Abstract
An apparatus is disclosed for the secure storage of sockets for ratchet wrenches and other types of interchangeable bit members for tools such as screwdrivers, nut drivers, routers, etc., having integral shafts or shaft receiving members. The invention includes a system for securely holding one or more of a set of detachable bits, used with ratchet wrenches or other tools, by means of a cam-actuated rotator member mounted within a channel guide. Further, the apparatus includes a strip member engaged along a gap formed by the rotator members to thereby maintain engagement of the bit members, and a retaining means engaged with the channel guide to prevent disengagement of the strip member from the gap.
