This application provides a combination tool including a first tool component and a second tool component. The first tool component includes, coupled to each other, a working portion and a grip portion. The grip portion is provided with a tool receptacle, and the second tool component is detachably disposed in the tool receptacle. Additionally, the combination tool may further include a damping mechanism for preventing the second tool component from accidentally disengaging from the first tool component. Below, the combination tool of the present application will be described with a scraper as the first tool component as an example.

Referring to FIG. 1, a schematic diagram showing the structure of a multifunctional scraper of an embodiment of the present application, this application provides a multifunctional scraper, the multifunctional scraper including a scraper blade 1 and a handle 2 fixedly coupled to the scraper blade 1. The scraper blade 1 is used to achieve a scraping or shoveling function of the multifunctional scraper, is a primary working part of the multifunctional scraper, and is typically made from a metallic or ceramic material. For example, the metallic material may be an aluminum alloy, aluminum or steel material. The handle 2 may be typically divided into a wooden, plastic, ceramic or steel handle, and the handle 2 fixedly coupled to the scraper blade 1 is a portion of the multifunctional scraper to be gripped by a hand, facilitating an operator's grip and use.

Differing from existing scrapers, the multifunctional scraper provided in the present embodiment further includes a tool receptacle 3 and a second tool 4. The tool receptacle 3 is provided on the handle 2 and is adapted to the second tool 4 in terms of shape and size. The second tool 4 is movably inserted in the tool receptacle 3.

The tool receptacle 3 in the present embodiment is provided to accommodate the second tool 4 using in a space of the handle 2. Therefore, the tool receptacle 3 is provided in a body of the handle 2. The tool receptacle 3 may be formed integrally with the handle 2, or may be later formed in the handle 2 by machining, as long as the second tool 4 can be received while not affecting the operator's comfort when gripping the handle 2 with a hand.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the tool receptacle 3 is provided in a middle portion of the handle 2. Of course, the tool receptacle 3 provided in the present application may also be provided elsewhere in the handle 2, e.g., at a trailing end of the handle 2, along an axial direction of the handle 2, or along a transverse direction of the handle 2. The method of provision may be as described previously, so a further description is omitted.

The tool receptacle 3 is intended mainly to accommodate the second tool 4, so it shall be adapted to the second tool 4 to be accommodated in terms of shape, size, depth, opening width and other dimensions. For example, the second tool 4 may be a Phillips screwdriver bit. Of course, it is also possible to, as needed, place another tool suitable to be placed in the handle 2, such as a knife blade, a tape measure or a screwdriver bit in another shape.

Therefore, by providing, in the handle 2 of the multifunctional scraper, the tool receptacle 3 and disposing the second tool 4 such as a screwdriver bit or a knife blade, it is possible to make the operator such as a painter able to conveniently carry, during operation, the second tool 4 and rapidly pick up or stow it. Therefore, the second tool 4 is movably inserted in the tool receptacle 3, and in order to achieve this movable insertion, a non-fastening manner such as friction created by surface contact between surfaces of the second tool 4 and the tool receptacle 3, snap elements or the like can be utilized, while requiring the tool receptacle 3 to be adapted to the second tool 4 in terms of size and shape.

The operator, when performing a scraping or shoveling operation using the multifunctional scraper, upon needing to use the second tool 4 such as a screwdriver bit or knife blade, can take the second tool 4 out of the handle 2, and after the use, put the second tool 4 back into the tool receptacle 3 in the handle 2, making access and use convenient and loss not easy to happen.

The second tool 4 in the multifunctional scraper provided in the present application is movably inserted in the tool receptacle 3. Considering the second tool 4 and/or the handle 2 is/are mostly made of a metallic material, a plastic or the like, in order to increase friction and guarantee, to a certain extent, relative stability of the second tool 4 placed in the tool receptacle 3, the present embodiment can employ a corresponding anti-slip measure. For example, on at least one inner wall of the tool receptacle 3, a damping mechanism is provided. For example, the damping mechanism may be provided at the bottom of the tool receptacle 3. For example, the damping mechanism may be an elastic snap element, or a magnetic element, or an anti-slip silicone coating.

For example, the elastic snap element may be disposed at the bottom or on an inner side wall of the tool receptacle 3. The magnetic element may be magnetic steel, wherein the magnetic steel may also be referred to as a magnet, and the magnetic element is disposed at the bottom of the tool receptacle 3. The anti-slip silicone coating is positioned on at least one inner wall of the tool receptacle 3. For example, the anti-slip silicone coating is positioned on a bottom surface, an inner circumferential surface or all the inner surfaces of the tool receptacle 3. Of course, other anti-slip materials or measures are also possible, and this can additionally enhance the utility and convenience of use of the multifunctional scraper provided in this application.

For example, when the second tool 4 is a Phillips screwdriver bit or a knife blade, the tool receptacle 3 is provided in a middle portion of the handle, and the Phillips screwdriver bit or knife blade is movably inserted in the tool receptacle 3. When to be used, the Phillips screwdriver bit or knife blade can be taken out of the tool receptacle 3. In order to make the Phillips screwdriver bit or knife blade placed in the tool receptacle 3 not easy to slip off, on at least one inner wall of the tool receptacle 3, a damping mechanism is provided. For example, the damping mechanism may be a protruding snap element, or a magnetic element, or an anti-slip silicone coating, such as a protruding elastic snap element integrally formed with at least one inner wall of the tool receptacle 3, or a damping mechanism in another form, as long as it has a relatively fixing effect on the Phillips screwdriver bit or knife blade placed in the tool receptacle 3.

In another embodiment of this application, a linear screwdriver bit or a reversible bit is also a type of commonly used hand tool and may also be placed, as the second tool, in the tool receptacle 3 in the multifunctional scraper provided in the present embodiment. For example, the tool receptacle 3 transversely extends through the handle 2 and forms a linear through hole. Due to the transverse extension, the number of the tool receptacles 3 may be either one or more than one, e.g., two or three, depending principally on a length of the handle 2 as well as a size of the screwdriver bit. The linear screwdriver bit is also movably inserted in the tool receptacle 3, i.e., transversely extending through the through hole in the handle 2. Because of the through hole structure, the linear screwdriver bit, after being placed in the through hole, can be conveniently removed from either side of the through hole.

In another embodiment of this application, in order to additionally increase the spatial utilization, it is also possible to provide, at the trailing end of the handle 2, a tool receptacle along a longitudinal direction of the handle 2.
