A foreign object removing socket adaptor includes a pusher, an adaptor, an external thread, an internal tread, and a stop. The pusher includes a drive head and a main shaft. The adaptor includes a tool body, a socket attachment body, and a main channel. The drive head and the main shaft are adjacently connected to each other. The external thread is laterally connected around the main shaft. The stop is radially connected around the main shaft, opposite of the drive head. The tool body and the socket attachment body are adjacently connected to each other. The main channel concentrically traverses through the tool body and the socket attachment body. The internal thread is laterally connected within the main channel. The main shaft is threadedly engaged with the main channel through the external thread and the internal thread.

A tool adapter quick-release structure includes an adapter and a locking mechanism. The adapter includes a seat portion and an engagement portion extended forward from the seat portion, and an installation hole formed to penetrate into the seat portion via the engagement portion. The locking mechanism includes a movable sleeve mounted onto the seat portion, an installation pin inserted into the movable sleeve and an elastic member abutted against the installation pin to push the movable sleeve axially, and the movable sleeve allowing a fixation member to penetrate through the seat portion to protrude outward inside the installation hole via push of the elastic member. The seat portion includes a repair hole corresponding to the installation pin and is connected to the installation hole.

A tool bit includes a drive portion configured to be selectively coupled to a tool. The drive portion is composed of a first material. The tool bit includes a working end portion having a shape configured to correspond with a recess of a fastener for the working end portion to engage and drive the fastener. The working end portion includes a first segment and a second segment. The first segment is located between the second segment and the drive portion. The first segment is composed of the first material. The second segment is fixed to the first segment at a connection interface. The second segment is composed of a second material different than the first material.

The present invention discloses a method for manufacturing a screwdriver head, the screwdriver head including a head portion for being inserted into a slot of a screw head and a basal body for supporting the head portion; the manufacturing method including: providing the screwdriver head made of a first metal material; preparing alloying coating; coating the alloying coating on the surface of the head portion of the screwdriver head; conducting laser surface alloying treatment on the surface of the head portion coated with the alloying coating to form an alloyed layer; and conducting low temperature tempering treatment on the screwdriver head after the laser surface alloying treatment. The present invention further discloses a screwdriver head, the surface of the position at which the head portion of the screwdriver head contacts with the slot of the screw head is provided with an alloyed layer formed through the laser surface alloying treatment. The screwdriver head manufactured by the manufacturing method of the present invention has high rigidity and high abrasive resistance in the head portion and high tenacity in other portions, thereby prolonging the service life.

A method for removing a fastener with an extractor tool. The method comprising providing the fastener and the extractor tool, wherein the fastener includes a head portion and the extractor tool includes a drive head, a torque-tool body, an external thread, and a tubular sleeve. The method further comprising driving the torque-tool body of the extractor tool into an engagement recess of the fastener head portion and applying rotational force to the extractor tool to rotate the fastener. The method further comprising rotating the tubular sleeve along the external thread and into contact with the fastener, pressing the external sleeve axially against the fastener to remove the fastener from the extractor tool.

A sequential torque application retention system includes a driver mechanism having a shaft; a center drive coupled to a tip end; an outboard drive coupled to the tip end; a screw including a screw head with a central receiver, the central receiver corresponding to the center drive, the central receiver configured to receive the center drive; a pair of outboard receivers formed in the screw head corresponding to the outboard drive, the pair of outboard receivers configured to receive the outboard drive; wherein the center drive is engaged with the screw head at the central receiver responsive to an initial torque and the outboard drive is engaged with the screw head at the pair of outboard receivers responsive to a subsequent torque; and wherein the outboard receivers are positioned so that they do not engage with the outboard drive responsive to the initial torque.
