Patent ID: 7426778

Claim:
A disassembling tool of a shock absorber, the shock absorber including i) a damper having a cylinder and a rod, the rod housed within the cylinder and projecting from said cylinder coaxially with said cylinder, and the rod moveable in a direction coaxial with the cylinder, movement of the rod being subject to a dampening force in a direction opposite the direction of the movement, and ii) a coil spring arranged around said damper and compressed between a proximal end of the cylinder and a stopper attached to a end of the rod, the disassembling tool comprising: an elongated base extending along a horizontal axis having a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, and a surface extending between the first end and the second end, a vertical axis extending through said base proximate to the second end and perpendicular to the surface; a spring hold member rotatably attached to said base on the surface at the vertical axis to pivot about the vertical axis, said spring hold member having i) an inserting portion configured to be inserted between coils of the coil spring of the shock absorber, and ii) a slit configured to receive the rod of the shock absorber; and a lever member having a bottom portion and an arm portion, the bottom portion rotatably attached at the first end of said base to pivot about a third axis through the base proximate to the first end and perpendicular to both the horizontal axis and the vertical axis, and the arm portion projecting from the bottom portion, wherein the arm portion has a distal length inclined in a direction toward the surface of said base running from the first end to the second end, and wherein the bottom portion is configured to connect to the cylinder of the shock absorber.
