Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vise grips of the type described in the preamble to the claim 1 (see US-A-5,233,893, for example).
- Locking pliers of this type allow to exercise for a long time, without intervention of the operator, a significant clamping force on a object, or more frequently on two objects to be assembled.
- the object of the invention is to eliminate this disadvantage in providing a design vise grip simple and ergonomic that the operator can open all by mastering this opening. In particular, if the tightening was carried out with one hand, the operator can open the vise grip with one hand.
- the vice grip according to the invention can have one or more of the characteristics described in claims 2 to 19.
- the vise grip 1 shown in the Figures 1 to 3, generally planar, consists of a fixed crew 2 and a mobile crew 3.
- Fixed crew 2 has a general S shape very elongated with a distal end portion or before 4 constituting a fixed jaw, part approximately proximal or rear end 5 approximately parallel in part 4 and constituting a first handle or fixed handle, and an intermediate connecting part 5A. In the normal position of use shown, the jaw 4 is lower than the handle 5.
- the moving assembly 3 comprises a movable jaw 6 of generally triangular shape, including the rear vertex lower is articulated at the root of the fixed jaw by a pivot 7, and a toggle mechanism 8 provided with a adjusting device 9.
- the toggle mechanism 8 includes a actuating lever 10 whose front end is articulated at the upper rear vertex of the movable jaw by a pivot 11, and the rear end of which forms a second handle or movable handle 12, located under the fixed handle 5.
- Mechanism 8 also includes a connecting rod 13 whose front end is articulated at a point intermediate of the lever 10 by a pivot 14, and of which the rear end carries a pivot 15.
- This pivot passes through oblong lights along the general axis of the handle 5, provided in the two wings of a yoke 16, which is part of the adjusting device 9.
- the connecting rod 13 has a protuberance 17 in U, directed towards the handle 12, which forms at its base has a slot 18.
- this connecting rod has a single hooking tooth 19 whose face front forms an upper arc 19A centered at 14, a lower arc 19B of smaller radius, and a radial face 19C, facing downwards, connecting these two arches.
- Face 19C which constitutes the face of attachment, is substantially radial with respect to the pivot 14.
- the adjusting device 9 comprises a nut 20 fixed in the handle 5, a screw 21 which passes through this nut, and an operating button 22.
- the front end of the screw crosses freely the web of the yoke 16 and, inside it, is equipped with a head of the rear end of the connecting rod 8.
- the rear end of the screw 21 forms a square or a hexagon 23 received sliding in a recess conjugate 24 of a sheath 25.
- the button 22 is fixed on this sleeve so that an inner collar 26 handle 5 is trapped between this button and a outer flange 27 of the sleeve 25. From this way, the operating knob is rotatably mounted, but immobilized in translation, at the rear end of the handle 5.
- the mechanism 8 also includes a finger locking / unlocking 28 articulated on the lever 12 by a pivot 29 adjacent to the pivot 14.
- this finger On its inner side, facing the handle 5, this finger has a recess bounded upwards by a triangular tooth upper 30, which forms a single hooking tooth, and down by a lower triangular tooth 31 stop.
- the upper edge 31A of the latter is radial with respect to pivot 29.
- finger 28 has a protuberance 32.
- the part of the finger which carries teeth 30 and 31 and the protuberance 32 is constituted by a separate part reported.
- this piece can be made of metal and the rest of the plastic finger.
- Mechanism 8 also includes a spring multifunction 33.
- This spring includes a rear part helical 34 hooked under tension to the connecting rod 13 close of the pivot 15, then a rectilinear part 35 which extends, substantially along the general axis of the fixed handle 5, to pivot 11, then a hairpin part 36 which surrounds this pivot on a revolution and a half and comes press protuberance 32 with finger 28, stretching to rotate this finger clockwise around the pivot 29.
- the vise grip is in its position maximum opening shown in Figure 1, in which the face 19C of the connecting rod is supported on the face 31A and the tooth of finger 30 is in contact with the face 19A of the connecting rod. This prohibits greater spacing relative of the two handles.
- This socket is maintained thanks to the support of the end 36 of the spring 33 and to the tension of its part 34, which requests the movable jaw 6 at the opening.
- the rear part 28A of the finger 28 forms a trigger which protrudes slightly under the part lever 10.
- the operator raises, with its four fingers, the handle 12 to bring it closer the handle 5 (direction F of Figure 1), which is wedged in the palm of your hand.
- the corner 11-14-15 opens progressively, and the movable jaw 6 approaches the jaw fixed 4, stretching part 34 of spring 33, until pinch object 38.
- the tip of the tooth 19 approaches that of tooth 30, the contact of the tip of tooth 30 on the arch 19A and that of the tip of tooth 31 on arc 19B being held in permanently thanks to part 36 of the spring.
- the finger 28 is blocked relative to the lever 10, so that the trigger 28A also forms an input area for the operator's index.
- the operator slightly increases the angle of the knee brace and causes the tooth to click into place 30 behind tooth 19, as shown in Figure 3.
- the upper face of the tooth 30 is then substantially radial with respect to pivot 14, and the stresses due when tightening, they tend to open the angle formed by the axis 29, the tip of tooth 30 and the axis 14.
- the tip of the tooth 30 then abuts on the surface 19B of the connecting rod and prevents such an opening.
- the tool has then reached its position stable clamping, for which the angle 11-14-15 is slightly less than 180 °, and typically of the order of 170 to 175 °. In this position, the trigger protrudes more strongly under lever 10. The snap can thus be felt by the operator's index finger.
- the operator under special conditions accessibility of the parts to be clamped, can use the clamp overturned with the palm on the branch 12, two four fingers on branch 5 and thumb on the trigger 28A.
- Figure 4 shows the tool in its stable clamping position of a thick object 38 maximum (a few centimeters in practice). In that case, screw 21 is almost completely unscrewed, i.e. until bring pivot 15 near the rear end lights 37, as shown in Figure 5.
- Figure 6 shows a variant of the Figure 4 vise grips with level indicator Clamping.
- the lever 10 has a protuberance 39 projecting towards the handle 5, pierced with a orifice 40.
- the protrusion 17 of the rod appears more or less in the orifice 40, and this can be changed by turning in one direction or in the other the button 22: the more this opening is free, the more the final tightening is strong.
- the indicator indicates, while we have not still tightened the workpiece, the degree of the clamping force which we will obtain after having carried out the maneuver of tightening to reach the stable position of teeth 19 and 30.
- the orifice 40 can be produced on protrusions 39 located on both sides of the protrusion 17, so that the indicator is clearly visible from two sides of the pliers. These protrusions 39 form then the two openwork wings of a yoke receiving the protuberance 17.
- the indicator can be viewed by a left or right handed. It can be watched too when using the clamp in position overturned, with thumb on trigger.
- FIG. 6 shows a protuberance 17 of circular shape and an orifice circular shape.
- the indicator can be consisting of a protrusion 17 and an orifice 40 of various forms.
- Figure 10 shows the application of the invention to a vise grip whose configuration general is reversed compared to the previous one: the fixed jaw 4 is in line with the handle 5, and the movable jaw 6 is on the same side of the right connecting the pivots 7 and 15 as the lever 10. From more, the screw 21 extends forward, in the handle 5, from pivot 15 (possibly with use yoke as above), and nut 20 is a cylindrical wheel rotatably mounted, but immobilized in translation, about halfway down the crew fixed 2.
- the thread between the screw 21 and the nut 20 can be single thread or double thread, as known in itself.
- the vice grip can be stored in the state closed by simply bringing the handles together, without having to operate the adjusting screw. Closing the clamp for storage is therefore done with one hand, whereas for classic pliers you need two hands, one to turn the adjusting screw and the other to close the clamp.
- closing the clamp for it is stored faster - in one gesture - because it do not have to turn the adjusting screw.
- Locking pliers in general, and locking pliers according to the invention in particular can be made from cut, punched sheets, stamped, then assembled. Therefore, the most often, for handles in particular, sheaths in synthetic resin (plastic) to ensure comfort and ergonomics during tightening.
- Locking pliers are often used to bring together and maintain parts for welding. In this case there are weld or slag spatter still hot, encrusted in the plastic sheath; this causes rapid deterioration of the sheath, but above all can cause hand injuries when of a later operation.
- the upper sheath 41 fitted on the handle 5 until its connection with the intermediate part 5A, protects the mechanism (toggle, spring, teeth 19 and 30) up to the parts close to the jaws, laterally and on top of the tool.
- the sheath 42 may include a hole 45 for hanging the tool.
