A lever is a tool that uses the principle of leverage, consisting of a fulcrum, a force point, and an action point. A single fulcrum and a bar are all that is needed to use it as a lever.
There are many tools in the world that use the lever principle. A typical example is a nail puller. A crowbar used for lifting and shifting heavy objects is also a type of lever.
Scissors and pliers also use the lever principle and can be considered as types of levers.
Levers are used to amplify and utilize the force applied. For example, it would be very difficult to remove a nail from a piece of wood with only the force of a finger. However, with a nail puller, the nail can be pulled out in an instant by the lever principle.
They are also used to carry heavy objects. Wooden sticks were used as levers when the pyramids were built in ancient Egypt. Other times, they are used for cutting, such as with scissors or nippers.
There are many ways to use levers. Here we introduce the shapes and names of leverage tools according to their uses, so you can refer to them when selecting a tool.
