Abstract:
The present invention 10 discloses a universal lug wrench that can be used by ordinary people to loosen and fasten the lug nuts 12 on automobile tires 14 without undue strain on the users part. This is made possible by a supporting adjustment stand 16 and the longer arm 18 of the wrench 20. The present invention 10 is also easy to disassemble and store and also versatile as the sockets 22, 23 for the lug nuts 12 of different sizes can easily be interchanged. The purpose of the wrench 20 is to exert a torque on a lug nut 12 at the socket 22 end and around the axis by pressing the handle end 21. The improved wrench of the present invention 10 eliminates the unwanted torque generated by a conventional wrench 24. The present invention 10 has an extension 54 for the sockets 22 that are inserted into the adjustable clamp 56 and provides a pivoting point for the wrench 20. Various sockets 22, 23 can be interchangeably used for lug nuts 12 of different sizes.
