Abstract
A ratcheting tool has a drive tang with a socket retaining detent and a linkage to engage the detent. A locking element is disposed movably between a first position wherein the locking element engages the linkage when a first actuator is in a first position so that the locking element blocks movement of the linkage so that the detent remains in a socket-retaining position and a second position in which the locking element disengages the linkage. A storage device for retaining sockets has a frame and one or more docks attached to the frame, each dock having a first retainer member, a second retainer member, and a third retainer member, at least one of which is selectively movable with respect to a socket receiving space so that a socket is removable from the socket receiving space.
