Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable tie technology, and specifically to a cable tie binding auxiliary device. Background Technology

[0002] Cable ties, also known as wire ties, cable bundles, or locking straps, are straps used to bundle things together. Existing cable ties include: a head, a body, and a tail. The head has interlocking teeth within its interlocking channel; the body has continuous oblique teeth evenly distributed throughout; the tail passes through the interlocking channel and engages with the oblique teeth for fixation. Reinforcing ribs are provided at the base of the interlocking teeth to strengthen the bottom connection, extending to the inner sidewall of the head. A protrusion at the top of the interlocking teeth allows for manipulation. These cable ties can withstand strong vibrations without breaking and have a certain degree of weather resistance, improving safety and reliability. The protrusion at the top of the interlocking teeth allows for manipulation, enabling the cable body to be pried open and pulled out of the head when needed, allowing for reuse of the same cable tie, saving resources and protecting the environment.

[0003] Existing cable ties have the following problems: in some packaging processes, cable ties need to be taken out and used multiple times for bundling, resulting in low bundling efficiency.

[0004] Based on the above situation, there is an urgent need for a cable tie binding auxiliary device to solve the problem of low binding efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem of low bundling efficiency caused by the need to repeatedly remove and re-bundle existing cable ties in some packaging processes.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A cable tie binding auxiliary device, comprising:

[0008] A cable tie compartment, in which multiple cable ties are stored side by side;

[0009] A separating mechanism is provided at the opening of the cable tie compartment;

[0010] A pushing mechanism is installed inside the cable tie compartment and is used to push the cable ties toward the separating mechanism.

[0011] Existing cable ties require multiple handlings for bundling in some packaging processes, resulting in low bundling efficiency. In this solution, multiple cable ties are pre-loaded into a cable tie compartment. During bundling, the compartment is brought into contact with the packaged item, the outermost cable tie's tail is inserted into the head and tightened, and then a separating mechanism separates this cable tie from the others and separates the compartment. The pushing mechanism then pushes the remaining cable ties towards the separating mechanism, repeating this process. This avoids the need for multiple handlings of the cable ties, thereby improving bundling efficiency and solving the problem of low bundling efficiency.

[0012] Furthermore, this solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the pushing mechanism. One feasible solution is that the pushing mechanism includes a spring and a pushing block connected to the spring. When this solution is adopted, the cable tie compartment opening faces downward, and the cable ties fall into the separating mechanism in sequence under the action of their own weight and the pushing force of the spring.

[0013] Furthermore, to facilitate the return of the push block to the cable tie compartment, one feasible solution is to have an operating lever formed on the push block and a slide rail formed on the cable tie compartment, with the operating lever passing through the slide rail. When this solution is adopted, the push block is moved along the slide rail by the operating lever, and the spring is compressed, which can conveniently and quickly return the push block to the cable tie compartment, so as to replenish the cable tie compartment.

[0014] Furthermore, to facilitate fixing the push block in a designated position within the cable tie compartment, one feasible solution is to form a slot at the end of the slide away from the opening of the cable tie compartment. The slot is used to limit the operation lever. When this solution is adopted, moving the operation lever into the slot can fix the push block in a designated position within the cable tie compartment, which is more conducive to replenishing cable ties into the cable tie compartment.

[0015] Furthermore, to prevent the operating lever from sliding from the slot into the slide, one feasible solution is that the slot is L-shaped. With this solution, the L-shaped slot can prevent the operating lever from sliding from the slot into the slide, thus providing a better limiting effect.

[0016] Furthermore, this solution is not limited to the specific structure of the separating mechanism. One feasible solution is as follows: the separating mechanism includes a rotating plate with two limiting teeth formed on the rotating plate. A spring is provided between the rotating plate and the cable tie compartment. When this solution is adopted, after pressing the rotating plate, the lower limiting tooth retracts to separate the outermost cable tie from the cable tie compartment. At the same time, the upper limiting tooth extends to prevent the remaining cable ties from being pushed out. Then, the rotating plate is released, and the spring causes the rotating plate to reset. The lower limiting tooth extends and the upper limiting tooth retracts. The pushing mechanism then pushes one of the cable ties between the two limiting teeth, and so on.

[0017] Furthermore, in order to standardize the installation position of the cable ties, one feasible solution is to form an installation groove on the cable tie compartment for limiting the end of the cable tie. When this solution is adopted, the installation position of the cable ties can be standardized through the limiting effect of the installation groove.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. Multiple cable ties are pre-loaded into the cable tie compartment. When binding, the cable tie compartment is brought into contact with the object being bound. The tail of the outermost cable tie is inserted into the head and pulled tight. Then, the separating mechanism separates the cable tie from the other cable ties and separates the cable tie compartment. The pushing mechanism then pushes the remaining cable ties towards the separating mechanism. This process is repeated to avoid repeatedly taking out the cable ties, thereby improving binding efficiency and solving the problem of low binding efficiency.

[0020] 2. Since the push block has an operating lever, and the cable tie compartment has a slide rail with the operating lever passing through the slide rail, the push block can be moved along the slide rail by the operating lever and the spring can be compressed, so that the push block can be easily and quickly returned to the cable tie compartment to replenish the cable tie compartment.

[0021] 3. Since the separating mechanism includes a rotating plate with two limiting teeth, and a spring is provided between the rotating plate and the cable tie compartment, after pressing the rotating plate, the lower limiting tooth retracts to separate the outermost cable tie from the cable tie compartment, while the upper limiting tooth extends to prevent the remaining cable ties from being pushed out. Then the rotating plate is released, and the spring causes the rotating plate to reset. The lower limiting tooth extends and the upper limiting tooth retracts, and the pushing mechanism pushes one of the cable ties between the two limiting teeth, repeating this process.

[0033] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Unless otherwise specified, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0034] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0035] Example:

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A cable tie binding auxiliary device, comprising:

[0037] Cable tie compartment 1, which contains multiple cable ties 2 stored side by side;

[0038] The separating mechanism 3 is located at the opening of the cable tie compartment 1;

[0039] Pushing mechanism 4 is installed in cable tie compartment 1 and is used to push cable tie 2 toward separating mechanism 3.

[0040] Existing cable ties require multiple handlings for bundling in some packaging processes, resulting in low bundling efficiency. In this solution, multiple cable ties 2 are pre-loaded into the cable tie compartment 1. During bundling, the cable tie compartment 1 is brought into contact with the packaged item, the end of the outermost cable tie is inserted into the end and tightened, and then the separating mechanism 3 separates this cable tie from the other cable ties and separates it from the cable tie compartment 1. The pushing mechanism 4 then pushes the remaining cable ties towards the separating mechanism 3. This process is repeated, avoiding the need to handle the cable ties 2 multiple times, thereby improving bundling efficiency and solving the problem of low bundling efficiency.

[0041] Reference Figure 5 This solution does not limit the specific structure of the pushing mechanism 4. One feasible solution is that the pushing mechanism 4 includes a spring 41 and a pushing block 42 connected to the spring 41. When this solution is adopted, the cable tie compartment 1 is opened downwards, and the cable ties 2 fall into the separating mechanism 3 in sequence under their own weight and the pushing force of the spring 41.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 To facilitate the return of the push block 42 to the cable tie compartment 1, one feasible solution is to have an operating lever 43 formed on the push block 42, and a slide 11 formed on the cable tie compartment 1 with the operating lever 43 passing through the slide 11. When this solution is adopted, the push block 42 is moved along the slide 11 by the operating lever 43 and the spring 41 is compressed, so that the push block 42 can be returned to the cable tie compartment 1 conveniently and quickly, so as to replenish the cable tie 2 into the cable tie compartment 1.

[0043] To facilitate fixing the push block 42 to a designated position within the cable tie compartment 1, one feasible solution is to form a slot 12 at the end of the slide 11 away from the opening of the cable tie compartment 1. The slot 12 is used to limit the operation lever 43. When this solution is adopted, moving the operation lever 43 into the slot 12 can fix the push block 42 to a designated position within the cable tie compartment 1, which is more conducive to replenishing the cable ties 2 into the cable tie compartment 1.

[0044] To prevent the operating lever 43 from sliding from the slot 12 into the slide rail 11, one feasible solution is to make the slot 12 L-shaped. With this solution, the operating lever 43 can be prevented from sliding from the slot 12 into the slide rail 11, thus providing a better limiting effect.

[0045] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6This solution does not limit the specific structure of the separating mechanism 3. One feasible solution is as follows: the separating mechanism 3 includes a rotating plate 31 with two limiting teeth 32 formed on the rotating plate 31. A spring piece 33 is provided between the rotating plate 31 and the cable tie compartment 1. When this solution is adopted, after pressing the rotating plate 31, the lower limiting tooth 32 retracts to separate the outermost cable tie 2 from the cable tie compartment 1. At the same time, the upper limiting tooth 32 extends to prevent the remaining cable ties 2 from being pushed out. Then the rotating plate 31 is released and the rotating plate 31 is reset by the spring piece 33. The lower limiting tooth 32 extends and the upper limiting tooth 32 retracts. The pushing mechanism 4 then pushes one of the cable ties 2 between the two limiting teeth 32, and so on.

[0046] Preferably, in this embodiment, the rotating plate 31 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 34, and the mounting base 34 is installed on the cable tie compartment 1 by screws. When this solution is adopted, the bolts are loosened and the mounting base 34 is moved outward by one distance to avoid interference between the limiting teeth 32 and the cable tie 2 when adding cable ties 2 into the cable tie compartment 1.

[0047] To standardize the installation position of cable ties 2, one feasible solution is to form an installation groove on the cable tie compartment 1 to limit the head of the cable tie 2. When this solution is adopted, the installation position of the cable tie 2 can be standardized through the limiting effect of the installation groove.

[0048] To address the issue of low bundling efficiency, this solution pre-loads multiple cable ties 2 into the cable tie compartment 1. During bundling, the cable tie compartment 1 is brought into contact with the object being bundled. The tail of the outermost cable tie is inserted into the head and tightened. Then, the separating mechanism 3 separates this cable tie from the other cable ties and separates the cable tie compartment 1. The pushing mechanism 4 then pushes the remaining cable ties 2 towards the separating mechanism 3. This process is repeated, avoiding the need to repeatedly handle the cable ties 2, thereby improving bundling efficiency and solving the problem of low bundling efficiency.

[0049] In order to facilitate the replenishment of cable ties 2 into the cable tie compartment 1, in this solution, since an operating lever 43 is formed on the push block 42, and a slide 11 is formed on the cable tie compartment 1 with the operating lever 43 passing through the slide 11, the push block 42 is moved along the slide 11 by the operating lever 43 and the spring 41 is compressed, so that the push block 42 can be easily and quickly returned to the cable tie compartment 1 to facilitate the replenishment of cable ties 2 into the cable tie compartment 1.

[0050] To facilitate the individual ejection of cable ties 2, in this design, the separating mechanism 3 includes a rotating plate 31 with two limiting teeth 32. A spring piece 33 is provided between the rotating plate 31 and the cable tie compartment 1. After pressing the rotating plate 31, the lower limiting tooth 32 retracts, allowing the outermost cable tie 2 to separate from the cable tie compartment 1. At the same time, the upper limiting tooth 32 extends to prevent the remaining cable ties 2 from being ejected. Then, the rotating plate 31 is released, and the spring piece 33 resets the rotating plate 31. The lower limiting tooth 32 extends and the upper limiting tooth 32 retracts. The pushing mechanism 4 then pushes one of the cable ties 2 between the two limiting teeth 32, and so on.
