A control structure for a two-way ratchet tool comprising:
- a handle, an adjustment member, a ratchet member and a control member, characterized in that:
- the handle includes a shank portion, a drive portion and a ratchet portion, the shank portion is connected between the drive portion and the ratchet portion, the drive portion is a turning end of a hand tool, the ratchet portion is an annular opening which is defined with a positioning groove in an inner periphery thereof and a sliding surface extending from the positioning groove inwards, at the other side of the sliding surface of the ratchet portion is provided a protruding stop ring, the sliding surface of the ratchet portion is defined with an arc groove adjacent to the shank portion for accommodation of an elastic member, the positioning groove of the ratchet portion is defined with an adjustment recess located close to the shank portion, in the adjustment recess is provided a push member and a spring, the adjustment member is an arc block provided with plural teeth on an upper end thereof and a resisting surface on a lower end thereof, the adjustment member is formed with an adjustment rod extending from one side thereof, and the adjustment rod is triangular in cross section, the ratchet member is an annular member formed with a smooth surface and a toothed surface on an outer periphery thereof, the ratchet member is further provided with a wavy engaging surface on an inner periphery thereof, the control member includes a ring body with a wavy outer surface and a control end extending from the ring body, the ring body is defined with a locking groove in one side thereof for accommodation of a C-shaped clip, the ring body is further defined with a limiting recess vertical to the locking groove in alignment with the control end;
- when the control end is turned left or right, the adjustment member will be limited by the arc groove and the elastic member, so that the ratchet member is unable to rotate to achieve a function of turning a nut, with one of the two inclined surfaces of the adjustment rod pressed against the push member located in the adjustment recess, the adjustment member is allowed to be adjusted left or right, further, an engagement between the adjustment member and the ratchet member is improved, the elastic member is disposed in the arc groove and supports against the lower end of the adjustment member, the push member cooperates with the elastic member to increase a torque capacity of the ratchet member for preventing the ratchet member from rotating in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions.
