In the transshipment process of express companies, the industry generally uses woven bags to sort small packages into bulk containers to improve operational efficiency. Disposable cable ties are typically used for sealing woven bags, resulting in a huge consumption of disposable cable ties. The application of reusable cable ties has significant cost reduction potential. However, there are currently no reusable cable ties on the market that are suitable for the express industry's rapid sealing of woven bags, and reusable cable ties are rarely used in the express delivery industry. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, this application provides a cable tie that solves the problem that cable ties cannot be reused.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A cable tie, comprising:

[0006] The first cable tie portion has a first end and a second end that are disposed opposite to each other, and the first cable tie portion is provided with a locking channel;

[0007] The second cable tie has one end connected to the first end, and the second cable tie can be folded relative to the first cable tie. The other end of the second cable tie is provided with a limiting pin.

[0008] A third cable tie is connected to the second end. The third cable tie can be inserted into the locking channel by bending. The limiting pin can be embedded in the locking channel to lock the third cable tie in the locking channel.

[0009] The first cable tie portion and the second cable tie portion are provided with a buckle, and the other of the first cable tie portion and the second cable tie portion are provided with a locking hole that engages with the buckle. The locking hole and the buckle engage to keep the limiting pin in the locking channel.

[0010] Optionally, the buckle includes multiple elastic engaging parts, which engage with different parts of the circumferential direction of the buckle hole, and there is a clearance space between any two elastic engaging parts.

[0011] Optionally, the locking hole is a circular hole, the multiple elastic locking parts have the same structure, and the multiple elastic locking parts are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the circular hole.

[0012] Optionally, the resilient snap-fit ​​portion includes:

[0013] The snap-fit ​​area is protrudingly disposed on the first cable tie portion or the second cable tie portion and is used to snap-fit ​​with the snap-fit ​​hole;

[0014] The pressing area is located at the protruding end of the latching area and forms a flat surface that can withstand the unlocking force.

[0015] Optionally, the cross-sectional dimensions of the pressing area gradually decrease in the radial direction of the card hole and towards the center.

[0016] Optionally, both the first cable tie portion and the second cable tie portion are provided with a widening portion, the widening portion including a first region and a second region, and the buckle or the buckle hole is provided in the first region.

[0017] Optionally, the widened portion of the first cable tie includes a third region, the locking channel is disposed in the third region, and the third region is provided with a weight reduction portion.

[0018] Optionally, the surface of the third cable tie is provided with locking teeth, and the locking channel is provided with reverse teeth for engaging with the locking teeth, and the connection between the reverse teeth and the inner wall of the locking channel is provided with reinforcing ribs.

[0019] Optionally, the reinforcing rib is disposed at the end and / or middle of the reverse tooth along its length.

[0020] Optionally, the reverse teeth, the locking channel, and the first cable tie portion are integrally formed.

[0022] Optionally, the length of the limiting pin is less than the length of the locking channel.

[0023] The express box provided in this application, when using cable ties to bundle an item, bends the third cable tie to wrap around the portion of the item to be bundled, inserts the end of the third cable tie away from the first cable tie into the locking channel, and then rotates the second cable tie to insert the limiting pin at the end of the second cable tie away from the first cable tie into the locking channel. The buckles and holes on the first and second cable ties are engaged to keep the limiting pin in the locking channel. In this way, the limiting pin will squeeze the third cable tie inserted into the locking channel, so that the third cable tie abuts against the locking channel, thereby locking and limiting the cable tie so that the cable tie can complete the bundling of the item. When it is necessary to untie the cable ties, press the buckle on the protruding side to disengage it from the locking hole. Then, rotate the second cable tie section to move the limiting pin located at the end of the second cable tie section away from the label structure out of the locking channel, thereby releasing the locking channel from limiting the third cable tie section. Finally, move the third cable tie section out of the locking channel to untie the cable tie. This design allows for the reuse of cable ties, reducing costs and increasing efficiency, thus improving the utilization rate of cable ties.

[0024] Furthermore, when it is necessary to remove the cable tie from its locked state, the operator can hold the cable tie's label structure and press the snap-fit ​​part between the buckle and the locking hole with their fingers to remove the buckle from the locking hole, thus releasing the engagement between the buckle and the locking hole. Then, the operator can apply force to the side of the cable tie's label structure away from the third cable tie section to remove the third cable tie section from the locking channel, facilitating the removal of the cable tie. Compared to the side-locking design between the second and first cable tie sections, this method saves time and effort for the operator, allowing for convenient removal with just one hand, thus improving the efficiency of cable tie removal.

[0036] This application provides a cable tie that solves the problem that cable ties cannot be reused.

[0037] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this application embodiment provides a cable tie, a multi-functional tool for bundling, securing, and organizing items. The cable tie mainly includes a first cable tie part 1, a second cable tie part 2, and a third cable tie part 3. The first cable tie part 1 has a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other, and a locking channel 4 is disposed on the first cable tie part 1. One end of the second cable tie part 2 is connected to the first end, and the second cable tie part 2 can be folded relative to the first cable tie part 1. A limiting pin 5 is disposed on the other end of the second cable tie part 2. The third cable tie part 3 is connected to the second end, and the third cable tie part 3 can be bent and inserted into the locking channel 4. The limiting pin 5 can be embedded in the locking channel 4 to lock the third cable tie part 3 within the locking channel 4. A buckle 6 is provided on one of the first cable tie part 1 and the second cable tie part 2, and a locking hole 7 is provided on the other of the first cable tie part 1 and the second cable tie part 2 to engage with the buckle 6. The engagement of the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 keeps the limiting pin 5 within the locking channel 4. It should be noted that this embodiment includes the following implementation: a first cable tie portion 1 is provided with a buckle 6, and a second cable tie portion 2 is provided with a locking hole 7 for engaging with the buckle 6; the second cable tie portion 2 is provided with a buckle 6, and the first cable tie portion 1 is provided with a locking hole 7 for engaging with the buckle 6. Specifically, the buckle 6 is provided on one of the cable tie body and the connecting body, and the locking hole 7 is provided on the other of the cable tie body and the connecting body.

[0039] Specifically, when using cable ties to bundle an object, the third cable tie portion 3 is bent to wrap around the portion of the object to be bundled. The end of the third cable tie portion 3 away from the first cable tie portion 1 is inserted into the locking channel 4. Then, the second cable tie portion 2 is rotated so that the limiting pin 5 at the end of the second cable tie portion 2 away from the first cable tie portion 1 is inserted into the locking channel 4. The buckles 6 and locking holes 7 on the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 are engaged so that the limiting pin 5 is held in the locking channel 4. In this way, the limiting pin 5 will squeeze the third cable tie portion 3 inserted into the locking channel 4 so that the third cable tie portion 3 is in limiting contact with the locking channel 4, thereby locking and limiting the cable tie so that the cable tie can complete the bundling of the object. When it is necessary to untie the cable ties, press the buckle 6 on the protruding side to disengage it from the locking hole 7. Then, rotate the second cable tie section 2 to move the limiting pin 5 located at the end of the second cable tie section 2 away from the label structure out of the locking channel 4, thereby releasing the locking channel 4 from limiting the third cable tie section 3. Then, move the third cable tie section 3 out of the locking channel 4 to untie the cable ties. This design allows for the reuse of cable ties, reducing costs and increasing efficiency, thus improving the utilization rate of cable ties.

[0040] It should be noted that one of the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 is provided with a buckle 6, and the other of the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 is provided with a locking hole 7 that engages with the buckle 6. In other words, the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 are provided with a set of buckles 6 and locking holes 7 to achieve the engagement of the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2. This arrangement not only improves the engagement stability of the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2, but also improves the unlocking efficiency of the buckles 6 and locking holes 7 when the operator needs to remove the cable tie, thereby improving the removal efficiency of the cable tie. Of course, the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 can also be provided with multiple sets of buckles 6 and locking holes 7, which can also achieve a detachable connection between the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2, and can also keep the limiting pin 5 in the locking channel 4.

[0041] The cable tie with the above structure has a buckle 6 on one of the first cable tie part 1 and the second cable tie part 2, and a locking hole 7 on the other of the first cable tie part 1 and the second cable tie part 2 to engage with the buckle 6. Thus, when it is necessary to remove the cable tie from its locked state, the operator can hold the cable tie's label structure and press the engagement point between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 with their fingers to remove the buckle 6 from the locking hole 7, thereby releasing the engagement between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7. Then, the operator can apply force to the side away from the third cable tie part 3 by holding the label structure of the cable tie, thus removing the third cable tie part 3 from the locking channel 4, facilitating the removal of the cable tie. Compared to the scheme where the second cable tie part 2 is engaged with the side of the first cable tie part 1, this method is more time-saving and labor-saving for the operator, allowing for convenient removal of the cable tie with only one hand, thus improving the efficiency of cable tie removal.

[0042] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The buckle 6 includes multiple elastic engaging portions 601, which engage with different parts of the circumferential direction of the locking hole 7. In other words, the multiple elastic engaging portions 601 engage with different parts of the locking hole 7. This configuration enhances the engagement strength between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7, ensuring the stability of the engagement when the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 are engaged. This prevents the limiting pin 5 from moving out of the locking channel 4, thereby ensuring the stability of the locking of the third cable tie portion 3 by the limiting pin 5 and the locking channel 4.

[0043] Furthermore, there is a clearance space between any two elastic locking parts 601, meaning that there is no direct contact connection between any two elastic locking parts 601. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 3In this way, when it is necessary to release the engagement between the latch 6 and the latch hole 7, the operator's fingers can simultaneously press multiple elastic latching parts 601 to release the elastic latching parts 601 from the latch hole 7. The elastic latching parts 601 will move elastically relative to the latch hole 7. Due to the existence of clearance space between any two elastic latching parts 601, displacement space is provided for the elastic movement required for the elastic latching parts 601 to release from the latch hole 7, thereby improving the convenience of releasing the elastic latching parts 601 from the latch hole 7 and reducing the operational difficulty of releasing the latch 6 from the latch hole 7.

[0044] Of course, it is also possible not to set any clearance space between any elastic snap-fit ​​parts 601, that is, the buckle 6 is a whole, and the multiple elastic snap-fit ​​parts 601 are different parts of the buckle 6. The snap-fit ​​and release between the buckle 6 and the snap hole 7 can also be achieved through the elastic deformation of the buckle 6 itself.

[0045] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The locking hole 7 is a circular hole, and the multiple elastic locking parts 601 have the same structure. That is, the multiple elastic locking parts 601 engage with different parts of the circumference of the locking hole 7, and all the multiple elastic locking parts 601 are arc-shaped locking structures that engage with the locking hole 7. Since the operator presses the multiple elastic locking parts 601 with their fingers to release the engagement between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 when removing the cable tie, the locking hole 7 is made into a circular hole to approximately match the shape of the operator's finger pressing the locking hole 7, thereby improving the unlocking efficiency of the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7. Furthermore, making the locking hole 7 into a circular hole allows the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 to be subjected to balanced force, improving the stability of the engagement between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7.

[0046] Based on the fact that the structures of the multiple elastic snap-fit ​​parts 601 are all the same, please refer to [further details]. Figure 3 Multiple elastic locking portions 601 are evenly distributed circumferentially in the circular hole. By arranging the multiple elastic locking portions 601 as described above, the forces on different parts of the multiple elastic locking portions 601 and the locking hole 7 can be balanced, improving the stability of the engagement between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7. This, in turn, improves the stability of the limiting pin 5 in cooperating with the locking channel 4 to limit the third cable tie portion 3, thereby improving the stability of the cable tie in binding the object to be bundled. Furthermore, with this arrangement, when it is necessary to disengage the buckle 6 from the locking hole 7, the balanced forces on the various elastic locking portions 601 of the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 allow for more efficient removal of the elastic locking portions 601 from the locking hole 7, thus improving the efficiency of disassembling the cable tie.

[0047] It should be noted that the shape of the 7-hole is not limited here. The 7-hole can be a polygonal hole, an oval hole, an irregular hole, etc.

[0048] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The elastic locking part 601 includes a locking area 6011 and a pressing area 6012. The locking area 6011 protrudes from the first cable tie part 1 or the second cable tie part 2 and is used to lock with the locking hole 7. The pressing area 6012 is located at the protruding end of the locking area 6011 and forms a plane that bears the unlocking force. Thus, when it is necessary to unlock the cable tie, the operator presses the pressing area 6012 and the plane at the protruding end of the locking area 6011 with their fingers, causing the elastic locking part 601 to move away from the wall of the locking hole 7, thereby releasing the locking area 6011 of the elastic locking part 601 from the locking hole 7, and thus releasing the locking between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7. Here, by setting up a pressing area 6012 that forms a plane to withstand the unlocking force, a larger force-bearing surface is provided for the operator's fingers pressing the buckle 6 when the operator needs to unlock the cable tie, reducing the difficulty of unlocking the buckle 6 with the fingers and improving the efficiency of the operator unlocking the buckle 6 and the engagement between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7, thereby improving the unlocking efficiency of the cable tie.

[0049] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 In the radial direction of the locking hole 7 towards the center, the cross-sectional dimension of the pressing area 6012 gradually decreases. Since the locking hole 7 is a circular hole, by setting the pressing part to the aforementioned gradually decreasing structure, the gap between adjacent elastic locking parts 601 can be increased in the circumferential direction of the locking hole 7, reducing interference between the elastic locking parts 601. This improves the efficiency when the operator presses the elastic locking part 601 to release the connection between the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7, thereby increasing the efficiency of cable tie removal.

[0050] It should be noted that the radial direction of the 7 slot towards the center is... Figure 3 The direction indicated by the middle arrow A.

[0051] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Both the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 are provided with a widening portion 8, which includes a first region 801 and a second region 802. A buckle 6 or a locking hole 7 is disposed in the first region 801. The width of the widening portion 8 is greater than the width of the remaining parts of the first cable tie portion 1, and also greater than the width of the remaining parts of the second cable tie portion 2. By correspondingly placing the buckle 6 and locking hole 7 in the first region 801 of the widening portion 8, the size of the buckle 6 and locking hole 7 can be increased, thus increasing the size of the elastic locking portion 601. This makes it easier for the operator to press the buckle 6 with their fingers when the cable tie needs to be removed, further improving the convenience of the operator in releasing the buckle 6 and locking hole 7, and further improving the efficiency of cable tie removal.

[0052] It should be noted that, in order to improve the molding efficiency of cable ties, the cable ties are set as an integral injection molded part, and the second area 802 is the demolding adsorption area, so as to facilitate the rapid demolding of the cable ties and improve the processing efficiency of the cable ties.

[0053] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The widened portion 8 of the first cable tie portion 1 includes a third region 803, and a locking channel 4 is disposed in the third region 803, wherein the thickness of the third region 803 is greater than the thickness of the other regions of the widened portion 8. Since the area where the locking channel 4 is located is the main stress-bearing part when the cable tie is tied and untied, increasing the thickness of the third region 803 here can increase the stability of the locking channel 4 structure, thereby improving the service life of the cable tie.

[0054] Based on this, the third region 803 is provided with a weight-reducing part 9, which makes the third region 803 of the widening part 8 form a reinforcing rib structure. This configuration reduces the weight of the third region 803 of the widening part 8, thereby reducing the amount of raw materials used in the cable tie and achieving cost reduction. On the other hand, it improves the structural strength of the third region 803 of the widening part 8 and extends the service life of the cable tie.

[0055] In addition, weight-reducing parts 9 may also be provided in the remaining areas of the first cable tie part 1, the second cable tie part 2 and the third cable tie part 3.

[0056] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 4 to 6 The third cable tie portion 3 has a locking tooth 301 on its surface, and the locking channel 4 has a reverse tooth 401 for engaging with the locking tooth 301. Specifically, when it is necessary to use the cable tie to bundle the object to be bundled, the third cable tie portion 3 is bent so that it wraps around the part of the object to be bundled. The end of the third cable tie portion 3 away from the first cable tie portion 1 is inserted into the locking channel 4. Then, the second cable tie portion 2 is rotated so that the limiting pin 5 at the end of the second cable tie portion 2 away from the first cable tie portion 1 is inserted into the locking channel 4, and the buckle 6 and the locking hole 7 on the first cable tie portion 1 and the second cable tie portion 2 are engaged so that the limiting pin 5 is kept in the locking channel 4. In this way, the limiting pin 5 will squeeze the third cable tie portion 3 inserted into the locking channel 4 so that the locking tooth 301 of the third cable tie portion 3 engages with the reverse tooth 401 in the locking channel 4, thereby locking and limiting the cable tie so that the cable tie can complete the bundling of the object to be bundled.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 5A reinforcing rib 10 is provided at the connection between the reverse teeth 401 and the inner wall of the locking channel 4. By providing the reinforcing rib 10, the structural stability of the reverse teeth 401 is improved, thereby increasing the contact strength between the reverse teeth 401 and the locking teeth 301 when the cable tie is in the bundling state, thus improving the stability of the cable tie in bundling the object to be bundled. Furthermore, during the repeated use of the cable tie, the main force-bearing component of the cable tie is the reverse teeth 401 within the locking channel 4; this design extends the service life of the reverse teeth 401, thereby extending the service life of the cable tie.

[0058] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 The reinforcing ribs 10 are disposed at the ends and / or the middle of the inverted teeth 401 along their length. In this embodiment, the following implementation is provided: the reinforcing ribs 10 are disposed at the ends of the inverted teeth 401 along their length; the reinforcing ribs 10 are disposed at the middle of the inverted teeth 401 along their length; multiple reinforcing ribs 10 are disposed and are respectively located at the ends and the middle of the inverted teeth 401 along their length. By arranging the inverted teeth 401 in the above manner, the stability of the reinforcing ribs 10 in supporting the inverted teeth 401 can be further improved, and the structural strength and service life of the inverted teeth 401 can be further improved.

[0059] Furthermore, multiple reinforcing ribs 10 are evenly spaced along the length of the inverted tooth 401. This arrangement ensures that the reinforcing ribs 10 are uniformly distributed along the length of the inverted tooth 401, thereby further enhancing the structural strength of the inverted tooth 401.

[0060] It should be noted that the length direction of the reverse tooth 401 is... Figure 5 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow B.

[0061] Since the locking channel 4 is the main force-bearing component during the bundling or disassembly of the cable tie, in some embodiments, the reverse teeth 401, the locking channel 4, and the first cable tie portion 1 are integrally molded. This arrangement not only improves the stability of the connection between the locking channel 4 and the first cable tie portion 1, thus enhancing the structural stability of the main force-bearing component of the cable tie, but also improves the structural strength of the reverse teeth 401, as the main force-bearing component of the cable tie. Furthermore, by integrally injection molding the reverse teeth 401, the locking channel 4, and the first cable tie portion 1, the processing efficiency of all three components can be improved.

[0062] In addition, the reverse teeth 401 and the locking channel 4 may not be integrally formed with the first cable tie part 1. During the cable tie processing and production process, the reverse teeth 401 and the locking channel 4 are integrally formed first, and then the connection between the locking channel 4 and the first cable tie part 1 is achieved through processes such as hot melting or secondary injection molding.

[0063] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The root of the limiting pin 5 is connected to the second cable tie portion 2 via an arc structure 11. This arc structure 11 makes the connection between the limiting pin 5 and the second cable tie portion 2 smoother, improving the connection stability and thus enhancing the structural strength and service life of the limiting pin 5. Furthermore, a chamfered corner structure 12 is provided at the top of the limiting pin 5, meaning the cross-sectional area of ​​the top of the limiting pin 5 is smaller than that of the bottom. This chamfered corner structure 12 guides the insertion of the limiting pin 5 into the locking channel 4, improving the efficiency of insertion and reducing interference between the limiting pin 5 and the locking channel 4.

[0064] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 The length of the limiting pin 5 is less than the length of the locking channel 4. With this setting, compared to the technical solution where the length of the limiting pin 5 is greater than or equal to the length of the locking channel 4, the limiting pin 5 can cooperate with the locking channel 4 to lock the third cable tie part 3. Ensuring that the length of the limiting pin 5 is less than the length of the locking channel 4 can reduce the material used for the limiting pin 5, thereby achieving the effect of saving costs.

[0065] It should be noted that the length of the limit pin 5 and the length of the locking channel 4 refer to the lengths of the limit pin 5 and the locking channel 4 at... Figure 5 The dimension in the direction indicated by the double-headed arrow C.
