Abstract

A tool holder is outfitted with one or more rotatable elements that allow a tool to be smoothly removed from the tool holder. The rotatable elements may rotate on an axis defined by the inner edge of the tool holding area and may be cylindrical, spherical, or any other shape. Rather than dragging on a fixed element of the tool holder, a tool may ride against a wheel, ball, or other rotatable element.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] Tool holders, such as hammer loops and other devices, are used by tradesmen every day in countless construction and maintenance activities. A common type of tool holder is one that mounts on a tradesman's belt and has a loop to receive a handle of a tool. For various reasons, a tool may be difficult for the tradesman to quickly remove the tool from the holder. For example, the tool may have a feature on the tool that catches the tool holder during removal, or the surface of the tool may not slide smoothly against the tool holder. This can be especially true for rubber handled devices that may be quite sticky. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0002] A tool holder is outfitted with one or more rotatable elements that allow a tool to be smoothly removed from the tool holder. The rotatable elements may rotate on an axis defined by the inner edge of the tool holding area and may be cylindrical, spherical, or any other shape. Rather than dragging on a fixed elem...
