Multifunctional Vehicle Tool
Provided is a removable safety-locking device or safety clip for use with multifunctional tools in a car functioning as a cigarette lighter socket adapter, safety hammer and cutter. The safety-locking device has a flexible clip body that engages with the multifunctional tool to prevent accidental firing of the safety hammer or accidental injury or cutting by the cutter or blade. The flexible clip body has a substantially semicircular downwardly depending pair of arms and a knife-block formed at and extending from an apex of the pair of arms.
HYDRAULIC UNIT FOR HYDRAULIC RESCUE TOOLS, AND RESCUE TOOL EQUIPPED THEREWITH
A portable, battery-powered hydraulic unit for hydraulic rescue tools, in particular for spreading or cutting tools, as well as a rescue tool equipped therewith, are disclosed. The hydraulic unit includes at least one hydraulic pump, a hydraulic tank, a compensation device for hydraulic fluid, a manually operated hydraulic control valve, an electromechanical interface for on-demand coupling and decoupling of at least one battery pack, a mechanical-hydraulic interface for connecting a hydraulic tool, and an electric motor operable by the electrical energy of the battery pack for driving the hydraulic pump. The electric motor is formed by a disc-shaped motor whose axial length extending in parallel to the longitudinal axis of its output shaft is shorter than its outer diameter.
PORTABLE ELECTRIC RESCUE TOOL
A portable electric rescue tool, such as spreader and cutter tool, that allows for manual or remote operation, and operates on a DC power source, which may be an external power source and/or an onboard rechargeable battery. For example, the tool includes a battery cradle or battery attachment portion adapted to removably receive a rechargeable battery pack and electrically couple the battery pack to the tool. The tool also includes a power adapter that is adapted to be removably coupled to the battery attachment portion instead of the battery pack, and allows the tool to be electrically connected to an external DC power source, such as a vehicle battery or other DC power source.
JOINT FOR CONNECTING AN ATTACHMENT TO A HYDRAULIC RAM
A joint for connecting an attachment to a hydraulic ram comprises a ball and a socket. The socket connected to the base top surface of the attachment and encompassing at least a portion of the ball. The ball may be connected to a stem which may comprise a hole which serves as a connection point between the joint and an end of a hydraulic ram.
Hammer action pike pole
The present invention discloses a multi-purpose pike pole firefighting tool. The pike pole comprises a blade, a square shaft, an elongated handle member, a handle and an elongated tubular member. The blade of the pike pole is welded to the square shaft. The square shaft is disposed with in the elongated handle member and configured to move up and down within the elongated handle member. One end of the elongated tubular member is coupled to the elongated handle member by threading assembly via a connection sleeve and another end is coupled to one side of a receiver or cap and the handle is fastened to another side of the receiver. The pike pole uses a manually driven by a piston action or a hammer action to assist a user to remove wood shiplaps/walls of the fired structures for checking fire extension by opening walls and ceilings during firefighting operations.
Power door opener
A power door opener including an actuator having a housing with an electrically powered actuator shaft that can be extended from a closed to an extended position. In one embodiment, a movable push plate is affixed to the actuator shaft and a fixed push plate is fixed in its position with respect to the housing. In the closed position of the actuator shaft, the fixed and movable push plates are aligned to form a combined edge for insertion into the space between a door and door jamb. The actuator shaft extends to move the movable push plate apart from the fixed push plate to spread the space and release the door from the door jamb. Alternatively, a double ended power door opener is located between opposite door jambs and the extending of the actuator shaft forces the door jambs apart to release the door from the door jamb to force open the door.
Impact Tools
An impact tool includes a core and a plurality of projections. The core is formed of a first material that has a first specific gravity and each projection is formed of a second material that has a second specific gravity. The plurality of projections is configured on the core such that at least two projections intersect a first hypothetical plane disposed on the first side of the core and at least two projections intersect a second hypothetical plane disposed on the second side of the core and that is opposably facing the first side. Each of the first and second hypothetical planes is disposed a distance from the central lengthwise axis of the core that is greater than the radius of the core and less than the sum of the radius of the core and the length of a projection.

Device and method for breaching outward opening and reinforced doors
A door breach device can include: an elongate shaft having a first end and an opposite second end; a pivot mechanism at the first end of the shaft; a spearhead rotatably coupled with the pivot mechanism and having a tip on a tip-side of the pivot mechanism and having a shaft cavity on a shaft-side, where the shaft cavity is adapted to receive the shaft therein; a restraint slidably received on the shaft-side of the spearhead and on the shaft; a handle protruding from the shaft; and a hitch at the second end of the shaft. A method of breaching a door can include: forcing the spearhead through a door until the restraint releases the spearhead and the spearhead rotates by the pivot mechanism so as to form an angle with the shaft; and pulling the spearhead against the door until the door is breached.
HANDHELD FLASHLIGHT
A handheld flashlight includes a hollow cylinder having a first end and a second end, and a rechargeable battery therein. The handheld flashlight further includes a lamp head with a light source, a window breaker, a charging port and a discharging port, selectively connected to an external power source or an external load; a connection port, selectively connected to positive and negative terminals of a vehicle battery through external cables; and a management circuit, selectively applying power from the battery to one or more of the light source, the discharging port, and the connection, and selectively charging the battery from the external power source through the charging port; wherein the handheld flashlight is of such compact size and low weight as to be suitable for single-handed portable operation by a user.
