Auxiliary illuminating structure for hand tool

An illuminating structure for a hand tool contains a lamp comprised of a light seat, an illuminating set, a cover member, and two magnetic members, wherein the light seat includes a receiving portion disposed on a top surface thereof to receive the illuminating set, and includes a plurality of holes mounted on two sides thereof and communicating with the receiving portion, includes a slot mounted on a bottom surface thereof to receive the magnetic members, and the slot includes two bores fixed on two sides thereof individually and communicating with the receiving portion to connect with the illuminating set; the illuminating set is used to make light; the cover member is covered to the receiving portion; the magnetic member is a magnet made of metal material to conduct electricity and fixed to the slot so as to contact with the electrode conducting piece of the illuminating set.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to an illuminating structure for a hand tool to attach hand tools with different size and turning on the bulbs by attaching the hand tool without pressing a button.

2. Description of the Prior

TW Pat. No. M309642 discloses a tool lamp is portable easily and includes a housing and a cover to cover related components of the tool lamp, and includes a retaining hole to insert a hand tool.

TW Publication No. 484492 discloses an auxiliary illuminating structure for a hand tool includes an illuminating device fitted to a hand tool to make light and including a housing, a bulb, a cell, a conducting member, and a button, wherein the housing includes a first receiving room to receive the cell, the conducting member, and the button, includes a second receiving room to receive the bulb and allowing to adjust the bulb at different angles, includes a positioning portion connected with the hand tool, the positioning portion includes a magnetic member fixed on an inner wall thereof to attach the illuminating device with the hand tools, such as a screw driver or a wrench together.

However, such conventional tool lamp and illuminating device can not attach the hand tools with different sizes, and can not turn on the bulbs by attaching the hand tool.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary object of the present invention is to provide an illuminating structure for a hand tool that can attach hand tools with different sizes by using the magnetic members.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an illuminating structure for a hand tool that can attach hand tool by using the magnetic members to conduct power source to illuminate the bulbs automatically without pressing a button.

An illuminating structure for a hand tool according to the present invention comprises a lamp comprised of a light seat, an illuminating set, a cover member, and two magnetic members, wherein

the light seat includes a receiving portion disposed on a top surface thereof to receive the illuminating set, and includes a plurality of holes mounted on two sides thereof and communicating with the receiving portion, includes a slot mounted on a bottom surface thereof to receive the magnetic members, and the slot includes two bores fixed on two sides thereof individually and communicating with the receiving portion to connect with the illuminating set;

the illuminating set is used to make light;

the cover member is covered to the receiving portion;

the magnetic member is a magnet made of metal material to conduct electricity and fixed to the slot so as to contact with the electrode conducting piece of the illuminating set.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring toFIGS. 1-5, an auxiliary illuminating structure for a hand tool according to the present invention includes a lamp1comprised of a light seat10, an illuminating set20, a cover member30, and two magnetic members40.

The light seat10is formed in an inverted C shape and includes a receiving portion11disposed on a top surface thereof to receive the illuminating set20, and includes a plurality of holes12mounted on two sides thereof and communicating with the receiving portion11, includes an inversely V-shaped slot13mounted on a bottom surface thereof to receive the magnetic members40, and the slot13includes two bores14fixed on two sides thereof individually and communicating with the receiving portion11to connect with the illuminating set20.

The illuminating set20includes a circuit board21having two bulbs22, a power source23, a number of electronic elements23, and two electrode conducting pieces25so that when the electrode conducting pieces25are conducted, the power source is transmitted to the bulbs22to make light. The illuminating set20is installed to the receiving portion11of the light seat10, and the bulbs22are fitted to the holes12respectively, the electrode conducting pieces25are fitted to the bores14individually to contact with the magnetic members40.

The cover member20is formed in an inverted C shape, and when the illuminating set20is placed to the receiving portion11of the light seat10, the cover member20is covered to the receiving portion11.

The magnetic member40is a magnet made of metal material, such as iron, cobalt, and nickel to conduct electricity and fixed to the slot13so as to contact with the electrode conducting piece25of the illuminating set20. When the magnetic members40attaches a hand tool, two electrodes are conducted so that the bulbs22make light, and when the magnetic members40disengage from the hand tool, the power source is turned off.

Thereby, the lamp1can attach hand tools with different sizes by using the magnetic members40to conduct power source to illuminate the bulbs simultaneously, and when the hand tool is removed, the power source is turned off automatically, thus obtaining operating convenience.
