  • Patent number: 10882162
    Abstract: A screw bit body which allows for efficient torque force application onto a socket fastener from a variety of angles. The screw bit body includes a plurality of laterally-bracing sidewalls, a first base, and a second base. The laterally-bracing sidewalls are radially distributed about a rotation axis of the screw bit body with each further including a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, a concave surface, a convex surface, and an engagement cavity. The convex surface is adjacent to the first base and the concave surface is adjacent to the second base to create a ball-like shape. The engagement cavity creates a gripping point to prevent slippage in between the screw bit body and the socket fastener. The engagement cavity traverses normal and into the concave surface and the convex surface. Additionally, the engagement cavity traverses into the screw bit body from the first base to the second base.

The laterally-bracing sidewalls are radially distributed about a rotation axis of the screw bit body with each further including a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, a bracing surface, and an engagement cavity. The engagement cavity creates an additional gripping point to prevent slippage in between the screw bit body and the socket fastener. The engagement cavity traverses normal and into the bracing surface. Additionally, the engagement cavity traverses into the screw bit body from the first base to the second base. The engagement cavity is specifically positioned offset from the first lateral edge by a first distance.

  • Patent number: 9687968
    Abstract: A wrench-type tool that utilizes a plurality of engagement features to efficiently transfer torque to a fastener in order to rotate said fastener. The wrench-type tool includes a wrench-type torque-tool body. The wrench-type torque-tool body is the physical structure used to apply a torque force onto the fastener and includes a plurality of internal sidewalls and a plurality of engagement teeth. The plurality of internal sidewalls is radially distributed about a pivot axis of the wrench-type torque-tool body. Each of the plurality of engagement teeth is adjacently connected to a corresponding sidewall from the plurality of internals sidewalls in order to directly engage the sidewalls of the fastener. To increase the total contact surface with the fastener, a prismatic altitude for each of the plurality of engagement teeth is aligned parallel to the pivot axis. Furthermore, each of the plurality of engagement teeth is oriented towards the pivot axis.
