Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable tie technology, specifically an easy-to-remove cable tie. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, cable ties are commonly used to bundle wire harnesses. They are characterized by quick binding, good insulation, self-locking fastening, and ease of use, and are widely used for securing internal wiring and cables in electronic and mechanical equipment. Because the cable tie uses a locking plate and toothed design to prevent slippage, it can only tighten further, ensuring the secureness and stability of the binding.

[0003] Currently, existing cable ties are difficult to remove because the locking plate is located inside the cable tie connecting block. This makes it hard to pry the locking plate up with your fingers, preventing the cable tie from being untied. As a result, users have to cut the cable tie and re-use a new one when they need to add or remove other items, leading to a waste of resources. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an easy-to-remove cable tie to solve the problem mentioned in the background art. In the current cable ties, the locking plate is located inside the cable tie connecting block, and it is difficult to pry up the locking plate with your fingers, so the cable tie cannot be untied and removed. As a result, when users need to add or remove binding materials, they can only cut the cable tie and re-bind it with a new cable tie, which causes waste of resources.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an easy-to-remove cable tie, including a cable tie connector, a locking cavity on the surface of the cable tie connector, a hand-held plate fixedly connected to the top surface of the cable tie connector, a movable opening at the front end of the hand-held plate on the top surface of the cable tie connector, and the movable opening communicating with the locking cavity, a locking block connected inside the locking cavity, and an upwardly extending pressing plate fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block, and the pressing plate movable within the movable opening.

[0006] Preferably, the locking block and the pressing plate are designed as an integral molding structure.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the cable tie connector is fixedly connected to the cable tie body, the surface of the cable tie body is provided with a connection position, and the connection position is provided with slots.

[0008] Preferably, the cable tie body is movably connected between the bottom of the locking block and the surface of the locking cavity, and the bottom surface of the locking block engages with the slot.

[0009] Beneficial effects

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] This invention, by incorporating a handheld plate and a pressing plate, allows users to easily press down on the pressing plate at the movable opening with their thumb or forefinger by simply holding the handheld plate with one hand. This pressing action directly drives the locking block to release the engagement between its bottom and the slot on the cable tie body; this significantly increases the reusability of the cable tie, effectively saving resources, reducing operating costs, and aligning with environmental protection principles.

[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "front," "rear," "inner," "outer," "vertical," and "horizontal," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0019] like Figure 1-2This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an easy-removable cable tie according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the easy-removable cable tie includes a cable tie connector 2, a locking cavity 21 on the surface of the connector 2, a handheld plate 5 fixedly connected to the top surface of the connector 2, and a movable opening 22 at the front end of the handheld plate 5 on the top surface of the connector 2, which communicates with the locking cavity 21. A locking block 3 is connected inside the locking cavity 21, and an upwardly extending pressing plate 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block 3, moving within the movable opening 22. Specifically, a handheld plate 5 is provided at the top of the connector 2, and a movable opening 22 is provided at its front end, so that the pressing plate 4, which is integrated with the locking block 3, is partially exposed above the movable opening 22. This design allows the user to easily press down the pressing plate 4 at the movable opening with their thumb or forefinger by simply holding the handheld plate 5 with one hand. The downward pressing action can directly drive the locking block 3 to lift up, instantly releasing the engagement and locking state between the bottom of the locking block 3 and the slot 12 on the cable tie body 1.

[0020] In this embodiment, the locking block 3 and the pressing plate 4 adopt an integral molding structure design, which ensures the connection strength and action consistency between the driving component pressing plate and the locking component locking block, and improves the reliability and durability of the overall structure.

[0021] In this embodiment, the bottom of the cable tie connector 2 is fixedly connected to the cable tie body 1. The surface of the cable tie body 1 is provided with a connection position 11, and the connection position 11 is provided with slots 12, which are unidirectional inclined tooth-shaped structures.

[0022] In this embodiment, the cable tie body 1 is movably connected between the bottom of the locking block 3 and the surface of the locking cavity 21, and the bottom surface of the locking block 3 engages with the slot 12. Specifically, the free end of the cable tie body 1 passes through the locking cavity 21 and is clamped between the bottom of the locking block 3 and the inner wall of the locking cavity 21; under normal conditions, the protruding position at the bottom of the locking block 3 is engaged in the slot 12 of the cable tie body 1, achieving one-way locking.

[0023] Working principle

[0024] Locked state: Pull the free end of the cable tie body 1, and the wedge-shaped protrusion 31 slides and engages with the inclined surface of the slot 12 to achieve gradual tightening.

[0025] Unlocked state: The user presses down on the pressure plate 4 with one hand, causing the locking block 3 to move upward, so that the protruding part at the bottom of the locking block 3 disengages from the slot 12. At this time, the cable tie body 1 can slide freely in both directions within the locking cavity 21, achieving quick release or removal.

[0026] The above description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present utility model. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims submitted by the present utility model.
