Patent attributes
A socket holding device includes a peg component, a holding component, a positioning component, and a spring component. The peg component has a pin portion formed with a recess. The holding component has an insert portion that is movable between first and second positions relative to the pin portion. The insert portion has an outer peripheral wall that permits sleeving of a socket on the holding component. The insert portion is formed with a retainer hole that is registered with the recess. The positioning component is movably disposed in the retainer hole. The positioning component and the recess are configured such that the positioning component projects from the outer peripheral wall for interference engagement with the socket when the holding component is at the first position, and such that the positioning component permits removal of the socket when the holding component is at the second position. The spring component biases the holding component to the first position.
