Patent attributes
The invention relates to a reinforcement (2) for a glove (17), in particular a goalkeeper glove comprising a) an arrangement (3) of several interconnected first elements (3a to 3f), b) several second elements (4a, 4e) connected or connectable to the arrangement of the first elements (3a, 3f) in such a way that at least two stopping surfaces (14, 15) are formed between at least two second elements (4a, 4e), in particular between all second elements (4a, 4e), wherein c) the arrangement (3) of the first elements (3a, 3f) can be bent from a substantially extended state to a curved state during a forward movement and unbent from the curved state to the extended state during a back movement, wherein d) in the curved state, d1) an interspace (11, 32) is formed between the adjacent first elements (3a, 3f) and d2) and an interspace (16) is formed between the stopping surfaces (14, 15) of the adjacent second elements (4a, 4e) in the extended state and e) said stopping surfaces (14, 15) of the adjacent second elements (4a, 4e) are at least partially connectable therebetween and counteract to the back movement.
