Orbital hand wrench
An example hand wrench is provided. The hand wrench may include a handle (15) having a handle opening (12), and an orbital member (24) received within the handle opening. The orbital member may be configured to move orbitally about a point axis. The hand ratchet wrench may further include a driver affixed to the orbital member. The driver may be configured to receive a socket that interfaces with a fastener to turn the fastener.
Cabinet leg and adjustment tool
A cabinet leg is provided including a body securable to an underside of a cabinet and a shaft engageable with the body such that rotation of the shaft moves the shaft toward or away from the body. A foot is secured to a lower end of the shaft including a first portion attached to the shaft and a second portion rotatable relative to the first portion. A plurality of openings are provided around the periphery of the foot for receiving a first end of a tool such that teeth on the tool engage with teeth on the first portion. Rotation of the tool causes rotation of the first portion relative to the second portion, thereby rotating the shaft and adjusting the height of the cabinet leg.
Tool adapter quick-release structure
A tool adapter quick-release structure includes an adapter and a locking mechanism. The adapter includes a seat portion and an engagement portion extended forward from the seat portion, and an installation hole formed to penetrate into the seat portion via the engagement portion. The locking mechanism includes a movable sleeve mounted onto the seat portion, an installation pin inserted into the movable sleeve and an elastic member abutted against the installation pin to push the movable sleeve axially, and the movable sleeve allowing a fixation member to penetrate through the seat portion to protrude outward inside the installation hole via push of the elastic member. The seat portion includes a repair hole corresponding to the installation pin and is connected to the installation hole.
Methods and apparatuses for extracting and dislodging fasteners
A method of using a fastener torque-tool body, torque arm, and release bolt to engage a stripped threaded fastener in an object. The method comprising the steps of selecting a torque-tool body suitable for the fastener being removed, engaging the torque-tool body with the fastener, engaging the torque arm with the torque-tool body, applying rotational force to the torque arm to rotate the fastener within the object, engaging the release bolt with the torque-tool body, and applying rotational force to the release bolt to dislodge the fastener from the torque-tool body.
Powered socket wrench assembly
A powered socket wrench assembly includes a power tool that has a back end and a front end. The power tool is elongated along a longitudinal axis extending between the back end and the front end thereby facilitating the power tool to be inserted into a hard to reach area. Additionally, the power tool includes a chuck that is rotated in a first direction or a second direction when the power tool is turned on. A drive unit is insertable into the chuck on the power tool thereby facilitating the power tool to rotate the drive unit when the power tool is turned on. The drive unit includes a socket that is rotatable about an axis oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the power tool when the power tool is turned on.
SCREWDRIVER AND TOOL HOLDER
The present disclosure relates to a powered screwdriver. The powered screwdriver includes a housing, a motor housed in the housing and a tool holder driven by the motor. The tool holder selectively holds both a screwdriver bit and a hex key. The hex key includes a bend such that legs of the hex key are transverse to one another.
Torque reaction tools and methods for use
An example torque reaction tool includes a first arm having an end with a longitudinally extending cavity, and an opposite end with a first socket drive element disposed perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the cavity. The torque reaction tool further includes a second arm having an end portion slidably disposed within the cavity, and an opposite end with a second socket drive element thereon, oriented in the same direction as the first socket drive element. The torque reaction tool further includes a first fastener, disposed in a first threaded hole in the first arm that extends into the cavity, the first fastener being adjustable to engage the end portion of the second arm to restrict sliding movement of the second arm relative to the first arm.
Multi-start threaded impact driving device
A torque transfer assembly for an impact bit holder may include a jacket operably coupled to a driven body having a driven end configured to interface with a bit, and a multi-start thread assembly operably coupling the jacket to a drive body having a drive end configured to interface with a powered driver. The torque transfer assembly may be disposed between the drive body and driven body and may be configured to transfer torque between the drive body and the driven body.
Fastener Retention and Anti-Camout Tool Bit
A tool bit with a surface layer metallurgically bonded on a substrate layer using electrospark deposition (ESD) that allows the tool bit to reduce camout and engage a fastener head for one-handed starting and removal. The surface layer has a rougher finish, compared to conventional tool bits, and therefore better grips engagement surfaces of a mating recess of the fastener during use. The reduction of camout provides greater durability to the tool bit and resists erosion and wear of the engagement surfaces of the fastener.
