Patent attributes
A tool for installing a threaded object includes a bit or inner implement that has a tip for engaging a head of the threaded object, and a sleeve surrounding the inner implement for securing the threaded object to the tool during the installation process. The sleeve includes plural arms at least some of which have inner lips that engage the head of the threaded object to hold the head against the tip. The inner lips are chamfered to facilitate engagement and disengagement between the sleeve and the head of the threaded object. The sleeve is able to translate to a limited extent relative to the inner implement, in order to pull back and disengage from the threaded object head as the threaded object is received into a threaded opening.
