[0001] 1. Field of Invention
[0002] The present invention is related to a tool display board.
[0003] 2. Related Prior Art
[0004] There are a lot of tool kits on the market. A tool kit includes a lot of tools contained in a box equipped with a cover. A retaining device is formed on a bottom of the box in order to retain the tools in position. The cover can be opened in order to display such tools retained on the bottom of the box. In other cases, the tools are mounted on a board. A retaining device is formed on the display board in order to retain the tools in position. Of course, the tools retained on such a display board are open to observation. The tools of a tool kit should all work. To be sure, a customer may want to test every one of the tools before he or she buys the tool kit. However, the boxes and the boards mostly are not equipped with any device on which the tools can be tested.
[0005] Referring to
[0006] It is the primary objective of the present invention to provide a tool display board with a realistic test device.
[0007] In the present invention, a tool display board includes a test device on which a wrench can be tested in a realistic manner. The test device includes a nut secured to the tool display board and a bolt to be driven by the wrench for engagement with the nut. The tool display board includes a hole defined therein. Many teeth are formed on an periphery surrounding the hole. The nut includes a plurality of teeth formed on an internal surface thereof for engagement with the teeth formed on the board. The bolt includes a head and a thread. The nut includes a thread formed on an internal surface thereof for engagement with the thread of the bolt.
[0008] The bolt may include a shank formed between the head and the thread in order to avoid over drive of the bolt in the nut. The shank is made of a length identical to the thickness of the nut.
[0009] The bolt may include a second shank formed next to the thread. The second shank may be made of a length longer than the thickness of the bolt.
[0010] The bolt may include a second thread formed next to the second shank in order to avoid the bolt escaping from the bolt.
[0011] The tool display board may include a retaining device for retaining at least one wrench. The retaining device includes at least one clamp. The clamp includes two claws. Each of the claws includes a wedge-shaped tip. The wedge-shaped tip includes a receiving surface on and beyond which the wrench can be slid so that the wrench can be moved to a position between the claws. The wedge-shaped tip includes a trapping surface for trapping the wrench between the claws.
[0012] A hole may be defined in each of the claws in order to receive a bar for locking the wrench between the claws.
[0013] The tool display board may include a frame formed thereon for retaining the wrench engaged with the test device. The frame includes a hole defined therein for receiving the wrench.
