  • Publication number: 20070234856
    Abstract: A magnetic connecting tube for a screwdriver head including a main body, a push sleeve, an engaging piece, a compression ball, a blocking ring, a spring element, a polygonal bar, an stationary magnet, and a mobile magnet. A slide sleeve is mounted on the mobile magnet that is synchronically movable with the slide sleeve. The slide sleeve is disposed at a position corresponding to that of the compression ball. Moreover, the slide sleeve includes an axial guide slot with a deep top and a shallow bottom. In this way, the movement of the mobile magnet can be restricted by the interaction of the compression ball and the spring element. Meanwhile, it is easy to complete the initial process of the insertion of the polygonal screwdriver bit without moving the push sleeve. Accordingly, a simple operation can be ensured.
