Abstract
A tool having a flexible extension shaft, a first end and, a second end and capable of being bent about its axis. The tool transfers rotary motion from a device to an implement. Both of the ends may be capable of independently being bent about the axis. The shaft may include a male member and a female member for a kit. Further, one end of the tool may include a rotatable member having a first and second implement.
Claims10
A kit comprising:
- a flexible extension shaft capable of being bent about an axis and having a first end and a second end, the first end having a non-circular cross section, and the second end having a non-circular cross section;
- a male member having a first end with a configuration complementary to the second end of the flexible extension shaft, and a second end having a configuration different than the configuration of the first end of the male member;
- and,
- a female member having a first end with a configuration complementary to the configuration of the second end of the male member, and a second end having a configuration different than the configuration of the first end of the female member, wherein the second end of the female member is complementary to the non-circular cross section of the first end of the flexible extension shaft.
1 more element
A tool comprising:
- a first end adapted to cooperate with a chuck of a device for providing a rotary motion;
- an extension shaft bendable about an axis and capable of receiving the rotary motion;
- and a second end adapted to hold an implement for rotary driven motion;
- and,
- wherein both the first end and the send end are bendable about the axis, independently of the extension shaft.
2 more elements
A tool comprising:
