Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
A glove having a flexible body with a palm, a thumb and finger stalls, each of said finger stalls in use covering three finger joint lines, a plurality of discrete abrading units on said palm, said thumb and each of said finger stalls disposed to permit free flexing of said finger stalls at the joint lines and to permit free flexing of said thumb and palm, each of said abrading units consisting of a plurality of hard and sharp particles dispersed in a layer of adhesive, and securing means free of hard and sharp particles intermediate said glove and said abrading units for securing each of said abrading units to said glove and for insulating said glove therefrom, whereby said glove may be used to abrade potatoes to peel same producing easily disposable pulp, or to abrade paint and the like while permitting free flexing of the thumb, finger and palm, without the hard and sharp particles in said abrading units tearing said glove.
