Model hand for electromagnetic testing
View Patent ↗A model hand ( 120, 700 ) for use in electromagnetic testing comprising a body ( 210, 710 ) and at least one digit ( 220, 780 ) extending from a side of the body. For one embodiment, the body ( 210 ) has an outer semi-cylinder surface ( 230 ) with an arcuate shape and an inner semi-cylinder surface ( 240 ) following the arcuate shape of the outer semi-cylinder surface. A digit ( 220 ) is coupled at a base end ( 260 ) coupled to the side ( 250 ) of the cylindrical body ( 210 ) to permit pivotal motion of the digit relative to the cylindrical body. For another embodiment, the body ( 710 ) has a palm-like shape with four static digits ( 740 - 770 ) affixed at one end to the palm-shaped body. In addition to the four static digits ( 740 - 770 ), a dynamic digit ( 780 ) extends from the body ( 710 ) and couples to the body to permit pivotal motion of the digit relative to the body.
1. A model hand for use in electromagnetic testing comprising:
a cylindrical body having an outer semi-cylinder surface with an arcuate shape and an inner semi-cylinder surface following the arcuate shape of the outer semi-cylinder surface; and
a digit, having a rigid linear form, extending from a side of the cylindrical body, the digit including a base end coupled to the side of the cylindrical body to permit pivotal motion of the digit relative to the cylindrical body.
2. The model hand of claim 1 , wherein the digit is cylindrical in shape.
3. The model hand of claim 1 , wherein the digit includes a distal end, located opposite the base end, having a tapered shape.
4. The model hand of claim 1 , wherein the cylindrical body includes first and second lateral sides, the first lateral side being longer than the second lateral side.
5. The model hand of claim 1 , wherein the cylindrical body includes first and second lateral sides, the cylindrical body having a width extending between the first and second lateral sides that is greater than the length of the first and second lateral sides, individually.
6. The model hand of claim 5 , wherein the digit includes a distal end, located opposite the base end, the digit having a length from the base end to the distal end that is less than the width but greater than the length of the cylindrical body.
