ABSTRACT:
The invention presented relates to an apparatus for applying rotational force to a workpiece. In general, this inventive apparatus includes a cylindrical driving member which has an opening sized to engage a workpiece on which rotational force is to be applied; a first outer cylindrical member disposed concentrically about the driving member and in a ratcheting relationship thereto, such that rotation of said first outer cylindrical member in a first direction will cause the driving member to rotate in the first direction, and rotation of the first outer cylindrical member in a second direction will not cause the driving member to rotate in the second direction; and a second outer cylindrical member disposed concentrically about the driving member and in a ratcheting relationship thereto such that rotation of the second outer cylindrical member in a first direction will cause rotation of the driving member in the first rotation and rotation of the second outer cylindrical member in a second direction will not cause rotation of the driving member in the second direction. The first and said second outer cylindrical members can be drivingly rotated in either of a first or a second direction in series to apply relatively continuous rotational force to the driving member or in parallel to apply intermittent yet higher powered force to the driving member.
