Abstract:
An adaptive grip for aiding users with limited hand use and dexterity to grasp everyday essential objects, comprising a finger grip, an anchor, and a clasping mechanism. The finger grip includes at least two rings for inserting fingers of the user and a vertical stem for coupling with the anchor which is positioned perpendicularly along the vertical stem. The clasping mechanism has a clip with rubber-lined curved teeth for grasping objects, a lever for loosening and tightening the clip around the object, and a horizontal shaft for securing the clasping mechanism to the anchor. The user can position and secure the anchor and clasping mechanism by a first and second thumb screw, respectively, to maintain a comfortable and easy to use adaptive grip.
