Abstract:
A trigger assembly for controlling an electric power tool including a motor comprises a base for fixing within the power tool and a trigger supported by the base for inward and outward movement. The base has a housing, a first mechanical switch provided in the housing and operable to switch on and off the motor, and an electronic operating circuitry provided in the housing for controlling the operation of the motor when the first switch is closed. The base includes a slider guided within the housing for movement by the trigger to operate the first switch and the operating circuitry. Also included is a second mechanical switch provided within the housing and operable in response to the movement of the trigger to switch on and off an auxiliary device for the power tool. The auxiliary device is located externally of the base and is operable independently of the operating circuitry.
Abstract:
Tool with self-locking grip featuring a handle (1), two levers (2a) and (2b), and a self-locking device (3), in which the handle (1) features a main body (45), containing two prismatic housing-guides (4a) and (4b) which hold the two levers. These are removable and interchangeable with other levers for performing different mechanical functions, where the self-locking device (3) is kinetically connected between the main body (45) and one of the levers. The main body (45) also contains a third prismatic guide (9) for a further removable lever (10); this lever, being connected as required to the same a self-locking device (3) and sliding inside its own housing, approaching a counter element (14) fixed to the main body (45) allows vice-like fastening of the tool to a protruding part of the work bench.
Abstract:
A wrench having two driving stems pivotally connected with each other. One of the driving stems has a main stem and a female joint protruding from a rectangular or cylindrical section of the main stem with a hole at a center thereof. The other driving stem has the other main stem and a male joint projecting out of the center of a rectangular or cylindrical section of the main stem. The male joint and the female joint are engaged with each other via a coupler such as a roll pin. Therefore, without using an additional hinge or other mechanical coupler, these two driving stems are pivotally connected with each other.
Abstract:
An apparatus for an expandable screw including an outer screw, a inner screw, and an end nut. An assembly and method for driving and expanding an expandable screw apparatus into a surface or structure. The assembly and method dynamically expand the expandable screw by driving and expanding the expandable screw simultaneously.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed toward a road side lug nut removal and tightening tool, which may also be used to lift a tire back onto the axle of a car, or truck. The tool comprises a frame, with a slideable plate having apertures arranged in a circular configuration. The apertures are aligned with the configuration of the lug nuts on a wheel, enabling a lug wrench to be coupled to a lug nut and corresponding aperture of the plate. A hollow extension bar may be connected to the lug wrench to apply additional leverage. By laying the frame horizontally on the ground, the hollow extension bar may be placed under lift brackets attached to the frame, enabling the frame to be used as a lever to lift a tire onto the axle of a car, or truck.
Abstract:
An insulating hand tool has an elongated shank injection molded of a high-strength, electrically insulating material, such as glass-reinforced nylon, and a handle formed of an electrically insulating material. The handle and the shank may be molded together in a unitary, one-piece construction, or the handle end of the shank may be press-fitted in an axial bore in one end of the handle or the shank may be insert molded into the handle. The working end of the shank is adapted to carry a working tip or a socket, either of which may be insert molded in the working end of the shank or may be press-fitted in an axial bore therein. The socket may form a nut driver or define a receptacle to removably receive a working tip. The working tip may be a commercially-available, double-ended bit, with a Phillips tip at one end embedded in the shank.
Abstract:
A driver bit and a header punch for manufacture of screws comprising a screw comprising substantially vertical end wall portions of predetermined depth formed on an end edge portion of a bit fitting groove on a screw head, non-planar bottom portions raised from lower edge portions of the vertical end wall portions toward a center of the screw head, inclined groove portions extending from raised portions of the non-planar bottom portions toward a center of a screw neck, a substantially conical-shaped bottom surface formed on a bottom of the groove, the bit fitting groove being adapted to a driver bit, which has a blade adapted to be fitted into the bit fitting groove and has a lower edge portion of the blade adapted to abut against the non-planar bottom portions. In this manner, groove portions of a cross groove on the screw are improved in construction, whereby it is possible to effectively prevent a driver bit from coming out, prevent breakage of screws caused in the prior art, always achieve an appropriate and rapid screw fastening work even when the cross groove of the screw is broken, and to significantly enhance an efficiency in work.
Abstract:
A combination tool includes a first tool part and a second tool part. The first tool part includes a first cylindrical member connected to a handle. The said first cylindrical member has a pair of ends, at least one of which is formed to define at least a partial socket. The handle has a longitudinal bore with an open end. The second tool part includes a first rod that is insertable in the bore of the handle.
Abstract:
New system for holding and fastening screws comprising a screw head provided with a mortise hole (1) having a tapered configuration along the screw longitudinal axis, said mortise hole (1) having a number of lugs (2) and the corresponding circular sections (3); and comprising a suitable screwdriver o fastening tool head tip (4) having a definite shape and wings (5), both according to the corresponding number of lugs (2) in order to match said screw head mortise hole (1); and comprising the required punching mortise die tool for the definite conformation of said screw head mortise hole (1) and said screwdriver or fastening tool head tip (4).
Abstract:
A multi-purpose hand tool which includes a handle body with a plurality of drive tools mounted on an axis at one end allowing various tools such as hex tools, screwdriver tools, torx tools and others to rotate for use. Pivoting folding wingbars are affixed to the handle by an axis to give additional torque to the drive tools. At the opposite end of the drive tools in the handle is a square opening to receive various independent hand and power ratchet drives. The tool incorporates lifting levers which are affixed to the handle by an axis. The levers when depressed toward the folding tool will lift the drive tools away from the handle to provide easier selection of a particular drive tool. A second embodiment has a ratchet mechanism assembly with two folding wingbars which eliminate the need for an independent ratchet handle or driver.
