| Abstract: |
A wrist restrainer includes a wrist band and a resilient, one piece restraining plate with one end tightly connected thereto and the other end extending along the back of a wearer's hand to prevent outward pivotal movement of the hand at the wrist while permitting lateral movement. The restraining plate can be bent inwardly to press against the back of the hand. A wrist restraining glove including a hand receiving portion, with or without fingers, and a wrist band, has a resilient restraining plate extending from the knuckle end through the wrist band. The restraining plate is either entirely integrally joined to the glove or integrally joined only to the wrist band and loosely received in a pocket on the back of the glove. In the former construction, the restraining plate itself is more flexible in the lateral direction, having a gourd shape with a medial portion or waist of reduced lateral width and increased thickness, or having ribs which are parallel in the wrist band and diverge toward the knuckle end in either straight or sinuous fashion. In an alternative, the restraining plate can be entirely received in a pocket in a closure flap extending between the wristlet and knuckle end.

First Claim:

What is claimed is:
1. A wrist restraining glove comprising:
- a hand receiving portion;
- a wrist band integrally joined to said hand receiving portion;
- a resilient, one-piece restraining plate having a flat face integrally joined to a back of the glove to extend substantially centrally therealong from a knuckle-adjacent portion through said wrist band, the restraining plate having a greater resistance to bending in an outward direction than to bending in a lateral direction, perpendicular to the outward direction, thereby restraining pivotal movement of a wearer's hand about a wrist in the outward direction while permitting pivotal movement of the hand about the wrist in the lateral direction.
