Abstract: A system and method for preventing a hang up after initiation of a watch dog time out in a computer system. A start-up routine is run via a basic input output system (BIOS). The routine applies settings for hardware components. It is determined if a watch dog timer triggered a restart from timing out when the start-up routine ran previously. The system checks a database storing settings for each of the plurality of hardware components for a proper setting for the hardware components if the watch dog timer triggered the restart. The system applies the settings from the database for the hardware components to avoid another hang up.

Abstract: A toolbox is provided for receiving tool bits each with an annular groove. The toolbox includes a box and a holder for pivotal installment in the box. The holder includes holes defined therein and hooks each located in one of the holes. Each of the holes is for receiving one of the tool bits. Each of the hooks includes an enlarged end for insertion in the annular groove of one of the tool bits.

Abstract: An extension apparatus is provided for connecting a tool with a tool bit. The extension apparatus includes a driving element with a first end for engagement with the tool and a second end for engagement with the tool bit, a telescopic element inserted in the driving element, a magnet attached to the telescopic element and a barrel movably mounted on the driving element for receiving a fastener to be driven via the tool bit.

Abstract: A chuck apparatus includes a socket, a plurality of claws, a plurality of springs and a claw driver. The socket includes a conical portion, a cylindrical portion and a thread formed on an internal face of the cylindrical portion. The claws are put in the conical portion of the socket. Each of the springs is connected and compressed between two of the claws. The claw driver includes a bolt and a thread formed on the bolt for engagement with the thread of the socket so that rotation of the claw driver relative to the socket is transformed to movement, thus pushing the claws toward one another on an internal face of the conical portion of the socket.

Abstract: A wrench comprises a box end having a compartment and a cavity, a ratchet wheel rotatably mounted in the compartment, and a pawl mounted in the cavity for engaging with the ratchet wheel. An inner periphery defining the compartment of the box end allows universal movement of the ratchet wheel. Retaining edges are formed on an outer periphery of the ratchet wheel for engaging with the pawl to thereby prevent disengagement of the ratchet wheel from the compartment of the box end.

Abstract: A screwdriver includes a handle including a seat, a shank having a first end in universal joint with the seat and a second end engaged with a tool bit, and an elastic element for retaining the first end of the shank and the seat together such that the first end of the shank and the seat rotate together when the handle is turned. The first end of the shank is in the form of a ball. The seat includes a pinhole, the ball of the shank includes a pinhole, and a pin is extended through the pinhole of the seat and the pinhole of the shank. An inner periphery of the ball presses against an inner periphery of the seat.

Abstract: A tool holder and tools combination includes a base with a head formed on an end thereof. A fixing seat is pivotally mounted to the head and a blade is forcibly inserted into an engaging groove of the fixing seat. A catch is provided to engage with ratchet teeth of the fixing seat to thereby prevent inadvertent folding of the blade. The catch can be retained in a position allowing free pivotal movement of the blade relative to the base.
