  • Ergonomic gear shift grip adjuster
    Patent number: 10198024
    Abstract: An ergonomic adapter for a transmission tower for a motor vehicle, such as a tractor-trailer is disclosed. The adapter includes a tower mounting bracket that is removably coupled to the tower of the transmission and can be positioned at a selected position along the height of the transmission tower and at a selected angular position about an axis of the tower. The adapter also includes an extension bracket rotatably coupled with the tower mounting bracket about an extension axis. The extension bracket can be fixed to the tower mounting bracket at a selected angular position about the extension axis. The adapter also includes a handle rotatably coupled to the extension bracket about a handle axis. The handle can be fixed to the handle at a selected angular position about the handle axis. The adapter allows a driver to adapt the transmission tower to the driver's body to provide improved operation of the vehicle.
