Abstract
A gripping member of an operating handle is adjustable via a holder around a rotational axis aligned substantially perpendicularly relative to its longitudinal axis, with the rotational axis being in the middle region of the gripping member. In a further version, the gripping member is adjustable via a holder around a swiveling axis that intersects an axis aligned substantially perpendicularly relative to the longitudinal axis of the gripping member with the rotational axis lying in the middle of the gripping member. Finger operated switches are located on the gripping member and various pressure sensors are activated dependent upon the movement of the gripping member and its holder about relevant axes.
