<p>A handle for a mixer faucet is used to facilitate operating the faucet more easily by using primarily the wrist and forearm muscles. The handle comprises a gripping element (202) and a connector (204) to connect the handle to a mechanism lever of the mixer faucet. The gripping element comprises two sections, both of which lie along an axis substantially perpendicular to the mechanism lever's operating axes. Furthermore, each of the sections is located on an opposite side of the mechanism lever's operating axis. To operate the faucet, the operator's hand holding or touching the handle is aligned in such a way that the longitudinal axis of the hand is substantially continual with the longitudinal axis of the mechanism lever. This allows operating the mixer faucet by using primarily gentle motor skill-type movements.</p> |
