Abstract

A screwdriver kit includes a recessed base comprising a divider wall for dividing an internal space into first and second compartments, the divider wall including an opening; a spring biased cover hingedly secured to the base and having a latch; two spring biased receiving structures in the first compartment, each receiving structure comprising screwdriver head receiving slots; a spring biased pivotal structure in the second compartment and comprising a top slope and a lock pin inserting through the opening into the first compartment to be locked by the latch; and a spring biased push button on the pivotal structure and comprising a bottom protrusion engaged with the slope. In response to pressing the push button the projection slides downward along the slope to pivot the pivotal structure and disengage the lock pin from the latch, thereby unlocking the cover and upward pivoting the receiving structures.
