DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0014] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, a wrench holder assembly in accordance with the present invention comprises a body 10 and a positioning base 20.

[0015] The body 10 may be a trapezoidal board and has a top surface, two side edges, and two side walls 12. The side walls 12 are formed on and protrude from the two side edges respectively, and each side wall 12 has multiple engaging recesses 122 defined in the side wall 12. Each engaging recess 122 in one of the side walls 12 corresponds to a respective one of the engaging recesses 122 in the other one of the side walls 12 in position. In addition, the body 10 further has a handle 14 formed on an end of the body 10.

[0016] With further reference to FIGS. 4 and 5, the positioning base 20 is mounted on the top surface of the body 10, is located between the side walls 12, and comprises a track base 22 and multiple positioning elements 24. The track base 22 is mounted securely on the top surface of the body 10 by fasteners, such as bolts. In addition, the body 10 may further have two positioning ribs 16 formed on and protruding from the top surface of the body 10 and abutting respectively on two sides of the track base 22 to hold the track base 22 in position.

[0017] The multiple positioning elements 24 are moveably mounted on the track base 22 and are capable of being positioned relative to the track base 22. The amount of the positioning elements 24 corresponds to an amount of the engaging recesses 122 in each side wall 12. Each positioning element 24 comprises a bottom board 242, a positioning board 244, and a pushing arm 246. The bottom board 242 is mounted moveably on the track base 22. The positioning board 244 is curved and is formed on and protrudes from an end of the bottom board 242. In addition, the track base 22 has multiple first engaging portions formed on a top surface of the track base 22. The bottom board 242 of each positioning element 24 has a second engaging portion formed on a bottom of the bottom board 242 and engaged with one of the first engaging portions on the track base 22. With the engagement between the second engaging portion and a corresponding one of the first engaging portions, the positioning element 24 can be securely held on the track base 22 in position. The pushing arm 246 is formed on and protrudes from the bottom board 242 of the positioning element 24.

[0018] With reference to FIGS. 3 to 5, when in use, because the body 10 is trapezoidal in shape, the side walls 12 extend away from each other. Consequently, multiple wrenches 40 in different sizes can be held respectively in corresponding engaging recesses 122 in the side walls 12. The positioning boards 244 of the positioning elements 24 can abut respectively on middles of the wrenches 40. Accordingly, the positioning elements 24 can provide a positioning effect to the wrenches 40, such that the wrenches 40 can be securely held on the body 10 and can be kept from being shaken or detached from the body 10.

[0019] Because the positioning elements 24 are moveably mounted on and positioned relative to the track base 22, the positions of the positioning elements 24 can be adjusted to fit with the wrenches 40 in different sizes. Therefore, the wrench holder assembly in accordance with the present invention is versatile in use. In addition, to move the positioning element 24 relative to the track base 22, the pushing arm 246 can be pushed firstly to disengage the second engaging portion from the corresponding first engaging portion. Thus, the positioning element 24 can be smoothly moved to a desired position, so the adjustment of the positions of the positioning elements 24 is convenient.

[0020] Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
