Foldable - Toggle Operated
The Vee-Zee C5 Reacher is designed for people with severe arthritis, spinal injuries, wrist deformities or minimally functional trunk musculature.
The Vee-Zee C5 Reacher does not require finger function. It is operated from a T-shaped toggle lever at the top, instead of a conventional trigger and can also be operated with the mouth via cord and ball. The arm support relieves virtually all stress on the radial side of the wrist while the wrist support prevents non-functional wrist extension. In the case of flexion, the support on the inside of the palm grip helps to control ulnar deflection of the wrist. The arm and wrist supports may be formed to individual requirements or moved from one side to the other to accommodate left or right hand use.
the reacher is constructed from a lightweight, sturdy aluminum channel with rubber-lined claws that open to 3 1/2" (9 cm) and close completely. A hook-and-loop fastener button latches the halves in the folded position when not in use.
Overall length is 36" (91 cm) and folds to 20" (51 cm). Weighs only 11.5 oz. (.326 kg)with a shipping weight of 1 lb., 6 oz. (.63 kg).
U.S. Patent #4,613,179
