DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the following embodiments will be further described. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and do not limit the present utility model.
[0024] The present utility model relates to a special tool, particularly suitable for disassembling Siemens ET200S series modules. The tool includes two insulating handles 53, which are rotationally connected by a connecting shaft 54. The end of one of the insulating handles is equipped with a left clamping arm 52, and the end of the other insulating handle is equipped with a right clamping arm 51.
[0025] A notch 520 is designed on the left clamping arm on the right clamping arm side, which is used to engage with the lower edge of the module mounting rail 1. The length of the right clamping arm 51 is greater than that of the left clamping arm 52, and at the end of the left clamping arm 52, the right clamping arm 51 has a first bend 510 perpendicular to the direction of the left clamping arm 52. At the end of the first bend 510, a second bend 511 is provided perpendicularly to the direction of the insulating handle 53.
[0026] Regarding specific dimensions, the height of the first bend 510 ranges from 2.8 to 3.0 cm; the height of the second bend 511 ranges from 5 to 10 mm. The shape of the notch is rectangular or V-shaped, and in this example, a rectangle is preferred.
[0027] It is worth noting that both the right clamping arm 51 and the left clamping arm 52 are designed to be tapered or tapered. This design makes the thickness or outer circumference of the connection with the insulating handle 53 gradually decrease from one end to the other, forming a smooth transition structure that helps reduce friction and resistance during use.
[0028] Traditional disassembly methods and problems: such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the ET200S series modules are typically mounted on guide rail 1, with adjacent modules 2 and 3 connected and secured by clips 21 and slots 34. The traditional disassembly method involves inserting a screwdriver into the lower end (33) of module 3 and pulling downwards to move clip 31 downwards, thus creating space in slot 34 so that clip 21 of module 2 can disengage from slot 34 of module 3. However, because the modules are made of plastic, they are prone to aging and becoming brittle after prolonged use. When the screwdriver is pulled forcefully, the plastic head at the lower part of clip 31 often breaks, preventing the screwdriver from pulling clip 31 and thus making it impossible to separate modules 2 and 3.
[0029] The disassembly method of this utility model: as follows Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when module 2 needs to be replaced and the clip 31 of module 3 is damaged at position 33, the special tool 5 of this utility model can be used for disassembly. The specific operation is as follows: insert the right clamping arm 51 of the tool along the gap between module 2 and guide rail 1 into the back of module 2, and continue to go deeper into the back of module 3, so that the second bend 511 of the right clamping arm 51 of the tool 5 is locked at the corresponding position 32 of module 3; then, the notch 520 on the left clamping arm 52 of the tool 5 is locked on the lower edge 12 of guide rail 1; then, pinch the two insulated handles 53 of the tool 5 with your right hand. At this time, observe the lower edge 33 of module 3, and you will find that the clip 31 has been pushed out a little by the tool 5, indicating that the clip 21 of module 2 can be separated from module 3; at this time, keep your right hand in a holding position and move module 2 to the right with your left hand to separate it from module 3; after the gap between module 2 and 3 becomes larger, you can release your right hand and take out the tool 5. At this time, module 2 can be removed normally.
[0030] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
