Bitclip

Abstract

Traditionally, a holder (B) was used to temporarily fasten a wide variety of general-purpose bits (A). However, wear and dirt accumulation on the moving parts of this holder (B) were unavoidable, and malfunctions or failures could occasionally occur during operation, especially in harsh environments, potentially leading to decreased work efficiency and safety issues. [Solution] This invention provides a novel bit clip C that holds a general-purpose bit (A) in a bent spring wire shape and enables quick attachment and detachment by applying the principle of leverage. Furthermore, it reduces the risk of malfunction by eliminating moving parts and is characterized by its intuitive usability.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a driver bit holder for tools.

Background Art

[0002] Conventional holders utilize the holding mechanisms shown in Patent Documents 1 and 2 to enable temporary holding. This makes it possible to group multiple holders in a key holder, improving the removal and attachment operations of multiple general-purpose bits suitable for work. Also, the user could quickly replace various necessary general-purpose bits according to the work content, significantly improving work efficiency. Furthermore, this design was also optimal for organizing and tidying up general-purpose bits.

[0003] However, since conventional holders are basically different in material from the holding mechanism of the literature, wear of the movable parts and accumulation of dirt rarely cause malfunctions during work or poor operation during removal and attachment, which may lead to confusion and danger.

[0004] Also, conventional holders have a pull-out method and a push-out method. If these are used incorrectly, the operation method is reversed, which may cause the user to become confused during work and pose a danger.

[0005] The holder of the present invention was devised with a design that eliminates movable parts. Since there are no movable parts, it can be intuitively operated and, once accustomed, can also be operated with one hand. Also, it can be used without removing gloves even in winter or cold regions, improving operability. Furthermore, it significantly reduces the risk of malfunction and can maintain stable performance over the long term, thus contributing to an improvement in work efficiency.

[0007] The problem that this invention aims to solve is that, because the material of the holding mechanism is fundamentally different from that of the literature (※for this reason※), and because there are moving parts, malfunctions or operational problems during attachment and detachment may occasionally occur during work, posing a risk. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] This design features a spring-loaded structure with no moving parts, ensuring secure retention of general-purpose bits and enabling reliable attachment and detachment through the application of the lever principle. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] This invention utilizes spring material and is made of high-carbon steel, resulting in high durability. Furthermore, its simple structure and shape eliminate moving parts, significantly reducing the risk of malfunctions and failures. Additionally, users are required to perform no maintenance, allowing for long-term, worry-free use of a highly reliable, general-purpose bit holder. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0010] [Figure 1] The conventional holder A, general-purpose bits B (b1, b2, b3), and bit clip holding state C are shown. [Figure 2] Reference numerals 1 to 13 indicate the present invention. [Figure 3] The diagram shows a method for attaching and detaching the wall mounting bracket of the present invention (reference numerals 14 to 16). [Figure 4] Details of the 12 symmetrical R-bend portions and 8 symmetrical convex portions of the present invention are shown. [Figure 5] The front view, side view, oblique view, top view, and rear view of the bit clip of the present invention are shown. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0011] As shown in Figure 3, the bit clip of the present invention uses spring material and has a structure that applies the principle of leverage. By inserting the general-purpose bit (1) into (4) and moving the recess of (2) along the guide rail, secure fixing and quick removal can be achieved. Furthermore, the strength of the holding force can be widely adjusted by selecting the thickness and shape of the spring wire.

[0012] The bit clip of the present invention provides rapid attachment and detachment of general-purpose bits and stable working performance over long periods. Its simple structure allows for reduced manufacturing costs, and it is maintenance-free, providing a highly reliable tool bit holder. [Examples]

[0013] Insert 1 from the back into 4 (dotted line insertion opening) until it reaches the recess of 2. Slide 2 in the direction of 5 (symmetrical rail entrance guide). Lowering 3 (lever handle side) will cause it to pass through 6 (symmetrical rail passing point) and stop at 7 (symmetrical lever fulcrum entrance / exit). Lowering 3 further will cause 1 and 6 to make diagonal contact, preventing 3 from returning. 7 and 2 act as fulcrums for each other, and as the force increases in the direction of the force application point of 3, 8 (symmetrical convex part: maximum holding part) will spread outwards, 2 will pass 9 (symmetrical lever fulcrum entrance / exit) in the direction of the force application point, and the attachment will be completed at 10 (temporary fixing part). To release, move 3 in the opposite direction, 1 will hit 11 (pushing part), 2 will slide in the release direction, and the release will be complete once it passes 8. [Industrial applicability]

[0014] The bit clip of the present invention is widely available in the tool industry and contributes to improved work efficiency and safety. [Explanation of symbols]
