Abstract
Abstract An air inflated boxing glove or pillow. The glove includes a casing having an axially disposed open ended tubular sleeve. The sleeve is encompassed by an annular cylindrical band to which bell shaped end shell sections are fixed along the opposite edges. The bell shaped sections are provided with axial openings in which the ends of the sleeve are fixed. An air valve is provided in the casing. A modified form of the boxing glove has a partition at one end of the cylindrical band to which one bell shaped end shell section is fixed about the periphery thereof. An opening is provided through the partition so that air may inflate the end shell section. A further modified form of the boxing glove eliminates one bell section, and a circular partition is provided in the tubular sleeve.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
135 words
A boxing glove made from resilient air impervious sheet material comprising an axially disposed open ended tubular sleeve, a spherical casing encompassing said sleeve defining an air chamber about said sleeve, and means attaching said casing to said sleeve so that at least one end of said sleeve remains open to permit insertion of a fist into said sleeve, a partition extending over and closing the other end of said sleeve, and means securing said partition to said casing to divide said casing into two air chambers, one of said air chambers comprising a segmentally shaped end air chamber, and an air inlet valve in said casing for inflating said chambers with air whereby upon inflation said tubular sleeve is collapsed to firmly embrace and restrict movement of a user''s fist inserted in said sleeve.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
135 words
A boxing glove made from resilient air impervious sheet material comprising an axially disposed open ended tubular sleeve, a spherical casing encompassing said sleeve defining an air chamber about said sleeve, and means attaching said casing to said sleeve so that at least one end of said sleeve remains open to permit insertion of a fist into said sleeve, a partition extending over and closing the other end of said sleeve, and means securing said partition to said casing to divide said casing into two air chambers, one of said air chambers comprising a segmentally shaped end air chamber, and an air inlet valve in said casing for inflating said chambers with air whereby upon inflation said tubular sleeve is collapsed to firmly embrace and restrict movement of a user''s fist inserted in said sleeve.
