area between both branches can be used for anchoring oblong objects,
such as a file without a handle (Fig. 3).
Exchangeable finger covers can be mounted on the branches. This will pro-
vide the Greifer with a non-skid surface. So it is possible to move a sheet
of paper by the back side of the fingers (Fig. 4, Hook with finger cover).
A tappet about 8 mm (0.3 in.) in length is located on the outside of the mov-
able finger providing three-point support for e.g. holding a pencil (Fig. 5).
10A18=* Cable Control Hook for Adults
This cable control hook was developed for simple workmanship activities. A
cross tappet is located on the inside of the fix branch and serves as girder
and outer support (Fig. 6).
The pair of springs can be used to select two levels of grip force.
If the spring lever is set proximally, the grip force is lower (Fig. 1, item A).
This setting is intended for ordinary everyday use and for grasping objects.
It allows to use less energy while working.
If the spring lever is set distally, the grip force is higher (Fig. 2, item B).
This position is suited for holding an object in the hook.
10A12=* All-purpose Hook
This cable control hook was developed for workmanship activities.
Its special shape allows to carry out a number of various activities (Fig.
7, 8, 9, 12).
The Hook is in the shape of a ring with hook when in closed condition.
When used for work with a shovel, the branches are arranged so as to
provide additional closing force under load (Fig. 8).
Examples of other applications are shown in Fig. 9 to 12.
