Description: |
| Abstract:
"A compact, foldable wrench having a head for engaging a threaded fastener to be rotated, and a handle pivotally attached to the head for use in a folded position substantially surrounding the head or an open position projecting radially from the head. The head may contain an opening to receive a fastener head (e.g., may be in the form of a box wrench), or alternatively, it may house a ratchet mechanism adapted to receive a drive socket or other fastener drive. In another embodiment, the head may house a screw driver."
The patent number appears together with D539,211 on a pocket size folding "POWERLINE" ratchet. WILLIAMS had become a subsidiary of Snap-On ca. 1993.
