Welder's Garment Assembly

Abstract

A welder's garment assembly for protecting a welder from heat and electricity includes a garment that can be worn by a user. The garment is comprised of a pair of insulating layers that are sandwiched between a pair of covering layers. Each of the insulating layers is comprised of an energy absorbing material to protect the user during welding. A respective one of the covering layers is comprised of a resilient material to protect the insulating layers from abrasion. Furthermore, a respective one of the covering layers is comprised of a deformable material for enhancing comfort for wearing the garment.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A welder's garment assembly having electrical insulating and thermal insulating properties, said assembly comprising:
 a garment being configured for wearing on a user, said garment being comprised of a pair of insulating layers being sandwiched between a pair of covering layers, each of said insulating layers being comprised of an energy absorbing material wherein said insulating layers are configured to protect the user during welding, a respective one of said covering layers being comprised of a resilient material to protect said insulating layers from abrasion, a respective one of said covering layers being comprised of a deformable material for enhancing comfort for wearing said garment.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said pair of covering layers includes an inner layer and an outer layer, said outer layer comprising said resilient material, said inner layer comprising said deformable material. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said pair of insulating layers includes a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer, said first insulating layer being comprised of a thermally insulating material wherein said first insulating layer is configured to protect the user from being burned during welding, said second insulating layer being comprised of an electrically insulating material wherein said second insulating layer is configured to protect the user from electrical current during welding. 
     
     
         4 . A welder's garment assembly having electrical insulating and thermal insulating properties, said assembly comprising:
 a garment being configured for wearing on a user, said garment being comprised of a pair of insulating layers being sandwiched between a pair of covering layers, each of said insulating layers being comprised of an energy absorbing material wherein said insulating layers are configured to protect the user during welding, a respective one of said covering layers being comprised of a resilient material to protect said insulating layers from abrasion, a respective one of said covering layers being comprised of a deformable material for enhancing comfort for wearing said garment, said pair of covering layers including an inner layer and an outer layer, said outer layer comprising said resilient material, said inner layer comprising said deformable material, said pair of insulating layers including a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer, said first insulating layer being comprised of a thermally insulating material wherein said first insulating layer is configured to protect the user from being burned during welding, said second insulating layer being comprised of an electrically insulating material wherein said second insulating layer is configured to protect the user from electrical current during welding.   
     
     
         5 . The assembly according to  claim 4 , wherein said garment comprises a glove including a plurality of fingers, a thumb, a palm and a cuff, said glove having a top side and a bottom side. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein:
 said top side comprises a resiliently stretchable material; and   said bottom side comprises said thermally insulating material.   
     
     
         7 . The assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein:
 said top side comprises said thermally insulating material;   said bottom side comprises said electrically insulating material; and   said cuff has a first portion extending from said palm toward and end of said cuff and a second portion extending between said first portion and said end of said cuff, said first portion comprising a resiliently stretchable material, said second portion comprising a mesh material.   
     
     
         8 . The assembly according to  claim 4 , wherein said garment comprises a jacket including a body, a pair of sleeves and a closure running along a full height of said body.
