Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe wrench technology, and in particular to a lightweight optical pipe wrench. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of optical systems, various tubular components, such as laser sleeves, are frequently used. These are typically secured to other components via threaded connections. However, in practice, these tubular components can sometimes be overtightened and difficult to disassemble using conventional methods. In such cases, specialized tools are needed to assist in loosening the screws. Unfortunately, there is currently a lack of an ideal tool specifically designed for the disassembly of optical system tubular components.

[0003] In particular, optical sleeves and similar tubing are often made of thin-walled aluminum. Due to the inherent elasticity of aluminum alloys, sleeves can easily become difficult to disassemble due to excessive force during tightening. While traditional pipe wrenches can be used to attempt to loosen these fittings, applying pressure to multiple points on the tube wall can easily cause deformation. Once the tube wall is deformed, it will affect the subsequent installation of circular optical elements, and in severe cases, may even render the entire optical sleeve unusable because it cannot return to its original shape. Therefore, finding a tool that can effectively disassemble without damaging the fittings has become a pressing problem in the maintenance of optical systems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this utility model proposes a lightweight optical tube clamp, which aims to solve the problem of difficult disassembly of tubes in optical systems.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] A portable optical tube clamp, comprising:

[0007] The clamp body is a metal part with an integral C-shaped structure. The clamp body has clamp holes for inserting pipe fittings. Both ends of the clamp body have pressure arms extending away from the clamp holes. An opening that can be elastically opened and closed is formed between the two pressure arms, and the opening communicates with the clamp holes.

[0008] Two extension arms, each detachably connected to one of the two pressure arms.

[0009] As a further optional solution, a rubber pad is provided on the inside of the clamp hole.

[0010] As a further alternative, an additional arm is provided on the clamp body on the other side of the pressure arm.

[0011] As a further optional solution, the inner and outer sides of the pressure arm are respectively provided with a first slot and a second slot;

[0012] The first slot includes a first straight groove section and a first insert section. The first straight groove section is arranged along the length direction of the pressure arm. One end of the first insert section is connected to the first straight groove section, and the other end of the first insert section is open on the inner side wall of the pressure arm.

[0013] The second slot includes a second straight groove section and a second snap-in section. The second straight groove section is arranged along the length direction of the pressure arm. One end of the second snap-in section is connected to the second straight groove section, and the other end of the second snap-in section is open on the outer side wall of the pressure arm.

[0014] The extended arm is provided with a slot for inserting the pressure arm. The slot is provided with a first locking post and a second locking post. The first locking post is slidably disposed in the first slot, and the second locking post is slidably disposed in the second slot. A gap is formed between the first locking post and the second locking post to allow the pressure arm to pass through.

[0015] As a further optional solution, both the inner walls of the first straight groove section and the second straight groove section are provided with protrusions, which are used to prevent the first locking pin / second locking pin from sliding within the first straight groove section / second straight groove section.

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They 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. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0034] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; 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; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] refer to Figure 1-8 An embodiment of this utility model shows a lightweight optical tube clamp, including a clamp body 1 and two extension arms 2. The clamp body 1 is a metal part with an integral C-shaped structure. The clamp body 1 has clamp holes 11 for inserting tubes. Both ends of the clamp body 1 have pressure arms 12 extending away from the clamp holes 11. An opening 13 that can be elastically opened and closed is formed between the two pressure arms 12, and the opening 13 communicates with the clamp holes 11. The two extension arms 2 are detachably connected to the two pressure arms 12 respectively.

[0036] The lightweight optical tube wrench can be fitted with an extension arm 2 on its body 1. The extension arm 2 increases the lever arm, making disassembly easier. When disassembling tube fittings, such as... Figure 7 As shown, insert the pipe fitting into the clamp hole 11 of the clamp body 1, and then grip the two extension arms 2 with your hand to narrow the opening 13. The inner wall of the clamp hole 11 clamps the pipe fitting, and the pipe fitting can be rotated at this time. The rotation process is effortless. After disassembly, release the two extension arms 2, the clamp body 1 elastically returns to its original position, the opening 13 returns to its original position, and the clamp hole 11 releases the pipe fitting.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the clamp body 1 has multiple specifications to match pipe fittings of different diameters. The clamp body 1 itself has a simple structure and occupies little space, so the various specifications of clamp bodies 1 are easy to carry. At the same time, a set of extension arms 2 can be equipped for the various specifications of clamp bodies 1, so only one set of extension arms 2 needs to be carried to disassemble pipe fittings of various diameters. In this embodiment, the lightweight optical pipe wrench can be used in a kit application mode, without the need to equip each clamp body 1 with an extension arm 2, thus saving costs.

[0038] In some embodiments, extended arms 2 of various lengths may also be provided to allow for selection of a suitable lever arm length, making it easier to disassemble the pipe fittings.

[0039] In some embodiments, to avoid the clamp body 1 scratching the pipe fitting, such as Figure 1 As shown, a rubber pad 16 is provided on the inner side of the clamp hole 11. The rubber pad 16 may be glued to the clamp body 1 or embedded and fixed to the clamp body 1.

[0040] In some embodiments, to further facilitate the application of force, such as Figure 1 As shown, an additional arm 17 is provided on the clamp body 1 on the other side of the pressure arm 12. Thus, when the pipe is too tight, one hand can hold the two extended arms 2 and rotate them in one direction, while the other hand holds the additional arm 17 and rotates them in the same direction.

[0041] In some embodiments, to facilitate the rapid assembly and disassembly of the extended arm 2 onto the pressure arm 12, such as... Figure 2-5 As shown, the inner and outer sides of the pressure arm 12 are respectively provided with a first slot 14 and a second slot 15; the first slot 14 includes a first straight groove section 141 and a first insertion section 142, the first straight groove section 141 is arranged along the length direction of the pressure arm 12, one end of the first insertion section 142 is connected to the first straight groove section 141, and the other end of the first insertion section 142 is open on the inner side wall of the pressure arm 12; the second slot 15 includes a second straight groove section 151 and a second insertion section 152, the second straight groove section 151 is arranged along the length direction of the pressure arm 12. The second insertion section 152 is configured along its length, with one end connected to the second straight groove section 151, and the other end of the second insertion section 152 open on the outer side wall of the pressure arm 12. The extended arm 2 is provided with a slot 21 for the pressure arm 12 to be inserted into. The slot 21 is provided with a first locking post 22 and a second locking post 23. The first locking post 22 is slidably disposed in the first locking groove 14, and the second locking post 23 is slidably disposed in the second locking groove 15. A gap is formed between the first locking post 22 and the second locking post 23 to allow the pressure arm 12 to pass through.

[0042] The first straight groove section 141 is perpendicular to the first locking section 142, and the first locking section 142 is connected to the end of the first straight groove section 141 near the clamp hole 11. The second straight groove section 151 is perpendicular to the second locking section 152, and the second locking section 152 is connected to the end of the second straight groove section 151 near the clamp hole 11. The first slot 14 is closer to the clamp hole 11 than the second slot 15. To ensure the stability of the extended arm 2 structure, the extended arm 2 is a metal part.

[0043] Thus, when it is necessary to disassemble the extended arm 2, such as Figure 4 As shown, first push the extended arm 2 to move the first locking pin 22 along the first straight groove section 141 and the second locking pin 23 along the second straight groove section 151; then rotate the extended arm 2 to move the first locking pin 22 away from the first locking section 142 and the second locking pin 23 away from the second locking section 152; finally, as shown... Figure 5 As shown, the pressure arm 12 is pulled out from between the first locking post 22 and the second locking post 23. Correspondingly, the assembly process of the extension arm 2 follows the same principle. During the above assembly / disassembly process, no additional tools or screw-tightening operations are required, making it simple, convenient, and quick.

[0044] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, both the inner walls of the first straight groove section 141 and the second straight groove section 151 are provided with protrusions 143. The protrusions 143 are used to prevent the first locking pin 22 / second locking pin 23 from sliding within the first straight groove section 141 / second straight groove section 151. In this way, the protrusions 143 can block the first locking pin 22 / second locking pin 23, improving the stability of the first locking pin 22 / second locking pin 23 within the first straight groove section 141 / second straight groove section 151 and preventing the extended arm 2 from easily shaking during use; during assembly / disassembly, the extended arm 2 must be pushed forcefully to allow the first locking pin 22 / second locking pin 23 to pass over the protrusions 143.

[0045] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
