Description

Multifunctional tool

Technical Field

The present application relates to a tool, and more particularly, to a multi-function tool.

Background

In daily life, it is often necessary to prepare various tools, such as a wrench, a screwdriver, etc., for occasional needs, however, management of a wide variety of tools is a cumbersome matter. Various tools are used in different applications, and are usually placed in different places, so that users often forget the positions where the various tools are placed, and much time is spent on searching for the tools. Moreover, in a practical application scenario, a user may need to use multiple tools at the same time, which not only takes a lot of time to align the various tools, but also takes a lot of time to arrange the various tools after they are used, and some tools may be lost due to omission in the arranging process.

In addition, the weight of various tools is heavier, and the occupied space is more, which is not beneficial to carry about. When carrying various tools out, a special accommodating space needs to be configured for the tools, which brings inconvenience to users.

Accordingly, multifunctional tools have come to be developed, which integrate a variety of tools to have a variety of functions. However, due to the integration of multiple tools, the tools have the problems of large volume, heavy weight, difficulty in carrying, complex structure, complex preparation process and the like.

In addition, some multi-function tools have difficulty meeting the actual needs of the user. For example, some multi-function tools are laborious to work on an object to be worked on. Specifically, when some multifunctional tools are used as screwdrivers, the handle for holding and the screwdriver head of the screwdriver extend coaxially, the length of the moment arm is only the length of the radius of the handle during the process of rotating the acting object, and the user needs to rotate the screwdriver with great effort to drive the acted object to rotate. Even more, the user turns the screwdriver mainly by means of friction between the hand and the handle, which makes the user vulnerable to injury during turning of the screwdriver.

As another example, some multi-function tools are only capable of working on a particular specification of the object being worked on. In particular, some multi-function tools are only suitable for driving a screw or bolt of a particular size to rotate when used as a screwdriver. When some multifunctional tools are used as wrenches, the multifunctional tools are only suitable for driving nuts with specific sizes to rotate, and the application range is small.

Therefore, there is a need for a new multifunctional tool that integrates the functions of multiple tools, and at the same time, compactly arranges various functional components together, and relatively more satisfies the actual needs of the user.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2 of the drawings accompanying the present application, a multi-function tool according to an embodiment of the present application includes: a frame carrier 10 and a snapping mechanism 20 mounted to said frame carrier 10. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the frame carrier 10 includes a first body 11 and a second body 12 integrally and obliquely extending rearward from the first body 11. That is, the first body 11 and the second body 12 extend obliquely with respect to each other.

In this embodiment, the first body 11 has a front end 111 and a rear end 112 extending rearward from the front end 111, wherein the front end 111 of the first body 11 is provided with the engagement mechanism 20.

Specifically, the engaging mechanism 20 includes a first mounting structure 22 and an engaging body 21, wherein a space between the engaging body 21 and the front end 111 of the first body 11 forms an engaging opening 201, and the engaging opening 201 is adapted to engage with an object (e.g., a bolt, a nut) to be acted upon. The engaging body 21 may be movably mounted to the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 by the first mounting structure 22, or may be fixedly mounted to the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 by the first mounting structure 22.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the engaging body 21 is movably mounted to the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 through the first mounting structure 22, and is configured to enable the engaging opening 201 to be in an open state or a closed state, i.e., enable the engaging mechanism 20 to be in an open state or a closed state, by moving relative to the first body 11, as shown in fig. 1 and 7. During the process that the engaging body 21 moves relative to the first body 11, the size of the engaging opening 201 formed by the space between the engaging body 21 and the front end 111 of the first body 11 changes, so that the engaging opening 201 is suitable for engaging objects of different specifications.

More specifically, the engaging body 21 is movably mounted to the front end 111 of the first body 11 in a pivotable manner, in such a manner that the size of the engaging opening 201 formed by the space between the engaging body 21 and the front end 111 of the first body 11 is changed while the engaging body 21 rotates about the first mounting structure 22 as a pivot axis, as shown in fig. 1 and 7.

It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the frame carrier 10 further comprises a first stopper 131 formed at the front end 111 of the first body 11 and adapted to block the unexpected movement of the engaging body 21 so that the angle of the engaging opening 201 is within the predetermined angle range. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 7, the first stopper 131 is protrudingly formed on a side wall of the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 and is formed around the first mounting structure 22. When the engaging body 21 rotates to a first position along a first direction (e.g., counterclockwise) with the first mounting structure 22 as a pivot axis, the first stopper 131 prevents the engaging body 21 from continuing to rotate along the first direction because the first stopper 131 protrudes from the sidewall of the front end portion 111; when the engaging body 21 rotates to the second position along the second direction (e.g., clockwise) opposite to the first direction, the first stopper 131 prevents the engaging body 21 from continuing to rotate along the second direction because the first stopper 131 protrudes from the sidewall of the front end portion 111, such that the angle of the engaging opening 201 is within the predetermined angle range.

In a specific embodiment, the preset angle range of the bite port 201 is 0 ° to 90 °, i.e. the critical value of the preset angle range of the bite port 201 is 90 °, i.e. the bite port 201 can be opened to 90 °; in other embodiments, the threshold value of the preset angle range of the bite opening 201 may be set to other values, for example, 120 °.

In this embodiment, the first stopper 131 is integrally formed on the first body 11 by a molding process, so that the multifunctional tool has a simple structure and a simple manufacturing process. In a modified embodiment of this embodiment, the first stopper 131 may also be formed on the first body 11 by other methods, such as welding, attaching, sleeving, etc.

In this embodiment, when the bite port 201 is in an open state and bites into an object to be acted, the first body 11 or the second body 12 can be used as a grip arm. The holding arm can drive the engaged acted object to rotate while being rotated so as to mount or dismount the acted object, so that the multifunctional tool can be used as a wrench.

In particular, in this embodiment, the second body 12 extends obliquely relative to the first body 11, and when the second body 12 is used as the holding arm and drives the engaged acting object to rotate, the second body 12 functions to increase the moment arm, so as to drive the engaged acting object to rotate relatively more laborsavingly. That is, the multifunctional tool can act on the acted object in a labor-saving manner by the structural relationship design of the first body 11 and the second body 12.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the angle between the second body 12 and the first body 11 is greater than or equal to 90 ° and less than 180 °. In a specific embodiment, the angle between the second body 12 and the first body 11 is designed to be 145 °, and in other embodiments, the angle between the second body 12 and the first body 11 is designed to be 90 °, 150 °, or other values.

Further, in this embodiment, the spaced-apart space between the engaging body 21 and the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 forms an olecranal-shaped engaging opening 201. It should be appreciated that in a variation of this embodiment, the spaced-apart space between the bite body 21 and the front end 111 of the first body 11 may form a bite opening 201 of other shapes, such as an O-shaped bite opening 201.

Further, the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 has a first saw-tooth structure 81, and the inner wall of the engaging body 21 has a second saw-tooth structure 82. In this way, the engagement body 21 and the engagement opening 201 formed at the distal end portion 111 of the first body 11 are formed as a tooth-shaped engagement opening 201, and thus the frictional force between the engagement opening 201 and the object to be acted upon can be increased, so that the engagement body 21 is tightly engaged with the object to be acted upon.

As shown in fig. 1, in this embodiment, the bite body 21 includes a neck portion 211, a beak portion 212 extending from the neck portion 211 in a curved manner, and a top portion 213 extending outward from the beak portion 212, wherein the neck portion 211 and the beak portion 212 of the bite body 21 and the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 form the bite opening 201, and the head portion of the bite body 21 has a through hole 202, and the through hole 202 penetrates the bite body 21 along a thickness direction of the top portion 213 of the bite body 21. The through hole 202 is adapted to allow a string, a hanging ring, etc. to be inserted therein, so that the multifunctional tool is portable and can be hung in a place where it is conveniently taken and placed, such as a neck, clothes, a wall, a handlebar, etc.

It is worth mentioning that the thickness of the top 213 should be thinner in order to facilitate the formation of the through hole 202 during the drilling process and to facilitate the insertion of objects such as suspension loops into the through hole 202. However, at the same time, the entire strength of the engaging body 21 is secured, and for this reason, the thickness of the top 213 is designed to be gradually increased inward from the position of the through-hole 202. Accordingly, as shown in fig. 1 and 6, at least one of the opposite sides of the top 213 of the engaging body 21 in the thickness direction thereof is trapezoidal in shape.

In this embodiment, the second body 12 has a dovetail structure 121 for removing or mounting an object to be acted upon (e.g., screw, bolt). Specifically, as shown in fig. 3A, the dovetail structure 121 is adapted to be inserted into a notch 701 of an acted object such as a screw, a bolt, etc., and drive the screw, the bolt, etc., to rotate during rotation thereof, so as to implement mounting or dismounting of the acted object, so that the multifunctional tool can be used as a screwdriver.

It is worth mentioning that the first body 11 extends obliquely relative to the second body 12, and when the dovetail structure 121 of the second body 12 acts on the acted object, the first body 11 can be used as a holding arm and increase the moment arm, so that the multifunctional tool can act on the acted object in a labor-saving way.

Specifically, the grip of the conventional screwdriver extends coaxially with the screwdriver head, i.e., during rotation of the screwdriver, the grip rotates coaxially with the screwdriver head, and the diameter of the grip is slightly larger than that of the screwdriver head, serving to increase the moment arm. However, in the process of rotating the acting object by the conventional screwdriver, the length of the moment arm is only the length of the radius of the handle, and the user still needs to rotate the screwdriver with great effort to drive the acted object to rotate. Even more, the user turns the screwdriver mainly by means of friction between the hand and the handle, which makes the user vulnerable to injury during turning of the screwdriver.

In the present embodiment, the first body 11 extends obliquely relative to the second body 12, and the length of the moment arm is the distance from the force application point of the dovetail structure 121 of the second body 12 to the central axis of the first body 11 during the rotation of the action object by the multifunctional tool. When the multifunctional tool is used as a screwdriver, the force arm of the multifunctional tool is far larger than that of a traditional screwdriver in the process of acting on an acted object, and the acted object can be rotated relatively more laborsavingly.

In addition, when the first body 11 is used as a holding arm, a user can apply pressure to the second body 12 and then apply downward pressure to the acted object while rotating the second body 12, so that the dovetail structures 121 of the second body 12 press the notches 701 of the acted object, which facilitates the second body 12 to bring the acted object to rotate synchronously therewith.

It can be seen that the snap bodies 21 and the dovetail structures 121 are respectively arranged at both ends of the multi-function tool, i.e., the front end portion 111 of the first body 11 and the second body 12 extending rearward relative to the first body 11, so that when the snap bodies 21 act on an object to be acted upon, the second body 12 is used as a gripping arm to increase a moment arm; when the dovetail structure 121 acts on the object to be acted upon, the first body 11 is used as a holding arm to increase the moment arm, and such a structure design not only makes the structure of the multifunctional tool compact, but also can act on the object to be acted upon in a relatively labor-saving manner when the multifunctional tool is used as a different tool.

Further, in this embodiment, the dovetail structure 121 includes a first wedge structure 122 and a second wedge structure 123, and a gap 124 is formed between the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123.

In particular, each of the first wedge-shaped structure 122 and the second wedge-shaped structure 123 may act on a acted object such as a screw, a bolt, or the like having a notch 701 with a corresponding size range, so as to drive the acted object such as the screw, the bolt, or the like to rotate, thereby implementing installation or removal of the acted object, as shown in fig. 3B and 3C. The first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 may also be used as a third wedge structure having a larger width dimension (compared to the first wedge structure 122 or the second wedge structure 123) as a whole, and act on a screw, a bolt, or the like having a notch 701 with a larger dimension, as shown in fig. 3D. That is, the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 have a wide application range, so that the multifunctional tool can be used to detach or attach various specifications of screws, bolts, and the like to be acted on. In this way, the simple structural design of the second body 12 itself not only enables the multi-function tool to be used as a screwdriver, but also widens the application range and use scenarios of the multi-function tool.

Specifically, each of the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 has an outer sloped wall and an inner sloped wall, and an end wall between the outer sloped wall and the inner sloped wall, wherein the inner sloped wall and the outer sloped wall extend obliquely from the end wall, and the inner sloped walls of the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 form the gap. The width of the first wedge structure 122 (i.e., the length of the end wall of the first wedge structure 122) is a first width, the width of the second wedge structure 123 (i.e., the length of the end wall of the second wedge structure 123) is a second width, and the width of the dovetail structure is the sum of the widths of the first wedge structure 122, the second wedge structure 123, and the gap 124, wherein the width of the third wedge structure is the width of the dovetail structure.

In particular, the first wedge structure 122 may be inserted into a slot having a length dimension that is less than the first width. As shown in fig. 3B, when the length dimension of the slot 701 of the acted object such as a screw, a bolt or the like is smaller than the first width, the first wedge structure 122 is tiltably inserted into the slot 701 of the acted object, and the acted object is rotated by the tip formed by the inner wall or the outer wall of the first wedge structure 122 and the end wall. When the notch 701 of the object to be acted on, such as a screw or a bolt, is shallow, the object to be acted on can also be rotated by the tip end portion of the first wedge-shaped structure 122, and the first wedge-shaped structure 122 can be prevented from being released from the object to be acted on by pressing down the first body 11 to apply downward pressure to the dovetail structure 121 of the second body 12. Likewise, the second wedge-shaped structure 123 may be inserted into a slot having a length dimension less than the second width or a shallower slot.

It should be understood that the first wedge 122 may also be inserted into a slot having a length dimension greater than the first width. As shown in fig. 3C, the notch 701 of the acted object has a specific depth and width, when the length dimension of the notch 701 of the acted object is greater than the width of the first wedge-shaped structure 122, in the process that the first wedge-shaped structure 122 is rotated, the first wedge-shaped structure 122 embedded into the notch 701 abuts against the inner wall of the notch 701, and the acted object is rotated by the first wedge-shaped structure 122. Further, during the process of rotating the first wedge-shaped structure 122, a user may apply downward pressure to make the first wedge-shaped structure 122 press the notch 701 of the acted object, so as to drive the acted object to rotate synchronously with the first wedge-shaped structure 122. Likewise, the second wedge-shaped structure 123 may be inserted into a slot having a length dimension greater than the second width.

Accordingly, the third wedge structure with the larger width dimension formed by the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 may be inserted into a slot with a length dimension smaller than the width of the third wedge structure (i.e., the width of the dovetail structure 121) and may also be inserted into a slot with a length dimension larger than the width of the third wedge structure (i.e., the width of the dovetail structure 121).

It can be seen that the minimum of the length dimension of the slot into which dovetail structure 121 is adapted to be inserted is less than the width of either first wedge structure 122 or second wedge structure 123; the maximum value of the length dimension of the slot into which dovetail structure 121 is adapted to be inserted is greater than the width of dovetail structure 121. That is, the length dimension of the slot into which the dovetail structure is adapted to be inserted ranges from a first threshold value that is less than the width of the first wedge-shaped structure to a second threshold value that is greater than the width of the dovetail structure.

In particular, the gap 124 between the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123 may be used to pry a nail. Specifically, the gap 124 may trap the top of a nail between the first wedge structure 122 and the second wedge structure 123, and the nail may be pried by driving the frame carrier 10 and levering so that the multi-function tool may be used as a nail puller.

In this embodiment, the carrier frame 10 further includes a serpentine structure 14 integrally formed with the first body 11 and forming a bottle opener with the first body 11 and the second body 12. Specifically, the serpentine structure 14 has a curved wall 141 and a slope 142 extending from the curved wall 141, and the curved wall 141 of the serpentine structure 14 forms a serpentine cavity 102 with the side wall of the first body 11 and the side wall of the second body 12, as shown in fig. 1 and 2. The serpentine structure 14 can engage the cap 801 of the bottle therein, so that an edge of the cap 801 abuts against the inclined surface 142, the top surface of the cap 801 abuts against the side wall of the first body 11 or the side wall of the second body 12, and the user can lever the cap 801 from the body. The multi-function tool of this embodiment compactly and simply arranges the bottle opener to the carrier frame 10 by providing the serpentine structure 14 to the first body 11 and forming the serpentine cavity 102 by the side walls of the first body 11 and the second body 12.

It is worth mentioning that the second body 12 extends obliquely with respect to the first body 11, so that the sinuous chamber 102 has two active surfaces that can be abutted against the top surface of the bottle cap 801, namely a first active surface formed by the side wall of the first body 11 and a second active surface formed by the side wall of the second body 12, so that the multi-function tool can act on bottle caps of different sizes through the sinuous chamber 102. That is, the multi-purpose tool may be used as a bottle opener and may be used to open caps of different sizes.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 4A, when the size of the bottle cap 801 is small, an edge of the bottle cap 801 abuts against the inclined surface 142, the entire top surface of the bottle cap 801 abuts against the side wall of the first body 11 to form the first acting surface, and a user can pry the bottle cap 801 from a bottle body by using a lever action. As shown in fig. 4B, when the diameter of the top surface of the bottle cap 801 is larger than the length of the first active surface, the bottle cap 801 may be engaged with the meandering cavity 102 in a manner of inclining to the first active surface, wherein the second active surface formed on the side wall of the second body 12 functions to abut against the bottle cap 801, and the user may pry the bottle cap 801 from the bottle body by leverage.

It can be seen that the second body 12 can play different roles in different application scenarios by designing the structural relationship between the first body 11 and the second body 12. When the multi-function tool is used as a wrench, the second body 12 can be used as a gripping arm to increase the moment arm, so that the multi-function tool acts on an acted object in a labor-saving manner; when the multi-function tool is used as a bottle opener, the sidewall of the second body 12 may be used as a second active surface that acts on the bottle cap 801.

In this embodiment, the multi-function tool further includes a cutter mechanism 30 mounted to the second body 12. Specifically, the cutter mechanism 30 includes a second mounting structure 32 and a cutter body 31 movably mounted to the second body 12 via the second mounting structure 32. The knife body 31 is movably mounted to the second main body 12 in a pivotable manner, and rotates with the second mounting structure 32 as a pivot shaft, so that the knife body 31 is in an extended state or a retracted state, that is, the knife mechanism 30 is in an open state or a closed state.

It should be noted that the knife body 31 is installed on the second body 12 and is close to the turning position of the first body 11 and the second body 12. When the knife body 31 is in the folded state, the knife body 31 is located at the side of the side wall of the first body 11, and the cutting edge of the knife body 31 is not exposed. When the blade body 31 is in the deployed state, the second body 12 extends obliquely with respect to the first body 11, and therefore, the second body 12 will avoid the blade edge of the blade body 31, so that the blade edge of the blade body 31 is exposed to facilitate the blade body 31 to act on an object to be acted on (e.g., a string). Moreover, the first body 11 can also be used as a holding arm to increase the moment arm, so as to act on the acted object with relatively less effort.

In this embodiment, the frame carrier 10 further includes a second blocking member 132 formed at the first body 11 and the second body 12 and adapted to block the unintended movement of the cutter body 31. Specifically, the second stopper 132 is protrudingly formed on the side walls of the first body 11 and the second body 12, and the second stopper 132 forms an accommodating groove 101 adapted to accommodate the cutter body 31 with a partial surface of the first body 11 and a partial surface of the second body 12, as shown in fig. 1 and 7. When the blade 31 is accommodated in the accommodating groove 101, the blade of the blade 31 faces the inner wall of the accommodating groove 101, so that the blade of the blade 31 can be prevented from striking an unintended target.

When the knife body 31 rotates along a first direction (e.g., counterclockwise) to a retracted position about the second mounting structure 32, the second blocking member 132 prevents the knife body 31 from continuing to rotate along the first direction because the second blocking member 132 protrudes from the first body 11 and the second body 12; when the cutter body 31 is rotated to the extended position in a second direction (e.g., clockwise direction) opposite to the first direction, the second stopper 132 prevents the cutter body 31 from continuing to rotate in the second direction since the second stopper 132 protrudes from the first body 11 and the second body 12.

In this embodiment, the second stopper 132 is integrally formed on the first body 11 and the second body 12 by a molding process. In a modified embodiment of this embodiment, the second stopper 132 may also be formed on the first body 11 and the second body 12 by other methods, such as welding, attaching, sleeving, etc.

In particular, in this embodiment, the first stopper 131 and the second stopper 132 are integrally formed and form a protruding structure protruding from the side walls of the first body 11 and the second body 12, so that the structure of the multifunctional tool is simple and the manufacturing process is simple.

In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 7, the cutter mechanism 30 further includes an auxiliary structure 33 mounted on the cutter body 31, the auxiliary structure 33 protrudes out of the surface of the cutter body 31, and the cutter body 31 can be driven to rotate by pulling the auxiliary structure 33. Specifically, the cutter body 31 has a mounting groove 301, and the auxiliary structure 33 may be mounted to the cutter body 31 by being mounted in the mounting groove 301, as shown in fig. 8. It should be understood that the auxiliary structure 33 may be mounted to the cutter body 31 by other means, such as, for example, attaching, welding, etc.

In this embodiment, the multi-purpose tool further includes a catch structure 40 formed in the frame carrier 10, as shown in fig. 6 and 10. The retaining structure 40 allows the multi-function tool to be retained in a backpack, pocket, or the like so that the multi-function tool is easily carried and placed in a desired location and is not easily lost. In particular, the retaining structure 40 comprises at least one fastening element 41 and a retaining element 42 which is fixed to the frame carrier 10 by means of the fastening element 41, the fastening element 41 being embodied as a screw. It should be understood that the retaining element 42 may also be secured to the frame carrier 10 by other means, such as welding, attaching, integral molding, etc.

Further, the multi-function tool further includes a magnetic attraction structure 50 formed on the frame carrier 10, as shown in fig. 5 and 9. The magnetic attraction structure 50 allows the multi-function tool to be secured in a desired position by a magnetic attraction. Specifically, the magnetic attraction structure 50 may be implemented as a metal structure having magnetic attraction capability, such as low-carbon steel, or a magnet structure having magnetic attraction capability.

In summary, the multifunctional tool is illustrated, which integrates the functions of various tools such as a wrench, a cutter, a screwdriver, a nail puller, a bottle opener, etc., and can be applied to various scenes without spending much time for searching different tools. In addition, various functional components are compactly and simply integrated through the structural relation design of each component and the structural relation between each component, so that the multifunctional tool has a compact structure, and is convenient to carry. In addition, when the multifunctional tool is used as a different tool, the multifunctional tool can act on an acted object in a relatively labor-saving manner. Moreover, the multifunctional tool can act on acted objects with different specifications, and is beneficial to widening the application range.
