Abstract
A vibrating hammer glove having a motor housing cover with a palm portion across the top of a hammer housing includes downwardly depending flaps which wrap around the housing and fasten with a stationary fitting. Further, a securement strap is trained through slots in the flaps so that the terminating ends thereof engage in a hook and pile fastener. A cushion between the palm portion of the cover and the underside of the strap provides additional shock and vibration absorption. A securement ring midway between opposite strap ends engages the stationary fitting so that the strap and glove are properly aligned, mounted, and retained on the housing. Air vents are provided in the palm portion and in the attachment flaps, whereby heat generated within the housing is dissipated to the environment.
