17. The process of claim 11 further comprising using a knitting machine to create the liner entirely from the first yarn and create the at least one reinforcement section from a plurality of Jacquard or transfer stitches.
18. The process of claim 17, wherein the knitting machine is a whole garment knitting machine.
19. The process of claim 18, wherein the knitting machine is gaugeless.
20. A method of performing industrial work, the method comprising wearing a glove, comprising: a knitted liner having a plurality of stitches made from a first yarn having a denier 221 or less, the knitted liner comprising a plurality of finger components, a thumb component, and a palm component; at least one reinforcement section located at a base of at least one finger component, at a base of the thumb component, in the palm component, or combinations thereof; and a polymeric latex coating adhered to the knitted liner.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A support of a chair for an element selected from the group consisting of a head, a neck, and both, comprising, a device for adjusting a swivel and height for moving the support relative to a back rest of the chair; a first receptacle for a cushion for an element selected from the group consisting of a head, a neck, and both; a second receptacle for fastening the support to the back rest; two first swivel arms for holding the support rotatably at one end on said second receptacle, while, on another end, said first swivel arms are connected in a rotatable and swivelable manner to two second swivel arms which holds said first receptacle at an end which is opposite to said swivel arms which are hingedly-connected
2. A support as defined in claim 1, wherein said first receptacle is held on the second swivel arms so that it is rotatable about a first axis.
3. A support as defined in claim 1, wherein said first receptacle includes a release and locking device for releasing and locking a swivel and a rotational motion of a hinged connection between said first and second swivel arms, and for releasing and locking and a rotational motion of said first swivel arms relative to the second receptacle.
4. A support as defined in claim 3, wherein said release and locking device includes a release lever which is swivelably supported on said first receptacle, is manually actuatable, and is connected at another end to means which lock connections between said swivel arms, and between said first swivel arms and said second receptacle, or which release said connections for motion.
5. A support as defined in claim 4, wherein said means include a spring-loadable cable which extends through an interior of said first swivel arms and a first connection section between said first swivel arms.
6. A support as defined in claim 5, further comprising engageable and disengageable ring gear connections providing rotational motions at a joint between said swivel arms, and between said first swivel arms and said second receptacle.
