A tool of the type having a drive stud (10) for receiving and releasing a tool attachment includes an opening (16) in the drive stud (10) and a locking pin (24) movably mounted in the opening (16). The opening (16) defines first and second ends (18, 20), and the first end (18) of the opening (16) is located at a portion of the drive stud (10) constructed for insertion into the tool attachment. An actuating member (34) is movably positioned on the drive stud (10), and the actuating member (34) defines a sliding surface (44) that engages the pin (24). A first spring (48) biases the sliding surface (44) toward the pin (24), and a second, weaker spring (50) biases the pin (24) toward the sliding surface (44). The first spring (48) reacts against a ring (63) that is disposed between the spring (48) and a shoulder (64) formed on the tool. The shoulder (64) extends away from the longitudinal axis of the drive stud (10) by a lesser distance than the spring (48) or the ring (63).

Selon l'invention, un outil du type tenon d'entraînement (10) permettant de recevoir et de libérer un accessoire d'outil comprend une ouverture (16) dans le tenon d'entraînement (10) et une tige de blocage (24) montée de manière mobile dans l'ouverture (16). L'ouverture (16) définit des première et seconde extrémités (18, 20), la première extrémité (18) de l'ouverture (16) étant placée au niveau d'une partie du tenon d'entraînement (10) conçue pour l'insertion dans l'accessoire d'outil. Un actionneur (34) est placé de manière mobile sur le tenon d'entraînement (10) et l'actionneur (34) définit une surface coulissante (44) qui vient en contact avec la tige (24). Un premier ressort (48) sollicite la surface coulissante (44) vers la tige (24) et un second ressort affaibli (50) sollicite ladite tige (24) vers la surface coulissante (44). Le premier ressort (48) réagit contre un anneau (63) disposé entre le ressort (48) et un épaulement (64) formé sur l'outil. Ledit épaulement (64) s'étend à une moindre distance que le ressort (48) ou l'anneau (63) par rapport de l'axe longitudinal du tenon d'entraînement (10).
