A generally cylindrical shaped tool handle holds multiple sizes of tools. The handle includes one or more holding slots each positioned on one of multiple outer surface faces into which tools are inserted and held. Each holding slot includes one or more contoured compartments in which tools rest when engaged with the handle. Each contoured compartment is of a size and dimension which corresponds to one or more tool sizes. In the preferred embodiment of the tool handle, three of its outer surface faces have a continuous holding slot with multiple receiving holes for inserting therein hexagonal wrenches of multiple sizes. The continuous holding slots of the preferred embodiment of the handle include multiple contoured compartments for holding an inserted hexagonal wrench. Each contoured compartment is formed about a corresponding receiving hole. A lock is positioned over the contoured compartment to irremovably confine the short leg of the hexagonal wrench within the contoured compartment. Hexagonal shaped tools other than wrenches may be used with the handle of the present invention such as screwdrivers and socket wrenches. A tool holder of the present invention is designed to slide over the handle and to hold multiple sizes of tools which may be used with the handle. The tool holder includes a tool holding member having a plurality of cavities for inserting therein appropriately sized tools and a tool handle holding member having a cavity with an inner hollow shape corresponding to a shape of the handle.
A generally cylindrical tool handle having a first end, a second end, and a generally cylindrical surface, the tool handle for accepting and holding any one of one or more tools of multiple sizes, wherein each tool includes an elongated rod having a bend through a predetermined angle and including a proximal end for engaging a workpiece, and a mounting end between the bend and a distal end, wherein the tool handle further includes a plurality of outer surface faces formed on the generally cylindrical surface, two or more of the outer surface faces having a holding slot integrally formed along the outer surface face for receiving the mounting end of a corresponding sized tool when the corresponding sized tool is engaged with the tool handle.
A tool handle having an outer surface for accepting and holding any one of one or more tools of multiple sizes during use, each having a first segment and a second segment, wherein the second segment is longer than the first segment, the tool handle comprising a plurality of outer surface faces, each formed on the outer surface and configured to allow the tool handle to engage an appropriate one of the tools of multiple sizes so that the appropriate one of the tools penetrates a first outer surface face and a second outer surface face when engaged with the tool handle, wherein two or more of the outer surface faces comprise a holding slot integrally formed along the outer surface face for receiving the appropriate one of the tools such that the first segment of the appropriate one of the tools rests within the holding slot when the appropriate one of the tools is engaged with the tool handle.
A tool handle for accepting and holding any one of one or more tools of multiple sizes, each tool having a first segment and a second segment, wherein the second segment is longer than the first segment, the tool handle comprising:
A tool holder for holding one or more tools of multiple sizes, each tool having a first segment and a second segment, wherein the second segment is longer than the first segment, and for holding a tool handle having a plurality of outer surface faces, the tool holder comprising:
