    Patent number: 6591716
    Abstract: A tool for removing overhead mounted smoke and heat detectors by an operator standing on the ground. The tool has a tool head supported on an extension handle for elevating the tool head into proximity to the detector unit. A number of grip elements on the tool head capture and rotate the removable head of the detector unit. The grip elements can be rearranged on the tool head into various configurations adapted to fit the shapes and sizes of different detector units, thereby providing a universal detector removal tool.
