Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting pliers technology, and in particular to a self-locking cutting pliers. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure the normal operation of the subway, numerous devices need to be installed along the trackside to realize the various functions of the subway. The power and communication cables of this equipment require sufficiently strong steel cable ties for binding and securing, thus preventing loose cables from encroaching on the tracks and affecting subway safety. Currently, there are no suitable tools for using steel cable ties; only diagonal pliers or pliers can be used to tighten and cut off the excess ties. Pliers have limited tightening power, and diagonal pliers have a small lever arm ratio, are not labor-saving enough, and their diagonal blades are not sharp enough, requiring only people with strong arms to successfully cut the steel cable ties. During the use of steel cable ties, due to their high strength, the tightness is insufficient, failing to properly secure the trackside cables, leading to cable loosening and affecting train safety. The inconvenience of cutting the steel cable ties also affects the work efficiency of maintenance personnel; some uncut excess steel cable ties remain on the cables, posing a certain safety hazard.

[0003] Therefore, a self-locking shearing pliers is provided to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The same reference numerals used throughout the drawings indicate the same or similar parts.

[0038] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, when a feature is referred to as "fixed" or "connected" to another feature, it can be directly fixed or connected to the other feature, or it can be indirectly fixed or connected to the other feature. Furthermore, the descriptions of "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" used in this utility model are only relative to the relative positional relationships of the various components of this utility model in the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 8 A self-locking pair of pliers includes a blade pliers 1, a tightening pliers 2, a connector 3, and a rotating blade 4.

[0040] In one embodiment, the pliers 1 includes a pliers head 11 for inserting the steel cable tie 7; the tightening pliers 2 includes a tightening pliers head 21 and a clamping mechanism 22 for clamping the steel cable tie 7, the clamping mechanism 22 being located at the tightening pliers head 21; the tightening pliers 2 is rotatably connected to the pliers 1 via a connector 3; the rotating pliers blade 4 is rotatably connected to the pliers head 11 to cut the steel cable tie 7.

[0041] In this invention, the steel cable tie 7 is inserted into the pliers head 11, and the clamping mechanism 22 of the tightening pliers 2 tightens the steel cable tie 7 quickly and effectively. After tightening, the rotating pliers blade 4 easily cuts the steel cable tie 7 inside the pliers head 11, effectively improving the efficiency of cable binding. This self-locking pliers not only cuts but also tightens the steel cable tie 7, facilitating the laying of trackside equipment cables and greatly improving the efficiency of trackside cable laying. The improved tightening effect of the steel cable tie 7 and the removal of excess cable ties significantly enhance the stability of trackside cables, thereby improving subway operation safety.

[0042] In one embodiment, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the pliers head 11 includes an inlet groove 111, a shearing chamber 112, and an outlet groove 113. The shearing chamber 112 connects the inlet groove 111 and the outlet groove 113. Grooves of corresponding specifications can be designed for steel cable ties 7 of different thicknesses, allowing for use with the appropriate steel cable ties 7.

[0043] In one embodiment, refer to Figures 7-8As shown, the rotary pliers 4 includes a cutter head 41 and a handle 42. The cutter head 41 is fixedly connected to the handle 42. The rear end of the cutter head 41 connected to the handle 42 is cylindrical, and the front end of the cutter head 41 is semi-cylindrical. The semi-cylindrical cutter head 41 is flush with the groove and is located above the shearing chamber 112. The cutter head 41 rotates within the shearing chamber 112 and is used to cut the steel cable tie 7. When the handle 42 is rotated, the semi-cylindrical cutter head 41 cuts the steel cable tie 7 in the shearing chamber 112 counterclockwise. The rotation angle between the pliers head 11 and the rotary pliers 4 is 0°-90°. The steel cable tie 7 enters from the inlet groove 111, passes through the shearing chamber 112, and exits from the outlet groove 113. When it is necessary to cut the steel cable tie 7, the handle is rotated counterclockwise by 45°, and the cutter head 41 cuts the steel cable tie 7 within the shearing chamber 112. Preferably, the lever arm ratio of the handle 42 to the cutter head 41 is 25, which significantly saves effort and can easily cut the steel cable ties 7.

[0044] In one embodiment, the self-locking pliers further includes a spring-loaded member 5, which connects the jaws of the pliers 1 and the jaws of the tightening pliers 2. The connector 3 works in conjunction with the spring-loaded member to achieve the pressing and resetting of the pliers 1 and the tightening pliers 2.

[0045] In one embodiment, refer to Figures 5-6 As shown, the clamping mechanism 22 includes a tightening tooth block 221, an abutment block 222, and a resetting member 223. The tightening tooth block 221 is rotatably connected to the clamping jaws 21, the abutment block 222 is fixedly connected to the clamping jaws 21, and the tightening tooth block 221 is connected to the resetting member 223. The tightening tooth block 221 includes a first abutment surface 2211 and a second abutment surface 2212, and the abutment block 222 includes a third abutment surface 2221. The first abutment surface 2211 and the third abutment surface 2221 are used to clamp the steel cable tie 7, and the second abutment surface 2212 abuts against or separates from the pliers jaws 11. Preferably, the first abutment surface 2211 is serrated, the abutment block 222 is rectangular, and the resetting member 223 is a spring. When the tightening pliers 2 and the knife pliers 1 are in normal condition, the second abutting surface 2212 of the tightening tooth block 221 abuts against the knife pliers head 11, and the first abutting surface 2211 and the third abutting surface 2221 separate, and the steel cable tie 7 passes between the first abutting surface 2211 and the third abutting surface 2221. When the tightening pliers 2 and the knife pliers 1 are pressed together, the second abutting surface 2212 of the tightening tooth block 221 separates from the knife pliers head 11, and the tightening tooth block 221 rotates counterclockwise under the action of the reset member 223, so that the first abutting surface 2211 and the third abutting surface 2221 engage and fix the steel cable tie 7 inserted therein.

[0046] In one embodiment, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the self-locking pliers also include a sheath 6. The pliers 1 has a first handle, and the tightening pliers 2 has a second handle. The sheath 6 is fitted onto the first and second handles. The sheath 6 is made of a wear-resistant material and can be a non-slip plastic sheath 6 or a rubber sheath 6.

[0047] Other aspects of the self-locking shears described in this utility model are found in the prior art and will not be repeated here.
