[0017] FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention;

[0018] FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention; and

[0019] FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the first tool device of the preferred embodiment of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1, a tool kit of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a case 10, a first tool device 12, and a second tool device 14.

[0021] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the case 10 has a main member 16, a first cover 18, and a second cover 20. The main member 16 is a tubular member having a first end 22 and a second end 24. The first end 22 is an open end, and the second end 24 is a closed end. The main member 16 has a first chamber 26 therein, and the first end 22 is an entrance of the first chamber 26. An outer threaded section 28 is provided on an outer side of the main member 16 adjacent to the second end 24, and an inner threaded section 30 on a sidewall of the first chamber 26 adjacent to the first end 22. The first cover 18 has an outer threaded section 32 to be meshed with the inner threaded section 30 of the main member 16, whereby the first cover 18 is connected to the first end 22 of the main member 16 and close the first chamber 26. The second cover 20 is a barrel-like member, having a second chamber 34 therein. The second cover 20 has an inner section 36 on a sidewall of the second chamber 34 adjacent to an open end of the chamber to be meshed with the outer threaded section 28 of the main member 16, whereby the second cover 20 is connected to the second end 24 of the main member 16 and close the second chamber 34.

[0022] The first tool device 12 is received in the first chamber 26 of the case 10. As shown in FIG. 4, the first tool device 12 includes a base 38, a wrench 40, and six bits 42 in the present preferred embodiment. The base 38 had a post 44 at a center and six slots 46 around the post 44. The post 44 is made of iron, which is attracted by magnet. The wrench 40 is a reversible ratchet wrench, having a driving head 48 and a handle 50. The driving head 48 is connected to an end of the handle 50, and the handle 50 is provided with a recess 52 on an end opposite to the driving head 48. A magnet 53 is mounted in the recess 52. Each of the bits 42 has a connecting portion 54 and a driving portion 56. The connecting portions 54 of the bits 42 are the same to be detachably connected to the driving head 48 of the wrench 40, and the driving portions 56 are different for working for different purposes. The wrench 40 is connected to the base 38 with an engagement of the recess 52 and the post 44. The magnet 53 attracts the post 44 to firmly connect the wrench 40 to the base 38. The bits 42 are connected to the base 38 by inserting the connecting portions 54 of the bits 42 into the slots 46 in interference fit respectively. User may fit the bit 42 into the recess 52 of the wrench 40 to make the magnet 53 attract the bit 42, which is helpful to removal of the bit 42 from the slot 46 of the base 38.

[0023] The second tool device 14 is received in the second chamber 34 of the case 10. In the present preferred embodiment, the second tool device 14 includes a needle tool 58 which is used to insert a plug into a hole of a tubeless tire (no shown) for repairing punctures in the tubeless tire. The needle tool 58 has an end connected to the second end 24 of the main member 16 of the case 10. As a result, when the second cover 20 is removed to expose the needle tool 58, the main member 16 becomes a handle of the needle tool 58 to be held by user.

[0024] There still are spaces in the first and the second chambers 26, 34 when the first and the second tool device are received therein, and some accessories or tools may be stored in the first and the second chambers 26, 34. In the present preferred embodiment, plugs, which are used to be inserted into a hole of a tubeless tire for repairing punctures in the tubeless tire, are received in the second chamber 34.

[0025] In conclusion, the tool kit of the present invention provides different kinds of the tool devices to be received in the chambers of the case, which may help the cyclist to fix his/her bicycle. In addition, the bar-like case is easy to be carried by the cyclist or fastened on the bicycle.

[0026] It must be pointed out that the embodiments described above are only some preferred embodiments of the present invention. All equivalent structures which employ the concepts disclosed in this specification and the appended claims should fall within the scope of the present invention.
