Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a pocket tool with a housing, a compartment region, pins (11a, 11b) and an implement (13) interchangeably mounted on one of the pins (11a, 11b) by means of a coupling mechanism (22) and which can be moved by means of a pivot bearing (18) between an inwardly pivoted transport position and an outwardly pivoted functional position, which is mounted against a spring element and can be moved relative to the pin (11a, 11b) into an uncoupling position and removed from the pocket tool. The coupling mechanism (22) has a guide track guiding the implement (13) in the uncoupling position at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis (68) of the housing (2) during its uncoupling movement along the compartment region. The housing has oppositely lying side walls, which respectively have convex gripping cams (59) on their top face projecting out beyond the external contour of the implement (13, 14, 5) when moved into the transport position and disposed symmetrically about the longitudinal axis (68) of the housing (2), the geometry of which is dimensioned so that in the uncoupling position, a part-length of the implement (13) lies within the compartment region and is covered by the side walls.
