[0022] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0023] Adjustable wrenches are commonly used tools for disassembling and assembling bathroom products. In related technologies, bathroom products often feature smooth surface treatments for aesthetic purposes, such as precision polishing, electroplating, special coatings, or the use of relatively soft materials like copper or aluminum alloys. When adjusting wrenches are used to disassemble and assemble bathroom products, the metal wrench comes into direct contact with the product. Tightening the wrench during these processes can cause permanent damage to the surface, such as scratches, dents, and damage to the plating. This damage not only severely affects the final aesthetic appearance of the bathroom product, reducing the user's installation experience and perceived value, but in extreme cases, it can even damage the surface anti-corrosion layer, leading to substrate corrosion and shortening the product's lifespan.

[0024] In view of this, this application provides a plastic plate sleeve that is fitted onto the fixed jaw and the movable jaw to prevent the metal fixed jaw and the movable jaw from coming into direct contact with the bathroom products, thereby reducing the possibility of the bathroom products being scratched.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. Example 1

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the wrench sleeve 200 provided in this embodiment is made of plastic. The wrench sleeve 200 includes a first component 210, a second component 220, and a connecting strap 230 connecting the first component 210 and the second component 220. The first component 210 is detachably fitted onto the fixed jaw 120 of the adjustable wrench 100, and the second component 220 is detachably fitted onto the movable jaw 130 of the adjustable wrench 100. That is, the first component 210, made of plastic, is fitted onto the fixed jaw 120, and the second component 220, made of plastic, is fitted onto the movable jaw. Therefore, when using the adjustable wrench 100 to disassemble or assemble products such as bathroom products that are susceptible to scratches, the metal fixed jaw 120 and movable jaw 130 will not come into direct contact with the products, thereby reducing the possibility of the products being scratched during disassembly or assembly. In addition, the connecting strap 230 connects the first kit 210 and the second kit 220, which can reduce the possibility of the first kit 210 and the second kit 220 being lost, and can avoid the embarrassment of losing only one of the first kit 210 and the second kit 220.

[0027] For example, in this embodiment, the material of the plate sleeve 200 is thermoplastic rubber material (TPR), thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc.

[0028] In some embodiments of this application, the first assembly 210 has a perforation 240 on at least one side of the fixed jaw 120 in the thickness direction, and / or the second assembly 220 has a perforation 240 on at least one side of the movable jaw 130 in the thickness direction. For example, as... Figure 2 As shown, the first kit 210 has hollow holes 240 on both sides of the thickness direction of the fixed jaw 120, and the second kit 220 has hollow holes 240 on both sides of the thickness direction of the movable jaw 130. The hollow holes 240 can reduce the amount of material used and reduce the production cost of the plate mouth sleeve 200 without affecting the use of the plate mouth sleeve 200.

[0029] This embodiment also provides an adjustable wrench 100 set, which includes an adjustable wrench 100 and a wrench end sleeve 200 from any of the above-described embodiments. The beneficial effects of the adjustable wrench 100 set provided in this embodiment are the same as those of the wrench end sleeve 200 described above, and will not be repeated here. Example 2

[0030] The plate sleeve 200 provided in this embodiment is basically the same as the plate sleeve 200 provided in Embodiment 1, except that: Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the connecting strap 230 of the wrench sleeve 200 provided in this embodiment includes a first connecting strap 231, a second connecting strap 232 and a third kit 233. One end of the first connecting strap 231 is connected to the first kit 210 and the other end is connected to the third kit 233. One end of the second connecting strap 232 is connected to the second kit 220 and the other end is connected to the third kit 233. The third kit 233 is detachably fitted onto the handle 110 of the adjustable wrench 100. The third kit 233 increases the flexibility of the plate sleeve 200 in this embodiment and reduces the possibility of losing the plate sleeve 200. When disassembling or assembling bathroom products or other products that are susceptible to scratches, the user can put the first kit 210 and the second kit 220 on the fixed jaw 120 and the movable jaw 130 respectively. When the plate sleeve 200 is not needed to disassemble or assemble items, the first kit 210 and the second kit 220 can be removed. After removal, the first kit 210 is connected to the third kit 233 through the first connecting strap 231, and the second kit 220 is connected to the third kit 233 through the second connecting strap 232. The third kit 233 is fitted onto the handle 110 of the adjustable wrench 100. Thus, when the first kit 210 and the second kit 220 are removed, the first kit 210 and the second kit 220 are hung on the adjustable wrench 100 through the third kit 233, thereby increasing the flexibility of the plate sleeve 200 in this embodiment and reducing the possibility of losing the plate sleeve 200.

[0031] In some embodiments of this application, in order to ensure that the plate sleeve 200 fits snugly on the fixed jaw 120 and the movable jaw 130, the first connecting strap 231 is tightened when the plate sleeve 200 is installed on the adjustable wrench 100. The plastic material has a certain elasticity, and the first connecting strap 231 deforms slightly when the first kit 210 is installed, facilitating its installation. When the first kit 210 is in place, the first connecting strap 231 tightens, thereby ensuring that the first kit 210 fits more snugly on the fixed jaw 120. The adjustable wrench 100 slides back and forth along the groove. To prevent the second connecting strap 232 from interfering with the sliding of the adjustable wrench 100, the second connecting strap 232 has allowance for the movable jaw 130 to slide.

[0032] In some embodiments of this application, in order to ensure that the second assembly 220 fits snugly onto the movable jaw 130, the second assembly 220 is provided with a locking protrusion 221, which engages with the clearance groove 131 of the movable jaw 130. Typically, the movable jaw 130 of the adjustable wrench 100 has a clearance groove 131 (e.g., Figure 1 As shown), in this embodiment, the second kit 220 is provided with a locking protrusion 221 that cooperates with the relief groove 131. When the second kit 220 is fitted onto the movable jaw 130, the locking protrusion 221 is engaged with the relief groove 131 of the movable jaw 130. This setting makes the second kit 220 fit securely and snugly onto the movable jaw 130.

[0033] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second assembly 220 has a second receiving cavity 222, which is configured to receive the movable jaw 130. A locking protrusion 221 is provided at the opening end of the second receiving cavity 222, and is located on the side of the opening end closest to the first assembly 210. For example, there are two locking protrusions 221, each located at one end of the first side 223 of the opening end in the thickness direction of the movable jaw 130, with the first side 223 being the side of the opening end closest to the first assembly 210. This arrangement facilitates the locking of the locking protrusion 221.

[0034] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first assembly 210 has a first receiving cavity 211, which is configured to receive the fixed jaw 120. The first assembly 210 has opposing first side surfaces 212 and second side surfaces 213 in the thickness direction of the fixed jaw 120. At the opening end of the first receiving cavity 211, the first side surface 212 extends beyond the second side surface 213 along the depth direction of the receiving cavity, forming an outwardly extending first extension 214. The first connecting strap 231 is connected to the first extension 214. The fact that the second side surface 213 is shorter than the first side surface 212 facilitates the fitting operation of the first assembly 210. The second side surface 213 is tightened by the first connecting strap 231 to adhere more and better to the fixed jaw 120.

[0035] To facilitate the fitting of the second assembly 220, the second assembly 220 is provided with a second receiving cavity 222, which is configured to accommodate the movable jaw 130. The second assembly 220 has opposing third side 224 and fourth side 225 in the thickness direction of the movable jaw 130. At the opening end of the second receiving cavity 222, the third side 224 extends beyond the fourth side 225 along the depth direction of the receiving cavity, forming an outwardly extending second extension 226, to which the second connecting strap 232 is connected. Similarly, when the second assembly 220 is fitted onto the movable jaw 130, one side of the fourth side 225 is folded outward for fitting. The fact that the fourth side 225 is shorter than the third side 224 facilitates the fitting of the second assembly 220.

[0036] This embodiment also provides an adjustable wrench 100 set, which includes an adjustable wrench 100 and a wrench end sleeve 200 from any of the above-described embodiments. The beneficial effects of the adjustable wrench 100 set provided in this embodiment are the same as those of the wrench end sleeve 200 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0037] Other embodiments of this application will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this application that follow the general principles of this application and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The specification and examples are to be considered exemplary only, and the true scope and spirit of this application are indicated by the following claims.

[0038] It should be understood that this application is not limited to the precise structure described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The scope of this application is limited only by the appended claims.
