Ball catching apparatus

Abstract

A ball catching apparatus comprises a main body in which a back-of-hand-side inner skin and a palm-side inner skin are respectively secured to a back-of-hand-side outer skin and a palm-side outer skin, and a thumb hook provided at a base-end portion of a thumb pocket part of the main body and allowing a position of a thumb to be secured and released, wherein the thumb hook comprises a first belt and a second belt respectively secured to the palm-side inner skin, the first belt allows the thumb to be pressed from a forefinger side, the second belt is provided along an outer peripheral side of the first belt and in such a manner as overlapping with the first belt, and a state where the thumb is pressed by the first belt is maintained in such a manner that the second belt is stretched, so that the position of the thumb is determined while the thumb is being comfortably fitted by the first and second belts.

1 . A ball catching apparatus comprising: 
 a main body in which a back-of-hand-side inner skin and a palm-side inner skin are respectively secured to a back-of-hand-side outer skin and a palm-side outer skin; and    a thumb hook provided at a base-end portion of a thumb pocket part of the main body and allowing a position of a thumb to be secured and released, wherein    the thumb hook comprises a first belt and a second belt respectively secured to the palm-side inner skin, the first belt allows the thumb to be pressed from a forefinger side,    the second belt is provided along an outer peripheral side of the first belt and in such a manner as overlapping with the first belt, and    a state where the thumb is pressed by the first belt is maintained in such a manner that the second belt is stretched, so that the position of the thumb is determined while the thumb is being comfortably fitted by the first and second belts.    
   
   
       2 . The ball catching apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein 
 base portions of the first and second belts are securely seamed with the palm-side inner skin, and widths of the first and second belts are respectively reduced into string shapes from substantially intermediate parts in a longitudinal direction, and    edges of the first and second belts each having the string shape reach an outer side of the outer skin, and the edge of the second belt is formed into a two-string shape and can be fastened and released on the outer side of the outer skin.    
   
   
       3 . The ball catching apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein 
 an edge of the first belt goes around the inserted thumb, and extends again toward an outer side of the back-of-hand-side outer skin through an insertion hole formed in the back-of-hand-side inner skin, and    an edge of the second belt once enters into between the palm-side inner akin and the palm-side outer skin, and extends toward the outer side of the back-of-hand-side outer skin through an insertion hole formed in the palm-side inner skin in the same manner as the edge of the first belt.    
   
   
       4 . The ball catching apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein 
 a band along a width direction of a hand for receiving and supporting a back of the hand is provided in the main body in such a manner that the hand can be thereby pressed and released from the pressing.    
   
   
       5 . The ball catching apparatus as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein 
 the edge of the first belt goes around the inserted thumb, and extends again toward an outer side of the back-of-hand-side outer skin through an insertion hole formed in the back-of-hand-side inner skin, and    the edge of the second belt once enters into between the palm-side inner akin and the palm-side outer skin, and extends toward the outer side of the back-of-hand-side outer skin through an insertion hole formed in the palm-side inner skin in the same manner as the edge of the first belt, and    a band along a width direction of a hand for receiving and supporting a back of the hand is provided in the main body in such a manner that the hand can be thereby pressed and released from the pressing.
