  • Patent number: 6684472
    Abstract: A pulling tool (1) of the type used on the end of a shaft (2) to remove a mechanical part (3) that is force-fitted or stuck to the shaft (2). The tool includes a threaded rod (20) and a body (5) to which legs (6) are hinged. A sleeve is designed to be mounted on the threaded rod (20) and to form a bearing member for a member (27) which inhibits rotation of the legs (6) during screwing of the threaded rod. Thus, the sleeve acts as a member for protecting the threaded rod (20) from the rotation-inhibiting member (27).
