BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 0003 1. Field of Invention 0004 This invention relates specifically to flexible drive wrench handles. 0005 2. Background of Invention 0006 Mechanics and others who use tools for repairing automobiles or other equipment too often find that the handles for the drive sockets, open end, and close end wrenches are rigid and are not flexible enough to access certain recessed areas or confined spaces in their work. 0007 A search of the prior art has located designs of various ratchets and bent handles to try to solve this problem. 0008 Examples of such prior art are U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,592,254; 1,306,533; 2,733,745 and 4,099,430. 0009 The above mentioned tools do not provide the adaptability for use in recessed or confined spaces. 0010 This invention provides improvement on the existing rigid wrench handles and makes the flexible drive wrench handle more versatile that the open or close end wrenches, and combination wrenches or drive socket wrenches that are available in the market place.

SUMMARY OF OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION 0011 The flexible drive wrench handle consists of numerous steel links connected together to form a chain which is made semi-flexible to form a flexible drive wrench handle. 0012 Each of the chain links are held together by tight fitting removable mushroom head steel pins through the holes at each end of the links, thus allowing the links to flex around each pin. 0013 Each chain link is flexed along its connecting link to fit the contour for accessibility of a recessed and difficult to access areas where machine bolts or nuts or other fasteners are located. 0014 When torque or force is applied parallel with the connecting pins in either direction, the flexible drive wrench handle operates as a wrench and moves clockwise or counter clockwise in the direction of the torque that is manually applied for the installation or removal of fasteners. 0015 One end of each link consists of a flat stud with rounded end and a hole through its center, the other end of the link consists of a slotted cavity through which the stud of the previous link is inserted into with a tight fit. The slotted cavity also has a hole through its center, so that the hole in the stud lines up with said hole of the slotted cavity, through which the tight fitting removable mushroom head steel pin is inserted to hold the links together. 0016 Thus the flexible drive wrench handle may be lenghtened by the addition of links to provide additional torque, or shortened by-the removal of a number of the links. 0017 In place of a flat stud at the end of the link, the stud is converted into an open end wrench head or close end wrench head or a ratchet or a square stud with a spring loaded button to which may be attached a drive socket or crowfoot wrench or a torx wrench head. 0018 Either of the said converted links is attached to the stud of the last link of the flexible drive wrench handle with the removable mushroom head steel pinto form a flexible drive wrench. 0019 Further advantages will become apparent for a consideration when reviewing the description of the drawings. 0020 In addition to the flexible drive wrench handle that comprises of numerous steel links as described in the foregoing, a similar flexible drive wrench handle comprising of regular chain links as is used in motorcycles or the like may also be utilized.

DRAWINGS 0021 Drawing 01 shows a flexible drive wrench handle with a knurled handle with numerous tightly fitted steel links connected together and an open end wrench at the other end. 0022 Drawing 02 shows a flexible drive wrench without a knurled handle, but numerous tightly fitted steel links connected together an a square steel stud at the end of the flexible drive wrench. 0023 Drawing 03 shows a flexible drive wrench with a knurled handle with numerous tightly fitted steel links connected together and a square steel stud at the other end. 0024 Drawing 04 shows an enlarged partial view of 2 steel links tightly connected together.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION: PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 0032 FIG. 1 of Drawing 01 show a knurled handle 1 tightly connected to a steel link 2 through a slotted cavity, by means of a tight fitting removal mushroom head steel pin 4. 0033 At the other end of the steel link is a stud 3 with rounded end which is inserted into the slotted cavity 2 of the next steel link. Numerous links are thus tightly connected together to form any desirable length of a flexible drive wrench. The links are all tightly fitted together. 0034 The last steel link is an open end wrench 7 which is connected to the last stud of the flexible drive wrench by a mushroom head steel pin 4. 0035 VIEW 1-1 of Drawing 01 shows the side view of FIG. 1. In it is shown the steel links with the slotted cavity 2 with rounded ends, through
