Claim Text:
1. A hand and finger exerciser apparatus, comprising: a base unit structure; a plurality of movable finger button devices; first means for slidably connecting said plurality of finger button devices to said base unit structure; second means operably connected to said base unit structure and to said first means; said second means including a plurality of slidable components wherein each slidable component is operatively connected to an associated finger button device; each slidable component has a first position permitting its associated finger button device to slide within said first means, and a second position preventing its associated finger button device from sliding within said first means; each slidable component having a first protuberance exposed externally of said first means enabling an user to push said first protuberance moving the slidable component into said first position to selectively permit its associated finger button device to slide within said first means, and having a second protuberance exposed externally of said first means enabling the user to push said second protuberance moving the slideble component into said second position to selectively prevent its associated finger button device from sliding within said first means; said finger button devices and said slidable components being configured so that when the slidable component is in said first position its associated finger button device can slide within said first means, and when the slidable component is in said second position said second position its associated finger button device is prevented from sliding within said first means; and third means, operatively connected to said base unit structure, said movable finger button devices and said first means, for providing resistance to moving of the finger button devices in a first direction from a first finger button device position, and for urging the finger button devices to move in a second direction back to said first finger button device position.
