ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a hygienic, turning control element which is used to actuate a mechanism, such as a door opener. More specifically, the invention relates to a hygienic turning handle (12) which is intended to be fitted to a door and which is used to control the actuation of a mechanism, such as a lock. The invention is of the type that consists of a hub (18), a main body (20) and a left-hand form actuation segment (26) comprising an essentially C-shaped inner concave surface which extends from the plane of the door. The invention is characterized in that, in the handle (12) rest position, the concavity of the actuation segment (26) is essentially oriented upwards and can receive part of the arm, the wrist or the back of the hand of a user.
