Abstract
Description




FIG. 1 is an end view of a tool handle that incorporates my new design;




FIG. 2 is a left side view thereof;




FIG. 3 is a top view thereof; and,




FIG. 4 is an end view thereof taken from the end opposite that of FIG. 1.




The right side view (not shown) is identical to the left side view of FIG. 2, and the bottom view (not shown) is identical to the top view of FIG. 3. The illustrated tool handle is well adapted for use with a wide variety of torque-transmitting hand tools such as wrenches, socket wrenches, ratchet wrenches, breaker bars and the like.




The broken lines in the drawings are for illustrative purposes and do not form part of the claimed design.
