BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0001]     1. Field of the Invention  
         [0002]     The present invention relates to a baseball glove, more particularly, to a baseball glove with gussets made of ventilative material and disposed on the position between two contiguous fingers for fast heat dissipation and easy folding.  
         [0003]     2. Description of the Prior Art  
         [0004]     Refer to  FIG. 1 , a conventional baseball glove is composed of a shell back (a), a shell palm (b), both made of leather, a lining and leather lacings. A piece of leather is cut to finger-style pieces for making shell back (a) and a shell palm (b) respectively. The lining includes an inner layer of leather with a soft layer of sponge or soft material. At first, the shell back (a) corresponds the shell palm (b), and sewed together so as to form a glove while an opening is left. The surface of the lining is painted with glue and is attached on the inner side of the glove. The leather lacings are used for binding some leather accessories on the glove for enhancing the strength. In addition, during the sewing process of the shell back (a) and the shell palm (b), a piece of leather gusset (c) is disposed therebetween for increasing the strength of the glove. However, this brings the disadvantage of the hardness of the glove so that it&#39;s difficult for users to fold the big toe and other fingers, and is also difficult for catching balls. Moreover, the glove covers users&#39; hand so that the sweat caused by the stifling glove makes users uncomfortable.  
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
       [0005]     Therefore, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a baseball glove with ventilative gusset that is convenient for the movement of user&#39;s fingers and is easy foldable.  
         [0006]     It is a further object of the present invention to provide a baseball glove with ventilative gusset that can dissipate the heat generating from users&#39; hand quickly.  
         [0007]     The gusset not only improves the elasticity of the finger part of the glove but also make the glove more foldable, easily receiving the ball. The gusset increase the air permeability so that the heat energy coming from the palm can be dissipated fast, make users more comfortable.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT  
       [0014]     Refer to  FIG. 2  &amp;  FIG. 3A , the present invention includes a shell back  10 , a shell palm  20 , a lining  30 , a plurality of gussets  40 , leather accessories  50  and leather lacings  60 . The shell back  10  is in finger-type shape with a plurality of insertion holes  11  on the front side and the peripheral sides of five fingers thereof. The shell palm  20  is also in fingerlike shape with a plurality of insertion holes  11  on the front side, the lateral sides of five fingers and the palm thereof. The lining  30  is composed of a lining palm  31  having a soft lining  31   a  made of sponge or soft material, sewed together with a palm-shaped lining leather  31   b , a lining finger  32  made of soft lining  32   a  located on the position of five fingers, and a plurality of insertion holes  33 . The lining  30  is used to increase the thickness of the palm of the glove so as to reduce the injury caused by the impulse of the ball. The insertion holes  33  are for the insertion of the lacings  60  to modify the appearance or increase the strength. The gussets  40  made of special material such as Neoprene is cut to proper size and is sewed on the position between the two contiguous fingers of the shell back  10 . The leather accessories  50  include a web  51  between the thumb and the first finger for receiving balls, an adjustable band  52  for adjusting the fitness of the wrist. The lacings  60  are made by cutting the leather into slips and are inserted through the insertion holes  11 ,  21 ,  33  on the lateral side of the glove for beautification and strength enhancement.  
         [0015]     When being assembled, the bottom of the shell back  10  corresponds to the top of the shell palm  20 , and then being sewed together on edges while an opening is left. Then a layer of glue is painted on the surface of the lining  30  for attaching it inside the glove. Later the web  51  and the adjustable band  52  are set on the proper position of the glove while the lacings  60  insert into each of the insertion holes  11 ,  21 ,  33 .  
         [0016]     Refer to  FIG. 3B , the outer edge of the gusset  40  is sewed on position between the two contiguous fingers of the shell back  10  first and then the inner edge of the gusset  40  is corresponding and sewed to the position between the two contiguous fingers of the shell palm  20 .  
         [0017]     Refer to  FIG. 4 , this is a further embodiment of the lining in accordance with the present invention. A plurality of ventilative pores  34  and a plurality of insertion holes  33  are disposed on the soft inner layer  31   a  and the lining leather  31   b  of the lining palm  31 . Then the lining palm  31  is assembled with other parts of the glove in the same way mentioned above.  
         [0018]     The structure mentioned above has following advantages: 
    1. A plurality of insertion holes is disposed on each part of the glove for insertion of the lacings, so as to modify the appearance and enhance strength.     2. The adjustable band can adjust the fitness of the user&#39;s wrist with the glove.     3. A plurality of ventilative pores on the top of the leather can increase the air permeability and the grabbing force. The glove is easier to be folded.    
 
         [0022]     It should be noted that the above description and accompanying drawings are only used to illustrate some embodiments of the present invention, not intended to limit the scope thereof. Any modification of the embodiments should fall within the scope of the present invention.
