Manufactured by ROXBY WRENCH CO. - Boston MA
Assigned to Trimont Manufacturing Company - Roxbury MA

The basic principle in this patent is side lugs to prevent lateral movement of the adjustable jaw. The drawings show a pipe wrench modification of the TRIMO nut wrench of the period; the specifications state the configuration would apply to pipe or nut wrenches. Kenerson's Jan. 4, 1927 patent 1,613,229 shows a further refinement of the "extended length frame with side lugs" for a pipe wrench in the drawings, although that patent is for the "nut guards." Trimont's "ROXBY" "Pat Apld For" pipe wrench of the late 1920s appears to incorporate features from these patents. A ROXBY image in a 1928 TRIMONT catalog appears to show a January 1926 patent date.

Assigned to Walker Mfg. Co. (Racine) - Racine WI

The tire lug wrench is a crank-handled socket; the remainder of the patented tool is a folding extension shaft to reach a jack positioned beneath an automobile. The design facilitates compact storage and efficient use of materials. Walker had a second patent for a similar combination jack handle and tire-lug wrench. The jack style shown in the drawings appears in WALKER ads of the period as No. 500. See also entry for RE-17,050 for image of a WALKER screw jack of this general type. See also 1,721,756 for a similar design. Crank wrench - extension handles of this types for Walker No. 500 Series jacks with "long folding crank handles" appear in 1928 ads.
