Abstract

See full text

A driver handle includes stored bits and passages to retain the bits during a transition from storage to use. A rod extends from the rear of each bit and an enlarged bulb is formed on the end of each rod. The passages provide passage of the bulb and a narrow slot reaching from the passage to the exterior of the driver handle allowing passage of the rod. The bits are thus movably retained in the driver handle and may be withdrawn while leaving the bulb in the handle. The bit is then moved to a shaft extending from the handle for use and the bulb slides through the passage without escaping from the driver handle preventing the bit from being separated from the driver handle and being misplaced.
