Abstract: A floor jack locking assembly is presented. The locking assembly may include a locking pin used to mechanically lock out the jack at a specified lift height. The locking assembly may avoid the hydraulic lift cylinder being the only stabilizing component of the jack when supporting a significant load. The locking pin may be coupled to lifting link arms, avoiding the need to have the locking pin inserted into or through the lifting arm of the jack.

Abstract: The present invention relates broadly to a floor jack and a multi-component trunnion assembly that transfers motion of a power unit to the lifting arm of the jack. The end block may include one or more trunnions that are coupled to the block. The trunnions may engage and be coupled to one or more connection plates coupled to the lifting arm of the jack. A hydraulic power unit, including at least one piston may be coupled to the trunnion block for lifting the lifting arm of the jack.

Abstract: A hydraulic power unit for a floor jack that includes an internally-adjustable relief valve that is inaccessible to an operator without removing the power unit from the jack assembly and disassembling the power unit. By placing the relief valve inside of the hydraulic assembly, hidden from operators, the relief valve is less likely to be accidently adjusted when using or servicing the jack.

Abstract: A hydraulic power unit for a floor jack that includes a secondary safety check valve (SSCV) to provide additional leakdown protection, backing up the main check valve. The SSCV acts as a safety measure to prevent the unit from losing load bearing capabilities if the main check valve fails. In addition, the SSCV acts as a means to prevent debris from entering the main check valve, thereby reducing the chance for failure due to an obstruction.

Abstract: A compact head body hammer that requires less clearance to operate as compared to conventional hammers. The hammer does not include a secondary tool located on the rear of the hammer, for example, a pry or a wedge. In omitting these secondary tools, the hammer provides more clearance and allows greater pull back prior to the user striking an object. Further, the hammer head can weigh substantially the same as a conventional hammer head, for example, seven ounces, so that the striking power of the hammer is not compromised by the compact nature of the hammer. The centerline of the hammer head base can be offset with respect to a centerline of the hammer handle, which also provides less mass at the rear portion of the hammer head and allows greater pull back prior to striking the object.

Abstract: Disclosed is a bearing race and seal driving tool with a grip that is molded to receive a user's hand while having a cap that can be struck by a hammer during use. The handle can include a ball detent and the driver can include a groove or other indent that detainably engages with the ball for quick assembly. The tool therefore provides for quick assembly with fewer components than prior art tools and further allows the user to grip the tool while including a corresponding cap that can be struck to apply the seal or bearing race during use.

Abstract: Handles and other accessories for a remote or extension wrench that assists the user better control and maneuver the remote wrench relative to a work piece. For example, the remote wrench housing can include a handle that is coupled to the remote wrench. The handle can also be rotatable relative to the remote wrench and positionable at a desired angle of rotation for improved maneuverability.
