed thereon. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,643,386 to Grzyll discloses an abrasive hand apparel. U.S. Pat. No. 3,885,249 to De Brabander discloses a working glove having burring material thereon for grinding, sanding, polishing, etc. U.S. Pat. No. 4,038,787 to Bianchi discloses a glove having abrasive units fixed thereon. U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,051,572; 3,151,333 and U.S. Publication 2005/0177965 A1 all disclose waterproof scrubbing gloves having abrasive material fixed thereon.
- There are other prior art references which disclose gloves having removable abrasive material pads. For example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,956,770; 6,098,234; and 6,604,244 as well as United States Patent Application Publication No. US 2005/0060786 A1 all disclose gloves having fastening means such as hook and loop fasteners, for removably attaching an abrasive pad or the like.
- However, such gloves have certain limitations. One of the primary limitations is that the abrasive material does not retain the soapy water. Thus, the full cleaning and scrubbing action of the abrasive material is not realized as it is well known that the water and cleaning agent (soap) is often times necessary to properly clean the item and remove the hard residue. Another problem with such gloves is that due to the fact that the abrasive pad is removably attached, during hard scrubbing and the like it can become dislodged from the glove with fairly minimal force.
- Thus, the shortcomings of these prior art cleaning gloves has been the lack of physical flexibility, that is their incapacity to act as a sponge in order to accomplish the absorption and retention of detergents and solution, and the single cleaning purpose thereof, that is, cleaning of the surface for which a given cleaning abrasive glove may be used.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,419,014 discloses a waterproof flexible glove having reservoirs on the fingers and palms which act to retain cleansing solutions by the surface tension of the cleaning solutions. However, the formation of the reservoirs do not act as an abrasive material so as to scour and scrub, but rather are comprised of the same soft and flexible material of the glove itself.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,016,571 to Guzman et al. disclose a pair of waterproof gloves, wherein one of the gloves has an abrasive scrubbing material affixed on a front surface thereof, whereas the other glove has a sponge material affixed onto a front surface thereof. In this manner, the one hand can be used as a sponge to wipe and clean surfaces, while the other glove can be used as a scouring pad so as to remove more hardened and difficult residue. However, this arrangement also suffers drawbacks. First, similar to the gloves described above, the abrasive glove is not capable of retaining sufficient water and detergent therein, so as to properly clean. Moreover, the glove having the sponge material on the surfaces thereof renders it very difficult to grasp and hold on to items, such as glass dishes and the like.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,018,837 to Andreu discloses a cleaning and scouring glove wherein the fingers of the glove are coated with an abrasive material. A sponge material is affixed to the palm portion of the glove. However, once again, this glove suffers the same drawbacks as the gloves discussed above, namely, the failure to provide sponge material in immediate proximity to the scrubbing material so as to supply the scrubbing material with a source of water and detergent. Thus, while the palm portion of the glove can be used as a sponge to wipe away films and loose material, the abrasive fingers must be immersed in water or the like in order to properly clean and scour.
- Accordingly, there is a continuing need for a waterproof glove which serves both as a water absorbing and providing device as well as a scrubbing and scouring device. The present invention fulfills these needs, and provides other related advantages.
- The present invention resides in a cleaning glove comprising a glove body. Typically, the glove body is comprised of a waterproof material, such as latex.
- A palm portion of the glove body has a water-absorbent, sponge-like material attached thereto. An abrasive scouring material is bonded onto the water-absorbent material.
- A thumb stall of the glove body has an abrasive scouring material attached onto a front surface thereof so as to extend substantially along a length thereof and over a tip thereof to a back surface of the thumb stall.
- An index finger stall of the glove body has a water-absorbent, sponge-like material attached onto a front surface thereof so as to extend substantially along a length of the index finger stall and onto a tip of the index finger stall. An abrasive scouring material is attached onto the water-absorbent material and extends to a back surface of the index finger stall of the glove body.
- In a preferred embodiment, the middle finger stall, ring finger stall, and pinky finger stall of the glove body also have water-absorbent material attached thereto with scouring material overlying the water-absorbent material. More particularly, the middle finger stall of the glove body has a water-absorbent, sponge-like material attached onto a front surface thereof so as to extend substantially along the length of the middle finger stall and onto a tip of the middle finger stall. An abrasive scouring material is bonded onto the middle finger stall water-absorbent material and extends to a back surface of the index finger stall of the glove body. The ring finger stall and pinky finger stall of the glove body both have a water-absorbent material attached onto a front surface thereof so as to extend substantially along a length of the finger stall. An abrasive scouring material is bonded onto the water-absorbent material of the ring finger and pinky finger stalls.
- The water-absorbent, sponge-like material may comprise a single pad which is attached to a front surface of the body glove so as to extend from a palm portion of the body glove along a length to a tip of an index finger stall of the glove body, and extend from the palm portion along the length to a tip of a middle finger stall of the glove body, and extend from the palm portion of the glove body along a length of a ring finger stall of the glove body, and extending from the palm portion of the glove body along a length of a pinky finger stall of the glove body. A first abrasive scouring material pad is attached to a surface of the water-absorbent material pad generally opposite the glove body. This first abrasive scouring material pad extends over to a back surface of the index and middle finger stalls of the glove body. A second abrasive scouring material pad is attached to a front surface of a thumb stall of the glove body, so to extend substantially along the length thereof and over a tip thereof to a back surface of the thumb stall.
- The cleaning glove having the water-absorbent material and abrasive scouring material attached thereto is typically a first glove of a pair. The second cleaning glove of the pair typically has a glove body with a plurality of finger stalls and a palm portion without absorbent or abrasive scouring material attached thereto.
- Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following more detailed description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which illustrate, by way of example, the principles of the invention.

reference number 100, which provides a waterproof absorbent, sponge-type material as well as an abrasive scouring material so as to eliminate the need of using a glove, a scrubber and a sponge, separately, to wash articles, such as dishes. - With reference now to
FIG. 1 , in a particularly preferred embodiment, thecleaning glove 100 of the present invention is offered as a glove of a pair of gloves, thesecond glove 200 not having any water-absorbent material or scouring material attached thereto. It will be appreciated that one of thegloves other glove glove 200 of the pair without any water-absorbent material or scouring material thereon so as to assist the user in holding the article being washed, such as a dish. Theother glove 100 can be used to scour and wash the dish. Although theglove 100 can be used to hold the article as well, the water-absorbent and scouring material attached thereto may impede the secure holding and handling of the article. - With continuing reference to
FIG. 1 , eachglove palm portion FIGS. 1 and 7 , defines a portion of the front surface of theglove bodies glove bodies thumb stall index finger stall middle finger stall ring finger stall pinky finger stall palm portion 102 and enable the user to place his or her fingers therein, as is well known in the art. - With reference to FIGS. 1 and 4-6, a water-
absorbent material 114, such as a sponge material, is attached to at least a portion of the front surface of theglove 100. More particularly, as can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 4-6, the water-absorbent, sponge-type material 114 is attached to thepalm portion 102 of theglove body 100. Preferably, the water-absorbent material 114 covers substantially all of thepalm portion 102 of theglove body 100, as illustrated. - With reference now to
FIG. 8 , a cross-sectional view taken generally along line 8-8 of theglove 100 ofFIG. 1 illustrates the water-absorbent material 114 attached to thepalm portion 102 of theglove body 100. As described above, theglove body 100 is typically comprised of a latex or similar waterproof material. An abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is attached to the water-absorbent material 114. More particularly, a first surface of the water-absorbent material 114 is attached to the glove body material and a generally opposite, outer exposed surface is attached to the abrasive scouringmaterial 116, as illustrated inFIG. 8 . - The water-absorbent, sponge-
like material 114 extends substantially a length of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108 and onto a tip or end of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108, as illustrated inFIGS. 1 , 5, 6, and 9. The tip or end 118 of the finger stalls 106 and 108 is defined herein as meaning the boundary between the front surface and the back surface of the finger stalls 106 and 108. As can be clearly seen inFIG. 9 , the water-absorbent sponge-type material 114 extends onto the tip or end 118 of the finger stalls 106 and 108 of the index and middle fingers. - With continuing reference to
FIG. 9 , the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is bonded onto the opposite, or top, surface of the water-absorbent material 114 so as to also extend substantially along the length of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108, onto the tip of the finger stalls 118, and over to a back surface of the finger stalls 106 and 108. The back surface of the finger stall inFIG. 9 is illustrated as being the top portion of thefinger stall absorbent material 114 typically does not extend over onto the back surface. The abrasive scouringmaterial 116 extending over to a back surface of the index and middle fingers is also clearly shown inFIGS. 3 , 5, and 6. Typically, the abrasive scouring material extends over a fraction of the length of the back side of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108, such as to cover what would be at least the fingernail of the index and middle finger of the user. - With reference now to
FIG. 10 , the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is attached to a front surface of thethumb stall 104 of theglove body 100 and extends substantially along a length thereof and over atip 118 thereof and onto the back surface (illustrated as the top surface of thefinger stall 104 inFIG. 10 ). It will be seen that the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is bonded directly onto the glove body material of thethumb stall 104. That is, there is no water-absorbent material 114 therebetween. - It has been found by the inventor that users will typically use their index finger and also their middle finger and thumbs to scrape off, scrub and scratch debris to be removed from the article. Extending the scouring
material 116 from a front surface of thethumb stall 104 and index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108 onto atip 118 of the glove body of the stalls 104-108 and onto a back surface thereof enables the user to use the top end of the front surface, end, and fingernail portion area of his or her thumb, index finger and middle finger to scrub, dig and remove debris effectively. Providing the water-absorbent sponge material 114 at the front surface and tip 118 of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108 allows cleaning liquid, such as soapy water, to be conveyed through the scouringabrasive material 116 to effectuate cleaning. However, the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 extending onto the back surface of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108 so as to be attached directly onto the glove body material thereof has been found to reduce the possibility of thesponge material 114 and abrasive scouringmaterial 116 from being torn away from the glove body at thetip 118 of thestalls thumb stall 104 is used to vigorously scrub, scrape, scratch and clean, there is no water-absorbent sponge material 114 disposed between the glove body material of thethumb stall 104 and theabrasive material 116. - With reference now to
FIGS. 1 , 4 and 6, the water-absorbent sponge-type material 114 extends substantially along a length of the ring finger and pinky finger stalls 110 and 112. However, in the preferred embodiment, the water-absorbent material 114 does not extend onto a tip or end of the ring and pinky stalls 110 and 112. The abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is attached to an outer surface, or the surface of the water-absorbent material 114 generally opposite the material of theglove body 100, as illustrated inFIG. 11 . Neither the water-absorbent, sponge-type material 114 nor the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 need to extend onto thetip 118 of the finger stalls 110 and 112 as the ring and pinky fingers are not often as used to scrub and scrape as the thumb, index, and middle fingers of the user. - In a particularly preferred embodiment, the water-absorbent, sponge-
type material 114 is a continuous and single member in the form of a pad which covers a substantial portion of thepalm area 102 of theglove body 100, and extends therefrom to the front surface and onto the tips or ends 118 of the index and middle finger stalls 106 and 108, as described above. The water-absorbent, sponge-type material 114 also extends from thepalm portion 102 along the substantial length of the front surface of the ring and pinky stalls 110 and 112 of the glove body. A first pad of the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 is attached to the outer, exposed surface of thesponge material 114, and preferably is contiguous therewith respect to the palm portion, pinky finger portion, ring finger portion, and extends over to the back side of the index finger and middle finger stalls 106 and 108, as previously described above. This is particularly illustrated inFIG. 7 . Thethumb stall 104, having no water-absorbent material attached thereto instead has a second abrasive scouringmaterial pad 116′ attached thereto. - This arrangement facilitates easy manufacturing of the glove, and also provides a generally continuous and substantially large surface area wherein the
palm 102 and front surface of the finger stalls 106-112 can be used to clean areas of the article. For example, when washing a casserole dish or the like, the large flat surfaces of the casserole dish can be cleaned by moving the palm portion and front surface portion of the finger stalls over the generally flat surfaces of the casserole dish. However, in the crevices and corners of the casserole dish the user'sthumb stall 104,index finger stall 106 andmiddle finger stall 108 can be used to reach and scratch and scrub such areas to clean debris from the corners and other areas not accessible to thepalm portion 102 and generally front surface portions of the finger stalls 106-112. - The abrasive scouring
material 116 used in accordance with the present invention may comprise many materials, but in a particularly preferred embodiment comprises a Scotch-Brite™ cleaning pad material or the like. Such material is comprised of woven strands of plastic material, so as to be able to scrub and scratch baked-on grime and grit and dirt and the like from the surface to be cleaned. The water-absorbent material typically comprises a sponge-type material. Due to the fact that thesponge material 114 is directly adjacent to the scouringmaterial 116, soapy suds and cleaning solution can be imparted to the abrasive scouringmaterial 116 so as to more effectively clean the article. This is due to the fact that the abrasive scouring material, due to its large intersticial void areas, does not retain water. However, when pressure is applied to the water-absorbent material 114, it releases cleaning solution to the abrasive scouringmaterial 116, and thus the article to be cleaned. - Although several embodiments have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications may be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited, except as by the appended claims.
