Abstract
Abstract A glove construction wherein the trank, forchette and thumb piece are stitched together at the outer periphery in the gunn pattern with the liner outside and a water barrier layer inside to form a glove invert with exterior seams; the invert is then reversed to place the barrier layer outside, the liner insert and the seams inverted; an adhesive sealant is then applied along the inverted seams and cured. This reversed glove invert is then placed inside of and secured to an outer shell as of leather.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
159 words
A method of making a glove comprising the steps of: (a) providing trank, forchette and thumb piece glove components, each having an inner liner layer and a barrier layer adhered to said inner liner layer; and provding a glove shell; (b) stitching said components together with said inner liner layer on the outside and said barrier layer on the inside to form an assembled glove invert having protruding connecting seams between said components at the outer periphery of said invert; (c) reversing said glove invert to place said inner liner layer inside, said barrier layer outside, and said protruding seams inside, while creating elongated peripheral depressions along the exterior of said invert seams; (d) applying an adhesive sealant along said peripheral depressions of said inverted seams, and curing said adhesive sealant thereby sealing said seams to prevent water wicking thereat while said barrier layer allows moisture vapor egress; and (e) securing said reversed glove invert inside said glove shell.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
159 words
A method of making a glove comprising the steps of: (a) providing trank, forchette and thumb piece glove components, each having an inner liner layer and a barrier layer adhered to said inner liner layer; and provding a glove shell; (b) stitching said components together with said inner liner layer on the outside and said barrier layer on the inside to form an assembled glove invert having protruding connecting seams between said components at the outer periphery of said invert; (c) reversing said glove invert to place said inner liner layer inside, said barrier layer outside, and said protruding seams inside, while creating elongated peripheral depressions along the exterior of said invert seams; (d) applying an adhesive sealant along said peripheral depressions of said inverted seams, and curing said adhesive sealant thereby sealing said seams to prevent water wicking thereat while said barrier layer allows moisture vapor egress; and (e) securing said reversed glove invert inside said glove shell.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method in claim 1 wherein said inner liner layer comprises a wool fleece layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method in claim 2 wherein said inner liner layer also includes a thin fabric on the side of said fleece layer opposite said barrier layer, such that said thin fabric and said barrier layer straddle said fleece layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
16 words
The method in claim 1 wherein said reversed glove invert is stitched to said glove shell.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
25 words
The method in claim 1 wherein in said step (d) said adhesive sealant is applied as a bead and then spread along said inverted seams.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
82 words
A glove comprising: an outer shell and an inner member; said inner member comprising an inner liner layer and an outer water barrier layer attached together along peripheral seams; said seams being inverted with the stitching on the inside of said inner member and an elongated recess along the outside peripehery; and an adhesive sealant in said elongated recess along said seams on the outside of said inner member to prevent water wicking thereat while said barrier layer allows moisture vapor egress.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
82 words
A glove comprising: an outer shell and an inner member; said inner member comprising an inner liner layer and an outer water barrier layer attached together along peripheral seams; said seams being inverted with the stitching on the inside of said inner member and an elongated recess along the outside peripehery; and an adhesive sealant in said elongated recess along said seams on the outside of said inner member to prevent water wicking thereat while said barrier layer allows moisture vapor egress.
