[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] This utility model provides a handheld Lock ring crimping device, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes:

[0022] Drive unit 1, drive unit 1 is a cylindrical structure for handheld use;

[0023] The clamp body 2 is threadedly installed at the front end of the drive device 1;

[0024] Two jaw assemblies 3 are provided, with their ends hinged to the jaw body 2 and arranged in a V-shape to form a symmetrical structure. The front ends of the two jaws are movably connected by the first positioning pin 4, the second positioning pin 5, and the third positioning pin 6, respectively.

[0025] The device uses a drive unit 1 to bring one end of two clamping jaw assemblies 3 close to each other, thereby achieving a clamping connection between the two pipes. This replaces the traditional open flame welding process, which not only greatly reduces the occurrence of safety accidents, but also eliminates the need for flux, significantly reducing costs. Furthermore, the device is easy to operate and requires minimal skill from the operator.

[0026] In this embodiment, the drive device 1 includes a cylinder body 11, a hydraulic cylinder 12, a top member 13, a connector 14, and a button seat 15. The hydraulic cylinder 12 is disposed inside one end of the cylinder body 11, and the connector 14 is threadedly connected to the other end of the cylinder body 11. One end of the cylinder body 11 is threadedly connected to the clamp body 2. The piston end of the hydraulic cylinder 12 is connected to the top member 13, and the two sides of the top member 13 respectively abut against and contact the two clamp claw assemblies 3. The button seat 15 is detachably installed at one end of the cylinder body 11.

[0027] Specifically, during operation, pressing the button seat 15 activates the hydraulic cylinder 12. The piston end of the hydraulic cylinder 12 drives the front end of the top piece 13 to move, causing the top piece 13 to squeeze the ends of the two jaw assemblies 3, bringing the other point of the two jaw assemblies 3 closer to each other, thus achieving a tight connection of the pipe body. The operation is simple and convenient, and the use of a hydraulic system ensures the effect and stability of the crimping.

[0028] In this embodiment, the jaw assembly 3 includes a jaw 31 and a pressure claw 32, wherein the end of the jaw 31 is hinged to the jaw body 2, and one end of the pressure claw 32 is hinged to the front end of the jaw 31.

[0029] Specifically, the clamp 31 is in an inclined state, and the pressure claw 32 is in a horizontal state. When the end of the clamp 31 is raised, the pressure claw 32 moves downward under the action of the hinge, thereby achieving the crimping of the tube body.

[0030] In this embodiment, the pliers 31 includes a main body 311, wherein the front end of the main body 311 is provided with a U-shaped groove 312 for mounting the pressure claw 32, the rear bottom surface of the main body 311 is provided with an inclined surface 313, and a roller 314 is rotatably mounted at the end of the inclined surface 313. The front end of the top member 13 is a sharp structure, and the two sides of the sharp structure respectively abut against the roller 314.

[0031] Specifically, when the top member 13 moves forward, both sides of the top member 13 press against the contact roller 314 and cause the roller 314 to rotate. When the top member 13 continues to move forward, in cooperation with the inclined surface, the end of the clamp 31 is raised, thereby causing the pressure claw 32 to move downward and realize the crimping of the tube body.

[0032] Several points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connection, or internal connection between two components, or direct connection. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationship. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may change.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art based on the content disclosed in the present utility model should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
