This is a tool designed for a patient who had lost his index, middle and ring finger and conserves the first phalanx of the thumb and pinky finger on his left hand (refer to pictures).
This allows him to perform tip grip and hold a nail or a screw.
The thimble had a PLA framework, a silicone body, and a magnet. The silicone body is fabricated by pouring silicone inside a mold (refer to pictures)
The framework has a circular pattern that allow a better attachment of the silicone and has a prolongation to avoid hiperflexion of the patient thumb. The fluted mold shape is for better suspension over the patient stump.
This object was made for the "Mutual de Seguridad C.Ch.C" from Chile. In a project of the Direction of Innovation and Development, and the Neuro Rehabilitation Institute.
