Adjustable Socket
20180229348 · 2018-08-16 ·

An adjustable socket including a housing designed on a longitudinal axis, with a series of grooves extending longitudinally along the interior wall. A disc with drive channels intruding obliquely off-center from the perimeter is locked into position within the housing. Jaw members with drive rods are mounted in the disc drive channels, free to move laterally along fixed paths. An axially rotatable drive core with a drive surface is positioned within the housing, engaging the drive rod of each jaw. Rotation of the drive core forces the jaws to travel inwardly along the disc drive channels as dictated by the drive elements of the drive surface, to be forced against a fastener within the jaws. A locking mechanism holds the jaws in position on the fastener. Release of the locking mechanism allows rotation of the drive core in the opposite direction to release the fastener.

ADJUSTABLE GRIPPING TOOL
20180043515 · 2018-02-15 ·

An adjustable gripping tool including an adjustable opening to grip and impart work or a rotational force on work pieces (e.g., nuts and bolts) of various sizes is provided. The gripping tool of the present disclosure includes a ratcheting configuration and an adjusting configuration and can change between each configuration. While in the adjusting configuration, an adjusting bolt may be rotated to cause a plurality of jaws or gripping members to converge toward each other or diverge away from each other to adjust the diameter of the opening of the gripping tool. In this way, the plurality of jaws may converge onto work pieces of various sizes to grip the work pieces securely in the opening. The gripping tool may then be changed to the ratcheting configuration. In the ratcheting configuration, a handle of the gripping tool may be gripped and rotated to impart work on the work piece.
