Puller tool

An adjustable puller comprising:

• a linkage head, having an axial threaded bore extending therethrough and containing generally coplaner clamp mounting platforms arranged at opposite sides of said bore;
• an elongate screw member, threaded to mate with said axial threaded bore of said linkage head and be adjustably positioned therethrough;
• first and second clamp members, arranged at opposite platforms of said linkage head and moveable in a common plane extending through about a center axis of said axial bore, toward and away from said center axis;
• first and second elongate gripping jaws mounted at opposite sides of said linkage head, respectively enabled to move in a plane in common with a plane of said clamp members, toward and away from said center axis, said gripping jaws extending along said axis of said axial bore and having a plurality of gripping elements having engaging ends arranged along a plane in defined alignment angled from about 1 to about 10 degrees from parallel to said center axis of said bore, arranged for engaging a component to be pulled;
• two sets of two opposing elongate linking members, pivotally mounted in spaced quadrilateral relationship among each clamp member and one of said gripping jaw and clamp mounting platform, and arranged to enable movement of said gripping jaw linearly along about said center axis of said axial bore in said common plane at a consistent defined angular relationship to the center axis.
