Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wrench tools, in particular to a tap wrench. Background Art

[0002] Benchwork is the oldest metal processing technology in mechanical manufacturing, and tapping is a basic operating skill in benchwork. Taps are used to process small-sized internal threads, and dies are used to process small-sized external threads. The auxiliary tool used to clamp the tap for internal thread processing is the tap wrench, and the auxiliary tool used to clamp the die for external bolt processing is the die wrench.

[0003] At present, a conventional tap wrench includes a fixed block, a movable block and two handles, wherein the movable block is connected to one of the handles, and the movable block is adjusted by the handle to achieve the clamping function. The problems with this structure are: 1. Only one handle can be removed during work, which cannot be used in a narrow space. In addition, since one handle cannot be removed, the product packaging volume is large, which increases packaging costs; 2. The adjustment handle and movable block of the wrench are complex to process, and the product assembly is cumbersome; 3. The clamping range of the wrench is limited, and the movable slider cannot be quickly replaced to adjust the clamping range; 4. The wrench does not have a level calibrator to assist in aligning the workpiece level, which can easily cause the thread to tilt or even the tap to break.

[0004] In addition, the handles of existing tap and die wrenches are basically connected by threads, which makes disassembly and assembly inconvenient, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art and provide a tap wrench. The existing tap wrench changes the connection structure in which the handle drives the movable claw block, which is not connected to the handle, so that the handles at both ends of the wrench can be removed at the same time, and it can be used in a small space. In addition, the handles of the tap and die wrench adopt a plug-in connection structure, which can achieve quick disassembly and assembly, thereby improving efficiency.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:

[0007] A tap wrench includes a tap tumbler frame, handles at both ends of the frame, a fixed jaw block within the frame, a movable jaw block, and an adjustment screw. An adjustment screw hole is provided on the end surface of the tap tumbler frame opposite the fixed jaw block. The screw shaft of the adjustment screw is disposed within the adjustment screw hole, with the head of the adjustment screw abutting against the tail of the movable jaw block. Turning the adjustment screw changes the length of the screw shaft extending out of the adjustment screw hole, thereby adjusting the clamping range of the adjustment screw and achieving its clamping function.

[0008] Preferably, the handle is a detachable structure, and handle holes are provided at both ends of the tap reamer handle frame. The handle holes are internal thread structures, and corresponding threads are provided at the ends of the handle.

[0009] Preferably, the adjusting screw hole and the handle hole at one end thereof are connected structures of the same size and are formed in one step, thereby simplifying the processing steps.

[0010] Preferably, the handle is a detachable structure, with handle holes provided at both ends of the tap reamer frame. The inner walls of the handle holes are smooth and contain at least two ball screw holes I connected to the handle holes, each containing a ball screw. The handle ends are provided with corresponding steel ball ring grooves. The ball screw is a derivative of the set screw, consisting of a spring, a steel ball, and a housing. After the handle is installed, the steel ball is forced by the spring to fall into the steel ball ring groove, securing the handle. For disassembly, the handle can be pulled outward. Furthermore, tightening the ball screw inward will firmly support the handle, preventing it from slipping out during use if force is applied.

[0011] Preferably, the tap tumbler frame and the fixed claw block are integrally formed, which reduces the number of parts and simplifies the processing and assembly process.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the tap reamer frame is provided with a level installation hole, in which a level is installed. The surface of the tap reamer frame has enough space to install the level to assist in leveling.

[0013] Preferably, a limit post is provided in the middle of the head of the adjusting screw, and a limit post hole is provided at the tail of the movable claw block, wherein the diameter of the limit post is smaller than the diameter of the limit post hole. The movable claw block is sleeved on the limit post to prevent the movable claw block from falling off, and when the adjusting screw is rotated, the limit post rotates freely within the limit post hole synchronously.

[0014] Preferably, the movable claw block is provided with a fixing screw hole connected to the limiting post hole, or the movable claw block is provided with two fixing screw holes symmetrically distributed on the surface thereof and connected to the limiting post hole, wherein fixing screws are disposed in the fixing screw holes. Tightening the fixing screws secures the movable claw block to the adjusting screw, preventing the adjusting screw from rotating. When adjustment is required, the fixing screws can be tightened.

[0015] Preferably, the side wall of the limiting column is provided with a ring groove, and after tightening the fixing screw, the end thereof falls into the ring groove, thereby limiting the axial movement of the movable claw block.

[0016] Preferably, the head of the adjusting screw is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0017] A die wrench comprises a die wrench frame and handles at both ends of the frame. The handles are detachable and have handle holes at both ends. The handle holes have smooth inner walls and are provided with at least two ball screw holes II communicating with the handle holes. Ball screws are installed within these holes, and corresponding steel ball ring grooves are provided at the end of the handle. The ball screw is a derivative of the set screw and consists of a spring, a steel ball, and a housing. After the handle is installed, the steel ball is forced by the spring to fall into the steel ball ring groove, securing the handle. To remove, the handle can be pulled outward.

[0018] The advantages of the utility model are: 1. It changes the connection structure of the existing tap wrench in which the handle drives the movable claw block, which is not connected to the handle, so that the handles at both ends of the wrench can be removed at the same time, can be used in a small space, and at the same time reduces the product packaging volume and reduces the packaging cost.

[0019] 2. The tap wrench is easy to process, especially the handle and movable block are simple and quick to process and assemble.

[0020] 3. The tap wrench can quickly replace movable jaws of different sizes to achieve the clamping function of taps of different specifications.

[0021] 4. The tap wrench is equipped with a level calibrator to help level the workpiece, avoiding thread tilt or even tap breakage.

[0022] 5. The handles of the tap and die wrenches adopt a plug-in connection structure, which enables quick disassembly and assembly, improving efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
