Abstract:
1. A replaceable and rotatable tool with a function of measuring twisting forces comprising: a tool body; a driving portion formed at one end of the tool body; the driving portion including a pivotal unit and an engaging unit; one end of the pivotal unit being secured to the tool body and another end thereof being pivotally installed with one end of the engaging unit so that the engaging unit is rotatable along a pivotal shaft; another end of the engaging unit being formed with a rectangular opening for movably installing various driving head; wherein a positioning unit is installed within the opening; the positioning unit is formed by a steel ball and a spring for driving the driving head; wherein the tool body has a strain gage installed therein for displaying twisting forces as the tool drives a screw; wherein the pivotal unit has two lateral sides; an upper portion of each lateral side is formed with one flat surface and two arcuate surfaces at two sides of the flat surface for controlling the slope of the engaging unit with respect to the axis of the handle; wherein the angle of the engaging unit with respect to the axis of the handle is retained within a range of 15 degrees in each of two rotating directions; and wherein each of the two lateral sides of the pivotal unit is formed with at least one pivotal hole; a distal end of the engaging unit having a through hole corresponding to the pivotal hole of the pivotal unit; a pivotal shaft passing through the pivotal hole and the through hole so as to fix the engaging unit to the pivotal unit.
