Abstract: A tool holder insert for use with storage containers is provided including a base portion and a sleeve. The base portion has a first end and a second end. The first end includes an interlock feature adapted to be a non-rotatably coupled to the storage container. The sleeve is rotatably coupled to the base between the first and second ends. A specialized tool accessory is supported within the storage container by the tool holder insert.

Abstract: A driving tool assembly includes a drive component adapted to be connected to a power tool or hand tool. A driven component is pivotally connected to the drive component and is adapted to receive a tool bit, drill bit, or otherwise provide a nut driver or socket wrench. A locking mechanism is provided for lockingly engaging the driven component to be in co-axial alignment with the drive component. The drive component includes a shaft or a mandrel having a driving shank formed or provided on one end thereof. The driving shank has a non-circular cross-section formed or defined by three or more curved and planar sidewalls. The number of sidewalls preferably includes three, four or six sidewalls, for engaging with a non-circular cavity of the driven component.

Abstract: A rotary tool includes a tool holder, a reversible bit, and an outer rotatable sleeve. The tool holder includes a socket and a shank. The socket includes an opening extending rearwardly from an end thereof. The shank is integral with and extends rearwardly from the socket and includes a non-circular cross-section. The reversible bit includes an inner sleeve, a first reversible bit driver, and a second reversible bit driver. The inner sleeve is disposed within the socket and rotates with the tool holder. One of the first and second bit drivers extends axially out of the socket opening. The outer rotatable sleeve is disposed over at least a portion of the socket and the bit driver extending axially out of the socket opening. The outer rotatable sleeve further includes a magnet in an end proximate the bit driver extending axially out of the socket opening.

Abstract: A “snap-in” bit chuck assembly for a rotary hand or powered tool, includes a body having a hex shank at its rearward end and a retraction collar slidably disposed on the body. The body has a coaxial hex socket formed therein to allow a tool bit to be inserted thereinto. A coil spring biases the retraction collar forwardly and biases a retaining clip toward the bottom of an angular slot formed in the body. The bit is removed by sliding the retraction collar rearwardly, to compress the coil spring and allow the retaining clip to retract back up the slot. The bit is biased out of a locked position by a plunger that ensures that the bit remains disengaged when the retraction collar is released.

Abstract: A tool pouch having a pocket with an opening to receive certain items. The pocket includes a magnetic member near the top of the pocket for holding items received in the pocket. The magnetic member assists in arranging items in the pocket.

Abstract: A large diameter self-feed wood bit is provided including a feed spur having a coarse spur thread of approximately 1.75 millimeters and a 20-degree main cutting edge relief angle. The main cutting edge relief angle complements the coarse self-feed thread pitch for faster, more efficient drilling of large diameter holes in wood.
