Overview

Randomized trial improves dexterity of firefighting gloves in young males, suggesting enhanced safety and efficiency.

Key Points

  • The aim is to enhance the fitting performance and dexterity of firefighting gloves through 3D scanning technology.
  • Measured hands of 108 young Chinese males using 3D scanning for five postures.
  • Performed cluster analysis on hand dimensions and calculated skin slack strain ratios in 13 regions.
  • Redesigned glove structure based on skin deformation findings.
  • Classified hand shapes into four typical categories.
  • Skin deformation varied significantly during grasping, impacting design.
  • Glove redesign reduced operational time by 44.65% and improved dexterity based on tests.
