Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
Apparatus for protecting the human hand from radiation comprising an outer glove made from radiation barrier material, the innermost surface of which is smooth and has a low coefficient of friction, and a removeable laminated liner for said glove, the outer lamination of which liner has a high coefficient of friction with respect to said innermost surface of said glove, and the inner lamination of which is moisture absorbent, said apparatus including means for removeably affixing the interior of said glove in the cuff region thereof to the exterior of said liner in the cuff region thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 97 words
Apparatus for protecting the human hand from radiation comprising an outer glove made from radiation barrier material, the innermost surface of which is smooth and has a low coefficient of friction, and a removeable laminated liner for said glove, the outer lamination of which liner has a high coefficient of friction with respect to said innermost surface of said glove, and the inner lamination of which is moisture absorbent, said apparatus including means for removeably affixing the interior of said glove in the cuff region thereof to the exterior of said liner in the cuff region thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
The apparatus described in claim 1 wherein said glove includes a layer of lead-filled material by which it is rendered substantially totally impervious to X-ray radiation.
