Grips with the thumb in the lateral position (the thumb is sideways to the palm)
Column grip
The thumb closes towards the palm, then the remaining fingers
bend over the thumb. In doing so, the thumb blocks the closing
movement of the index finger and lets it protrude beyond the other
three fingers.
Application examples: this grip can be used to push large buttons
(e.g. light switches) and for putting on clothes.
Finger point
The middle finger, ring finger, little finger and thumb move towards
the palm. The index finger remains extended.
Application examples: small buttons can be operated with this grip
(e.g. keyboard, remote control).
Key grip
The fingers close partway. In doing so, the thumb grasps the index
finger sideways. This makes it possible to secure and release flat
objects with the thumb, without movement of the remaining fingers.
Application examples: this grip can be used to hold thin objects
without the remaining fingers moving (e.g. a spoon, paper, plate,
credit card or key).
Mouse grip
The thumb and little finger close to grasp the computer mouse
sideways. Only when the thumb encounters resistance can the
index finger be flexed. The index finger extends automatically when
no close signal is applied. An open signal loosens the grip.
Application examples: this grip makes it possible to operate a com­
puter mouse.
Open palm grip
In the open hand position, the thumb is in the lateral position to
achieve the largest possible flat palm. This grip
cannot
be selected
in the adjustment software.
Application examples: this grip makes it possible to carry plates on
the flat hand.
