  • Patent number: 6446530
    Abstract: A ratchet wrench comprises a main body provided with a disposing portion and a receiving cell. A wrenching member is provided with a first toothed portion and is pivoted in the disposing portion of the main body. An arresting member is provided with a second toothed portion and is disposed in the receiving cell such that the second toothed portion is engageable with the first toothed portion. The arresting member and the wrenching member are urged by a first resilient member which serves to provide the arresting member with a spring force enabling the wrenching member to be turned unidirectionally. The arresting member and the wrenching member are further urged by a second resilient member which serves to provide the arresting member with a spring force enabling a greater area of the second toothed portion of the arresting member to be meshed with the first toothed portion of the wrenching member.

  • Patent number: 6250184
    Abstract: A hand tool comprises at least one handle, at least one connection member, and at least one blade. The handle is provided with a pivoting portion having a receiving slot and a pivoting hole in which the connection member is located. The connection member is formed of a pin, a spring, a collar and a ring. The pin has a head, a cylindrical portion, a tangential plane, and a tail end. The head presses against the receiving slot. The cylindrical portion and the tangential plane are put through the pivoting hole and fitted into the spring and the collar. The blade has a working portion and a fastening portion which is provided with an open slot and a locating hole and is fastened with the connection member such that the cylindrical portion of the pin of the connection member is releasably located in the locating hole of the fastening portion of the blade, thereby enabling the fastening portion of the blade to disengage the pivoting portion of the handle by pressing the tail end of the pin of the connection member.

  • Patent number: 6098505
    Abstract: An adjustable wrench has a handle and a jaw head extending from one end of the handle. The jaw head is formed of a fixed jaw and a movable jaw. The fixed jaw is composed of a first clamping side, a second clamping side, a third clamping side, and a fourth clamping side. A receiving hole is formed by these four clamping sides and provided with an opening. The movable jaw is axially and linearly displaceable in the receiving hole of the fixed jaw such that the movable jaw is capable of an axial and linear displacement. The movable jaw has a first clamping side and a second clamping. The fixed jaw and the movable jaw form together a jaw mouth having at least three clamping sides to hold securely a hexagonal nut or a bolt having a hexagonal head.

  • Patent number: 6026714
    Abstract: An adjustable wrench is composed of a handle and a clamping member fastened pivotally with the handle and provided with two clamping surfaces forming therebetween an angle of 120 degrees. The clamping member is capable of turning on a pivoting point which is located at the center of the pivoting position of a clamped portion of the handle. The pivoting position has a horizontal width which is 3-3.5 times a distance between a longitudinal line of the pivoting point and a longitudinal line passing the curvature center of an arcuate lower clamping surface of the clamped portion of the handle. The arcuate lower clamping surface has a curvature radius which is 2.5-3.5 times a distance between the two longitudinal lines. The arcuate lower clamping surface has an arc line length corresponding in location to a circle center angle ranging between 70 and 90 degrees.

  • Patent number: 6000303
    Abstract: A pliers is composed of a first long member and a second long member having a middle neck portion which is provided with a long slot. Pivoted to the first long member is a stopping member, which is located in the long slot and provided with a serrated portion engageable with teeth of the long slot. A first spring is fitted over a second support arm which forms an angle with a first support arm. A second spring is fastened at one end thereof with a grip end of the first long member, and at another end thereof with a grip end of the second long member. The first and the second long members are forced by the springs to open up completely in the absence of an external force exerting on the pliers.
