Hold the Ball Insert and move the Ball left-right-up-down.
Turn the Tension Ring clockwise and anti clockwise. Notice the audible
tactile clicking sound. Observe the variable Ball tension.
The Ball can be moved 86 degrees from side to side on a 360 degree
periphery. Pushing the Actuating Button half way locks the ball in
hundreds of locking positions in 3D.
With a bit of feeling, the Actuating Button can also be used as a Bump-
Switch to lock or unlock the ROBO-WRIST by bumping it against a body
part such as the palm of hand, arm, knee, thigh or other firm surface.
Turning the Actuating Button 45 degrees clockwise prevents the
inadvertent locking of the ROBO-WRIST during sporting activities.
Pushing the Ball Button and pulling out the Ball Insert allows for rapid
exchange of Terminal devices.
The 2-part Titanium Adapter shown in Figure 3 can be carried in a
pocket for use whenever necessary. The Locking Insert is compatible
with any other ROBO-WRIST Insert but is best used only in conjunction
with the Locking Ring. Once inserted, the Locking Ring can be spun
onto the Insert in seconds, thus keeping the ball straight when seated
firmly atop the Tension Ring, but no longer vulnerable to heavy blows or
shock.
