  • Patent number: 5682802
    Abstract: A wrench of the type having one handle produced by the manufacturing processes of drop forging and machining, incorporating a pivot point that acts as a fulcrum for a cam member that is integral with a wormwheel segment. The cam member terminates in the recess of a moveable jaw member which provides the surface for the cam to advance or retrack the jaw member toward or away from a fixed jaw that is integral with the handle member. The wormwheel is meshed with a worm gear member that can be rotated, advancing or retracking the moveable jaw member toward or away from a fixed jaw that is integral with the handle member.

  • Patent number: 5050465
    Abstract: Pliers comprising a stationary pliers member (10) with associated first jaw member (11) and a moveable pliers member (12) with associated second jaw member (13). Jaw member (13) of the moveable pliers member is moveable towards and away from jaw member (11) of the stationary pliers member by means of an actuating handle (21) pivotable relative to the stationary pliers member (10). The second jaw member (13) is moveable towards the first jaw member (11) in a two-step movement, that is to say with a first movement with relatively long length of movement and with relatively little force by means of a first actuating means (17, 19) between the actuating handle (21) and the moveable pliers member (12) and with a second movement with relatively short length of movement and with relatively large force by means of a second actuating means (26) between the actuating handle (21) and the moveable pliers member (12).
