| Abstract: |
A finger cot intended for surgical use, and a method for manufacturing the finger cot. The finger cot is formed from two blanks, a first blank forms the back portion, and a second forms the palm face, sides and tip. The blanks are formed of materials to provide the desired degree of protection from cuts and punctures, balanced against the degree of sensitivity or tactility needed to perform a specific task. The second blank is place on a anvil having a cavity therein shaped like a finger. An insert is placed over the second blank and forced into the cavity to shape the second blank. A seam, surrounding the cavity, and located on the outside of the finger cot is formed by ultra sonic welding.

What is claimed:
1. A finger cot comprised of at least two blanks of material having peripheral edges, a first one of said blanks forming the palm face, tip and side portions of the finger cot and a second one of said blanks forming the back portion of the finger cot, said peripheral edges of said blanks being secured to each other to form a seam therebetween, said seam at the tip of the finger cot being adjacent the finger nail, and said seam extending the length of the finger being substantially centered between the back side and side of the finger such said seam is not located on the finger surfaces which are normally used to touch or grasp an object and a third blank of material overlies said tip and adjacent front portion of said first blank of material so as to provide reinforcement of the portion of said finger cot most likely to be subjected to puncture or cutting, the third blank of material limited to the area extending from the finger tip to the first joint of the finger so as to avoid reducing the flexibility and tactile nature of the finger cot, the third blank of material thermally laminated to the first blank of material.
