Abstract
Description
1 State of the art
[0001] Clamping rings have been used for some time and are clamped and inserted using clamping tools such as pliers or screw mechanisms.
[0002] If used improperly, this can lead to over-tensioning of the ring, which will completely or at least partially destroy the ring's tensioning behavior. 2 New
[0003] The defined clamping range prevents the ring from being over-tensioned. 3 Inventive step
[0004] Prevention of overvoltage through a defined area and stopping lever function 4 Industrial applicability
[0005] The safety of the ring means that jewelers and customers can change, clean and / or replace their gemstones in the ring themselves.
[0006] This makes it easier and more customer-friendly to sell the tool and / or the product with the tool. 5 Technical description
[0007] Clamping rings have been used for some time and are clamped and inserted using clamping tools such as pliers or screw mechanisms.
[0008] If used improperly, this can lead to over-tensioning of the ring, which will completely or at least partially destroy the ring's tensioning behavior.
[0009] The safety clamping ring changing tool provides a solution, as the clamping area is precisely defined (difference (1) to (2) in Fig. 1) If you move the lever further, this tension is released again and stops through the lever stop (end of the lever movement)
[0010] An embodiment of the invention is described with reference to Fig. 1 to 2. They show: Fig. 1 : Lever of the clamping tool Fig. 2: Clamping tool Reference symbol list: 1 Short distance (tool is closed / relaxed) 2 Long distance (tool is on / clamped) 3 pressure levers 4 Pressure point / lever edge 5 Axis (axis center) 6 clamping part 7th edition (ring stopper) 8 gap 9 Side wall
[0011] In detail, the tool works as follows: When the (3) lever is operated, downward rotation around the (5) axis, (4) the edge of the lever presses against (9) the side wall of the (6) clamping part and pushes it apart.
[0012] A ring that is put on is also pushed apart at this moment, but in the fixed range of the difference between (1) and (2).
[0013] To ensure uniform clamping, the tool has a (7) ring support / ring stopper
Claims
[1] The safety clamping ring changing tool is, characterized by that it has (3) levers and a (6) clamping part. [2] Safety clamping ring changing tool according to claim 1, characterized by that the (3) pressure lever in Fig. 1 has different distances. (1) relaxed, or when actuated (rotational movement around the (5) axis) changes to the (2) tensioned state. [3] Safety clamping ring changing tool according to claim one of the preceding claims, characterized by that (4) the pressure side of the lever, when the axis is rotated as described under 1, presses against (9) the side wall of (6) the clamping part and thus enlarges the (8) gap, which leads to the clamping of the ring. [4] Safety clamping ring changing tool according to claim one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the (6) clamping part has a (7) ring support which brings the ring into the exact clamping position.
