  • Publication number: 20250002314
    Abstract: A dual-headed pry tool with rotatable head includes a first tool component provided with a first tool head and a first pivot connection, and a second tool component provided with a second tool head and a second pivot connection. The second pivot connection is pivotally connected to the first pivot connection. The second tool component is rotatable relative to the first tool component about a pivot axis which extends along a longitudinal direction of the first tool component. Each of the first and the second tool heads has an orientation with respect to the pivot axis, and a relative angle between the orientations of the first and the second tool heads changes as the second tool component rotates relative to the first tool component.

  • Patent number: 12059797
    Abstract: A tool with a segmented tool handle includes a first tube, a second tube and a limiting seat. The first tube has a first inner hole and a first fastening hole. The second tube has one end inserted into the first inner hole, a second inner hole and a second fastening hole. The limiting seat is disposed in the second inner hole and connected with a fastener. An end of the fastener is threadedly connected to the limiting seat and the other end of the fastener has a conical abutting portion. The abutting portion abuts against an inner periphery of first fastening hole when the fastener is in a fastened position. The abutting portion detaches from the first fastening hole when the fastener is in a unfastened position.

  • Patent number: 11491627
    Abstract: A hammer tool includes a head and a handle tightly coupled to the head. The head defines a through hole and a hole connected to the through hole. The hole extends transversely to the through hole. The through hole is of a first width and the hole is of a width greater than the first width. The handle includes a connecting end inserted through the through hole. The connecting end is extruded after inserting through the through hole to include at least one positioning protrusion protruding into the hole. The connecting end is of a second width at where the at least one positioning protrusion is disposed. The second width is greater than the first width.

  • Patent number: 11472015
    Abstract: A pry tool includes a body having a base with a through-hole extending along a first axis and a through-slot extending perpendicularly to the first axis. The base has an arcuate bottom face defining a contact point for contacting with a working plan. A second axis intersects with the first axis at an intersection and passes through the contact point. A third axis intersects with the second axis at the center of curvature of the arcuate bottom face. An angle between the second and third axes is 5°-10°. A shank extends from the base along a fourth axis intersecting with the first axis at the intersection. An angle between the second and fourth axes is 15°-25°. A claw member is coupled to the through-slot. A fixing member is securely mounted in the through-hole and abuts against the claw member.
