         21 . A heat-resistant fire department glove, comprising:
 at least one protector with a fire-resistant outer material, wherein the at least one protector is arranged in the region of the back of the hand, the inner surface of the hand and/or the edge of the hand and has a convex or concave curvature and a temperature resistance of at least 200° C. for at least 9 seconds.   
     
     
         22 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 21 , wherein the outer material and the protector are formed and arranged such that heat is shielded not only by the fire-resistant outer material of the fire department glove but also by the protector itself. 
     
     
         23 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 21 , wherein the protector is arranged on the outer side of the outer material. 
     
     
         24 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 21 , wherein the back side of the hand or the inner surface of the hand comprises at least one layer of the outer material and at least one layer of lining, and the protector is arranged between the outer material and the lining or is integrated in the outer material. 
     
     
         25 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in any one of  claim 21 , wherein the protector is formed as a hard shell. 
     
     
         26 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 25 , wherein the hard shell comprises one of a thermoplastic elastomer and polyamide. 
     
     
         27 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 26 , wherein the thermoplastic elastomer is high-temperature stabilized and has a melting temperature selected from a range with a lower limit of 250° C. and an upper limit of 350° C. 
     
     
         28 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in either one of  claims 26 , wherein the thermoplastic elastomer is glass-fiber-reinforced, carbon-fiber-reinforced, mineral-filled and/or glass-bead-filled. 
     
     
         29 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 25 , wherein the material of the hard shell has a notched impact strength selected from a range with a lower limit of 3 KJ/m 2  and an upper limit of 60 KJ/m 2 . 
     
     
         30 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  5 , wherein the material of the hard shell has a fracture stress selected from a range with a lower limit of 40 MPa and an upper limit of 230 MPa. 
     
     
         31 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 25 , wherein the material of the hard shell has a density selected from a range with a lower limit of 1.00 g/cm 3  and an upper limit of 1.6 g/cm 3 . 
     
     
         32 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 25 , wherein the hard shell is anatomically shaped, at least on that side that is facing the back side of the hand or the inner surface of the hand. 
     
     
         33 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein the protector withstands heating of the material of the outer and inner hand at a contact temperature of at least 250° C. for a time period of at least 10 seconds. 
     
     
         34 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein the protector is arranged in the region of the back of the hand, the base joints of the fingers, the end joints of the fingers and/or the shaft of the back side of the hand and/or in the region of the ulnar nerve or the base joint of the thumb of the inner surface of the hand. 
     
     
         35 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein the protector is connected to the glove by sewing, adhesive bonding and/or insertion. 
     
     
         36 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein a damping or resilient element is arranged in the region of the at least one protector in the region of the base joints of the fingers, the edge of the hand and/or the inner surface of the hand. 
     
     
         37 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 36 , wherein the damping or resilient element is arranged in the region of the protector and is covered by a further protector or a covering. 
     
     
         38 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 36 , wherein the damping or resilient element is formed as a spring or as a pad. 
     
     
         39 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in  claim 36 , wherein the damping or resilient element is formed as a helical spring or as a pad comprising an elastomer. 
     
     
         40 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein at least one carabiner and/or eyelet comprising a thermoplastic elastomer, in particular polyamide, is/are arranged on the glove and the at least one carabiner and/or eyelet has/have a temperature resistance of at least 200° C. for at least 9 seconds. 
     
     
         41 . The heat-resistant glove as claimed in claim  20 , wherein at least one carabiner and/or eyelet comprising polyamide is/are arranged on the glove and the at least one carabiner and/or eyelet has/have a temperature resistance of at least 200° C. for at least 9 seconds.
