Illumination structure used in flexible tool joint rod

Flexible tool post lighting structure

This creation relates to a flexible tool post, especially the designer of an innovative structural form of its lighting structure.

The flexible tool adaptor is a hand tool auxiliary accessory. Its structural features mainly include a flexible and deformable shaft. The two ends of the shaft are provided with assembly ends (for example, a hexagonal post, One with a hexagonal groove at one end), the flexible tool post can be used in combination with the active end of an existing hand tool, so that the active end of the hand tool can add a flexible extension section, And can respond to some bolts that must pass through a narrow, curved working space.

The above-mentioned flexible tool post has been found in practical experience. Because it is usually used in a narrow and curved working space environment, there are often poor and dark conditions, and if the user works alone, he wants to hold the flashlight at the same time. Obviously, the lighting is quite difficult and inconvenient, which makes it difficult for users to clearly observe the state of the end of the flexible tool when operating the flexible tool post; so how to develop a suitable for this type of flexible tool The design of the lighting structure of the post is an important issue for related industry.

The pre-patent case related to this creation is a design with a lighting device on the structure of the flexible pickup, such as the Taiwanese Patent Certificate No. M250765 "Flexible Pickup with Lighting Absorption", and Taiwan Patent Bulletin No. 375079 Patents such as "lighting extractor"; however, those disclosed in these conventional patents are still not tool posts, and their pickers are designed with grips, so the lighting device is quite spacious in design and can use the grips The internal space is assembled with the battery pack, conductive members, on-off switches, etc. of the lighting device, and the light emitting unit is set at the end of the flexible pickup. Therefore, the lighting structure design of this flexible pickup needs to be overcome. The subject is relatively simple, and the number of components used in its specific structure is large, and the limitation of volume is also small; in contrast, the flexible tool post targeted by this creation has an overall structure of only a slender simple strip type The structure does not specifically have a large grip portion. Therefore, if it is desired to add a lighting structure, it is obviously difficult to directly switch to the aforementioned lighting device structure assembly type of the flexible pickup.

Therefore, how the lighting structure of the flexible tool post should be designed to fit its narrow and unique structure, and develop an innovative structure with more ideal practicality, which is actually used by consumers, Relevant industry players must strive to develop breakthrough goals and directions.
