Abstract: The present invention relates to torque application tools, such as an electronic torque screwdriver, with a multiple axis gyroscope (such as a 3-axis gyroscope or other type of gyroscope) and torque sensor that allows for simultaneous or sequential measurement of torque and angle around the axis of the tool. Targets for torque and angle measurements may be used to create algorithms to detect breakaway torque, residual torque, or to perform error proofing to ensure unique fasteners are tightened.

Abstract: A tool for removing broken threaded fasteners such as seized or damaged Budd nuts mounted on a stud extending from the hub of a dual wheel assembly. The tool includes a base plate which is securable at the Budd nuts adjacent the broken nut by stand-off and fasteners. A cutter is advanceable by a pivotal bar by means of a manually operable adjustment knob. The cutter is rotatable in a busing and has a cutting head with a bore which extends over the damaged nut. Replaceable cutting teeth are carried on the cutting head and when advanced cut through the flange on the damaged Budd nut. The device can be powered by a power tool attachable to the device. A depth guide is provided to assist the mechanic in correctly determining the proper depth of cut. As the cutting head is advanced, the flange portion of the Budd nut is cut away so the inner wheel rim can be removed from the hub and thereafter the remaining shaved Budd nut can be easily removed.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved device for simultaneously replacing a plurality of lug nuts through the use of computer technology, modularity, energy-efficiency, safety features and ease of use. Computer technology monitors and controls the torque on each lug nut. This invention also displays the loosening or tightening status of each lug nut on a small LCD screen. The present invention achieves modularity through a series of interchangeable gear train assemblies, contained in separate unitary housings, which correspond to respective vehicular wheel depth and wheel lug patterns. Also, magnetic concentric sockets are used to capture and hold lug nuts as they are removed from the vehicle's wheel and to remove and replace theft protection devices such as rim or wheel locks. This invention provides ease of use with user-friendly controls and a light-weight unitary housing that eliminates the need of assistance from another person.

Abstract: This tool would make automotive wheel lug nut tightening an exact science, insuring precision from one job to the next. Chances for human error are minimized; once the tool is correctly applied to the lug nuts, there is no need to rely on any particular expertise from the mechanic, as the tool takes over setting the wheel properly, and then applying the final correct torque in accord with manufacturer's specification.

Abstract: A screwing tool for an impact wrench for screwing wheel nuts onto and off from a hub body for securing a vehicle wheel, having a main body, which has an open side oriented toward the wheel nuts and which includes a hollow profile. The hollow profile has a tool contour, which is arranged on the open side and can be brought into engagement with a wheel nut contour. At least one peripheral control edge is remote from the open side for releasing a retention element. The control edge has a circular arc region with a constant control edge height h1 and a cam region with a control edge height h2 that decreases continuously and then increases again continuously. Height h1 is equal to h2 in the respective transition of the circular arc region and the cam region, such that the geometrical shape of an oval is reproduced in cross section.

Abstract: A tightening device is able to check that a fastening member has been fastened to a desired set torque or greater after being tightened, without loosening the fastening member. The tightening device is provided with a mode switching switch for switching between a first tightening process of adjusting the output of a motor after measured torque that is measured by a torque detector has reached a preset first control start torque, such that the measured torque reaches a preset first set torque in a phased manner through repeated increases and decreases in torque, and blocking power supply to the motor when the measured torque reaches the first set torque, and a second tightening process of driving the motor at an initial output that is less than in the first tightening process, adjusting the output of the motor after the measured torque that is measured by the torque detector has reached a preset second control start torque, such that the measured torque reaches a preset second set torque in a phased manner through repeated increases and decreases in torque, and blocking power supply to the motor when the measured torque reaches the second set torque.
