Patent ID: 8695462

Claim:
An adjustable wrench comprising a head having a first-pin-side; a fixed jaw extending from the head; a slide defined by the head and positioned adjacent to the fixed jaw; a channel defined in the head, the channel extending through the head beneath the slide and the fixed jaw; a slot defined through the slide and in communication with the channel; a plurality of first-pin-holes defined in the first-pin-side, the plurality of first-pin-holes being in communication with the channel; a movable member configured to engage with the head, the movable member comprising a body configured to be slidably received by the head's channel and having a second-pin-side configured to abut the first-pin-side, wherein the second-pin-side defines a plurality of second-pin-holes, and wherein at least one of the second-pin-holes is alignable with at least one of the first-pin-holes, thereby creating a lock-channel, and a movable jaw positionable along the slide, wherein the movable jaw is attached to the body by a neck, the neck being configured to slide within the head's slot; a removable pin configured to extend into the lock-channel and thereby create a predetermined wrench opening between the fixed jaw and the movable jaw; and a flexible connector connected at its first end to the removable pin, wherein the flexible connector has a length and flexibility sufficient to allow the removable pin to be inserted into at least one of the first-pin-holes, and wherein the head's first-pin-side further defines a locking-pin-hole in communication with the channel, wherein the body's second-pin-side further defines a locking-pin-groove having a stop-wall, and wherein the wrench further includes a locking-pin connected to the second end of the flexible connector, the locking-pin configured to be secured in the locking-pin-hole and abut the locking-pin-groove, wherein the interface between the locking-pin and the stop-wall prevents the movable member's body from sliding out of the head's channel.
