Description: |
| The primary object of the invention resides in a wrench especially designed for applying and removing the right and left hub caps on automobile wheels of the wire spoke type without damaging or marring the same, it being appreciated that this type of hub cap embodies opposed lugs which at present receive hammer blows to tightly apply the cap or for loosening the same for removal, resulting in the breaking of the lugs or damage thereto.
Another object of the invention is to provide a hub cap wrench embodying a handle provided with a head at one end thereof, the opposed side faces of which are concaved and which communicate with reversely disposed sockets for receiving the lugs of the hub cap of the respective right and left wheels of an automobile."
A known example is marked with the patent number without "maker" or "brand" identifiers. |
