ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a tool for the partial or complete removal and installation of press pins lodged within a latch device which fasten an automobile window to an automobile body, or press pins lodged in latches which are attached to an automobile window. The present invention employs novel jaws to partially or completely remove press pins of any size by the use of unique, removable tips. These tips slidably engage one jaw of the press pin remover tool, and after the tip is securely engaged within the jaw, it is capable of rotation about an axis perpendicular to the length of the tool. Rotation around such an axis allows the tip, and more generally the tool, to adapt to any size latch as used in the automotive industry for the purpose of partially or completely removing a lodged press pin. The present invention is also adapted to install press pins into latch portions in order to construct a completed latch device. In this application, the present invention can employ either special tips or its handle portions to apply an axial thrust force against a press pin in order to force the press pin partially or completely into a latch portion channel or hole.
