Definitions

  • the invention relates to a socket wrench extension with a polygonal, Insert part with wrench flats on one and one accordingly designed receiving part at the other end and with a joint between Receiving part and plug-in part, the plug-in part with one of the Key surfaces partially protruding locking element is provided with an axially guided in the plug-in pressure transmission element, one of which The end of the button or button-shaped design of the push button Pressure transmission element is used and the other end part of one Mechanism to implement a directed towards the male part Axial movement of the pressure transmission element in an outward movement of the Locking element is.
  • the task of the mentioned locking element is, under spring tension in a appropriately designed recess of that receiving part to snap into which insert part of the socket wrench extension is used. In the As a rule, this is the receiving part of the socket wrench insert.
  • Locking the locking element into the recess should make it too easy to separate of the two tool parts should be prevented, these should only be used a certain axial force can be connected and later released again. nevertheless unintentional loosening can often occur, for example if the Socket wrench extension with a socket wrench insert locked in slightly tilted alignment can be removed from a screw or nut got to.
  • a socket wrench extension with the features mentioned above is out WO 95/08720 A1 known.
  • the pressure transmission element is included an actuating element in the form of a pivot lever or a Slider connected, using the pressure transmission element from a locking position to an unlocking point or from one less can be transferred into a more secure position for the spherical locking element is. It is therefore necessary to actuate the actuating element separately, to bring about the desired position of the locking element.
  • Socket wrench extensions for example in car repair shops, is any additional manual handling when locking and unlocking the Locking element unsatisfactory.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a socket wrench extension with improved hold of the inserted socket wrench insert and comparatively simple handling.
  • a pivotally mounted element of the joint on the plug-in part has an eccentric pressure transmission surface with respect to the axis of rotation, against which the pin-shaped or button-shaped end of the pressure transmission element rests, the sets the largest width of the eccentric when the receiving part and the insert part are arranged in a straight alignment to one another.
  • the socket wrench extension according to the invention is with a joint between Insert part and receiving part be provided, in particular one on all sides swiveling universal joint.
  • Socket wrench extension is only secondary to the extension effect, primarily it is about providing an angle-attachable Socket wrench connection for working in places that are not in the longitudinal direction are reachable.
  • a universal joint is said to be Socket extension can be viewed in the sense of this invention.
  • the eccentric design of the joint allows the Insert part with the receiving part of a key attachment by simple Swiveling the extension.
  • the socket wrench extension according to the invention is essential Improved hold of the inserted socket wrench insert on the socket wrench extension achieved.
  • a pressure transmission element is guided, one end of which is used as a pressure transmission element serves and the other end part of a mechanism with which the movement of the pressure transmission element in a Outward movement of the locking element is transferred.
  • the other end of the pressure transmission element is provided with a bevel that abuts the radially guided locking element.
  • a Spring proposed, which one directed towards the pin or key end Exerts pressure force on the pressure transmission element is preferably supported the spring with one end on the male part and the other end on the pressure transmission element.
  • the Socket wrench extension with a universal joint between the receiving part and Insert part that has any angle between 0 and 90 ° Receiving part and insert part enables.
  • the single figure shows a socket wrench extension in a sectional view in the form of a universal joint.
  • the universal joint connection that can be used as part of a socket wrench system consists of a receiving part 1 with a molded therein Inner square, a plug-in part 2 with an outer square formed thereon as well u. a. a gimbal element 16, which receiving part 1 and insert part 2 articulated connects with each other.
  • the square surfaces of receiving part 1 and insert part 2 correspond to the internationally customary and standardized dimensions for socket wrench systems.
  • the plug-in part 2 is provided with a locking element 4 in Shape of a sphere.
  • the locking element 4 When inserting the outer square 5 in one Inner square, as he z. B. is provided in the receiving part 1, the locking element 4 initially pushed back in its radial bore 6 and can then in a recess in the outer square provided for this purpose engage. Such a recess is in the receiving part 1 by a corresponding hole 7 realized.
  • the spherical locking element is pushed back 4 in the radial bore 6 against the force of an arranged there Feather. This is also the force with which the outer square 5 is held in an appropriate square, depending on the spring force.
  • spherical locking element 4 not directly a spring, but a Pressure transmission element 8 in the form of a short rod or a pin on.
  • the pressure transmission element 8 is in a longitudinal bore 9 of the Inserted part 2 out and has at one end a slope 10, which rests on the inside of the spherical locking element 4.
  • the other End 14 is shaped like a button, and its back serves as a contact surface for a spring acting on pressure 11.
  • the spring 11 is arranged so that it exerts a force on the pressure transmission element 8, which endeavors to the pressure transmission element 8 away from the insertion part 2 and in the direction to move the gimbal 16.
  • the cardan element 16 which has a first bolt 17 with the plug-in part 2, and articulated with the receiving part 1 via a second bolt 18 connected, has one with respect to the axis of rotation 19 of the bolt 17 an eccentric pressure transmission surface 20.
  • the pressure transfer area 20 lies on the button-shaped end 14 of the pressure transmission element 8, whereby, as the drawing shows, the eccentrically designed pressure transmission surface 20 there the greatest distance from the axis of rotation 19, where the button-shaped end 14 at a straight mutual alignment of receiving part 1 and insert part 2 is present.
  • the eccentrically designed contour of the pressure transmission surface 20 is so chosen that the release of the locking element 4 takes place only when, as shown in the drawing, receiving part and insert part strong be angled towards each other.
