Adapter for turning a knob and methods for making and using the adapter
Abstract:
Adapters for use with a driving device for turning a knob, and methods for making and using such an adapter are provided. In one example, an adapter includes a shaft that extends distally from a proximal end portion to a distal end portion and that defines a longitudinal axis. The proximal end portion is configured to operatively couple to the driving device for rotating the shaft about the longitudinal axis. An adapter body is coupled to the distal end portion of the shaft. At least one engaging member is disposed radially outward from the longitudinal axis and is configured for removably engaging the knob. A collar surrounds at least a portion of the at least one engaging member.
