Abstract: |
A work glove is provided having a flexible magnetic enclosure disposed on the rear surface of a glove body. A plurality of magnets contained within the enclosure are provided for attracting and retaining work components against an exterior surface of the enclosure of the glove for convenient access during a construction or assembly operation. A flexible magnet insulating substrate is provided for insulating adjacent magnets from one another as well as maintaining the magnets in a fixed spaced-apart relationship within the enclosure.

What is claimed is:
1. A work glove, comprising:
- a glove body having a flexible back surface;
- a flexible enclosure having upper and lower layers permanently attached about their peripheries to define a completely enclosed interior space;
- a plurality of magnets disposed in spaced-apart relationship within the completely enclosed interior space of said flexible enclosure;
- magnet-insulating means disposed within the completely enclosed interior space, said magnet-insulating means constructed and positioned to minimize magnetic interference between adjacent ones of said plurality of magnets and to prevent said plurality of magnets from sliding about within said enclosed interior space, with an exterior surface of an upper one of said two-layer enclosure providing a substantially planar magnetic surface for receiving and retaining metal components against said exterior surface; and
- means for releasably attaching said flexible enclosure to the flexible back surface of said glove body at a position adjacent to the knuckle portion of a user's hand when worn.
