A socket adapter for limiting torque delivered from a tool to a socket piece. The socket adapter includes a female receiver that is coupleable to and driven by the tool, and a male drive that is coupled to and driven by the female receiver for transferring torque to the socket piece. The socket adapter further includes a clutch mechanism having a first clutch surface, a second clutch surface that engages the first clutch surface, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting a clamping force between the first clutch surface and the second clutch surface. The second clutch surface slides relative to the first clutch surface when a reaction torque exerted on the clutch mechanism exceeds a predetermined torque limit.

A bendable torque wrench includes: a shank; a tubular body whose front end is angularly displaceable with respect to the shank about an axis defined by a first pivotal connection end of the shank; an abutting block located on one side of the tubular body, a the front end of the abutting block has a convexly curved abutting surface; and a detent member whose front end is pivotally connected to a second pivotal connection end of the shank and whose rear end forms a convexly curved contact surface in elastic contact with the curved abutting surface of the abutting block. The torque wrench bends, or collapses, rapidly when the torque applied to the torque wrench reaches a preset torque value.

Torque wrench capable of maintaining accuracy of torque value
11338417 · 2022-05-24 · ·

The invention provides a torque wrench capable of maintaining accuracy of torque value, comprising a tube; and a rod, a trip mechanism, an elastic element, and an adjustment mechanism installed on the tube. The adjustment mechanism has a handle and a moving member, when the handle is rotated, the moving member can be driven to displace along a longitudinal direction of the tube, so as to change an elastic force exerted by the elastic element to the trip mechanism; an adjustment rod is threadedly connected into the moving member, rotating the adjustment rod is capable of displacing the adjustment rod relative to the moving member, so that a front end of the adjustment rod protrudes from the moving member and exerts pressure on the elastic element. Thereby, the torque wrench can be restored to a correct torque value by simply rotating the adjustment rod.

SOUND PRODUCING DEVICE AND HAND TOOL USING THE SAME

A sound producing device includes a sound wheel seat, a sound wheel, and a spring leaf. The sound wheel is rotatably disposed in the sound wheel seat and has a plurality of contacting teeth formed on an outer periphery thereof The spring leaf is mounted in the sound wheel seat and has a body portion and a contacting portion extending from the body portion and disposed between any two of the contacting teeth. The contacting portion is plucked by the contacting teeth to produce a sound when the sound wheel rotates relative to the sound wheel seat.

HYBRID ELECTROMECHANICAL TORQUE WRENCH

A torque wrench having post-torque rotation setting and measurement function, optionally including auto transition from torque to angle rotation, which may operation with and without batteries, including low profile design, improved visual, audio and haptic feedback, a recesses pawl seat for improved accuracy and longevity and improved handle rotation for torque setting and spring unwinding by virtue of improved torque setting nut design.

Torque Wrench Which Can Be Used As a Ratchet
20220143793 · 2022-05-12 ·

A screw driving tool including a torque output element which defines an axis and is mounted in a housing, a torque transmission section with a plurality of depressions, and a torque transmission element, which is pretensioned by the force of a force accumulator and engages into at least one of the depressions, for coupling the torque transmission section to the housing so as to transmit a torque, the torque-transmitting coupling being released when the torque transmission element leaves the depression in an edge-controlled manner against the force of the force accumulator, which can be adjusted by an adjustment device, when a limit torque is exceeded. In order to develop the tool in an advantageous manner in terms of application, a switchover element is proposed which can be moved from a release position into a blocking position and which allows the torque transmission element to leave the depression in the release position but blocks the torque transmission element in the blocking position.

TORQUE WRENCH
20220143794 · 2022-05-12 ·

A torque wrench has a lock device, which includes a locking sleeve, a restoring elastic member, a clamping member, a locking hole, a locking member, and a positioning assembly. The locking sleeve is provided with an accommodating recess, an abutting portion, and a positioning recess. When the lock device is in a lock position, the locking member is pushed by the abutting portion and pressed against a hollow shank to restrict a handle from rotating relative to the hollow shank. When the lock device is in an unlock position, the locking member is detached from the abutting portion, so that the handle is rotatable relative to the hollow shank.

TORQUE WRENCH WITH DIGITAL DISPLAY FOR EASY TORQUE ADJUSTMENT
20230256574 · 2023-08-17 ·

The present invention provides a torque wrench with digital display for easy torque adjustment, including a main body, a wrenching member, a trigger mechanism, a torque adjustment device, and a torque sensing device. The torque adjustment device includes an elastic member, a moving member, a transmission gear, and a modulating member. The modulating member rotationally drives the transmission gear to rotate, so as to drive the moving member to generate a linear displacement, thereby adjusting the support position of the moving member with respect to the elastic member, achieving an efficient torque value adjustment effect and purpose.

Torque wrench evaluation system and method

A method for evaluating a condition of a torque wrench includes connecting the torque wrench to an adapter, detecting a click point, where a click mechanism of the torque wrench is decoupled from a first position into a second position, and measuring a click torque value at the click point, detecting a peak point and measuring a peak torque value at the peak point, detecting a release point, where the click mechanism is moving back from the second position into the first position, and measuring a release torque value at the release point, determining that the evaluation was performed correctly if the click point, the peak point and the release point were detected.

Warning device for a torque adjustor of a torque wrench
11311989 · 2022-04-26 · ·

A torque wrench includes a handle, a wrench, a clutch, an adjustor, a grip, a scale ring and a locking collar. The wrench includes a lever inserted in and pivotally connected to the handle. The clutch is connected to the lever to stop rotating a workpiece when a maximum value of torque is reached. The adjustor is connected to the clutch and includes a knob operable to adjust the maximum value of torque. The knob is provided with a first color. The grip is connected to the handle. The scale ring is connected to the grip. The locking collar is provided with a second color. The locking collar is movable between a locking position to prevent the knob from rotation relative to the grip and show the first color and an unlocking position to allow the knob to rotate relative to the grip and show the second color.
