Patent ID: 11213935

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a ratchetable wrench, with, in some embodiments the ability to interchange wrench heads for working with various styles of rotatable fittings. The disclosed ratchetable wrench includes a two-pawl ratchet mechanism for use with an open-ended wrench head. The two-pawl mechanism allows the wrench head to be freely rotatable relative the wrench body when the pawls are in a user-selected tooth-disengaged position such that the pawls are disengaged from teeth located about the periphery of an installed cogged wrench head and rotatable only in one direction relative the wrench body when the pawls are in a tooth-engaged position. A plurality of interchangeable wrench heads for use with an embodiment of the ratchetable wrench and a method of the interchanging various wrench heads are also disclosed herein.
