| 82 | SELF-LOCKING DEVICE AND LOCKING AND UNLOCKING DEVICE THEREOF | US13978495 | 2012-01-04 | US20140286730A1 | 2014-09-25 | Lixin Zhou |
| A self-locking device having continuous locking positions comprises bases (21, 31), self-locking components (22, 32), first locking blocks (23, 33, 33′) and second locking blocks (23a, 33a, 33a′). Inner walls of the bases (21, 31) comprise first frictional contact surfaces (21W, 31W) and fourth frictional contact surfaces (21M, 31M). The self-locking components (22, 32) have second frictional contact surfaces (22M, 32M) and third frictional contact surfaces (22W, 32W), and are at least partially located in the bases (21, 31), so that the second frictional contact surfaces (22M, 32M) face the first frictional contact surfaces (21W, 31W), and the third frictional contact surfaces (22W, 32W) face the fourth frictional contact surfaces (21M, 31M). The first locking blocks (23, 33, 33′) are disposed between the first frictional contact surfaces (21W, 31W) and the second frictional contact surfaces (22M, 32M), and contact the first frictional contact surfaces (21W, 31W) and the second frictional contact surfaces (22M, 32M). The second locking blocks (23a, 33a, 33a′) are disposed between the third frictional contact surfaces (22W, 32W) and the fourth frictional contact surfaces (21M, 31M), and contact the third frictional contact surfaces (22W, 32W) and the fourth frictional contact surfaces (21M, 31M). The first locking blocks (23, 33, 33′) and the second locking blocks (23a, 33a, 33a′) are in such a structure that the self-locking components (22, 32) are capable of moving along a first direction (F1) relative to the self-locking bases (21, 31) under the effect of an external force, and are locked in a second direction (F2) opposite to the first direction (F1). In this way, the self-locking components (22, 32) can be locked at any one of the continuous locking positions. Also disclosed is a tool (7A-7C) for locking and unlocking the self-locking device. The self-locking device is capable of implementing fast locking and unlocking, which is convenient to use. | ||||||

| 91 | Break-away lug nut positioner | US184916 | 1998-11-02 | US6039408A | 2000-03-21 | William Alvarez |
| A break-away lug nut positioner for holding lug nuts on a race car wheel to facilitate more rapid tire changes during pit stops. The break-away lug nut positioner includes a spacer that supports a lug nut at a proper distance over a mounting hole of a race car wheel. That is, the spacer holds the lug nut so that it is adjacent to a threaded mounting stud when the wheel is held flush against the race car hub. During installation, the lug nut is driven into the spacer cavity, forcing the spacer to break into pieces. The adhesive bond between the lug nut and the spacer is weaker than the individual pieces of the spacer, which causes the spacer to separate cleanly from the lug nut, allowing the lug nut to seat properly against the wheel mounting plate. That is, the adhesive and the material and configuration of the spacer are selected so that the spacer breaks cleanly away from the lug nut, and no spacer material remains between the lug nut and the mounting plate. | ||||||

| 93 | Multi-purpose wrench tool | US586121 | 1996-01-16 | US5685207A | 1997-11-11 | Ray Hubert |
| An improved, two-piece multipurpose wrench tool which offers the strength of a standard four-way lug wrench, the flexibility of an adjustable socket set, and the compact storage ability of a straight, single-piece tool. An elongated leverage bar is inserted through a bore of a main wrench shaft member whereby a thimble-shaped section of the leverage bar becomes securely wedged within the similarly sized and shaped interior surface of the bore. The main wrench shaft member has a standard automobile lug nut socket on one end and a male socket adaptor on the other. Such male socket adaptor is capable of receiving the female attachment end of sockets having a variety of sizes. During operation, the leverage bar is used to provide the torque necessary to either tighten or loosen nuts or bolts. The leverage bar of the present invention also has a standard screwdriver head formed at one of its ends to allow for miscellaneous screwdriving applications and the convenient removal of hub caps and tires. | ||||||

| 96 | Support for hand operated rotatable tool | US784910 | 1991-10-30 | US5263392A | 1993-11-23 | Andre Schoen |
| A support (10) for a hand operated rotatable tool, such as a wheel brace (12), having a socket (74) for location upon a nut/stud (14) for supporting an elbow (72) of the tool during use to inhibit slippage of the socket (74) off the nut/stud (14). The support (10) solves the problem of loosening nuts/studs (14) tightened with pneumatic wrenches--which loosening is often difficult and sometimes impossible with the relatively small wheel braces (12) provided in vehicle tool kits. The support (10) has a cradle (26) whose height above the ground can be adjusted so as to support the wheel brace (12) whilst maintaining an axis of the socket (74) in alignment with an axis of the nut/stud (14). The cradle (26) is mounted upon a frame (19) having a base (20), a first leg (22) and a second leg (24). The first leg (22) is pivoted between the base (20) and the second leg (24) so that the support (10) can be collapsed to a storage condition and erected to an in-use condition with the cradle (26) disposed upper-most. A tongue (58) of a free end (56) of the second leg (24) engages with one of a plurality of slots (40) in an outer base member (30) of the base (20) for effecting adjustment of the height of the cradle (26) above the base (20).Other forms of height adjustment and a method of loosening/tightening a nut/stud are also described. | ||||||
