Handgrip

A wrist support (10) includes a base member (11) of a flexible material adapted to be formed into a tubular sleeve. A stay (30) is formed from a resilient material and includes a support member having first and second sides, a top and bottom and a plurality of slits wherein the support member provides support and the slits allow for additional flexibility. Further provided is a means for operatively connecting a stay proximate the base member. A loop member 17 is operatively connected to the base member 11 and mating member 13 is also operatively connected to the base member 11 at an end opposite the loop member. The mating member has a connecting element 13a operatively connected to a tab element 13b. The tab element 13b is wider than the length of the loop member 17 and has to be deformed to pass through the slot to the opening 17a and the loop member 17.

Wrist support and wrist support stay

Wrist support

A support stay for use with an article to be worn by a person has two durometers of hardness. The support stay includes a base member having a first hardness, the first hardness sufficient to provide a required rigidity for support. A gripping member is operatively connected to the base member and has attachment areas which extend beyond the ends of the base member. The gripping member has a second hardness which is softer than the first hardness. The gripping member, when attached to the inner surface of the article by attachment areas, provides a non-slip surface against the person wearing the article to keep the article in position.

A support stay for use with an article to be worn by a person has two durometers of hardness. The support stay includes a base member having a first hardness, the first hardness sufficient to provide a required rigidity for support. A gripping member is operatively connected to the base member. The gripping member has a second hardness which is softer than the first hardness. The gripping member, when attached to the inner surface of the article, provides a non-slip surface against the person wearing the article to keep the article in position.

Combined suction and irrigation surgical instrument

A knee pad includes a base member which, when unassembled, is planar. A top member is operatively connected to the base member. In a preferred embodiment, the top member is also, when unassembled, planar. The base member has first and second points of attachment and, when unassembled, are at a first distance from each other. The top member has first and second points of attachment which, when unassembled, are also a first distance from each other. Provided are means for securing the top member to the base member at the points of attachment wherein, when assembled, the first and second points of attachment of the base member are at a second distance from each other. The second distance is less than the first distance wherein the base member forms a cupped region. Also provided is a means for attaching the base and top members to a user's knee.

Knee pad

A foot rest (10), being positioned on a generally planar surface, includes a generally cylindrical sector support member (20), having an outer surface (21) and an inside surface (22). A generally cylindrical sector base member (30) has an outside surface (31) and inner surface (32). The inside surface (22) is positioned proximate the outside surface (31) and the members (20 and 30) are substantially concentric. A platform member (50) is operatively connected to the support member (20). The platform member (50) has pivotally mounted thereto a foot lock lever (40). A bolt (60) is used to lock the members (30 and 20) in a plurality of relative positions after relative rotational movement between the members (20 and 30), thereby defining a plurality of heights of the foot rest with respect to the planar surface.

Adjustable foot rest

A wrist rest support system for supporting a wrist rest beyond the edge of a working surface, including an extension clamp having a cantilever plate having a first end member proximate the working surface and a second end member, the second end member having a distal end cantilevered away from the working surface. Each end member has a separate longitudinal axis spaced laterally apart. The longitudinal axes are approximately parallel. A fastener for attaching the cantilevered plate to the working surface is connected to the first end member of the cantilever plate. The second end of the cantilever plate has a groove proximately perpendicular to the second axis. The groove is for receiving a sculpted portion of a base member of the wrist rest. A retaining member is disposed upwardly at the distal end of the second end member. The retaining member is for retaining the wrist rest on the second end member.

Wrist rest support system

Adjustable wrist rest

A wrist rest (10), being positioned on a generally planar surface, includes a generally cylindrical sector support member (15) having an outside surface and an inside surface. A generally cylindrical sector base member (11) has an outside surface and an inner surface, the inside surface of the support member positioned proximate the outside surface of the base member (11). The members (11) and (15) are substantially concentric. The members (11) and (15) may be locked in a plurality of relative positions after relative rotational movement between the members (11) and (15), thereby defining a plurality of radial heights of the wrist rest (10) with respect to the planar surface. The support member (15) may include a first section (16) and second section (17) and further the distance between the sections (16) and (17) is adjustable.
