1. A multifunctional combination tool system, comprising:
a housing having a longitudinal axis, the housing comprising a base, a top edge, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall, wherein the first sidewall and the second sidewall extend vertically from the base to the top edge relative to the longitudinal axis;
a plurality of tools disposed within the housing and extending along the longitudinal axis, wherein each of the plurality of tools has a connected end rotatably coupled to the housing and a free end; and
an ejector mechanism coupled to the housing and disposed between the base and the plurality of tools, the ejector mechanism comprises:
a plate coupled to an actuator, wherein the actuator extends entirely through a channel disposed in one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall, wherein the actuator is movable along the channel to drive the plate upwardly and lifts the plurality of tools to an elevated position wherein the free ends of each of the plurality of tools in the elevated position are located above the top edge of the housing;
a first side panel and a second side panel extending in a vertical direction from the plate of the ejector mechanism, wherein the first side panel is disposed adjacent to the first sidewall of the housing and wherein the second side panel is disposed adjacent to the second sidewall of the housing; and
a proximal pin extending perpendicularly between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, wherein each of the first side panel and the second side panel is rotatably coupled to the housing via the proximal pin, wherein the actuator is coupled to an end of the length of the plate and extends through the channel in a direction parallel to the proximal pin and horizontal to the longitudinal axis.
