Abstract

206,455. Retif, G. June 9, 1923. Finger-exercising apparatus. - A device for exercising the fingers, parparticularly intended for use by musicians, comprises means for holding the fingers. in grips to which oscillatory movements are imparted in accordance with a predetermined cycle. The grips consist of members 17 provided with resilient pads 21 which can be tightened by screws, and each member 17 is pivoted to a carrier 28 adjustably secured to an arm 29. The arms 29 are adjustably secured on either of two shafts 1, 2 which are connected by cranks 4, 5 and links with the strap of an eccentrio 9 on a shaft 10, so that the shafts 1, 2, and the arms 29, are oscillated as the shaft 10 rotates. When in use, the wrist of the operator rests on a support 19 and may be clamped to it. The range of movement of the fingers is regulated by adjusting the position of the carriers 28.
