Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cable installation technology, and in particular relates to a tool for threading aviation cable ties. Background Technology
[0002] In the aviation industry, cables and conduits need to be organized and securely bundled. During the installation and laying of wires, cables, and conduits, it is often necessary to organize and bind multiple cables to ensure the neatness of the internal electrical components and facilitate subsequent maintenance.
[0003] However, the existing equipment has the following drawbacks: when it is necessary to add another cable to the bundled cable, the existing cable ties need to be cut, and then the new cable and the original cable need to be arranged together and then fixed with another cable tie. Since the cables are scattered and messy, they need to be reorganized when fixed again. Operators need to spend a lot of time and effort to tie and fix the cables, which affects the installation efficiency of the cables. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an aviation cable tie threading tool that is simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost, time-saving and labor-saving, and can greatly improve the efficiency of cable installation.

[0026] like Figures 1-4The diagram shows a cable tie threading tool for aviation cables according to this utility model. It includes a handle 33, a spoon 3 for inserting into and storing newly added cables 5 within the cable bundle, and a clamping mechanism 4 for pressing and securing the newly added cables 5. The rear end of the spoon 3 is connected to the front end of the handle 33, and the clamping mechanism 4 is mounted on the handle 33. The outer surface of the handle 33 is covered with a rubber layer. In this embodiment, the newly added cable 5 is a single cable.
[0027] The spoon body 3 consists of a bottom surface and baffles 32 on both sides. The bottom surface is an arc surface adapted to the newly added cable 5, and the front part of the bottom surface is a pointed tip 31. The width of the pointed tip 31 gradually increases from front to back. The baffles 32 extend from the rear end of the pointed tip 31 to the rear end of the bottom surface to form a cable storage groove 3201 for storing the newly added cable 5.
[0028] The spoon body 3 is composed of a front section and a rear section. The front section is composed of a tip 31 and a part with a front edge 32, and the rear section is a part with a rear edge 32. The included angle between the front section and the rear section is 100° to 175°.
[0029] The clamping mechanism 4 includes a mounting base 41, an operating member 43, a clamping member, and a connecting block 431. The clamping member includes a fixing frame 42 and a clamping head mounted on the fixing frame 42. A mounting groove 3301 is formed on the upper front surface of the handle 33, and the mounting base 41 is fixed in the mounting groove 3301. The mounting base 41 has a first connecting protrusion 411 and a second connecting protrusion 412. The middle part of the operating member 43 is hinged to the upper end of the connecting block 431, and the front end is hinged to the rear end of the fixing frame 42. The lower end of the connecting block 431 is hinged to the second connecting protrusion 412 of the mounting base 41, and the rear end of the fixing frame 42 is hinged to the first connecting protrusion 411 of the mounting base 41. Depending on the actual situation, a return spring is provided at the hinge, specifically a torsion spring. The mounting slot 3301 provides a stable mounting base for the clamping mechanism 4, ensuring that the clamping mechanism 4 can be firmly fixed to the handle 33 and is not easy to fall off or loosen. The fixing bracket 42 is fixed to the handle 33 through the mounting base 41, which further enhances the stability of the entire structure, so that it can maintain its position even when subjected to external forces during use. The design of the operating component 43 allows the installation position of the fixing bracket 42 to be adjusted according to actual needs. When the new cable 5 is inserted into the storage slot 3201, the operating component 43 is rotated, causing the fixing bracket 42 to rotate on the mounting base 41 to fix the new cable 5 inside the storage slot 3201. Then the new cable 5 is moved to the side closer to the cable tie 2, then passes through the cable tie 2 and is fixed in the cable tie 2, completing the work of increasing the number of cables, which greatly saves the time and effort of cable installation.
[0030] The fixed frame 42 is integrally formed of a swing plate 422 and a rotating block 421. The rotating block 421 is connected to the rear end of the swing plate 422. The clamping member is integrally formed of a fixed rod 423 and a fixed block 424. The fixed block 424 is connected to the lower end of the fixed rod 423. The fixed rod 423 is adjustable up and down and installed at the front end of the swing plate 422. The rotating block 421 is hinged to the first connecting protrusion 411 of the mounting base 41 and the front end of the operating member 43. The operating member 43 is integrally formed of a handle 433 at the rear, an adjusting rod 432 in the middle, and a connecting rod 4321 at the front. The adjusting rod 432 is hinged to the connecting block 431, and the connecting rod 4321 is hinged to the rotating block 421.
[0031] Rotating the operating component 43 causes the rotating block 421 to rotate along the first connecting protrusion 411. Then, the swing plate 422 drives the fixing rod 423 to move into the wire storage groove 3201, so that the fixing block 424 squeezes and fixes the newly added cable 5 in the wire storage groove 3201. This design makes the newly added cable 5 more stable during installation, less prone to loosening or falling off, which can greatly save operation time and improve work efficiency.
[0032] By rotating the handle 433, the adjusting rod 432 can be easily driven to rotate around the connecting block 431. The fixed connection between the adjusting rod 432 and the connecting rod 4321, and the connection between the connecting rod 4321 and the rotating block 421, constitute a stable transmission mechanism. By rotating the handle 433, the rotation angle of the rotating block 421 can be precisely controlled, thereby achieving fine adjustment of the position of the fixed block 424. The connecting block 431 is rotatably mounted on the second connecting protrusion 412, providing a stable support for the operating component 43. At the same time, the tight connection between the adjusting rod 432 and the connecting rod 4321, and the reliable connection between the connecting rod 4321 and the rotating block 421, enhance the stability of the entire structure, making it less likely for the components to loosen or misalign during operation.
[0033] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to add a new cable 5 to the already bundled cable harness 1, insert the tip 31 of the spoon body 3 of this tool into the cable tie 2. Since the cable harness 1 has a certain amount of slack and loose space in the cable tie 2, the storage slot of the spoon body 3 can be easily inserted into the cable tie 2; then insert the head of the new cable 5 into the storage slot from the tip 31. After the head of the new cable 5 moves to the bottom of the clamping mechanism 4, operate the clamping mechanism 4 to fix the head of the new cable 5 (see...). Figure 3 Then, the new cable 5 is pulled out of the cable tie 2, and the storage slot and tip 31 are removed from the cable tie 2 together. At this time, the new cable 5 is fixed inside the cable tie 2. See Figure 4The force applied to handle 433 is released, and the clamping mechanism 4 returns to its original state under the restoring force of the return spring. The clamping mechanism 4 then releases the newly added cable 5, completing the addition of cables. This tool eliminates the need for cable ties 2 to secure the cables, significantly improving the efficiency of cable installation and organization.
[0034] The embodiments of this utility model are not limited to this. Based on the above content of this utility model, and in accordance with the common technical knowledge and conventional means in the field, without departing from the basic technical idea of this utility model, the clamping mechanism of this utility model may have other embodiments. Therefore, this utility model can also be modified, replaced or changed in various other forms, all of which fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
