Abstract
The present invention provides a means to achieve enhanced control of repair forces in the automotive body repair industry. In particular, the present invention provides a modified slide hammer and a method to achieve repair through the controlled application of forces otherwise not attainable with existing embodiments. Additionally, the present invention provides an ease of use and versatility of application and mounting at the site of the work in conjunction with and in line with existing devices used in the repair process. The application of the present invention provides increased reliability in the delivery of intended forces at the site of the work. Further, the inherent isolation of repair forces to the intended site of the work by the use of the present invention reduces the likelihood of secondary damage, material waste, or catastrophic failure thereby also enhancing the safety of the operator and the effectivity of repair. Specifically, the present invention may be implemented in conjunction with existing frame pullers in the automotive body repair industry to affect repair while providing facility to avoid obstructions in the path of applied forces.
