20220347821 · 2022-11-03 ·

A configurable leverage bit driver includes a first elongate shaft having a first bit receiving socket in an end face of the distal end. A second elongate shaft is dimensioned to couple with the first elongate shaft in a first axially aligned bit driving configuration. At least one aperture is defined in a lateral side of the second elongate shaft and is dimensioned to selective couple with the first elongate shaft to configure the first elongate shaft and the second elongate shaft in a second bit driving configuration with the second elongate shaft oriented as a lever arm aligned in a transverse axis to the longitudinal axis of the first elongate shaft. The second bit driving configuration may be one or more of a T-handle or an offset T-handle bit driver for increased leverage in driving a fastener.

Shaft spring clutch apparatus
11607779 · 2023-03-21 ·

The Shaft Spring Cutch is an apparatus, used to drive fasteners, or the like, that is multi-directional, and non-ratcheting, comprised of two drive members, separated and held in an unengaged position by a return spring, that are axially retained within a guide housing. The first drive member is attached to a handle or input shaft. The second drive member is attached to a drive bit. When in an unengaged position, the handle, or input shaft, can rotate freely in either direction relative to the drive bit. The first and second drive members are engaged by applying axial force sufficient to overcome the return spring force, which locks the handle, or input shaft, and drive bit together. Once engaged, any rotational force applied to the handle, or input shaft, is transferred to the drive bit. Optionally, the apparatus may be locked together for continuous drive bit engagement using a locking mechanism and a fastener can be placed directly on the drive bit, then using a feature of the tool, the fastener can be spun by hand until set.
