[0030] In the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly defined, terms such as "setup," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this application in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0031] Cable ties are existing technology. Cable ties generally include a binding head 310 and a cable body 320. One side of the cable body 320 is provided with a toothed structure along its length. The binding head 310 is provided with a locking groove for the cable body 320 to pass through. The locking groove is provided with teeth that cooperate with the toothed structure.
[0032] To solve the problem of binding operations that cannot be performed with both hands, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cable tie binding device provided in this application includes a housing 100, a tensioning mechanism, and a cutting mechanism.
[0033] The housing 100 is elongated and includes a strapping groove 104. A steering member is provided on one side of the strapping groove 104, and a positioning groove 101 is provided on the other side of the strapping groove 104. The positioning groove 101 is used to place the binding head 310 of the cable tie. The steering member is used to adjust the position of the end of the cable tie body 320 toward the positioning groove 101. The end of the cable tie body 320 can enter the locking groove of the binding head 310 to complete the initial locking.
[0034] A tensioning mechanism is provided in the housing 100 to pull the strap 320 through the bundle head 310 to further bind and lock the cable tie.
[0035] The cutting structure includes a cutting blade 130 and a trigger handle 120. The trigger handle 120 is rotatably mounted on the housing 100. During the rotation of the trigger handle 120, it can sequentially control the tensioning mechanism and the action of the cutting blade 130. Specifically, after the end of the belt 320 is inserted into the locking groove of the binding head 310, the housing 100 and the trigger handle 120 are manually held, causing the trigger handle 120 to rotate closer to the housing 100. During the rotation of the trigger handle 120, the tensioning mechanism is triggered first, which drives the belt 320 to further bind. After binding is in place, the trigger handle 120 is rotated again, so that the cutting blade 130, driven by the trigger handle 120, cuts the excess part that passes through the locking groove, thereby completing the binding of the material 400.
[0036] When bundling material 400, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cable tie head 310 is placed in the positioning groove 101, so that the cable tie body 320 is positioned on the turning component to form a U-shaped wrapping shape. Then, the material 400 is placed on the cable tie body 320, as shown. Figure 6 As shown, the steering component drives the end of the belt 320 to move toward the positioning groove 101, so that the end of the belt 320 can engage with the binding head 310, and then... Figure 7 As shown, the tensioning mechanism is driven by rotating the trigger handle 120. The tensioning mechanism causes the belt 320 to be tightened and tied. After the belt is tied in place, the trigger handle 120 is rotated again so that the cutting blade 130 can be moved to cut off the excess part of the belt 320.
[0037] The cable tie binding device of this application can align, tighten, and cut cable ties in spaces where it is impossible to operate with both hands. After the cable ties are tightened, they can be cut without changing tools, which effectively improves binding efficiency.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the strapping groove 104 is located at one end of the housing 100, and the trigger handle 120 is located at the other end of the housing 100. The strapping groove 104 and the handle are not on the same side. By placing the trigger handle 120, which is used to trigger the tensioning mechanism and the cutting blade 130, at one end of the housing 100, it is convenient for one-handed operation and will not affect the strapping operation of the strapping groove 104. The entire cable tie strapping device can also be made more compact.
[0039] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the housing 100 also includes a pulling groove 102. The binding groove 104 is located between the steering member and the pulling groove 102. The pulling groove 102 is close to the tensioning mechanism, and the steering member is away from the tensioning member. The pulling groove 102 is used for positioning the belt 320 so that the tensioning mechanism provided in the housing 100 can cooperate with the pulling groove 102 to complete the pulling of the belt 320.
[0040] In a specific embodiment, the tensioning mechanism includes a drive member 210 and a gear structure. Part of the gear structure enters the tension groove 102, and the gear structure can mesh with the tooth structure of the belt 320. The drive member 210 is used to drive the gear structure to rotate. The cross-sectional shape of the tension groove 102 is similar to the cross-sectional shape of the belt 320. Part of the teeth of the gear structure can enter the tension groove 102 and mesh with the tooth structure of the belt 320. By driving the gear structure to rotate through the drive member 210, the belt 320 can move linearly under the drive of the gear structure to bundle the material 400. There is no need for manual pulling of the belt 320, so that the straps can be tightened automatically even when hands are unable to operate.
[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the driving component 210 is a motor, which is fixed inside the housing 100. The gear structure includes a first gear 230 and a second gear 220. The first gear 230 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor, and the second gear 220 is rotatably disposed inside the housing 100. A portion of the second gear 220 enters the traction groove 102, and the first gear 230 meshes with the second gear 220.
[0042] The internal space of the housing 100 is small. If only the first gear 230 is provided, the belt body 320 may not make proper contact, resulting in slippage. By separately providing a second gear 220, the teeth of the second gear 220 are made to be similar in width to the pull groove 102, so that the tooth structure of the belt body 320 can make full contact with the teeth of the gear, thereby improving the transmission efficiency and preventing slippage.
[0043] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 7 As shown, one end of the trigger handle 120 is rotatably disposed inside the housing 100, and the other end of the trigger handle 120 extends out of the housing 100 for use by the operator.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the tensioning mechanism also includes a trigger switch 240, which is located on the movement path of the trigger handle 120. When the trigger handle 120 rotates to its position, it can touch the trigger switch 240, thereby starting the motor to rotate, thus enabling the tensioning mechanism to automatically tighten and bind the belt 320.
[0045] In some specific embodiments, the cutting blade 130 is disposed on the trigger handle 120, and the housing 100 is also provided with a guide structure for limiting the movement direction of the cutting blade 130, so that the cutting blade 130 can enter the pulling groove 102 and cooperate with the groove wall of the pulling groove 102 to complete the cutting of the belt 320. It should be noted that the cutting position of the cutting blade 130 is located between the second gear 220 and the positioning groove 101, so that the cut belt 320 waste 321 can be carried away from the pulling groove 102 by the tensioning mechanism.
[0046] In some embodiments, a collection trough 103 is also provided inside the housing 100, which is connected to the tensioning groove 102. The collection trough 103 is used to collect the waste material 321 of the cut belt 320. The housing 100 is provided with an openable cover opposite the collection trough 103. The cut waste material 321 of the belt 320 can be conveyed to the collection trough 103 by the tensioning mechanism. When the collection trough 103 is full, the waste material 321 can be removed by opening the cover to avoid affecting subsequent bundling operations.
[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the steering component includes a rotatable steering member 110, which has a steering groove 111 for limiting the belt body 320. The end of the steering groove 111 can rotate to face the positioning groove 101. The belt body 320 is positioned and limited by the steering groove 111. Then, by rotating and adjusting the steering member 110, the end position of the belt body 320 is adjusted so that the end of the belt body 320 can rotate to face the positioning groove 101. This facilitates the end of the belt body 320 entering the locking groove of the binding head 310 to complete the engagement without manual intervention, effectively solving the problem of not being able to use both hands for binding.
[0048] In this embodiment, the steering groove 111 includes a first segment and a second segment connected together, with the included angle between the first segment and the second segment set to be no less than 90°. The first segment can rotate to be collinear with the positioning groove 101. The L-shaped steering groove 111 can effectively adjust the position of the belt 320, making the adjustment of the belt 320 more convenient.
[0049] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
