[0031] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A second pressure wheel 8 is provided above the bidirectional Chile wheel mechanism 3. The second pressure wheel 8 is movably connected to the shell 1. A control board 10 is installed inside the shell 1, and a tension sensor 9 is connected to the side of the control board 10.

[0033] In the above technical solution, the left Chile wheel 3-3, the transmission wheel 3-4, the right Chile wheel 3-5 and the main shaft 3-9 are integrated to facilitate the movement of parts on both sides.

[0034] In the above technical solution, the interior of the left Chile wheel 3-3 and the right Chile wheel 3-5 is set to a triangular gradual opening, and the number of the triangular gradual openings is set to three. The three triangular gradual openings are distributed in a circular array about the center point of the left Chile wheel 3-3 and the right Chile wheel 3-5, which is conducive to controlling the left Chile wheel 3-3 and the right Chile wheel 3-5.

[0035] like Figure 1-10 As shown: the triangular gradual openings arranged inside the left ball 3-8 and the right ball 3-10 are in opposite directions, and the left ball 3-8 and the right ball 3-10 are both arranged inside the triangular gradual opening to facilitate one-way rotation.

[0036] In the above technical solution, the DC motor 4 includes a motor assembly 4-1, a plastic cable tie 4-2 is provided at the opening of the shell 1, a pressing belt wheel assembly 4-3 is provided above the first pressing wheel 3-6, and the pressing belt wheel assembly 4-3 includes a rotating rod 4-5 and a rotating rod 4-5, the rotating rod 4-5 and the rotating rod 4-5 are rotatably connected, a rotating shaft 4-7 is provided at the middle end of the rotating rod 4-5, and an elastic member 4-6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod 4-5, and a cable tie 11 is provided between the first pressing wheel 3-6 and the pressing belt wheel assembly 4-3, which is convenient for squeezing the cable tie 11 and is conducive to tightening the cable tie 11.

[0037] In the above technical solution, a cam 5-4 is provided between the eccentric wheel 3-2 and the left bearing 3-1, a shearing structure arm 5-1 is provided on the outside of the cam 5-4, a rotating shaft is provided at the middle end of the shearing structure arm 5-1, a lower blade 5-2 is provided at the end of the shearing structure arm 5-1, and the shearing mechanism 2 includes an upper blade 5-3. The upper blade 5-3 corresponds to the lower blade 5-2, which is conducive to automatic shearing of materials and greatly reduces labor intensity.

[0038] This utility works as follows:

[0039] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1-12First, the cable tie gun is powered on, the mechanism is reset, the two blades are opened, the cable tie 11 is manually fed into the entrance, and the start button 5 is pressed to start the DC motor 4 to pull the cable tie 11. In the left cable tie pulling Chi Le wheel of the two-way Chi Le wheel mechanism 3, the four components of the left Chi Le wheel 3-3, the transmission wheel 3-4, the right Chi Le wheel 3-5, and the main shaft 3-9 form a whole. When the main shaft 3-9 rotates, it drives the left Chi Le wheel 3-3, the transmission wheel 3-4 and the right Chi Le wheel 3-5 to rotate at the same time. The inside of the right Chi Le wheel 3-5 is provided with a gradual opening from the inside to the outside. When the two-way Chi Le wheel mechanism 3 rotates counterclockwise, the right ball 3-10 in the right Chi Le wheel 3-5 is at the outermost side of the gradual opening of the right Chi Le wheel 3-5. The geometric size of the outer side of the gradual opening of the Chi Le wheel is larger than the diameter of the right ball 3-10. The first pressing wheel 3-6 has no friction contact with the right ball 3-10. The first pressing wheel 3-6 is stationary. On the contrary, when the main shaft 3-9 rotates clockwise, the geometric size of the right Chile wheel 3-5 is reduced as the right Chile wheel 3-5 rotates, so that the right Chile wheel 3-5 contacts with the right ball 3-10 and the first pressing wheel 3-6. Due to the effect of friction, the main shaft 3-9 assembly is integrated into one by the action of the ball and rotates at the same time, just like a clutch, which makes the two separated structures rotate together. That is, when the main shaft 3-9 rotates clockwise, the first pressing wheel 3-6 rotates at the same time, and when it rotates counterclockwise, the first pressing wheel 3-6 is stationary, achieving the purpose of one-way drive. When the motor assembly 4-1 rotates, the bidirectional Chile wheel mechanism 3 drives the first pressing wheel 3-6 to rotate at the same time, so that the plastic strap 4-2 is tightened backwards under the action of friction between the first pressing wheel 3-6 and the pressing strap wheel assembly 4-3, completing the "pulling" function.

[0040] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1-12 , after tightening, the internal program sends a shear control signal (the tightening parameters can be set as required), the motor reverses, and when the main shaft 3-9 rotates counterclockwise, the left Chile wheel 3-3 and the left ball 3-8 and the eccentric wheel 3-2 move synchronously, so that the top dead point of the eccentric wheel 3-2 becomes the bottom dead point, driving the shearing mechanism 2 to move, generating displacement, and achieving the purpose of shearing. When rotating clockwise, the eccentric wheel 3-2 is stationary. In the initial state, a reset signal is generated, and the shearing structure arm 5-1 is stationary. When the bidirectional Chile wheel mechanism 3 rotates clockwise, it drives the cam 5-4 to rotate, causing the shearing structure arm 5-1 to deflect, driving the lower blade 5-2 to move upward, and when the cam 5-4 rotates 360°, a shearing action is completed, and the mechanism returns to the initial state, completing a complete "tightening, shearing" action, and achieving the purpose of "tightening, shearing".

[0041] The above description is merely illustrative of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It goes without saying that those skilled in the art will be able to modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and description are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims.
