Abstract

PURPOSE:To assemble a space truss with an extreme efficiency, by inserting the tip part of the screwed hexagonal bar of a ratchet wrench into the hexagonal hole of the connector assembled into a nose cone and screwing the connector into the screw hole of a spherical joint by the ratchet wrench in succession. CONSTITUTION:A ratchet wrench 1 is inserted into the through hole 13a of a spherical joint 13 and also the tip part of the screwed hexagonal bar 4 of the ratchet wrench 1 is inserted into the hexagonal hole 14a of the connector 14 tip assembled in the nose cone 12 of the single body 11 end part which composes a space truss. In succession, the connector 14 is screwed with the screw hole 13b of the spherical joint 13 so as to pull it into the back thereof by the ratchet wrench 1. In such a case, the ratchet wrench 1 can be pulled out of the through hole 13a of the spherical joint 13 after completion of the fastening, because of the projection part becoming short gradually with the screwed hexagonal bar 4 being gradually inserted into a socket 3 simultaneously with fastening gradually the connector 14 to the spherical joint 13 side.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a ratchet wrench for connecting a single member constituting a space truss and a ball joint, and a method for assembling a space truss using the ratchet wrench.

[Conventional technology and problems to be solved] Generally, when constructing a three-dimensional truss by three-dimensionally connecting many single members such as steel pipes, ball joints are often used to connect the single members. However, the single material and the ball joint are connected by incorporating a connector in advance into a nose cone protruding from the end of the single material, and screwing this connector into a screw hole on the surface of the ball joint.

In addition, a ratchet wrench is used to tighten this connector, and the ratchet wrench is inserted into the through hole of the ball joint, and the threaded square rod tip of the ratchet wrench is inserted into the hexagonal hole at the tip of the connector, and the connector is tightened. It is screwed into the ball joint by being pulled deep into the screw hole using a ratchet wrench.

In such cases, the original connector is located deep inside the nose cone, so it is necessary to use a wrench with a long hex socket that can reach it, and the connector is screwed deep into the screw hole of the ball joint. As the ball joint is fitted, it is necessary to gradually replace it with a shorter hexagonal socket, and finally use a very short hexagonal socket so that the wrench can be pulled out of the ball joint (see Figures 5 and 6).

For this reason, conventional ratchet wrenches not only require several types of hexagonal bar sockets of different lengths to connect a single piece of material to a ball joint, but also need to be replaced several times during tightening. Therefore, the connection work was extremely troublesome.

In this configuration, when the wrench body 2 is rotated in the direction of the arrow by the handle 5 (see Fig. 1), the socket 3 and the threaded angle rod 4 absorb the rotational force of the handle 5 due to the action of the ratchet mechanism 7. It rotates in the direction of the arrow along with the wrench body 2 (see Fig. 1).

一方、ねじ付置角棒4の回転を阻止した状態でレンチ本

On the other hand, when the wrench body 2 is turned in the opposite direction while the rotation of the threaded square rod 4 is blocked, the socket 3 and the threaded square rod 4 do not receive any rotational force and rotate together with the wrench body 2 due to the action of the ratchet device tJli7. No, but screwed square rod 4
is inserted deep into the threaded hole 6, that is, into the socket 3, by the action of the threaded hole 6 and the male threaded portion 9.
