Abstract
A combination tool usable to couple between land vehicles or other objects is described, that is also usable to impact posts, such when constructing a fence. The combination tool can include a main body with a first end configured to impact a post, and a second end configured for coupling to a vehicle or other object. A restrainer pin detachably connected to the main body is usable to secure the combination tool to the object. The restrainer pin can also be used to engage a fence clip or similar flexible member, such as when constructing a fence. Additionally, the combination tool can include a ball hitch or similar protrusion for engagement with a tow vehicle or other object, and a platform or similar member for facilitating a user's access to the vehicles or other objects to which the combination tool is secured.
Claims13
A combination tool useable to form a fence, the tool comprising:
- a main body having a first end and a second end, wherein the main body comprises an orifice extending laterally therethrough, wherein the first end of the main body is configured to removably attach to a first movable object, and the second end of the main body is configured to removably attach to a second movable object;
- a restrainer pin configured for insertion into the orifice, wherein the restrainer pin has a longitudinal opening at a first end of the restrainer pin, wherein the longitudinal opening extends longitudinally through at least a portion of the restrainer pin, wherein the longitudinal opening is adapted to receive an end of a flexible member so that movement of the restrainer pin while the flexible member is received therein moves the flexible member.
A restrainer pin usable to form a fence, the restrainer pin comprising:
- an elongated body, having a first segment and a second segment,
- wherein the first segment comprises a bore extending longitudinally through at least a portion of the first segment, wherein the bore is configured to engage an end of a flexible member;
- and
- wherein the second segment is disposed at an angle relative to the first segment, wherein the second segment has a thickness sufficient to provide coupling between a hitch and a vehicle.
