[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of manual tools, in particular to a detachable and foldable tuning wrench. Background Art
[0002] A wrench is a hand tool commonly used in daily life, mainly used for installing workpieces (e.g., bolts, screws). The ring spanner and ratchet spanner are two commonly used spanners.
[0003] Publication number CN219380508U discloses a ratchet wrench and hand tool assembly, including a wrench body having a receiving cavity and at least one opening, a ratchet head installed in the receiving cavity, and a switching assembly for switching the rotation direction of the ratchet. The ratchet wrench is an integrated structure with a large size. It is used for tuning the guzheng and is inconvenient to carry.
[0004] CN115026751A discloses a ratchet wrench. As can be seen from the figure, the sleeve joint and the sleeve are connected in a replaceable manner by means of a spring and a positioning ball arranged in the sleeve joint. When the sleeve is disassembled, it is necessary to overcome the spring pressure and push the positioning ball inward to achieve the displacement of the radial position of the positioning ball. Therefore, during the process of disassembling and assembling the sleeve, the ratchet is subjected to a large axial force. Since the axial force cannot be completely coaxial with the ratchet axis, the ratchet is prone to shaking in the radial direction, which increases the wear of the connection between the ratchet and the housing and affects the service life.

[0020] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the utility model includes a ratchet head 1 and a handle 11 connected to the tail end of the ratchet head 1. The ratchet head 1 includes a head shell 1.1. The head shell 1.1 is provided with a mounting cavity with an opening at the lower end. The lower end opening of the head shell 1.1 is detachably connected with an end cover 1.2 by bolts. A ratchet head 3 and a switching assembly 2 cooperating with the ratchet head 3 are rotatably installed in the mounting cavity. The switching assembly 2 is used to convert the rotation direction of the ratchet head 3. The ratchet head 3 includes a ratchet body 3.1 and a sleeve joint 3.2 extending axially from the ratchet body 3.1 and extending downwardly out of the head shell 1.1. The cross-section of the sleeve joint 3.2 is square. A sleeve 4 is replaceably sleeved on the sleeve joint 3.2. A sleeve hole 4.1 sleeved with the sleeve joint 3.2 is provided at the top center of the sleeve 4.
[0021] The top of the head shell 1.1 is provided with a circular hole 1.11 coaxially arranged with the ratchet head 2, and a limit ring 5 fixed to the ratchet body 2.1 is rotatably arranged in the circular hole 1.11. The ratchet head 2 is coaxially penetrated by a pressure rod 6, which slides with the ratchet head 2 and is connected by a key. The upper end of the pressure rod 3 protrudes upward from the limit ring 5 and slides with the limit ring 5, and the lower end of the pressure rod 6 extends downward into the sleeve joint 2.2. An annular flange 6.1 is provided on the upper part of the pressure rod 6 in the head shell 1.1, and the pressure rod 3 between the pressure rod 3 and the ratchet head 2 is penetrated by a spring 7 that pushes the annular flange 6.1 upward to fit on the limit ring 5. The spring 7 is positioned by a step arranged between the pressure rod 3 and the ratchet head 2. The top center of the ratchet head 2 is provided with an annular limit seat 3.3 which cooperates with the annular flange 6.1 on the pressure rod 3 to limit the downward displacement position of the pressure rod 3.
[0022] A circular hole 3.21 is provided on the side wall of the sleeve joint 3.2, and a positioning ball 8 is provided in the circular hole 3.21.
