Screw driver handle

A tool handle includes a base and a cap pivotally coupled together. The base includes a flange and two punctures and a latch formed in one side edge for engaging with a groove and two projections and an ear of the cap such that the cap may be solidly secured to the base. The base includes a number of holes and the cap includes a number of cavities for partially receiving tool bits and for allowing the tool bits to be easily disengaged from the base. The base includes a chamber and the cap includes a space for engaging with the tool bits.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
1. Field of the Invention 
The present invention relates to a handle, and more particularly to a screw 
driver handle. 
2. Description of the Prior Art 
Typical screw driver handles comprise a solid configuration having no space 
provided for receiving other tool bits therein. In order to improve this, 
a hollow chamber is formed and provided in the handle for receiving 
various kinds of screw driver bits. However, in order to find a correct 
screw driver bit, the user have to pour all of the screw driver bits out 
of the handle. This is inconvenient. 
The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the 
afore-described disadvantages of the conventional screw driver handles. 
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a screw driver 
handle which includes various kinds of cavities for receiving various 
kinds of tool bits and for allowing the tool bits to be easily found. 
In accordance with one aspect of the invention, there is provided a tool 
handle comprising a base and 
Further objectives and advantages of the present invention will become 
apparent from a careful reading of a detailed description provided 
hereinbelow, with appropriate reference to accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
A similar screw driver handle is filed in a copending U.S. patent 
application Ser. No. 08/678,561, filed on Jul. 9, 1996. The co-pending 
U.S. patent application is taken as a reference of the present invention. 
Referring to the drawings, and initially to FIGS. 1 and 2, a screw driver 
handle in accordance with the present invention comprises a base 30 and a 
cap 40 pivotally coupled together at a folding line or live hinge 50. The 
base 30 includes a side edge opposite to the folding line 50 and having a 
flange 31 extended upward and having two punctures 32. A latch 33 is 
extended outward from the side edge of the base 30. The cap 40 includes a 
side edge corresponding to that of the base 30 and opposite to the folding 
line 50 and having a groove 41 for engaging with the flange 31 (FIG. 3) 
and having two projections 42 for engaging with the punctures 32 and 
having an ear 43 which includes an orifice 431 for engaging with the latch 
33 (FIG. 3) and for securing the cap 40 to the base 30. The cap 40 may 
thus be solidly secured to the base 30 by the engagement between the 
projections 42 and the punctures 32, and by the engagement between the 
flange 31 and the groove 41, and by the engagement between the latch 33 
and the orifice 431 of the ear 43. 
The base 30 includes a number of holes 36 of smaller size for partially 
receiving the screw driver bits 61 and includes a chamber 35. The cap 40 
includes a number of cavities 46 of larger size for partially receiving 
the sockets 62 and includes a space 44. The sockets 62 and the screw 
driver bits 61 include the lower portion engaged in the cavities 46 and 
the holes 36 respectively. The upper portions of the sockets 62 and the 
screw driver bits 61 are extended outward of the cavities 46 and the holes 
36 such that the user may easily fetch the sockets 62 and the screw driver 
bits 61. The upper portions of the sockets 62 and the screw driver bits 61 
may be engaged in the chamber 35 and in the space 44 when the cap 40 is 
secured to the base, best shown in FIG. 3. 
It is to be noted that various kinds of sockets and/or screw driver bits 
and/or other tool bits may be received in the cavities 46 of the cap 40 
and/or the holes 36 of the base 30. In addition, the upper portions of the 
sockets 62 and of the screw driver bits 61 are extended upward beyond the 
cap 40 and the base 30 such that the sockets 62 and the screw driver bits 
61 may be easily disengaged from the cap 40 and the base 30. It is further 
to be noted that the handle may be used for storing sockets and couplers 
for wrenches in addition to the screw driver bits. 
Accordingly, the handle in accordance with the present invention includes a 
cap that may be solidly secured to the base and includes a number of 
cavities and holes formed in the base for receiving various kinds of the 
tool bits which may be easily disengaged from the base. 
Although this invention has been described with a certain degree of 
particularity, it is to be understood that the present disclosure has been 
made by way of example only and that numerous changes in the detailed 
construction and the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted 
to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as 
hereinafter claimed.
