Abstract
An office tool assembly has a tool and a hanging cap. The tool is selectively inserted into and held in the hanging cap. A protrusion is moveably mounted on the tool to engage with a through hole defined in the cap to keep the tool from falling out of the hanging cap. A transverse hole is defined in the hanging cap through which a string extends, such that the tool assembly can be hung around a person's neck. Accordingly, a user can conveniently and safely carry the tool assembly to any desired place for use.
