Abstract: A roller clutch mechanism of a reversible ratchet tool is configured to include a biasing and reversing mechanism for biasing rollers in the roller clutch mechanism. A cage member of the roller clutch mechanism locates rollers in either a clockwise or counterclockwise position based on a selective position of the reverser mechanism. The reverser mechanism applies a constant bias to the cage member so that the rollers are constantly biased and quickly engage between the ratchet body and the drive head. The constant bias applied to the cage member reduces the ratcheting angle for improved performance of the reversible ratchet tool.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for synchronously moving first and second fitting or removal tools (300, 400) of a tire fitting or removing apparatus. When an operator moves the first fitting or removal tool (300) in a substantially radial direction with respect to a longitudinal axis (L) of a post (210) supporting the first and second fitting or removal tools (300, 400), a synchronization unit receives first and second input signals of first and second sensors (320, 420) coupled to the first and second fitting or removal tools (300, 400) and indicating a radial movement or position of the tools (300, 400). The synchronization unit generates, based on a comparison of the first and second input signals, an output signal causing an actuator (450) to move the second fitting or removal tool (400) synchronous to the first fitting or removal tool (300) in said substantially radial direction.
