摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The sleeve has a cloth tube comprising thermoplastic fibers and presenting a weld line (4) connecting two longitudinal edges and extending parallel to a median bend line of the tube. A lining (6) fixed on an upper outer side (2a) of the cloth tube partially covers the weld line. The weld line is formed using an ultrasound weld or thermo-welding machine producing a localized heating driving a fusion of cloth. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method of fabricating a protection sleeve. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used for protecting and for the care of a body part e.g. toe, finger and limb. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The sleeve can be fabricated from a single cloth piece in a simple and low cost manner, and presents optimal comfort and protection characteristics. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a cross sectional view of a sleeve ready to be utilized for the protection of a finger or a toe. 2a : Upper outer side 2b : Lower outer side 2c : Inner sides 4 : Weld line 6 : Lining 10 : Sleeve #CMT#POLYMERS : #/CMT# The cloth tube is constituted of a cloth band comprising a mixture of polyamide and elastane.
