Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe cutter technology, specifically to a pipe cutter with double fixing pins. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of pipe processing and installation, pipe cutters are a commonly used tool for cutting various types of pipes. With the continuous development of industries such as industrial production and construction, higher requirements are being placed on the performance and durability of pipe cutters.

[0003] Currently, most pipe cutters on the market use a detachable blade structure, which facilitates blade replacement and maintenance to some extent. For example, patent number CN219234126U provides a button-type blade changer pipe cutter, which includes a housing and a movable handle mounted on the housing. The blade is detachably mounted on the movable handle via a quick-change mechanism. The movable handle has a blade groove, in which the blade is inserted, and the shape of the blade insertion end matches the shape of the blade groove.

[0004] In the above structure, when performing pipe shearing operations, the shearing force borne by the blade is directly transmitted and acts on the movable handle. Since most existing movable handles are made of die-cast aluminum, and aluminum itself is relatively soft, when the blade frequently contacts and rubs against the movable handle under continuous shearing force, it will cause the blade and movable handle to wear faster, shorten their service life, and also affect the stability and reliability of the cutting operation. It may even lead to dangerous situations such as blade loosening during use. Utility Model Content

[0034] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a double-fixed-pin pipe cutter, including a housing 1 and a movable handle 2 hinged within the housing 1. For ease of manufacturing, the housing 1 adopts a split structure, that is, it is formed by combining two separate housings. A blade 3 is detachably mounted on the end of the movable handle 2, and the end of the movable handle 2 is provided with a insertion groove 201 for inserting the blade 3. An insertion port is provided on the outer side of the insertion groove 201.

[0035] See Figures 2 to 5 The end of the movable handle 2 is provided with a double fixing pin structure. This structure is configured to bear the force of the blade 3 during shearing, thereby preventing direct contact between the blade 3 and the movable handle 2. The double fixing pin structure includes a first fixing pin 41 and a second fixing pin 42 passing through the insertion slot 201, arranged at an oblique interval. Specifically, the first fixing pin 41 is located at one end of the insertion slot 201, and the second fixing pin 42 is located near the insertion opening of the insertion slot 201. A first slot 301 adapted to the first fixing pin 41 is provided on one side of the blade 3, and a second slot 302 adapted to the second fixing pin 42 is provided inside the blade 3.

[0036] This structure, by incorporating a double-fixed-pin design at the end of the movable handle, allows the first and second fixed pins to bear the force of the blade, preventing direct contact between the blade and the movable handle. Compared to traditional structures, this significantly reduces the wear rate caused by direct friction between the blade and the movable handle, extending their service life and reducing the cost and time associated with frequent blade replacements and handle repairs. Furthermore, this double-fixed-pin structure does not interfere with the quick-release function of the blade; removing the blade simply requires pressing the locking mechanism and pulling it out, making it highly practical.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the housing 1 and the movable handle 2 are hinged by a central pin 5. The movable handle 2 can rotate around the central pin 5, thereby causing the blade 3 to move closer to or away from the blade holder 101 of the housing 1. The central pin 5 passes through the insertion groove 201, and the blade 3 is provided with a third slot 303 that matches the central pin 5; the first fixing pin 41, the second fixing pin 42, and the central pin 5 are arranged in a triangle. In this structure, the blade is provided with a first slot and a second slot that match the double fixing pins, and the first fixing pin, the second fixing pin, and the central pin are arranged in a triangle. This structural design provides stable support for the blade, making it less prone to shaking or displacement during cutting, thereby significantly improving the stability and reliability of the cutting operation and ensuring cutting quality.

[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the insertion end of the blade 3 is provided with a limiting plate 31 and a locking plate 32 spaced apart. The first slot 301 and the third slot 303 are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the limiting plate 31, and the second slot 302 is arranged between the limiting plate 31 and the locking plate 32. In this structure, the three slots are reasonably arranged, and the three pins will not interfere with the insertion of the blade 3. When installing the blade 3, it is only necessary to insert it. The design is reasonable.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the end of the movable handle 2 is provided with a first through hole 202 and a second through hole 203. A first fixing pin 41 passes through the first through hole 202, and a second fixing pin 42 passes through the second through hole 203. In order to simplify the structure, the first fixing pin 41 and the second fixing pin 42 have the same structure; this structure makes it easy to install the two pins and reduces the installation difficulty.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, a locking member 6 is movably mounted on the outer wall of the insertion slot 201, and the locking member 6 is used to lock the blade 3. The locking member 6 is provided with a locking head 601 that can extend into the insertion slot 201, and the insertion end of the blade 3 is provided with a locking groove 306 that can engage with the locking head 601. When the locking head 601 is placed in the locking groove 306, the blade 3 is locked; when the locking head 601 is disengaged from the locking groove 306, the blade 3 is unlocked. The middle part of the locking member 6 is hinged to the outer wall of the movable handle 2, the locking head 601 is located at one end of the locking member 6, and the other end of the locking member 6 is provided with a pressing part 602. When unlocking, pressing the pressing part 602 causes the locking head 601 to disengage from the locking groove 306.

[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, a spring 7 is installed between the pressing part 602 and the movable handle 2. The spring 7 always tends to make the locking head 601 move toward the insertion groove 201. A spring groove 204 is provided on the movable handle 2, and a spring post 603 is provided at the pressing part 602. One end of the spring 7 is placed in the spring groove 204, and the other end of the spring 7 is fitted on the spring post 603.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with a blade holder 101 corresponding to the blade 3, and the blade holder 101 is provided with a cutting groove 102 for the blade 3 to enter. A torsion spring 8 is installed between the housing 1 and the movable handle 2, and the torsion spring 8 always makes the movable handle 2 tend to move away from the housing 1; a U-shaped frame 9 is hinged to the end of the movable handle 2, and the U-shaped frame 9 can be fitted onto the end of the housing 1 to keep the movable handle 2 in a closed state when stored.

In particular, the descriptions of the embodiments described later are relatively simple, and relevant parts can be referred to the descriptions of the foregoing embodiments.

[0044] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
