The wrench housing 10 is a detachable structure, which can facilitate the installation, maintenance and replacement of the working wheel 20 and the driving device 30 in the wrench housing 10.
[0033] The working wheel 20 is rotatably arranged in the wrench housing 10. The working wheel 20 is provided with a nut sleeve 21 along the axial direction, and the nut sleeve 21 extends into the sleeve 11. The driving device 30 is arranged in the wrench housing 10. The driving device 30 is in transmission connection with the working wheel 20 to drive the working wheel 20 to rotate.
[0034] The sleeve 11 and the nut sleeve 21 are provided with an arc-shaped notch 22 which is formed by cutting with the same chord. The arc-shaped notch 22 can facilitate the nut to enter the nut sleeve 21 from the outside. That is, the nut sleeve 21 and the sleeve 11 are cut downward at the same time with the same chord. The notch formed by the nut sleeve 21 and the sleeve 11 is the arc-shaped notch 22.
[0035] When the bolt of the guard rail needs to be disassembled, the wrench is inserted into the gap between the guard rail and the rail. During the process of continuously inserting downward, the nut of the guard rail bolt enters the nut sleeve 21 from the arc-shaped notch 22, so that the nut sleeve 21 is sleeved on the nut. Then, the wrench is moved towards the guard rail, so that the entire nut sleeve 21 is sleeved on the nut. Finally, the driving device 30 drives the working wheel 20 to rotate. The rotation of the working wheel 20 drives the nut sleeve 21 to rotate, so that the nut is disassembled or tightened.
[0036] In an embodiment, the driving device 30 comprises a power wheel 31 and a transmission structure 32, the power wheel 31 is rotatably installed in the wrench housing 10, the power wheel 31 is provided with a connecting port 312 for connecting with an external power source, and the transmission structure 32 is in transmission connection with the work wheel 20 and the power wheel 31. Among them, the power wheel 31 can be driven to rotate by the external power source, and the rotation of the power wheel 31 is transmitted to the work wheel 20 through the transmission structure 32 to realize the rotation of the work wheel 20, and then the nut sleeve 21 on the work wheel 20 realizes the tightening or disassembly of the nut.
[0037] In an embodiment, the external power source can be a motor or a hydraulic motor, or an electric wrench or an electric drill that can realize rotation, or even a rocker shaken by external personnel, as long as it can realize rotary motion. The shape of the connecting port 312 can be designed according to the specific design of the external power source, such as a triangle, a square, a pentagon, a hexagon, or an octagon. Of course, the shape of the connecting port 312 can also be circular, and at this time the external rotating shaft is in interference fit with the connecting port 312.
[0038] In an embodiment, the transmission structure 32 comprises a first transition gear 321 and a second transition gear 322, and the work wheel 20 and the power wheel 31 are also gears. The first transition gear 321 and the second transition gear 322 are rotatably installed in the wrench housing 10, and the first transition gear 321 and the second transition gear 322 are located between the power wheel 31 and the work wheel 20. The first transition gear 321 is in meshing connection with the power wheel 31 and the second transition gear 322, and the second transition gear 322 is in meshing connection with the work wheel 20.
[0039] Among them, the first transition gear 321 and the second transition gear 322 can adjust the rotation speed, and the higher rotation speed of the power wheel 31 can be reduced to realize the rotation speed of the work wheel 20 not too fast, avoiding the danger in the process of disassembling the guard rail bolt. Alternatively, the first transition gear 321 and the second transition gear 322 can increase the rotation speed of the work wheel 20 under the condition that the power wheel 31 is rotated by the rocker, so as to ensure the efficiency of disassembling the guard rail bolt.
[0040] In an embodiment, the wrench housing 10 is provided with a plurality of shaft holes 15, and the plurality of shaft holes 15 are arranged in sequence and at intervals from the front end to the rear end of the wrench housing 10. The power wheel 31, the first transition gear 321, the second transition gear 322 and the work wheel 20 are rotatably installed in the shaft holes 15 to realize the rotatable installation in the wrench housing 10.
[0041] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the transmission structure 32 can also adopt other ways that can realize rotary motion transmission, such as belt, chain or friction transmission.
[0042] In an embodiment, the nut sleeve 21 comprises opposite first and second end faces, the first end face is flush with the end face of the sleeve 11, and the second end face extends through the bottom wall of the wrench housing 10.
