Methods and Apparatuses for Extracting Fasteners
A method for removing a fastener with an extractor tool. The method comprising providing the fastener and the extractor tool, wherein the fastener includes a head portion and the extractor tool includes a drive head, a torque-tool body, an external thread, and a tubular sleeve. The method further comprising driving the torque-tool body of the extractor tool into an engagement recess of the fastener head portion and applying rotational force to the extractor tool to rotate the fastener. The method further comprising rotating the tubular sleeve along the external thread and into contact with the fastener, pressing the external sleeve axially against the fastener to remove the fastener from the extractor tool.
Wild game tote with interchangeable hunting tools
A multi-functional wild game tote that functions not only as a lightweight, convenient and compact carrier for one or more game animals such as birds, small mammals and fish harvested in the wild, but also as a multi-purpose tool having numerous interchangeable hunting tools useful when hunting wild game, especially wild turkeys. The carrier function of the wild game tote is provided by an ergonomically designed, elongate, rigid handle member having opposite ends and one or more cords extending through the handle member for carrying the harvested game. The multi-purpose tool function of the wild game tote is provided by hunting tools that are detachably mounted on both ends of the handle member such as a scale for weighing the harvested game, or a blade-sharpening stone for sharpening a hunter's knife. The tote also has hash markings on the handle member that denote the measurement of length.

Tool Bit Holder
A tool bit holder that accommodates and secures specific ranges of hexagonal wrench sizes in different physical orientations therein, for four purposes: speed rotation of the tool for fast bolt extraction, support of the hexagonal wrench's shaft for an increased torque application, mechanically strengthening of a hexagonal wrench, and for the application of torque centered about the longitudinal axis of the working arm of the hexagonal tool bit so as to prevent the stripping out of the hexagonal socket in the mechanical fastener.
Tool having one or more rotatable tool members
A tool is provided in order to facilitate utilization by users in a wide variety of applications. By way of example, a multipurpose tool may include first and second handles configured for relative movement between a closed position and an open position. At least the first handle includes an axle extending thereacross. The multipurpose tool also includes one or more tool members rotatably mounted upon the axle and foldable into the first handle and first and second jaws rotatably connected to the first and second handles, respectively. At least the first jaw defines an opening through which the axle of the first handle extends. The multipurpose tool further includes a resilient member disposed at least partially within the opening in order to apply a bias force to the first jaw during rotation of the first jaw relative to the first handle.
Multi-grip screw apparatus
A screw bit body allows for efficient torque force application onto a socket fastener. The screw bit body includes a plurality of laterally-bracing sidewalls, a first base, and a second base. The laterally-bracing sidewalls are radially distributed about a rotation axis of the screw bit body with each further including a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, a bracing surface, and an engagement cavity. The engagement cavity creates an additional gripping point to prevent slippage in between the screw bit body and the socket fastener. The engagement cavity traverses normal and into the bracing surface. Additionally, the engagement cavity traverses into the screw bit body from the first base to the second base. The engagement cavity is specifically positioned offset from the first lateral edge by a first distance.
Range Taking Shear Bolts and Drive Tools
Range taking shear bolts and bolt installation (drive) tools are described herein, which are configured for use with a variety of range taking connectors and conductors.
UNIVERSAL SKATEBOARD AND SURFBOARD TOOL
A compact, lightweight, universal multi-functional tool that can be used on the fly to adjust and repair surfboards and skateboards is disclosed. The tool includes a housing and an adjustment member. The housing comprises an elongated cylindrical member having a first elongated cylindrical member end and an opposing second elongated cylindrical member end; a first socket head integrally connected to the first elongated cylindrical member end, the first socket head defining a first hexagonal socket; a second socket head integrally connected to the second elongated cylindrical member end, the second socket head defining a second first hexagonal socket; and a cavity extending horizontally through the first socket head, the elongated cylindrical member, and the second socket head. The adjustment member, configured to be received within the cavity, the adjustment member comprises a first arm; and a second arm, the second arm integrally connected, and perpendicular to, the first arm.
Wear resistant tool bit
A tool bit for driving a fastener includes a shank having a tool coupling portion configured to be coupled to a tool. The tool coupling portion has a hexagonal cross-sectional shape. The shank also has a head portion configured to engage the fastener. The head portion is composed of powdered metal (PM) steel having carbide particles distributed uniformly throughout the head portion.
TORQUE LIMITER
A torque limiter for a surgical screwdriver that includes an outer sleeve (1); a snap sleeve (3), which is arranged in and rotates with the outer sleeve; a rolling element cage (6), which is arranged in the snap sleeve; an inner sleeve (10), which is arranged in the rolling element cage; and a force-transmitting shaft (11), which is received in and rotates with the inner sleeve. The inner wall of the outer sleeve is provided with recesses (8) that extend parallel to a rotational axis of the force-transmitting shaft. The rolling element cage is provided with a plurality of rolling element receiving areas (5), each of which holds a rolling element (4), and with a number of noses (7), which engage into the recesses. The inner sleeve is provided with a plurality of notches (9), which extend in a V-shape parallel to the axis and which receive the rolling elements.
