Abstract
A stepless telescopic hand tool includes a main body, a bar and a positioning device. The positioning device is installed between the main body and the bar, consisting of a rotating knob and a torsion spring. The rotating knob has an engaging hole bored axially at one side for correspondingly engaging with the bar and a penetrating hole bored at the other side for engaging with the main body. The torsion spring has a locking end at its two sides respectively for fitting in a hole of the bar and a locking hole of the rotating knob, for pivotally fitting the positioning device with the bar, enabling the main body to move freely while twisting the rotating knob and be tightened in case of releasing the rotating knob from being twisted.
Claims10
A stepless telescopic hand tool comprising:
- a main body provided with a working head in its front portion for engaging with a tool and a telescopic bar at its rear portion;
- a bar consisting of an engaging member formed in a front portion, said engaging member provided with an axial opening bored axially for placing said telescopic bar of said main body, a hole bored near its front annular edge, an annular projection projected around an inner wall of said axial opening behind said hole and an annular restricting slot set around its outer surface;
- and
- a positioning device installed between said main body and said bar and composed of a rotating knob and a torsion spring, said rotating knob formed cylindrical and provided with an engaging hole bored axially for correspondingly engaging with said engaging member of said bar and a penetrating hole bored at its other end for engaging with said telescopic bar of said main body, an annular projection set around an inner wall of said rotating knob at an inner end of said engaging hole, a locking hole concaved at a preset location of said annular projection, a restricting hole bored on the outer surface of said rotating knob corresponding to said annular restricting slot of said bar for a restricting bolt to pass through to lock in said annular restricting slot so as to keep said positioning device locked fixedly with said bar, said torsion spring having a diameter equal to that of said telescopic bar of said main body and provided with a locking end at its upper and its lower side respectively, said locking ends respectively inserted in said engaging member of said bar and said locking hole of said rotating knob so that said positioning device can be pivotally fixed with said bar and said torsion spring is able to tighten said telescopic bar in said engaging member of said bar.
