Grips

Non-Opposed - Thumb is parallel with the fingers

Finger Point

With the thumb in the non-opposed setting, the user 
can move to Finger Point position. The middle, ring, and 
little fingers close against the palm and the thumb moves 
against the middle finger. With this grip, typing on a 
keyboard or input pad, pressing a bell or a button can be 
achieved. 

Key

 

In the non-opposed thumb position, the four fingers 
partially close. The thumb then closes onto the side of 
the index finger. The thumb position may be raised and 
lowered without moving the other four fingers allowing for 
release, capture or reposition of the object being gripped. 
This pattern is ideal for carrying paper or letters, using a 
spoon and for holding a thin flat object such as a plate, a 
credit card or a key.

Open Palm

With the thumb in the non-opposed position the hand may 
be fully opened to provide a flat palm suitable for carrying 
a tray or a plate.
