20090019974 | MANUALLY OPERATED PLIERS WITH FORCE MONITORING - For signalling the force exerted with a manually operated pair of pliers, one arm of the pliers comprises an inner lever and an outer lever, the inner lever carrying a jaw of the pliers and being biased by means of compression springs, with respect to the outer lever which is gripped by the user's hand. The two levers, have opposed contact elements, which contact one another when the actuation force that acts counter the bias of the compression springs, reaches a predetermined value, to actuate a vibrator housed in the arm of the pliers. | 01-22-2009 |
20090126540 | Locking pliers with opposing handle - The present invention is a pair of locking pliers having an opposing handle extending from the upper jaw or lower jaw of the locking pliers, generally parallel to, and roughly the same length and shape as, the first handle. A user can simultaneously place one hand on the first handle and the other hand on the opposing handle so that there is one handle on each side of the workpiece, allowing the user to apply more rotational force to the workpiece. The invention allows the user to apply pressure and torque more evenly to keep unstable work objects from moving, when not securely fixed. When space around the workpiece compromises the user's reach, the opposing handle provides and additional opportunity to rotate the workpiece. A second embodiment of the invention provides an optional, detachable handle extension securely attached to the upper jaw and/or an optional and detachable handle extension that can be securely attached to first handle of the locking pliers. The invention can also be applied to other similar hand tools such as adjustable pliers, wrenches, socket wrenches, pipe wrenches, or other tools. | 05-21-2009 |
20090151522 | Hand grip shell for pliers-type tools - An accessory for pliers-type tools includes a shell that is removably connected with one or both levers of the tool to alter the size of the gripping portion of the tool to conform with the size of the user's hand. Each shell has a generally L-shaped configuration and an outer gripping surface which is arched, preferably in both longitudinal and latitudinal directions, to accommodate the user's hand. In addition, the levers include an opening adjacent to the gripping portion and the shells include a locking mechanism adapted to engage the lever within the opening to connect the shell with the lever. | 06-18-2009 |
20100024610 | ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY PLIERS - An assembly/disassembly pliers including two pivoted pliers bodies is used to assemble or disassemble a heat sink on or from a chip. The heat sink is disposed in a fixing member, and two hooks of the fixing member are buckled with the chip. An actuating handle and an operating board are respectively disposed on each pliers body, and a bump is extended from at least one operating board. The two actuating handles are actuated to drive the two operating boards to open towards opposite directions, such that the bumps push the fixing member and release the hooks, such that the fixing member and the heat sink are installed on or separated from the chip. | 02-04-2010 |
20100050827 | MULTI-FUNCTION TOOL HAVING RETRACTABLE JAWS - A multi-function tool is formed in a compact structure at a smaller size and can bear greater force and has a handle capable of holding more other tools. It has a jaw head consisting of a first jaw, a second jaw, a first handle and a second handle that are hinged on the same axle and turnable thereon. By adopting one axle, the compact structure can be realized. The first handle has lateral sides and a rear end to hold other tools such as knives, scissors, screwdrivers, a can opener and the like. | 03-04-2010 |
20110088521 | GRIP FOR PLIERS - A grip for pliers has a body and a bow. The body has an inner side, an outer side, a handle hole, a curved cushioning hole and a curved cushioning arm. The handle hole is capable of being mounted around a handle of the pliers, is defined in the body and is adjacent to the inner side of the body. The cushioning hole is curved, is defined through the body, is adjacent to the outer side of the body and extends along the handle hole. The cushioning arm is curved and is formed on the outer side of the body. The flexible bow is securely mounted in the cushioning arm and extends along the cushioning arm. | 04-21-2011 |
20140182424 | Ring Handled Device and Method of Manufacturing Same - A device, and a method of making the device, having at least one blank having a handle end and an operative end are described. The device may include a handle end having spaced complementary formations configured to co-unite to form a ring-shaped handle end. The method may include forming spaced complementary formations in the handle end of the blank, and co-uniting the spaced complementary formations to form a ring-shaped handle end in the blank. | 07-03-2014 |
