Patent ID: 7448091

Claim:
A protective glove constructed of elastic and resilient elastomer, the glove comprising a hollow body adapted for receiving a human hand therein, the body having a distal end and a proximal end, a plurality of distally closed finger receptacles extending from the body substantially at the distal end each finger receptacle defining a longitudinal axis, a sleeve extending proximally from the proximal end and terminating proximally as an open tubular cuff, wherein the body is symmetrical relative to a plane containing each of the longitudinal axes of the finger receptacles, whereby the protective glove is ambidextrous; the body of the glove having a palm side and a back side, the glove body has two bubble-like bulges, a first one of the two bulges being on one of the sides, a second one of the two bulges being on the other side, thereby the body fits the hand loosely enough to accommodate small objects affixed to the hand, and the cuff having a circumference substantially less than a circumference of a corresponding part of a forearm over which the cuff is drawn while the protective glove is donned on the hand, whereby the cuff tightly embraces the part of the forearm, producing a watertight seal, whereby water and other substances, to which the hand and the arm are subjected, are effectively excluded from the inside of the protective glove.
