A screwing/unscrewing tool for screwing/unscrewing a screw or a bolt includes a first part including a lever secured to a screwing/unscrewing bit provided with at least one screwing/unscrewing recess centered on a main axis, a second part including a support arm equipped with a tapped hole and on which the screwing/unscrewing bit is rotatably mounted around the main axis, and an adjustment screw screwed into the tapped hole and having a coupling head configured for a coupling with a screw-gun or a wrench, and extended by a threaded rod having a free end suitable for abutment on the lever in order to apply a pivoting force to it. The screwing/unscrewing tool may be used with a screw or bolt that is difficult to access in a crane mast or crane jib.
TORQUE CAPACITY EXPANDABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TORQUE MULTIPLIER
A torque capacity expandable device and method for a torque multiplier are introduced. The device includes a connection sleeve and a torque multiplier. The connection sleeve, fitted to a torque wrench and the torque multiplier and fastened, has a force-applied end corresponding in dimensions to a force-applying end of the torque wrench and has another end corresponding in dimensions to the force-applied end of the torque multiplier. An integral fastening mechanism is integrally fitted to or formed with each of the two ends of the torque multiplier. Its force-applied end fastening mechanism has the same dimensions as the force-applying end fastening mechanism of connection sleeve. Its force-applying end fastening mechanism has the same dimensions as the force-applied end fastening mechanism of a reaction arm disposed at the force-applying end fastening mechanism of torque multiplier.

Tool for use in places with restricted access
A reaction arm mounting assembly comprises a first part and a second part, the first part being configured for attachment to a power tool and the second part is mounted on the first part. The mounting of the second part on the first part: permits sliding motion between the first and second part along an axis common to the first and second parts in a first sliding region and prevents rotation between the first and second member in the first sliding region; and permits rotation between the first and second members in a second sliding region.
Torque reaction tools and methods for use
An example torque reaction tool includes a first arm having an end with a longitudinally extending cavity, and an opposite end with a first socket drive element disposed perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the cavity. The torque reaction tool further includes a second arm having an end portion slidably disposed within the cavity, and an opposite end with a second socket drive element thereon, oriented in the same direction as the first socket drive element. The torque reaction tool further includes a first fastener, disposed in a first threaded hole in the first arm that extends into the cavity, the first fastener being adjustable to engage the end portion of the second arm to restrict sliding movement of the second arm relative to the first arm.
Portable calibration system
A portable shippable automated calibration system for high torque power tools is disclosed. The system includes a self-contained highly durable and shippable container that may comprise a power source, central processor, visual user interface, mechanical interface for coupling with power tools to be calibrated, communications systems for communicating with a power tool being calibrated and/or with on-site or cloud based data systems. The system may be delivered to sites desiring on-site power tool calibration, tools are calibrated and updated calibration factors are automatically uploaded into the calibrated tool and a calibration certificate is published with the particulars of the calibration completion.
Tool device and reaction bar
A tool device has a deceleration unit, a tip tool, and a reaction bar. The deceleration unit increases a torque that is input to the deceleration unit. The tip tool is rotated when receiving a motive force from the deceleration unit. The reaction bar is fixed to the deceleration unit. An external force can be made to act on the reaction bar to receive a reaction force that is generated during rotation of the tip tool.
APPARATUS, SYSTEMS AND KITS FOR LOOSENING AND RETORQUING HYDRAULIC CYLINDER PISTON-RETAINING NUTS
The present disclosure generally relates to apparatus, systems, and kits of parts for knock-down heavy-duty transportable torque tool assemblies capable of onsite field-servicing of high-pressure heavy-duty hydraulic cylinders used in heavy-duty construction equipment and industrial machinery. The embodiments disclosed herein pertain to assemblies comprising modular knock-down components that may be mounted onto the bed of a field service truck and configured as needed to provide loosening and retorquing of piston-retaining nuts.
Apparatus for tightening threaded fasteners
The present invention relates to an operation parameter regulation unit (50) for use with a bolting system having a plurality of networked electrically powered torque tools (10, 11) and/or drive portions of torque tools (10, 11) for simultaneous tightening of industrial threaded fasteners (40), the operation parameter regulation unit (50) including: a processing unit (53); an output unit (51) connected and/or integrated with the processing unit (53); an input unit (52) connected and/or integrated with the processing unit (53); an activation unit (55) connected and/or integrated with the processing unit (53) for activating operation units of the plurality of networked electrically powered torque tools (10, 11) and/or drive portions of torque tools (10, 11); and a control unit (54) for controlling operation parameters (41) of each of the plurality of networked electrically powered torque tools (10, 11) and/or drive portions of torque tools (10, 11) to maintain a difference between the operation parameters (41) within a predetermined value.
TORQUE WRENCH AS POWER WRENCH
A torque wrench such as a power wrench has a drive motor with an intermediate gearbox connected downstream of the drive motor and with a bolting gearbox connected downstream of the intermediate gearbox as a planetary gearbox with a bolting tool part on the output side, and with a housing with at least one handle in which the drive motor and the intermediate gearbox are arranged in sequence. The drive motor is non-rotatably arranged and fixed in the housing, and the intermediate gearbox is rotatably mounted in the housing and is non-rotatably connected to a ring gear of the planetary gearbox, so that, during a bolting operation, only the reaction forces occurring on the housing as a result of the drive motor have to be supported by an operator, and the reaction forces occurring as a result of the intermediate gearbox are supported by the torque support foot.
