  • Publication number: 20090288526
    Abstract: The present invention provides a hand tool with warning effect. A torque sensor, a music player and a circuit device are disposed in a main body of the hand tool. The circuit device includes a processing unit and a warning sound generator. An operation torque detected by the torque sensor is transmitted to the processing unit. In the case that the value of the operation torque is within a set range, the processing unit shuts off the warning sound generator and the music player can play music for a user to listen to. Once the operation torque of the hand tool becomes greater than the set torque value, the processing unit turns on the warning sound generator to emit a warning signal to alert the user.

  • Publication number: 20090288308
    Abstract: A scale of a hand tool includes a first end formed as a head having a fixed jaw integrally extending therefrom and a movable jaw movably mounted in the head. Two opposite surfaces are respectively formed on both sides of the head and each surface has an edge adjacent to the movable jaw. A series of scale lines is formed on each of the two surfaces. Each of the scale lines forms an angle with the edge of the surface and the angle is less than 90°. A scale numeral is respectively disposed near the distal end of each of the scale lines and is perpendicular relative to each of scale lines. An indicator is disposed on the movable jaw for pointing out a corresponding scale numeral of the scale lines. A handle is formed as the second end.
