Prosthetic Wrist Clamp

Last crawled date: 1 year, 10 months ago

This design is a new approach to this very interesting challenge. One thing I noticed from many of the terminal devices currently on the market is that they seem to restrict the user to a single task. For example, while a basketball prosthetic is great for playing basketball it makes going to the bathroom or drinking from a cup near impossible.
This device seeks to solve that issue by providing a non-invasive device that can be used with prosthetic hand hooks or other devices. The device also leverages clamps to allow the user to use it for a number of activities and virtually any tool with a grip on it. Some examples of what it can be used with are a golf club, a rake, a fishing rod, a Swiffer/mop, a tennis racket, a paint brush/roller, etc. All parts of this design can be printed except for the strap and certain parts such as the screws can be store bought if necessary or if that proves to be cheaper than printing.

I hope you enjoy my design and I would like to say thanks for the opportunity to participate in such a fun and rewarding design competition.
