A method and apparatus for coupling an attachable tool to a handle comprising
a
coupler device fixedly attached to the handle and having a locking structure moveable
between locking and release conditions and being carried by a coupler body having
an inner wall defining a cavity that is accessible via a cavity dimensioned and
shaped to receive the attachable tool and having a first locking member for cooperative
abutting engagement with the attachable tool to temporarily move the locking structure
to its release condition when the attachment shaft is inserted into the cavity
and a second locking member for cooperative engagement with the locking structure
when the attachment shaft is inserted substantially into the cavity and the locking
structure is moved to the locking position to inhibit removal of the attachment
shaft from the cavity.
