  • Publication number: 20200180127
    Abstract: A setting method for an electronic torque tool is disclosed. The electronic torque tool includes a tool body that stores at least one operation set. The operation set includes at least one adjustable operation parameter of the electronic torque tool. The setting method can be used to adjust the operation parameter in the operation set and includes a setting step and a storing step. The setting step includes entering the operation set and adjusting the operation parameter therein. The storing step includes storing the adjusted operation parameter in the operation set directly after an operator quits the operation set or turns off the electronic torque tool during the setting step. The setting method allows the operation parameter in the operation set to be easily and rapidly set or adjusted, thereby making the electronic torque tool easy to use and operate.

  • Publication number: 20190299377
    Abstract: A torque wrench with torque adjustment mechanism includes a tubular body and a torque adjustment mechanism disposed in the tubular body. The torque adjustment mechanism includes an abutting member, an adjustment member and an adjustment button. The abutting member has a first slope disposed at rear end of the abutting member in contact with a second slope disposed at a front end of the adjustment member. When adjusting the set torque value of the torque wrench, the adjustment button is rotated to drive the adjustment member to displace in a transverse direction of the tubular body. By means of the cooperation between the first and second slopes, the abutting member is displaced in a longitudinal direction of the tubular body to compress or release an elastic member positioned in front of the abutting member.

  • Publication number: 20190160635
    Abstract: A folding torque wrench includes a bar body, a connection rod the front end of which is pivotally connected with the bar body, a tubular body fitted on the connection rod and a torque adjustment mechanism having at least one elastic member and an adjustment member. A threaded section of rear end of the connection rod is screwed in a threaded hole of the adjustment member. The threaded section of the connection rod and the threaded hole of the adjustment member are formed as a first threaded section and a second threaded section. The first threaded section is at least double-start threads. When rotating the adjustment member by one circle, the adjustment member is moved in the longitudinal direction of the connection rod by a travel, which is over two time the pitch of the first threaded section. The torque value of the wrench can be quickly greatly adjusted only by means of rotating the adjustment member by few circles.

  • Publication number: 20190162249
    Abstract: A one-way inertial rotational device includes: a rotary seat; an inertial member pivotally rotatably disposed on the circumference of the rotary seat via a pivot hole, a circumference of the rotary seat and a hole wall of the pivot hole of the inertial member being defined as a first circumferential face and a second circumferential face; and a one-way transmission mechanism having at least one one-way transmission tooth, at least one elastic member and multiple engagement teeth. The engagement teeth are annularly disposed on the second circumferential face. The transmission tooth is displaceably disposed on the first circumferential face. The elastic member keeps the transmission tooth engaged with the engagement teeth. Each engagement tooth has a tooth crest and a tooth height. The width of the tooth crest is larger than the tooth height so that the loss of the rotational energy is reduced to achieve greater rotational torque.

  • Patent number: 10286528
    Abstract: An impact spinning hand tool includes a hollow body, a first lever and a first elastic member. The hollow body includes a first position-limiting structure. The first lever includes a driving end exposed outside the hollow body, a spinning structure and a forcing end contained in the hollow body. The forcing end has a second position-limiting structure that is detachably limited by the first position-limiting structure. The first elastic member is pushed against the forcing end and the first position-limiting structure through two ends thereof. The first lever is located at a first position and presses the first elastic member to store an elastic restoring force when being connected with the hollow body. When the second position-limiting structure is released, the elastic restoring force drives the first lever to move to a second position so as to allow the spinning structure to perform an impact spinning action.
