  • Patent number: 8333133
    Abstract: A drive system cooperates with other tools, such as the drive mechanism of a socket type ratchet wrench to enable a user to use the wrench for its intended purpose at high speed by pulling an endless belt. The belt is contained within a chamber created by the attachment system in a manner to allow the belt to engage with an outer surface of a pulley. The pulley connected to the drive shaft of the socket type ratchet wrench to cause force to be transferred from the belt to the wrench drive shaft. The system utilized a cover operably coupled to the pulley to contain the belt while minimizing interference with the wrench. The cover contains the belt while also allowing an opposite end of the belt to hang loose and thus be easily accessible by a user.

  • Patent number: 8196494
    Abstract: A drive system cooperating with the drive mechanism of a ratchet wrench enables a user to use the wrench for its intended purpose and also spin the drive at high speed by pulling an endless belt. The belt is contained in a manner which causes structures on the belt to engage with exposed gear teeth of the ratchet wrench or an attachment. The containment structure provides for proper alignment and positioning of the belt to allow for the desired engagement with the drive teeth even after the user releases grip from the belt. The containment structure further allows an opposite end of the belt to hang loose and thus be easily accessible by a user. The drive system can be used on a socket ratchet without exposed teeth by adding gear teeth to a ratchet drive member or socket either permanently, as an added part or as an extension to the socket ratchet or socket.
