A push button release mechanism for coupling together two portions of a tool, such as pliers. The push button release mechanism can include a push button and one or more balls pushed in a radially-outward direction by geometry of the push button to pivotally couple the two portions together. The balls are normally pushed outward by an engagement portion. Depressing a push button head axially downward causes the balls to align with a receiving portion, which allows the balls to descend into the interior of the mechanism. The push button release mechanism is also threadably coupled with a threaded opening of one of the portions. The threaded opening can have deformed threads to increase the retention torque required to rotate the push button release mechanism.

A tool comprising an outer body with a first end and a second end, the outer body defining a longitudinal recess therein and having at least two connector link pivot points at the first end thereof, an inner body slidably received within the longitudinal recess of the outer body and having a core head extending out of the first end of the outer body, at least two jaws, each jaw having an inner pivot point and an outer pivot point, wherein the inner pivot point of each jaw pivotally connected to a corresponding core head pivot point on the core head, a connector link for each jaw, each connector link having a first end pivotally connected to the outer pivot point of the jaw and a second end pivotally connected to a corresponding connector link pivot point on the first end of the outer body, and an actuating assembly for moving the inner body relative to the outer body, whereby movement of the core head toward the outer body causes the jaws to move toward each other, and movement of the core head away from the outer body causes the jaws to move away from each other.

The present invention discloses pliers type tool with rotatable jaws where the angle between the jaws and the handles can be easily changed for best adapting the tool for its use. It is comprised of two handles which have circular driving plates on one end and user's grasping area. The jaws are attached to circular plates which are placed between the circular plates of the handles. All circular plates have a hole in the center through which a pivot is inserted. The circular plate of the jaw is coupled to the circular plate of the handle by a pin inserted by a lever. The circular plate attached to the jaw has plurality of annular set of holes, and the circular plate of the handle has just one hole. Thus the jaws can be coupled at different angles to the handled of the tools.

A tool for facilitating movement of an object having a channel may include a pair of device members movably connected to each other to move between an engagement condition in which the device members engage the channel and a disengagement condition in which the device disengage from the channel. The device members may be connected together in a manner such that movement of the handle ends of the device members toward each other results in movement of the engagement ends of the device members away from each other. The tool may include a primary grip structure on each device member and configured to engage a first set of opposite portions of the channel, and a secondary grip structure on each device members and configured to engage a second set opposite portions of the channel.

A welding plier includes a first handle and a second handle joined at a pivot point. A spring is disposed between the first and the second handle and biases the first handle away from the second handle. The welding plier also includes a first jaw that extends from the first handle and a second jaw that extends from the second handle. Interior surfaces of the first and second jaws are configured to come into contact with one another when a force is applied to the first handle and/or the second handle so as to overcome the biasing force provided by the spring. The exterior surface of the first jaw and the second jaw each form a step between eight terminal tip portion and a proximal portion.

A clamping plier facilitating cutting includes two heads and two handles. One of the two heads has a blade in at least one position, and the other one of the two heads has a blunt cut at a corresponding position. The two handles are respectively and integrally connected with the two heads in one-to-one correspondence, and the two heads or the two handles are rotatably connected together, so that the two heads are opened or closed by operating the two handles. When the two heads are closed, a blade of one of the two heads is attached to a plane of the blunt cut of the other one of the two heads to cut the cable. The blade of one of the two heads is easier to fit closely with the plane of the blunt cut of the other one of the two heads.
