Abstract
A device adapted for handling slippery objects, such as peeled vegetables, is disclosed. The device can include a first finger cover; a second finger cover, in which each of the first and second finger covers includes an outer surface defining an inner volume having an open end; a strap coupling a first side of the first finger cover to a first side of the second finger cover; and a gripping surface formed on at least a portion of at least one of the first finger cover or the second finger cover.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- a first finger cover;
- a second finger cover, wherein each of the first and second finger covers comprise an outer surface defining an inner volume having an open end;
- a strap coupling a first side of the first finger cover to a first side of the second finger cover;
- and
- a gripping surface formed on at least a portion of at least one of the first finger cover or the second finger cover.
The device of claim 11, wherein the strap is formed of a unitary piece of material.
A device, comprising:
- first and second finger covers, wherein each of the first and second finger covers comprise an outer surface defining an inner volume having an open end and a closed end, wherein the first finger cover has a first length and the second finger cover has a second length, and wherein each of the first and second finger covers comprises a gripping surface disposed on a first side of the respective finger cover;
- and
- a strap coupling the first side of the first finger cover to the first side of the second finger cover such that the first side of the first finger cover and the first side of the second finger cover define a gripping gap therebetween.
A gripping device, comprising:
- first and second finger covers, wherein each of the first and second finger covers comprise an outer surface defining an inner volume having an open end, wherein each of the first and second finger covers comprises a gripping surface disposed on a first side of the respective finger cover, wherein the first and second finger covers are formed of a first material and the gripping surface is formed of a second material, and wherein the first material and the second material have different coefficients of friction;
- and
- a strap coupling the first side of the first finger cover to the first side of the second finger cover such that the first side of the first finger cover and the first side of the second finger cover define a gripping gap therebetween, wherein the strap is formed of a unitary piece of material.
