Specialized Tool for Easily Handling Gland Packing

This patent relates to a specialized tool that can easily insert and remove a sealing component called gland packing into and from a machine's groove. The tool has parts that can be firmly fixed to the machine, parts that push the gland packing in, and parts that pull it out, which can be easily interchanged. By selecting various movements such as a seesaw-like motion or gear mechanisms, it enables safe and efficient work even in narrow spaces.

• Selection of diverse movement types such as seesaw and gears
• Easy interchange of pushing and pulling parts
• Flexible fixation structure usable even in narrow spaces

Conventional insertion and removal of gland packing were very difficult when the working space was narrow or when parts were hard and difficult to move. Due to the lack of specialized tools, excessive force sometimes caused damage to parts or injuries to workers. Additionally, differences in workers' experience and skill led to variability in work quality and safety, often resulting in longer work times.

This invention allows easy interchange of the parts that push in and pull out the gland packing. Moreover, by using a seesaw-like motion and gear mechanisms, it enables work with less force even in narrow spaces. The tool can be firmly fixed to the machine, allowing stable operation. As a result, even inexperienced individuals can safely perform gland packing replacement work in a short time.

• Technology that allows reliable insertion of gland packing even in narrow spaces
• Technology that enables safe extraction of gland packing
• Technology that allows easy interchange of the tool's parts
