  • Crank handle apparatus with fold-away handle
    Patent number: 8844402
    Abstract: A crank handle apparatus with a fold-away handle and a rotation locking mechanism. The apparatus includes an arm, a fold-away handle attached to a first end of the arm, and a crank wheel attached to a second end of the arm. The fold-away handle in a stored position can be moved to an operating position by un-folding the handle. The handle further includes a ring that can be pulled after un-folding the handle so that an index pin located inside the second end of the arm along a first axis enables rotation of the crank wheel along a second axis. The ring can be pulled to move the index pin along with the fold-away handle to secure the fold-away handle against folding back during operation of the crank handle apparatus.
