Abstract

A storage device for storage of socket wrenches thereon in end to end relation. The device has an elongated body that is made of a flexible twisted metal cable or other suitable material. Attached to each opposing end of the body are mutually engageable releasable coupling members. The locking action is accomplished as a result of one end coupling member being biased against and securely retained against the second coupling member.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A socket wreck storage device comprising:
 a body having an intermediate portion with opposing coupler members attached to the distal ends thereon; the intermediate portion being defined by a first end with an attached female coupler member and an opposing second end with an attached mating male coupler member; the body being made of an elongated flexible durable material adapted for receiving and holding a plurality of sockets thereon; the female coupler member being releaseable connected to the male coupler member to form a loop member capable of varying in shape while in use; and the female coupler member capable of rotating 360 degrees to form a secured connection therebetween thereby while in use preventing disconnection therefrom;   
   
   
       2 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  wherein the intermediate portion is made of a flexible wire cable having a plurality of strands twisted together around a core into a helix configuration which cushion off stress forces when bending the intermediate portion. 
   
   
       3 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 the female coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an inwardly threaded recessed portion;   the male coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an outwardly protruding threaded extending portion; and   the recessed portion adapted to securely engage with the extending portion wherein a secured connection is formed.   
   
   
       4 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 the female coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an inwardly smooth surface bore recessed portion;   the male coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an outwardly protruding smooth surface extending portion; and   the recessed portion adapted to securely engage with the extending portion wherein a secured connection is formed.   
   
   
       5 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  further comprising the female coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an outer surface area having a plurality of ridges incorporated therein such that a user can easily grip the female coupler while connecting and disconnecting. 
   
   
       6 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  further comprising the male coupler member having a small cylindrical body portion with an outer surface area having a plurality of ridges incorporated therein such that a user can easily grip the male coupler while connecting and disconnecting.; 
   
   
       7 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  wherein the female coupler member further comprises a small cylindrical body portion that rotates relative to the intermediate body portion preventing the disconnection of the opposing coupler members. 
   
   
       8 . The socket wrench storage device of  claim 1  wherein the male coupler member further comprises a small cylindrical body portion that rotates relative to the intermediate body portion preventing the disconnection of the opposing coupler members.
