Wristguard for Tremors
grabcad
06JUN: Realized that it may be better to "Pull" than to "Push" (see attached Far Side cartoon). Note: I specified a rigid barrel syringe (i.e., Medallion by Merit Medical) so that the plunger tip can move smoothly. A dedicated linear damper could be used for a more durable prototype. -------------------- Inspired by wrist guards worn by roller skaters, this concept uses a series of 1cc disposable syringes as cylinders. Using luer connectors you can fine tune performance to balance damping vs. range of motion (one-way valves, pressure relief valves, tubing to connect opposing syringes, etc). Syringes and luer fittings are inexpensive and replaceable. Sorry for the drawing in Word - still learning Inventor.
