The tool works as a normal socket wrench as well as a linear torque transmitter through a secondary drive on the bottom of the wrench which transmits the torque from the bottom of the wrench to the socket head through the internal gear system without having to move the wrench itself. This tool will allow mechanics and machine repair professionals to remove difficult to access bolts more efficiently and in turn save them time and money. The gear system is designed and tested to transmit up to 120 foot pounds of torque which accounts for the majority of bolt removal tasks. A survey done on both people who work on automobiles as well as people who occasionally use a wrench for simple repairs will give a diverse input as to the practicality and ease of use of this custom tool. The results indicate the tool is definitely useful in special cases and can save adequate time in certain situations Publisher: ScholarWorks@CWU Year: 2013 OAI identifier: oai:digitalcommons.cwu.edu:source-1181 Provided by: ScholarWorks at Central Washington University Download PDF: Sorry, we are unable to provide the full text but you may find it at the following location(s): https://digitalcommons.cwu.edu...
