Abstract

A tool holding frame has a track base, a positioning board, and at least one positioning mount. The positioning board is disposed on the track base and has a positioning segment. The first positioning segment has multiple positioning blocks having curved side edges and multiple positioning portions. The at least one positioning mount is slidably and rotatably mounted on the track base. Each positioning mount has an annular positioning flange and a second positioning segment. The second positioning segment is selectively engaged with two of the positioning portions.

Claims (52)

1. A tool holding frame comprising:

a track base being an elongated seat and having

two sliding channels defined respectively in two sides of the track base and each having an opening, and the openings of the two sliding channels facing each other;

a positioning board disposed on the track base and having

a top surface;

a first positioning segment formed on the top surface of the positioning board and comprising

multiple positioning blocks formed on and protruding from the top surface of the positioning board and arranged in a line at spaced intervals to define multiple positioning recesses respectively between the positioning blocks, and each positioning block having two curved side edges formed on two opposite sides of the positioning block; and

multiple positioning portions formed on and protruding from the top surface of the positioning board and held respectively in the positioning recesses; and

at least one positioning mount slidably and rotatably mounted on the track base, and each one of the at least one positioning mount having

a sliding seat slidably and rotatably mounted in the sliding channels and having

a bottom;

a top; and

an annular positioning flange formed on and protruding downwardly from the bottom of the sliding seat, selectively engaged with two of the positioning recesses in the positioning board; and

a second positioning segment formed on a bottom of the positioning flange and selectively engaged with two positioning portions held in the two positioning recesses engaged with the positioning flange; and

an extending element formed on and protruding upwardly from the top of the sliding seat.

2. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the annular positioning flange of each one of the at least one positioning mount has

an inner surface selectively abutting two of the curved side edges of at least one of the positioning blocks located between the two positioning recesses engaged with the annular positioning flange; and

an outer surface selectively abutting two of the curves side edges of the positioning blocks which are adjacent to the positioning recesses engaged with the annular positioning flange.

3. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein

the track base comprises

a bottom panel being elongated and having two sides; and

two rails disposed respectively on the two sides of the bottom panel;

the two sliding channels are defined respectively in the rails;

each rail of the track base further has a positioning channel located below the sliding channel of the rail and having an opening;

the openings of the positioning channels of the two rails face each other; and

the positioning board is mounted in the positioning channels in the rails of the track base.

4. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 3 , wherein

the positioning board further comprises

a bottom surface;

two rail bars formed on and protruding outwardly from the bottom surface of the positioning board respectively at two opposite sides of the positioning board and mounted respectively in the positioning channels of the rails of the track base; and

a recess formed in the bottom surface of the positioning board at a middle of the positioning board, the recess being parallel with the opposite sides of the positioning board to form a space between the middle of the positioning board and the top surface of the bottom panel.

5. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 4 , wherein each positioning portion of the first positioning segment is a rib and has two ends connected respectively with two of the curved side edges of adjacent two of the positioning blocks.

6. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the second positioning segment of each one of the at least one positioning mount comprises multiple teeth formed on and protruding from the bottom of the positioning flange of the positioning mount and arranged annularly at spaced intervals.

7. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

the track base comprises

a bottom panel being elongated and having two sides; and

two rails disposed respectively on the two sides of the bottom panel;

the two sliding channels are defined respectively in the rails;

each rail of the track base further has a positioning channel located below the sliding channel of the rail and having an opening;

the openings of the positioning channels of the two rails face each other; and

the positioning board is mounted in the positioning channels in the rails of the track base.

8. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 7 , wherein

the positioning board further comprises

a bottom surface;

two rail bars formed on and protruding outwardly from the bottom surface of the positioning board respectively at two opposite sides of the positioning board and mounted respectively in the positioning channels of the rails of the track base; and

a recess formed in the bottom surface of the positioning board at a middle of the positioning board, the recess being parallel with the opposite sides of the positioning board to form a space between the middle of the positioning board and the top surface of the bottom panel.

9. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 8 , wherein each positioning portion of the first positioning segment is a rib and has two ends connected respectively with two of the curved side edges of adjacent two of the positioning blocks.

10. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the second positioning segment of each one of the at least one positioning mount comprises multiple teeth formed on and protruding from the bottom of the positioning flange of the positioning mount and arranged annularly at spaced intervals.

11. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein each positioning portion of the first positioning segment is a rib and has two ends connected respectively with two of the curved side edges of adjacent two of the positioning blocks.

12. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the second positioning segment of each one of the at least one positioning mount comprises multiple teeth formed on and protruding from the bottom of the positioning flange of the positioning mount and arranged annularly at spaced intervals.

13. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each positioning portion of the first positioning segment is a rib and has two ends connected respectively with two of the curved side edges of adjacent two of the positioning blocks.

14. The tool holding frame as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the second positioning segment of each one of the at least one positioning mount comprises multiple teeth formed on and protruding from the bottom of the positioning flange of the positioning mount and arranged annularly at spaced intervals.
