2. Socket wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_wrench

   Socket set with ratchet (above), four hex sockets and a universal joint. A socket wrench (or socket spanner) is a type of spanner (or wrench [1] in North American English) that uses a closed socket format, rather than a typical open wrench/spanner to turn a fastener, typically in the form of a nut or bolt.

   Torq-set is a cruciform screw drive used in torque-sensitive applications. The Torq-set head is similar in appearance to a Phillips drive in that it has a cross with 4 arms. In Torq-set however, the lines are offset from each other, so they do not align to form intersecting slots across the top of the head.

4. Ratchet (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratchet_(device)

   A ratchet (occasionally spelled rachet) is a mechanical device that allows continuous linear or rotary motion in only one direction while preventing motion in the opposite direction. Ratchets are widely used in machinery and tools. The word ratchet is also used informally to refer to a ratcheting socket wrench.

5. Wrench - Wikipedia

   ratcheting box wrench: ratcheting ring spanner: A type of ring spanner, or box wrench, whose end section ratchets. Ratcheting can be reversed by flipping over the wrench, or by activating a reversing lever on the wrench. This type of wrench combines the compact design of a box wrench, with the utility and quickness of use of a ratchet wrench.

   Offset. Offset is the perpendicular distance between the axes of hypoid gears or offset face gears. [1] In the adjacent diagram, (a) and (b) are referred to as having an offset below center, while those in (c) and (d) have an offset above center. In determining the direction of offset, it is customary to look at the gear with the pinion at the ...

7. Flexplate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexplate

   The name refers to the ability of the disk to flex along its main axis to account for gear changes and/or small misalignments as rotational speeds change. [2] Flexplates are generally much thinner and lighter than flywheels not only because of the required flexibility, but also due to the smoother coupling action of the torque converter [3] and the elimination of the clutch surface.
