CA 2300856

An accessory (10) for a wrench socket (12) is disclosed including a generally cylindrical magnet (32) secured to a generally cylindrical, nonmagnetic, compressible disk (26) which snugly fits within the well (14) of a socket (12). Specifically, the magnet (32) is inserted into a recess (46) formed in the disk (26) while its temperature is elevated allowing the disk material to flex and stretch. The accessory (10) is removably insertable into any socket (12) without need for modification of the socket (12) and magnetically captures a fastener (16), while not magnetizing the socket (12) or the fastener (16) sufficiently to be detrimentally magnetically attracted to metal adjacent to the fastening location.

L'invention concerne un accessoire (10) destiné à une douille de clef (12) et comportant un aimant (32) généralement cylindrique fixé à un disque compressible (26) non magnétique généralement cylindrique qui rentre juste bien à l'intérieur du puits (14) d'une douille (12). Plus précisément, l'aimant (32) est inséré dans un évidement (46) ménagé dans le disque (26) tandis que sa température est élevée, ce qui permet au matériau constitutif du disque de fléchir et de s'étirer. L'accessoire (10) s'insère de manière amovible dans n'importe quelle douille (12) sans nécessiter de modifications de celle-ci, et, magnétiquement, il maintient captif un élément de fixation (16) sans que la douille (12) ou cet élément de fixation (16) ne soient suffisamment magnétisés pour subir une attraction magnétique nuisible envers le métal adjacent au point de fixation.
