This invention relates to an improved construction of finger and toe housing devices. It is adapted to be readily applied to the ends of fingers or toes for protecting injured and wounded areas. Still another aim of the invention is to improve and provide a housing construction that may be economically manufactured and sold to be worn in order to protect and enable the wearer to perform their duties in the home and office, requiring the use of the hands and legs during the recovery period. Still a further aim of the invention is to provide a strong protector of the class described of self-contained resilient molded bead-spine-hinged connected section having yieldable means of holding the sections in applied position with the built-in rear locking system 2 and 13, beyond the last joint of the finger or toe. Both sections 1 and 10 provide a convex apertured portion adapted to house the injured finger or toe during the recuperation period. Still another aim of the device is to provide a strong, protective and completely encased storage holding area for the injured fingers or toes to heal safely and comfortably.
