Abstract:
1. An insulating ratchet wrench comprising: a wrench body, a ratchet assembly, a main insulator and a reverse knob; the wrench body having a handle defined at one end thereof and a head defined at another end thereof; the ratchet assembly assembled in the head, the ratchet assembly having a driving part and a reverse driving member protruded from two sides of the head respectively; wherein the reverse driving member includes a central shaft and an eccentric pin in parallel with the central shaft, and the reverse driving member cooperates with the reverse knob in controlling a rotating direction of the ratchet assembly; the wrench body covered with the main insulator, the main insulator having a first insulating ring formed at one end thereof, the reverse driving member passing through the first insulating ring, the main insulator having a second insulating ring formed at another end thereof; the driving part passing through the second insulating ring, a distance being defined between the second insulating ring and the driving part, the first insulating ring having a main annular wall and a sub annular wall annularly defined on a bottom surface thereof; and the reverse knob assembled with the reverse driving member and the first insulating ring enclosed by the reverse knob, the reverse knob having a main annular groove defined therein, the main annular groove corresponding to the main annular wall, the reverse knob having a sub annular groove defined therein, the sub annular groove corresponding to the sub annular wall, the main annular groove and the sub annular groove of the reverse knob slidaly sleeving onto the main annular wall and the sub annular wall respectively; wherein the reverse knob is assembled with the main insulator by the main annular groove and the sub annular groove sleeving onto the main annular wall and the sub annular wall respectively so as to form an overlapping structure between the ratchet assembly and the reverse knob; and wherein the reverse knob further defines a central hole for insertion of the central shaft of the reverse driving member, and an eccentric hole for insertion of the eccentric pin of the reverse driving member so that rotation of the reverse knob drives the reverse driving member to rotate, thereby controlling the rotating direction of the ratchet assembly.
