  • Patent number: 10688649
    Abstract: A handle grip for use with a handle. The handle grip has a grip sleeve and a grip attachment mechanism that securely attaches the handle grip to the handle in a manner which allows the handle grip to be easily removed and replaced. In one configuration, the attachment mechanism is a locking clip with two locking members positioned inside of a channel through the grip sleeve. At least one of the locking members has engaging members on an engaging surface thereof. When the handle grip is positioned on the handle, the engaging members engage the gripping elements of a grip engaging pattern on an adjacent engaging surface of the handle. A base member joins the locking members and closes the bottom of the channel. A locking pin can be inserted through the grip sleeve, locking clip and handle to more securely join the handle grip to the handle.
