Abstract

An end piece of a tool suspension rack is mounted onto a distal end of a metal rack of the tool suspension rack. The metal rack has at least one slide structure formed thereon for slidably multiple tool holders, wherein at least one distal end of the metal rack has an end piece mounted thereon. The end piece has a groove structure defined therein for allowing the tool holder passing through the end piece such that the tool holders is slidably mounted on the metal rack. The groove structure has a curved protrusion formed on an inner periphery thereof to prevent the tool holders, which are slidably mounted on the metal rack, from accidently detaching from the metal rack.

Claims (5)

1. A tool suspension rack apparatus comprising:

an elongated metal rack having at least one slide structure formed thereon, said at least one slide structure slidably receiving multiple tool holders; and

an end piece secured on a distal end of said elongated metal rack, said end piece having at least one groove structure defined therein, said at least one groove structure allowing the tool holders to pass therethrough, said at least one groove structure having a curved protrusion formed on an inner periphery thereof so as to prevent the tool holders from accidentally detaching from said elongated metal rack, said at least one slide structure having a pair of grooves defined in opposite sides thereof, said end piece having two indentations respectively defined in opposite sides of a T-shaped portion, each of said two indentations communicating with a corresponding groove of said pair of grooves of said at least one slide structure so as to slidably mount the multiple tool holders onto said elongated metal rack with said at least one slide structure, said curved protrusion peripherally formed on each of said two indentations and extending along each of said pair of grooves of said at least one slide structure.

2. The tool suspension rack apparatus of claim 1 , said elongated metal rack having a T-shaped groove longitudinally defined in a bottom thereof, said at least one slide structure having a through hole longitudinally defined therein, said end piece having a first tenon and a second tenon respectively inserted into said T-shaped groove and said through hole so as to prevent said end piece from accidentally detaching from said elongated metal rack.

3. The tool suspension rack apparatus of claim 2 , said first tenon and said second tenon being glued on said elongated metal rack so as to prevent said end piece from detaching from said elongated metal rack when removing one of the multiple tool holders.
