ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
A small tool set particularly deep nut drivers where the nut drivers fit over each other in only one order with screw bits stored at the top of the handle. (see FIG. #
4
)
2. Description of the Related Art
Nut driver tools and sockets are similar except nut drivers have built in handles and sockets do not have built in handles.
Therefore inventions U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,620,460 and 4,882,985, also 2,991,678 can not be used without a lever or torque handle as my invention Ser. No. 09/606,444 can. Also noted that inventions U.S. Pat. No. 3,127,798 and invention U.S. Pat. No. 4,399,723 are a little more like my invention in that they have their own built in torque lever or handle. However, they are not hollow and cannot have long bolts or all thread rods put through them. The closest invention would be U.S. Pat. No. 4,399,723. The drawback between this invention and mine is the ease in retrieving the desired socket in my invention is far superior and far more efficient. My invention is deep drivers and stack only in one order over each other making it faster and easier to find and pull desired sizes. Also, the screw bits are easier to get to and use on my tool.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
With the aforementioned in mind, this present invention eliminates the shortcomings in prior art socket sets by providing such a set wherein the nut driver heads are deep and have a bolt or all tread rod clearance through sockets and handle as well. This is the only tool that can accomplish this without a lever or ratchet handle as it is built in. It is compact, convenient and thorough. The nut drivers stack in only one order with lock balls making it faster and easier to find the size nut driver you desire verses random order.
Although this tool is complete and made to be used independently, you can add a ratchet wrench at the butt of the handle where a ½″ drive female adaptor is located and used primarily to hold nut drivers not in use. It is an ultimate tool.
