AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing band tightening devices are limited in the range of bands they can effectively tighten.

Method used

The band tightening device incorporates a gripping mechanism with a chuck base and pressing gripper that includes a pair of formation walls and a band support portion with an inclined opposing surface, allowing the band to be pulled with reduced restriction and supported at the entrance to prevent bending, thereby expanding the range of bands that can be tightened.

Benefits of technology

The device enhances the range of bands that can be tightened by reducing bending and tension, ensuring smoother passage through the entry path.

Abstract

A band tightening device (10) includes a gripping mechanism (22) and a reciprocating mechanism. The gripping mechanism (22) pulls a band with reciprocation. The reciprocating mechanism causes the gripping mechanism (22) to reciprocate. The gripping mechanism (22) includes a chuck base (90) and a pressing gripper (92). The chuck base (90) has a pair of formation walls (110) and a band support portion (112). The pair of formation walls (110) forms an entry path (122) of the band. The band support portion (112) is continuous with the pair of formation walls (110) so as to span the pair of formation walls (110). The band support portion (112) has an inclined opposing surface (170). The inclined opposing surface (170) faces the entry path (122). The inclined opposing surface (170) is inclined. The pressing gripper (92) slidably presses the band against the inclined opposing surface (170) of the chuck base (90).
