With a widely used type of adjustable wrench having one fixed jaw and another jaw adjustably displaceable thereto the adjustment of the displaceable jaw is effected by means of an adjusting screw arranged in the head of the handle of the wrench. Wrenches of this type have the drawback that the adjustment of the displaceable jaw Can be effected relatively slowly only, and that in addition the operating screw is often very difficult to operate due to inaccessibility when the wrench is applied for instance to certain machine parts and the like if displaceable jaw has to be readjusted for the purpose of adaptation. The object of the present invention is to eliminate these drawbacks. Thus the invention relates to an adjustable wrench having a fixed and a displaceable jaw and is characterized hi that the displaceable jaw is under the control of an operating element positively connected thereto, said operating element being driven by a quick adjusting device.
