| 20090301270 | SINGLE PIECE ROTARY WRENCHING TOOL - A rotary wrenching tool used on polygonal nuts, bolts and screws is disclosed. More particularly, the wrenching tool is a single piece rotary wrenching tool with a uniform interior having no moving parts and consisting of six or twelve inwardly projecting lobes of the same size that enable the wrench or socket to exert pressure on the flats of hexagonal objects away from the corners. This invention further relates to a duplex wrench operable on hexagonal fasteners measured by the metric, inch, or both systems. Within a defined range in one wrench, each wrench secures hexagonal objects measured by both inch and metric systems. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100005933 | Wire nut tool - A tool for installing a wire nut connector onto at least two wires includes an injection molded device having an orifice arranged on a distal face of the device for accepting a wire nut. This wire nut orifice includes a through opening and a plurality of curved regions arranged therein for contacting ridges on an exterior of the wire nuts during installation and removal. Pairs of stepped shoulders are arranged within the wire nut orifice for accepting wings on an exterior of the wire nuts. In a first embodiment, the tool includes a rotating handle. In a second embodiment the device includes a square opening on the proximal face for accepting an end of a ratcheting drive. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100077892 | FORCING TOOL - A forcing tool is provided in which a lobe aperture incorporates opposed lobe pairs having driving flanks. Distal ends of the driving flanks define a spacing consistent with the width of a dowel or tang to be utilized in a twisted-dowel joint. The aperture incorporates location recesses to allow the dowel or tang to pass through the aperture and then through twisting create a lock condition. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100229695 | QUAD WRENCH - A quad wrench has a head including an internal guide, first and second crowns separated by said internal guide, each of said first and second crowns having a plurality of interior faces, and first and second bolt receiving spaces, each bolt receiving space being at least partially defined by an outer surface of said internal guide and some of said plurality of interior faces, and a shank connected to said head. Each bolt receiving space of each crown is configured to correspond to both a first certain size of bolt and a second certain size of bolt such that a bolt of either certain size received in the bolt receiving space can be rotated when force is applied to the shank, and each bolt receiving space of the quad wrench is configured to correspond to two different certain sizes of bolts. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20110247463 | Socket wrench assembly - A socket wrench assembly includes three drive shanks each having a bore and each having a socket member attached to the outer end, and each having a smaller compartment and a greater non-circular chamber formed in the socket member, and the inner end portions of the drive shanks are secured together to form a Y-shaped or T-shaped structure for allowing either of the drive shanks to be driven or rotated by the other drive shanks with a greater driving torque, and the chambers of the socket members include inner diameters different from each other for receiving or engaging with or for driving tool members of different dimensions or sizes. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20120137837 | BOLT-NUT TURNING MULTI SOCKET - The present invention relates to the compact multi socket capable of turning a plurality of bolts or nuts having different diameters by one tool. | 06-07-2012 |
| 20120255399 | Angular oil filter cartridge wrench - An angular, one-piece, box-end wrench specifically designed to access and grip onto the oil filter Dorman filler cap of the newly designed General Motor (GM) combustion engines, more specifically the GM 2.2L and 2.4L ECOTEC 1-4 engines, comprising of a handle grip, a handle shaft and a box-end wrench. The inventive device includes a handle grip with a 90 degree perpendicular bend forming an elongated handle shaft with a second 100 degree bend distally spaced and opposite to the handle grip accommodating a hex box-end body sized to fit and access the above stated GM oil filter cartridges for maintenance and replacement. | 10-11-2012 |
| 20120325058 | Water Softener Filter Wrench System - In general, the invention is a wrench made of a heavy and rust-resistant steel, which is 7-gauge in a preferred embodiment, as well as zinc coated in a primary embodiment, formed to one of the water filter sizes, including but not limited to: SW1, SW2, SW3, SW5-a, 144880 BW-BC, C-shaped (open end) Universal style, S3072, HT-HTF, OW1, OW2, OW6. The handle is at least 1.5 times the head diameter for easy use and the head is fitted with the various water filter sizes. A plastic or rubber cover is used on the handle for grip and for installing directions. | 12-27-2012 |
| 20140182421 | SOCKET SEPARABLE SPANNER - The present invention is composed of a main body, a rotary ring, a fixing member, and a spring plate. The main body includes a sleeve projecting from a top end of a driving hole and including a guide aperture extending through the driving hole. The rotary ring has a bore rotatably coupled to the sleeve to be rotatable between first and second positions. The bore has an inside surface forming a retention chamber having first and second recessed curved faces. The fixing member is movably received in the guide aperture. The spring plate is arranged between the fixing member and the retention chamber and has one side fixed to the sleeve and a curved section formed between two sides thereof. In the first position, the first recessed curved face positions the curved section. In the second position, the second recessed curved face positions the curved section. | 07-03-2014 |
| 20150101459 | CARBON FIBER WRENCH ASSEMBLY WITH INSERT - The disclosure addresses wrenches having a portion thereof including carbon fibers. Example wrenches may have a handle portion comprising the carbon fibers; which in some cases can be formed as a part of a composite laminate structure of at least a portion of the handle. Example wrenches will often include an insert portion for engaging a bolt, nut, or similar structure. In most cases, the insert will be formed of a relatively hardened material, such as a metal, or a metal-containing, material. | 04-16-2015 |
| 20150114186 | SOCKET - A socket is adapted for being disposed in a sleeve hole of a wrench wherein the sleeve hole has a positioning element disposed on an inner wall of the sleeve hole. The socket includes a main body having a driving portion and a connecting portion at two ends. The connecting portion has a polygonal external surface including plural driven faces arranged around an axial direction. A shared edge is formed between every two adjacent driven faces, and at least one shared edge is formed with a notch for receiving the positioning element. The notch has a triangle cross-section and has a steeper first bottom face and a second bottom face which is more remote from the driving portion than the first bottom face. Thus, the socket can be prevented from moving forward and is easier to remove. | 04-30-2015 |
