Abstract

119,650. Beck, F. C. Aug. 2, 1917, [Convention date]. Limbs, artificial.-In limbs having a number of actuating-members, these are selected and operated by a member connected to the source oi power. A hand having jointed fingers and thumb, as shown, is opened against the ::ction of springs 33 by a cord 18 engaging a pulley 16 on an arm 15 pivoted to a toothed sector 12 mounted on a spindle 5. This sector is operated by a cord 1 through the selecting and operating member 2 which is pivoted to an arm 6 loosely pivoted on the spindle 5. A second cord 9 is operated to bring the member 2 into engagement with the toothed sector 12 or with a toothed lever 19, 20 which also is mounted on the spindle 5. The arm 20 of the toothed lever operates an arm 210 connected to a hinged member 22 and adapted to increase the grip on the article held by slackening the cord 18.
