ABSTRACT:
A rescue tool with an extended hollow housing has the shaft of a tool bit mounted in one end thereof for reciprocable motion. A substantially solid hammer is manually driven to strike the tool bit, the hammer extending the greater portion of the length of the housing when striking the tool bit. Manual actuation of the hammer is achieved by means of a shroud having a handgrip on its outer surface, the shroud being secured to the hammer at the end away from the tool bit. The hammer may be locked with respect to the housing to provide a pry bar of two different lengths. Securing the hammer to prevent complete withdrawal of the hammer from the housing is achieved by an easily removable snap ring arrangement.
