A portable device is disclosed for drilling a hole through a plate and into a wooden tie and/or inserting a lag screw into the hole in the plate and into the wooden tie. The portable device may include a handle and a removable drill with a rechargeable battery that provides power to the portable device. In various embodiments, the portable device may include a gear ratio and gear reduction system configured to allow a user to change speed and torque settings for the portable device independent from the battery-powered drill. In some embodiments, the portable device may include a quick connect/disconnect component configured to enable the portable device to be used as a tie drill device or a lag screw inserter device by interchangeably connecting either a drill bit or a lag screw socket to the portable device.

A leveling assembly including a levelling bit with a first portion that engages a screw head of a levelling screw in a base of a gondola assembly and a second portion that countersinks around a portion of the leveling screw. The levelling assembly further includes an alignment measuring system configured to measure alignment of slots in the gondola assembly. The alignment measuring system includes a first bar attached to a retractable cord and a second bar movable along the cord. The first bar is shaped for insertion into a first slot of a first upright and the second bar is shaped for insertion into a second slot of a second upright. The cord is shaped to extend along a face of a third upright between the first and second upright when the first bar is inserted into the first slot and the second bar is inserted into the second slot.

A door stop installation device. The door stop installation device may include a main body portion; a door stop receiving portion integrated into the main body portion; an extension portion extending from a proximal end of the main body portion; an opening in a distal end of the main body portion; and wherein, the door stop receiving portion may be configured to receive at least one type of a door stop.

An apparatus for providing an efficient platform for installing screws can include a cart with wheels and a screw assembly mounted to the cart. The screw assembly can include a screwing device that rotates a drive shaft that engages a screw, a screw guide tube and a screw feeding tube connected to the screw guide tube. In another embodiment, an assembly is provided. The assembly may include a bracket for coupling to a moveable platform, a screwing device coupled to the bracket and that rotates a drive shaft that engages a screw, a screw guide tube and a screw feed tube connected to the screw guide tube.

A torque screwdriver device is provided, including: a housing, including a barrel and a cover coveringly connected with the barrel; an input shaft portion, rotatably assembled with the barrel; an output shaft portion, rotatably assembled with the barrel and including a socket mechanism; a torque clutch mechanism, including a first engaging portion disposed on the input shaft portion and a second engaging portion disposed on the output shaft portion, an elastic preload member biasing one of the first and second engaging portions, and a first bearing mechanism, the first bearing mechanism including a stop member abutted against the housing, a support member and at least one low friction member disposed between the stop member and the support member, at least one of the stop member and the support member being movable relative to the at least one low friction member.

A door stop installation device. The door stop installation device may include a main body portion; a door stop receiving portion integrated into the main body portion; an extension portion extending from a proximal end of the main body portion; an opening in a distal end of the main body portion; and wherein, the door stop receiving portion may be configured to receive at least one type of a door stop.

A machine for making screwdriver bit sockets includes a feeing unit and a rotary unit located beside the feeding unit. The rotary unit includes a feeding area, a put-in area, a pressing area and a ready area. The rotary unit includes a disk rotatably connected to a base. Multiple holding units are connected to the disk and moved to one of the feeding area, the put-in area, the pressing area and the ready area when the disk rotates. A feeding arm is located beside the pick-up area and the feeding area to move the sockets from the pick-up area to the holding units. A pressing unit located above the pressing area to press a screwdriver to a socket. A pick-up arm picks up the sockets from the holding units. A control unit electrically controls the rotary unit, the feeding arm, the pressing unit and the pick-up arm.

The present invention relates to the field of combination rotary tools, more in particular in the combination of screwdrivers and drills. In particular, the invention relates to a sleeve member having a hollow portion adapted to embrace a drill, and comprising a bolt- or screw-fitting unit. More in particular, in the context of the present invention said sleeve member is provided with a built-in mechanism for torque limitation.

A universal tool which can be a screwdriver, wrench, pliers, or any other tool. The tool can operate on an object (e.g., a screw, bolt, etc.) of any shape because of a set of pins that can mold to match a shape of the object. For example, a same universal screwdriver has pegs which mold themselves to match a shape of a slotted screw head or mold themselves to match a shape of a philips screw head. A user of the universal screwdriver can then turn such screw by turning the universal screwdriver in a standard fashion. When the universal screwdriver is removed from the object, then the pegs automatically revert themselves to a default position so a different shaped screw head can then be operated on.
