20080295652 | DRIVING SURFACE CONFIGURATION FOR HAND TOOLS - A wrench includes a handle and an open-end with two jaws and each jaw has a driving surface. Each driving surface has a contacting area and two yielding areas. The contacting area is located between the two yielding areas and includes a contact portion and two notches. The contact portion is located between the two notches, and two extension areas each are connected between the yielding area and the notch corresponding thereto. A corner is formed at a joint area of the contact portion and an inside of the notch so as to bite a rounded fastener head. The contact portions are matched with straight sides of a normal fastener head. | 12-04-2008 |
20100139461 | Granular Particle Gripping Surface - An improved die insert for gripping oil field tubular members in tubular handling systems such as power tongs, slips, safety clamps and the like. The die insert has a gripping surface which comprises a backing surface adapted to contact the tubular member. The backing surface may be smooth or it may have a series of teeth formed thereon. The backing surface further has a granulated particle coating applied thereto which forms the gripping surface of the present invention. In a preferred embodiment, the gripping surface will include a refractory metal carbide selected from the group consisting of the carbides of silicon, tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, tantalum, niobium, vanadium, titanium, zirconium, and boron. | 06-10-2010 |
20110067533 | Internally Retained Jaw Roller Pin - A power tong jaw comprising a jaw body having upper and lower flange sections with flange apertures formed through the upper and lower flange sections. The power tong jaw will further have a jaw roller including a pin aperture and a roller pin positioned through the pin aperture in the jaw roller and through at least one of the upper or lower jaw flange apertures. The power tong jaw will further include a flexible retaining mechanism (i) positioned between outer surfaces of the upper and lower flange and (ii) engaging the roller pin. | 03-24-2011 |
20130220085 | CLAMPING STRUCTURE FOR A TOOL - A clamping structure for a tool is provided. The clamping structure includes a plurality of grooves and an inner surface. The inner surface includes two inclined planes. Two convex arcs are connected to the inclined planes. Two concave arcs are connected to the inclined planes, and a middle salient connects one of the concave arcs to the other of the concave arcs. Wherein, an angle between a hypothesized extension line of one of the inclined planes and a hypothesized central line of one of the grooves is 40 degrees-50 degrees. Whereby, the clamping structure is easy to grip a damaged bolt or a damaged nut. | 08-29-2013 |
20150075334 | Sprinkler Wrench Protective Cover - A sprinkler wrench for installing a sprinkler includes a base having a tool engaging portion. A sidewall extends from the base and a sprinkler engaging portion extends from the sidewall. The sprinkler engaging portion includes a pair of oppositely facing surfaces defining an outer perimeter and a recess including two opposing flats. A protective boot cover is removably attached to the sprinkler engaging portion and includes flat cover portions covering the two opposing flats. | 03-19-2015 |
20160089769 | Clamping structure for open end wrench - A clamping structure for an open end wrench contains: a body, and the body including a handle, an operation head, and a clamping portion. The clamping portion has a first jaw arranged on a first side thereof, a second jaw formed on a second side thereof, and a V-shaped retaining fringe defined on a rear end thereof. The first jaw has a first plane defined on a front end thereof, two first recesses arranged on a rear end of the first plane and a first front end of the V-shaped retaining fringe, and an arcuate projection defined between the two first recesses. The second jaw has a second plane defined on a front end thereof, an abutting face arranged between a rear end thereof and a second front end of the V-shaped retaining fringe, and an arcuately concaved section formed between the second plane and the abutting face. | 03-31-2016 |
