結するネジ部材である。Next, the structure inside the grip body (2) will be described. An opening (28) is formed in the lower portion of the grip body (29), and a finger hanging frame (30) is provided through the opening (28) so as to be retractable from the grip body (2). . As shown in FIG. 8, the finger hanging frame (30) has a substantially rectangular shape and has a concave notch (31) on its upper side surface. A spring (32) is provided at the corner of the grip body (2) to support the pivot (3).
3) (shown in FIG. 6) via one end of the spring (3
4) is locked on the upper surface of the finger hanging frame (30), and the other end (35)
Are locked to the upper part in the grip body (2), and thereby the finger frame (30) is urged to project downward from the opening (28). On the other hand, in the grip body (2), a slide member is urged by a spring (36) laterally of the finger hanging frame (30) and is movable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the moving direction of the finger hanging frame (30). (37) is provided, and the stopper (38) provided so as to project on the side surface of the slide member (37) is provided with the concave cutout portion (3) of the finger hanging frame (30).
When located in 1), the finger hanging frame (30) is provided so as to project from the opening (28). (4
Reference numeral 0) is a guide hole provided in the grip body (2), and (41) is a slide operation plate (4) provided outside the grip body (2).
Reference numeral 2) is a screw member that is loosely fitted in the guide hole (40) and connects the slide operation plate (41) to the protrusion (45) of the slide member (37).

8)から突出させることができる。Therefore, when the finger frame (30) is housed in the grip body (2) against the spring (32), the stopper (38) is located on one side of the concave cutout (31) as shown in FIG. Since it is located at a position away from the lower end edge (43), the stored state of the finger hanging frame (30) can be maintained. Next, when the slide operating plate (41) is operated to align the stopper (38) with the concave notch (31) against the spring (36),
As shown by the dotted line in FIG. 6, the finger frame (30) is opened (2
8) can be projected.

擦を強め、滑り止めの役目にもなるものである。[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the finger training device of the present invention has the following effects due to the fact that the finger hanging frame is provided on the grip body.
Since the little finger and the dragging finger enter the finger hanging frame, the grip is firmly fixed, and it is particularly effective when used for rehabilitation of a person without grip strength, for example, a physically handicapped person or an elderly person.
Since the grip is fixed, "blur" when gripping the grip
It reduces the number of strokes, smoothens the rotation of the rollers, and enables fine movements of the fingertips. It is expected that the training for writing letters will be more effective than the conventional training. It also strengthens skin friction and serves as a non-slip agent.
