Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a socket holder capable of surely holding a socket in such a manner as to prevent it from coming off when the socket is fitted in the socket holder, and capable of easily switching for releasing the holding force at the time of fitting and removing the socket to and from the socket holder. <P>SOLUTION: A shape of a fitting part of the socket holder with respect to the socket having a quadrangle insertion port generally used is a columnar shape, and the socket can be rotated even when the socket is fitted in the socket holder. A springy holding device is provided on the columnar part of the socket holder, and thereby the socket is rotated in the state that the socket and the socket holder are fitted to each other, and the fitting position is changed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

  The present invention relates to a socket holder for storing and organizing and storing a socket used for a commonly used ratchet wrench, impact wrench or the like.

  Many types of socket holders for storing and storing sockets have been proposed in the past, but most of them have a spring property or spring property to hold the socket in the socket holder. In order to hold the socket securely in the socket holder, a spring strength corresponding to the weight of the socket is required to securely hold the socket in the holder. However, since the holding power is always applied to the socket, there is a drawback that it is very difficult to remove.

There are some things that can be easily removed by releasing the holding force with a lever or the like.

  The problem to be solved is that the socket holder can be securely held so that it does not fall off when the socket is fitted in the socket holder, and the socket holder that can be easily switched to release the holding force when the socket is fitted into the socket holder or removed. Is to propose.

  In the present invention, the shape of the portion in which the socket holder is fitted to the most commonly used rectangular socket is a cylindrical shape so that the socket can be rotated even when the socket is fitted to the socket holder. By providing a holding device with a spring property to hold the socket in the cylindrical part of the socket holder, by changing the position of the fitting by rotating the socket and the socket holder in a fitted state, the holding state and The main feature is that it is possible to easily switch the release.

  The socket holder of the present invention is securely held in a state where the socket is fitted to the socket holder, and the holding force is applied to prevent the socket from falling off, and the holding force can be easily released when the socket is fitted to the socket holder and when the socket is removed. This has the advantage that the socket can be fitted and removed without any resistance.

  The part of the socket holder where the socket fits is a cylindrical shape, and by holding several holding devices on the side, the holding force can be increased by rotating the socket while it is fitted to the socket holder and changing the position of the fitting. A socket holder that can be easily switched between hanging and releasing is realized with the simplest structure.

  FIG. 1 is a three-dimensional view of a state in which the socket holder of the present invention is attached to a socket rail, and shows that the position of the socket holder can be moved along the socket rail according to the size of the socket.

  FIG. 2 shows the position of the holding device provided on the socket holder in three views of the socket holder.

  FIG. 3 shows a state where a socket with a rectangular insertion port is fitted into a socket holder and rotated 45 degrees to switch from a holding force release state to a holding state.

  4 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the socket and the socket holder of FIG. 3 are fitted together.

  The present invention can be made in various materials and forms within the scope of the claims, and is not limited to the configuration of the above embodiment.

  Since the socket holder of the present invention can be easily held and released by rotating it while being fitted with the socket, the socket holder can be applied to a portable application if the socket is fitted into the socket holder and held.

It is a three-dimensional view of the state where the socket holder is attached to the socket rail. It is a three-view figure of a socket holder. It is the top view which showed the state in which the socket holder and the socket were fitted. It is sectional drawing which showed the state with which the socket holder and the socket were fitted.

Claims (1)

  The socket holder's fitting shape is made cylindrical with respect to the commonly used rectangular socket, and the socket holder's cylindrical shape can be rotated even when the socket is fitted in the socket holder. By providing a holding device with springiness in the part of the socket, the socket and the socket holder are rotated in a state where the socket and the socket holder are fitted to change the position of the fitting, thereby securely holding the socket and releasing the holding force. Socket holder that can be switched easily.
