Tool handle display and hanger device

摘要

A holder and display device for a socket wrench tool drive component such as a ratchet handle or the like. The drive component is of conventional design and has an operating head and a relatively thin elongated cylindrical stem portion connecting the head to a handle. The display and hanger device is formed of relatively thin flat rigid formable plastic material and has a rectangular opening at its lower end portion of sufficient size to permit positioning therein of the operating head with the stem portion extending downwardly therefrom. The opening is defined by two parallel side portions and a bottom portion, the bottom portion having a semi-cylindrical hump formed therein with an inner diameter corresponding to the inner diameter of the stem. A rectangular strip is initially formed contiguous with the bottom portion and with a semi-cylindrical hump formed therein corresponding in size and shape to the hump in the bottom portion. The rectangular strip is easily removable from the bottom portion and is adapted to be secured in reverse relation back-to-back to the rearward side of the bottom portion to define an annular collar. Accordingly, the rectangular strip is secured to the back of the bottom portion with the stem positioned in the collar and with the operating head in the opening. The upper end of the display and hanger device has a hole adapted to be used to hang the device and the socket wrench tool drive component carried thereby on a hook or rod for display at the point of sale.
