[0002] When inspecting equipment and pipelines in factories with numerous pipes, it is often necessary to use pliers to clamp nuts and other objects for secure fastening, facilitating other operations. However, existing pliers require one hand to continuously grip both handles when clamping objects like nuts, leaving only one hand available for other tasks. This is extremely inconvenient when manpower is limited. Therefore, a new type of pliers is needed that can self-lock after clamping an object and maintain a clamped state even after releasing the grip. Utility Model Content

[0010] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0011] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0012] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0013] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0014] like Figure 1-2As shown, a repair pliers with a self-locking function includes two pliers handles 1. One pliers handle 1 has a pull rod 2 connected to its middle. An adjusting tube 3 is fitted onto the pull rod 2. A retaining ring 4 is fixedly provided at one end of the adjusting tube 3. The retaining ring 4 has an annular hole 5 in its middle for the pull rod 2 to move into. The other end of the adjusting tube 3 has a connecting port 6. The adjusting tube 3 has internal threads. After the pull rod 2 extends into the adjusting tube 3 through the annular hole 5, a limiting circular plate 7 is fixedly connected. The limiting circular plate 7 has external threads that mate with the internal threads inside the adjusting tube 3. The diameter of the limiting circular plate 7 is larger than the inner diameter of the annular hole 5. The other end of the adjusting tube 3 is connected to a connecting tube 8. The connecting tube 8 has a connecting tube port 9 in its middle. The other pliers handle 1 has a telescopic spring 10 connected to its middle. The telescopic spring 10 is connected to a connector 12. The connector 12 extends into the adjusting tube 3 through the connecting tube port 9 and is connected to a limiting pull plate 11. The diameter of the limiting pull plate 11 is larger than the inner diameter of the connecting tube port 9. When using the pliers, hold both handles 1 with one hand simultaneously, using the pliers heads to clamp the object to be fixed. Then, rub the adjusting tube 3 with your fingers, causing it to rotate in one direction. Since the adjusting tube 3 is threadedly connected to the limiting circular plate 7, and the limiting circular plate 7 is fixed, the adjusting tube 3 is displaced, pulling the telescopic spring 10 taut, thus keeping the two handles 1 clamped. Releasing your hand at this point, the two handles 1 still remain clamped, and the pliers heads maintain the clamped state.

[0015] Furthermore, the connecting pipe 8 is threadedly connected to the adjusting pipe 3. The connecting pipe 8 extends into the adjusting pipe 3 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting pipe 3.

[0016] Furthermore, the outer side of the cross-section of the adjusting tube 3 is a regular hexagon, and one end of the connecting tube 8 is fixedly connected to a hexagonal ring plate 13. By rotating the hexagonal ring plate 13, the connecting tube 8 is driven to rotate, which facilitates the connection or disassembly of the connecting tube 8 and the adjusting tube 3. The outer side of the cross-section of the adjusting tube 3 is a regular hexagon, which facilitates the simultaneous rotation of the adjusting tube 3 by rubbing it while holding the pliers handle 1.

[0017] Furthermore, a bearing (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the connecting pipe 8, and the coupling 12 is connected to the connecting pipe 8 through the bearing. The bearing facilitates the rotation of the coupling 12 relative to the connecting pipe 8.

[0018] Furthermore, the middle part of the pliers handle 1 is provided with a connecting shaft 14, and a movable ring sleeve 15 is fitted on the connecting shaft 14. One end of the pull rod 2 is fixedly connected to one of the movable ring sleeves 15, and one end of the telescopic spring 10 is fixedly connected to the other movable ring sleeve 15. After the connecting tube 8 is disengaged from the adjusting tube 3, the movable ring sleeve 15 can be rotated, and the pliers can be restored to normal pliers use.

[0019] It is worth mentioning that the technical features of the bearings and other parts of the pliers involved in this utility model patent application should be regarded as prior art. The specific structure, working principle and possible control methods and spatial arrangement of these technical features can be adopted by conventional choices in the field and should not be regarded as the inventive point of this utility model patent. This utility model patent will not elaborate further.

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make many modifications and variations based on the concept of the present invention without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of the present invention through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experimentation on the basis of the prior art should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
