  • Patent number: 8763498
    Abstract: A ratchet wrench including a holding portion, a neck portion, a switching member, a controlling rod, a blocking member, and a ratchet driving head is disclosed. The neck portion which is located at the top end of the holding portion has a cavity. The cavity has a first recess and an opening. The first recess is used for receiving a compressible elastic member and a ball. The opening is used for receiving and tightly fitting with a bendable elastic member. The switching member has a second recess to hold the bottom of the bendable elastic member, and the switching member has two adjacent arc grooves at its bottom. The controlling rod links the switching member to shift the switching member in the cavity to allow the ball to be pressed into one of the arc grooves.

  • Publication number: 20140174773
    Abstract: An electronic torque tool includes a main body; at least one display unit disposed on the main body for displaying torque values, and several pushbuttons disposed on the main body for a user to set values to the torque tool. The electronic torque tool has resettable torque warning values, which are discontinuous values with an interval therebetween. Thanks to the interval between the discontinuous resettable torque warning values, the torque warning value of the torque tool is lower than the required tightening force. In this case, it can be avoided that a threaded member is over-tightened.
