介绍（中）	细长的袖带在截面上是半圆形的，并且具有低的内侧脊；其上缘内侧斜切，边折，便于弯管弯曲。覆盖下臂内侧的板以前通过铰链、带子和皮带扣连接到袖带上（其中一个铰链和皮带扣保留下来）。袖口顶部的两个孔使手套可以直接连接到整流罩（肘部警察）上。手背由五块掌骨板覆盖，上面两块在尺骨上凸起，一块凸起的指节板将掌骨连接到手套型的五指板上。袖口的底部装饰有向上辐射的V形凹槽，凹槽之间的区域填充有低浮雕的菱形面板；V形凹槽向下辐射，穿过手背和手指。指节的尖端用雕刻的菱形勾勒出来这种不寻常的手套覆盖了下臂直至肘部，并通过"点"（系带）固定在整流罩上，从而消除了对下鞋面支架的需求。这种类型的护肘在15世纪末在德国和奥地利被佩戴，其中一种护肘在丢勒著名的雕刻作品《骑士、死亡和魔鬼》中有说明，该雕刻作品的日期为1513年，但说明了大约1490年的盔甲（参见42.160.2）。尽管没有标记，这个手套类似于保存在维也纳Waffensammlung和Slulderno Churburg城堡（意大利）的其他几件印有因斯布鲁克军械师标志的肘部手套。这种手套细长的比例和辐射状凹槽表面形成的线性强调是15世纪晚期德国盔甲的典型特征，与当代意大利盔甲更丰满、更圆的形式截然不同。
介绍（英）	The long, slender cuff is semicircular in section and has a low medial ridge; its upper edge is obliquely cut on the inner side, with turned edge, to facilitate the bending of the elbow. A plate to cover the inside of the lower arm was formerly attached to the cuff by hinges and a strap and buckle (one of the hinges and the buckle remain). The two holes at the top of the cuff allowed the gauntlet to be attached directly to the cowter (elbow cop). The back of the hand is covered by five metacarpal plates, the upper two embossed over the ulna, and an embossed knuckleplate connects the metacarpal lames to the five finger lames of mitten type. The base of the cuff is decorated with V-shaped flutes radiating upward, the area between them filled with a diamond-shaped panel embossed in low relief; V-shaped flutes radiate in a downward directiona cross the back of the hand and fingers. The points of the knuckles are outlined with engraved diamond shapes. This unusual type of gauntlet covered the lower arm up to the elbow and was secured to the cowter by a "point" (lace), and consequently eliminated the need for the lower vambrace. Elbow gauntlets of this type were worn in Germany and Austria at the very end of the fifteenth century, and one of this type is illustrated in Dürer's famous engraving Knight, Death, and the Devil, which is dated 1513 but which illustrates an armor of about 1490 (acc. no. 42.160.2). Though unmarked, this gauntlet is similar to several other elbow gauntlets stamped with the marks of Innsbruck armorers that are preserved in the Waffensammlung, Vienna, and Churburg Castle, Slulderno (Italy). The long, slender proportions of this gauntlet and the linear emphasis created by its radiating fluted surfaces are features typical of late fifteenth-century German armor and are quite distinct from the fuller, more rounded forms of contemporary Italian armor.
