Description: |
| The ratchet head is held in the frame by a swinging cover plate. The tool would be supplied with drill driver and wrench heads. The drill advancing head is a separate unit. The ratchet pawl rocks on a rounded base, and is retractable by a thumb tab.
A known example from a Kansas City area collection marked with dates for this patent and previous patent nos. 239,972 and 243,942 has an open front frame. It probably is an example of MILLER'S REDUCING WRENCH which Miller put into production in 1891 along with MILLER'S VEHICLE WRENCH. (see patent nos. 445,541 and CA-35,643) |
