A collapsible snow paddle. The paddle includes an elongated handle, a rotatable coupling affixed to one end of the handle, and a generally planar snow remover, the rotatable coupling affixed to a rear surface of the remover so that he remover may be collapsed against the handle for storage and extended transverse to the handle for use. The snow remover may have a scraper edge inclined at an angle relative to the surface of the snow remover for scraping ice and a relatively soft capped edge for removing snow.

A scalpel handle includes a receiving member to receive a blade therethrough and a main portion coupled to the receiving member. The main portion has a number of indentations on both a first surface and a second surface thereof. The indentations are evenly spaced between one another and the number of indentations extends from a first end proximate the receiving member along a first length of the main portion across an entire width thereof. The first length is at least two-thirds of a second length of an entirety of the main portion. The width of the main portion is at least five times a maximum width of the receiving member. A thickness of the main portion is at least 2.5 times a maximum thickness of the receiving member. All outer surfaces of the main portion including the first surface and the second surface are convex in shape around edges thereof.

In some examples, a multi-device removal and installation tool may include a device removal tool including a first side having a first receiver with a first dimension that removably receives a first device, and a second side having a second receiver with a second dimension that removably receives a second device. The first dimension may be different from the second dimension. A torque limit tool may apply, in a first rotation direction of the torque limit tool and the device removal tool, a tightening torque to the first device. Further, the torque limit tool may apply, in a second rotation direction of the torque limit tool and the device removal tool, a loosening torque to the first device. The second rotation direction may be generally opposite to the first rotation direction.

An improved assembly is described. The assembly includes a shaft affixed on a first side to a first handle and affixed to a tool on a second side. A first end of a continuous cord is affixed to the tool at a first location and a second end of the continuous cord is affixed to the tool at a second location. A second handle is affixed to a loop formed by the continuous cord. During use, a user grasps both handles, places the tool at a base of a payload, and pushes the assembly to load the payload onto the tool. By bending the users knees and not putting undue strain on the users back, the user may utilize the handles to lift and move the payload to a desired location.

A safety knife functions as both a box cutter and a separate line cutter. A slidable grip is manually displaceable between two stable safety positions. In one safety position, the grip obstructs access to a forwardly projecting blade. In a second safety position, the grip obstructs access to the line cutter.

Customized assistive gripping devices in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment, a customized assistive gripping device, comprising a body comprising an outer surface that conforms to an interior contour of a user's hand in a gripping configuration; and a slot located inside the body, wherein the slot comprises a first opening for receiving an object.

An adaptive holder is used to provide those lacking fine hand motor control skills and limited arm and shoulder range of motion with the ability to conveniently extend and orient utensils such as forks and spoons. Used with a universal adapter cuff, the holder includes a slotted head which receives the utensil handle. A gripping portion, attached to the head, is received by the cuff. The utensil may be angularly oriented relative to the head and is secured thereto by a frictional interference fit.

According to one aspect, a hand assist device may be configured for use with an endoscope. The hand assist device may comprise a body configured to removably couple to a handle of the endoscope. The body may comprise a recess configured to receive the handle of the endoscope. The recess may extend from a proximal end of the body to a distal end of the body. The body may also comprise a palm support portion and a finger support portion proximal to the palm support portion. The body may further comprise a base support portion distal to the palm support portion.

Slide hammer comprising: a shank and a weight, the weight being slidably arranged on the shank, the shank having a tool attachment section at a first axial end and a handle at a second axial end opposite from the first axial end, the handle extending away from the shank on at least a first radial side of the shank, wherein the handle comprises at least a first grip on the first radial side of the shank, wherein the at least first grip is attached to the shank with a shaft, and wherein the shaft is arranged in a bore extending longitudinally within the at least on grip.

A wrench structure includes a main body provided with a drive portion, a shank, a protruding block, a handle, a first connecting portion, and a second connecting portion. The shank has two first faces and two second faces formed on two sides thereof. The protruding block has two third faces and two fourth faces. The handle has two fifth faces and two sixth faces. The first connecting portion has two seventh faces and two eighth faces. Thus, the main body is sequentially provided with the drive portion, the shank, the second connecting portion, the protruding block, the first connecting portion, and the handle. The shank, the protruding block, the first connecting portion, and the handle have different height and width defined therebetween.
