DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
Hand and forearm protective device for the passive interception of thrusts in martial arts, comprising a polyurethane-integral foam cushion for an all-around covering of at least the hand and forearm area of a person, said cushion having a substantially parallelepipedal elongated basic body having open ends and a central continuous channel extended axially therethrough between said open ends for receiving the hand and forearm, said cushion having, in vicinity of an end third of said channel, a crosspiece integral with said basic body projecting from one side of said channel diagonally into the cross section thereof and a gripping trough formed in said crosspiece laterally adjoining said channel for holding said cushion with the hand, said channel being substantially straight and one of said open ends exposing the fingers of the person within the basic body to view from outside said one end.
2.
Hand and forearm protective device according to claim 1, wherein said cushion has an end in vicinity of said end third of said recess, and said crosspiece has an upper edge being spaced at a given distance from said end of said mitt.
3.
Hand and forearm protective device according to claim 1 or 2, wherein said cushion has convex-cambered edges and corners all around.
4.
Hand and forearm protective device according to claim 1 or 2, wherein said cushion has convex-cambered outer surfaces.
5.
Hand and forearm protective device according to claim 1 or 2, including an elastic lacquer coating disposed on inner and outer surfaces of said cushion.
Description:
The invention relates to a hand and forearm protective device for the interception of thrusts in martial arts, for example in body contact sports such as karate.
In martial arts such as these, the key attack and defense means employed are blows made with the fist and the forearm as well as thrusts administered with the foot and heel, which can deliver a considerable force.
To avoid direct body hits, the opponent's main concern is to ward off these blows and thrusts in advance, for which the hand, the fist, and the forearm are best suited
