1887 results about "Knuckle" patented technology

The knuckles are the joints of the fingers. The word is cognate to similar words in other Germanic languages, such as the Dutch "knokkel" (knuckle) or German "Knöchel" (ankle), i.e., Knöchlein, the diminutive of the German word for bone (Knochen). Anatomically, it is said that the knuckles consist of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and interphalangeal (IP) joints of the finger. The knuckles at the base of the fingers may be referred to as the 1st or major knuckles while the knuckles at the midfinger are known as the 2nd and 3rd, or minor, knuckles. However, the ordinal terms are used inconsistently, and can be found referring to any of the knuckles.

Articulated artificial finger assembly

Disclosed is an articulated artificial finger assembly, which can be controlled by the remaining portion of an amputated finger. An adjacent finger is used to manipulate the device when no finger is present. When the stump or adjacent finger begins to bend at the first knuckle, the rest of the device will react to the movements and articulate in the natural manner of a human finger. There are two embodiments shown which, can accommodate a variety of cases. The first embodiment relates to an amputated finger with a portion of the finger remaining. The second is used when a total finger is absent. In either case, the first embodiment uses a ring that is placed over the remaining stub of the finger and the second embodiment a ring is placed over an adjacent finger. The ring, in either embodiment, actuates upper and or lower actuation drives, which are reciprocally and transversely attached to a pivoting block. The pivoting block is fastened to an adjustable middle phalangeal section. The transversely connected upper and lower actuation drives cause the middle phalangeal section to curl under when articulated. The middle phalangeal section is comprised of two main body parts. The first is an outer phalangeal section and the second phalangeal section is placed inside the outer phalangeal section and fastened thereto. A forward fingertip section is pivotally fastened to a forward end of the inner phalangeal section. A forward end of the upper actuating drive is pivotally connected to the forward fingertip section. A supple cover is placed over the device once it is assembled. An inner supple cover is inserted into the device and sealed along the edges of the outer supple cover. To complete the device a screw is inserted into the fingertip, passing through the supple cover and is then hidden by an artificial fingernail placed thereon.

Under-actuated coupling transmission type imitation human finger mechanism

The invention provides an under-actuated coupling driving finger-imitating mechanism, in particular to a finger-imitating mechanism on the manipulator of a robot. The invention solves the problems of poor harmonization of all knuckles, being difficult to keep holding shape, slow speed when wrapping the article to be held, poor adaptability, etc. when the existing manipulator finger carries out a holding motion. One end of the invention, which is close to a knuckle connecting rod (23), is connected with a basic joint moment sensor (22); the other end close to the knuckle connecting rod (23) is connected with the shaft disc (54) of a central joint shaft; one end of a coupling connecting rod (28) is connected with a left plate (25) close to the knuckle and a right plate (4) close to the knuckle; the other end of the coupling connecting rod (28) is connected with a fingertip (14); a central knuckle left plate (26) and a central knuckle right plate (2) are connected with the shaft disc (54) of the central knuckle shaft by a coupling central knuckle shaft (30). By adopting the coupling transmission way, the central knuckle and the fingertip of the invention have the advantages of good motion harmony when the finger is bent, fast speed and convenient pre-tightening when the article to be held is wrapped.
