FLEXIBLE HANDLE FOR PERCUSSIVE TOOL EMPLOYING IMPROVED SHAFT MEMBER

摘要

ABSTRACTA hammer handle is made of a spring strip formed into an ob-long closed figure and a synthetic resin handle body molded aroundthe frame. The closed figure is interrupted at one point along thefront longitudinal side. Abutment of the free ends at the discontin-uity prevents the frame and thus the handle from flexing in onedirection when the hammer claw is used, but the free ends part topermit the handle to flex in the other direction and thereby reducethe shock resulting from striking a workpiece.-2-
