  • Patent number: 9360060
    Abstract: A ratchet wrench includes a direction switching device. The direction switching device includes two switching members for controlling the rotational direction of a gear, a resilient unit disposed among a body and the switching members for biasing the switching members away from the gear, and a ring unit disposed rotatably on the body. The ring unit includes a convex portion and a concave portion, and is operable to allow the convex portion and the concave portion to act on the switching members, so that one of the switching members comes into contact with the gear, while the other of the switching members is removed from the gear. When no external force is applied to the ring unit, the switching members are biased by the resilient unit to remove from the gear.

  • Patent number: 9193054
    Abstract: A pneumatic impact tool includes a spindle extending along an X-axis, an output shaft extending along a Z-axis, and a spindle positioning device that includes a bushing and a stop pin. The bushing is threaded in a housing, and has a stop surface and a frustoconical outer surface. The stop surface obstructs the spindle from moving away from the output shaft. The frustoconical outer surface has opposite first and second ends. The first end is nearer to the X-axis and farther away from the Z-axis than the second end. The stop pin is disposed removably in the housing, and has an engaging surface abutting against the frustoconical outer surface, so as to prevent the bushing from moving in the housing in a direction away from the output shaft.
