  • Patent number: 11260505
    Abstract: A ratcheting driver comprises a driving mechanism combined between a handle and a working end for translating rotary motion from the handle to the working end. A switch engages the driving mechanism to switch the rotational direction of the working end between clockwise rotation and counter-clockwise rotation with an optional locked position that locks the working end. Two pairs of cooperating pawls are provided that are selectively engaged by the switch with one pawl in each of the two pairs of cooperating pawls selectively engaging one of a first ratchet gear and a second ratchet gear. Each pawl in the pair of cooperating pawls are positioned axially apart from each other in alignment with one of the first ratchet gear and the second ratchet gear.
