Abstract

Abstract A socket wrench capable of reciprocatory sliding motion in the direction of its axis is rotatable thereabout by a preferably hydraulic driving motor. A vibratory impact device is mounted between the motor and the wrench to impart reciprocatory impacts to the rotating wrench, and a slip clutch between the motor and the impact device prevents vibrations from reaching the motor.
