Screw/nut/bolt driver for pneumatic, impact, hand crank or other use having an insertable magnet in the head to hold/keep screw/nut/bolt or specialized tips attached to driver but inserted by screwing it in, as it is threaded and inside of driver head (below screw/nut/bolt receiving area), is identically threaded to receive it
View Patent ↗The unique aspect of this invention is the fact that the magnet insert screws into the driver shaft head rather than being pressed in under pressure. The best design for this invention includes self-locking threads as well and the combination of using a threaded installation of the magnet insert and the locking threads is an additional unique attribute to this invention. This unique a threaded install attribute helps prevent the magnet insert from coming out under impact pressure and even if it does it allows it to be reinserted using a screwing mechanism and when reinserted will remain in place unlike existing press-in products. A third unique attribute of this invention is the depression at the top of the magnet insert designed to receive a screwing tools such as a flat head or Philips screw driver, hex, Allen, etc., making it possible to easily reinsert the magnet insert and tighten it firmly in place.
1. A tool driver comprising:
a shaft, and
a bottom designed to fit into a pneumatic, impact, or hand crank tool; and
a head designed to receive a screw, nut, bolt or specialized tip; and
a center along a diameter of the tool head; and
an axis extends from the bottom to the head of the tool driver through said center; and
an upper opening centered on said axis in said head shaped to receive said screw, nut, bolt or specialized tip; and
a lower opening centered on the axis, between the bottom and the upper opening; and
a magnet insert casing received into said lower opening, designed to receive a magnet insert, said magnet insert casing with threads on an outer circumferential wall
designed to match threads on an inner circumferential wall of said lower opening.
2. The tool driver of claim 1 , wherein said magnet insert comprises an inner magnetic core; and when magnet insert is within said insert casing, all sides of said magnet insert are covered except for a top surface of the magnet insert.
3. The tool driver of claim 1 , wherein said magnet insert casing comprises a depression in a top of said magnet insert casing designed to receive a turning tool to and remove or turn and install said magnet insert.
