Abstract
A reversible socket wrench is disclosed having a file formed integral with the transverse part of the T-shaped body thereof for smoothing damaged surface or border edge of a skateboard and an adapter hex wrench detachably attached to the socket at the link at the longitudinal part of the T-shaped body by magnetic attraction and used for rotating the socket-head king pin of a skateboard.
Claims3
A socket wrench for skateboard, comprising:
- a T-shaped body, said T-shaped body having a transverse part, longitudinal part perpendicularly extended from said transverse part, a recessed portion located on said transverse part for receiving a tool, a first socket fixedly located on one end of said transverse part for rotating a king pin of a skateboard and a second socket fixedly located on an opposite end of said transverse part for rotating a predetermined size of screw bolts and nuts;
- a file fixedly mounted on the periphery of said transverse part of said T-shaped body and extending along between the two opposite ends of said transverse part for smoothing the surface of a skateboard;
- a cap capped on one end of said longitudinal part of said T-shaped body remote from said transverse part, said cap having a rectangular opening;
- a link coupled to said cap, said link having a gear disposed at one end thereof and received inside said cap and a socket located on an opposite end thereof;
- and
- a ratchet wheel set mounted in said cap for controlling direction of rotation of said link relative to said T-shaped body, said ratchet wheel set comprising a first L-shaped braking block for engaging said gear to stop said gear and said link from rotation in a first direction relative to said T-shaped body and to allow rotation of said gear and said link relative to said T-shaped body in a second direction reversed to said first direction, a second L-shaped braking block for engaging said gear to stop said gear and said link from rotation in said second direction relative to said T-shaped body and to allow rotation of said gear and said link relative to said T-shaped body in said first direction, and a slide coupled to and movable along the rectangular opening of said cap in one of a first position where said slide disengages said first L-shaped braking block from said gear and forces said second L-shaped braking block into engagement with said gear, a second position where said slide disengages said first L-shaped braking block and said second L-shaped braking block from said gear and a third position where said slide disengages said second L-shaped braking block from said gear and forces said first L-shaped braking block into engagement with said gear.
