Abstract
A device which facilitates the connection and disconnection of threaded members includes a first handle receiving collar secured at the end of an elongate member and a second handle receiving collar which is slidably and rotatably disposed on the elongate member. A first wrench is appropriately positioned on one of the threaded members and the first collar is positioned about the handle of the first wrench. In a similar manner, a second wrench is appropriately positioned on the threaded members and the slidable collar is positioned about its handle. Force is then applied to the elongate member of the device and the threaded members are expeditiously connected or disconnected.
Claims8
A device for use with two wrenches for facilitating connection and disconnection of threaded members comprising, in combination, an elongate member defining an axis, first means secured to said member for slidingly receiving a handle of a first wrench along an axis substantially normal to said elongate member axis, first collar means for slidable positioning about said elongate member and a second collar means secured to said first collar means for engaging a handle of a wrench.
A wrench coupling device comprising, in combination, an elongate member defining an axis and a region of substantially constant diameter, said elongate member having a first collar secured thereto, said first collar defining an opening having an axis, said member axis and said collar axis being disposed substantially perpendicularly to one another, and a second collar having mounting means for slidably positioning said second collar on said region of substantially constant diameter of said elongate member, said mounting means defining an axis substantially coincident with said axis of said elongate member, said second collar defining an opening having an axis disposed substantially perpendicularly to said axis of said mounting means.
