Abstract: Pliers with parallel jaws include an upper portion having an upper jaw of upper teeth, a lower jaw portion having a lower jaw of lower teeth. The lower jaw portion includes first and second pivot points. An adjustment portion is non-pivotably coupled to the upper portion and selectively movable relative thereto and includes a first pivot point. A lower handle includes first and second pivot points. A break over link includes first and second pivot points pivotably coupled to the adjustment portion and lower handle's first pivot points, respectively. A two-point link includes first and second pivot points pivotably coupled to the upper portion's and lower jaw portion's first pivot points, respectively. A three-point link includes first and second pivot points pivotably coupled to upper and lower jaw portions' first and second pivot points, respectively, and a third pivot point pivotably coupled to the lower handle's second pivot point.

Abstract: A swiveling driver includes a handle portion and a head portion operatively coupled to the handle portion for selectively pivoting relative thereto. The head portion includes an implement and defines at least one detent. A yoke extends from the handle portion and includes a protrusion for selective engagement with the detent. The yoke is movable between a locked configuration in which the protrusion is received in a detent and a released configuration in which the protrusion is not received in a detent. The head portion may be moved freely when the yoke is at the released configuration for setting the angle of the head portion relative to the handle or be fixed at the locked configuration. When the head portion is fixed, the implement may be operated with either a driver bit or in a ratcheting motion.
