Patent attributes
An auxilary handle device for use with conventional handheld screwdrivers for applying additional torque and reducing muscle strain. The device includes a handle portion designed for being grasped by a human hand, and a coupling portion. The coupling portion selectively receives a handle of a conventional screwdriver. The coupling portion is operationally coupled to the handle portion such that rotation of the handle portion in a first direction imparts rotation in the first direction to the coupling portion and to the conventional screwdriver in turn. The coupling portion further comprises a cylindrical perimeter wall forming a cavity portion. The cavity portion slideably receives a portion of the handle of the conventional screwdriver. The coupling portion may further include a retaining means. The retaining means selectively secures the portion of the handle of the conventional screwdriver to the coupling portion.
