ABSTRACT:
A ratchet wrench includes a body, a ratchet wheel, a control unit, and a rotary knob. The body has an end forming a ratchet wheel bore and a receiving hole, which respectively and rotatably receive the ratchet wheel and the rotary knob therein. A channel is defined in the body between the ratchet wheel bore and the receiving hole for receiving therein the control unit. The control unit includes two detent blocks and a spring. The detent blocks are selectively engageable with teeth formed in the ratchet wheel. The rotary knob retains a control bar and a positioning ball. The receiving hole has an inner circumferential wall in which two positioning notches are defined. The control bar is operated to move the detent blocks to desired positions and the positioning ball is biased by a spring into selective engagement with the positioning notches for proper positioning of the detent blocks.
