Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
134 words
An elastic latex rubber glove formed of a film of rubber latex and having palm and finger gripping exterior surfaces, the major hand-engaging interior surface of said glove having a molded rough finish, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces of said glove being rough in finish, the entire said glove, being an integral homogeneous film of cured rubber latex, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces having tiny annUlar craters formed thereon, said craters being formed of depression-forming droplets of rubber latex in integral cured state relation with and forming an integral part of the base film forming said glove, said exterior palm and finger gripping rough surface including multiple raised mesa areas of larger area than individual ones of said craters and with a plurality of said craters disposed in zones therebetween.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
134 words
An elastic latex rubber glove formed of a film of rubber latex and having palm and finger gripping exterior surfaces, the major hand-engaging interior surface of said glove having a molded rough finish, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces of said glove being rough in finish, the entire said glove, being an integral homogeneous film of cured rubber latex, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces having tiny annUlar craters formed thereon, said craters being formed of depression-forming droplets of rubber latex in integral cured state relation with and forming an integral part of the base film forming said glove, said exterior palm and finger gripping rough surface including multiple raised mesa areas of larger area than individual ones of said craters and with a plurality of said craters disposed in zones therebetween.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
55 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 1, said craters on said exterior palm and finger gripping rough surfaces including raised side wall craters having raised peripheral side walls surrounding a generally dish-shaped central zone, and said side walls of said raised side wall craters protruding beyond the immediately adjoining surrounding surface of said glove.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 1, said raised mesa areas including droplet accumulations of lateral free-form configuration and having a generally plateau-like upper surface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 3, said raised mesa areas being generally randomly interspersed and having randomly sized and spaced said craters thereon, with said craters disposed randomly in spacing and size between said raised mesa areas.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
17 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 3, said craters having raised rims and dish-shaped central zones.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
54 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 3, said raised mesa areas being generally randomly interspersed and randomly intersecting and separated, and having randomly sized and spaced said craters thereon, and having said craters disposed randomly in spacing and size between said raised mesa areas, said craters having raised rims and dish-shaped central zones.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
30 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 6, said raised mesa areas being random zones with smaller said craters disposed in random quantity size and spacing on various ones thereof.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
123 words
An elastic latex rubber glove formed of a film of rubber latex and having palm and finger gripping surfaces, the exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces of said glove being rough in finish, the entire said glove being an integral homogeneous film of cured rubber latex, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces having tiny craters formed thereon, said craters being formed of depression-forming additive droplets of rubber latex in integral cured state relation with and forming an integral part of the base film forming said glove, said exterior palm and finger gripping rough surface including multiple raised mesa areas of larger area than the area of individual ones of said craters and with a plurality of said craters disposed in zones therebetween.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
123 words
An elastic latex rubber glove formed of a film of rubber latex and having palm and finger gripping surfaces, the exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces of said glove being rough in finish, the entire said glove being an integral homogeneous film of cured rubber latex, said exterior palm and finger gripping surfaces having tiny craters formed thereon, said craters being formed of depression-forming additive droplets of rubber latex in integral cured state relation with and forming an integral part of the base film forming said glove, said exterior palm and finger gripping rough surface including multiple raised mesa areas of larger area than the area of individual ones of said craters and with a plurality of said craters disposed in zones therebetween.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
26 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 8, said raised mesa areas including droplet accumulations of lateral free-form configuration and having a generally plateau-like upper surface.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
37 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 9, said mesa areas being generally randomly interspersed and having randomly sized and spaced said craters thereon, with said craters disposed randomly in spacing and size between said mesa areas.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
30 words
An elastic rubber glove according to claim 10, said mesa areas being random build-up zones with smaller said craters disposed in random quantity size and spacing on various ones thereof.
