In this application the inventor is claiming all the rights to the claimed invention the Fulcrum Spark Plug the claim is on the shell of the spark plug and its applicator. The applicator enables the plug to be installed and removed without tools. The utility is on an easier and faster way to change spark plugs. The Fulcrum base, seat, or applicator locks and unlocks clockwise turn or push and turn movement. Disclosure numbers 221582 and 251931 dates March of 89 and April 1990 p.p. application Ser. No. 07/862,612 Mar. 10, 1992
The features that the utility is sought on is the latch and trip unlatch by the handle the way the plug is installed and removed by its applicator or “base” the different shapes of the shell allows the plug to pass through the threads seat and latch the plug into place. When the latch spring into place it locks the handle from turning at the right torque.
The system features are the geometric shapes and the corrugating locking system. The fulcrum plug handle was engineered to remain in the engine but can be removed.
The Fulcrum Plug was founded by King D. Monroe in December 1988. The idea came about years after one of the inventors duties was to change a spark plug because of a leaking head gasket. The inventor is claiming a new and useful idea consisting of the wrench, bolt, and hydraulic coupler finding a new and useful invention the Fulcrum Plug.
A brief description of the fulcrum shows a reworked shell that in this application the founder decided to use the triangle see
The description of the fulcrum plug resembles a hydraulic coupler with a handle for leverage, and the part of the system that holds the plug in place. When the latch is not engaged into the handle it allows the handle to turn to where the threads ore no longer over the outermost parts of the shell this allows the plug to be removed. The fulcrum plug idea came about to make work easier for everyone. The fulcrum plug comes in two parts: the triangle shaped shell, insulator, seat cup, gasket and the plug gap. The leverage or handle is a shaft that resembles a socket wrench that has square threads near the cylinder to hold the plug down. The cylinder is grooved so that the latch and spring stays on the right path while it is operating.
