Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tool for binding objects, in particular cable harnesses, according to the preamble of the claim 1.
  • Cable tie tools (US-A-5,205,328) are known to which the tapes to be used in the form of the tapes side by side containing and connecting magazine strip feedable are.
  • the tool has an insertion opening in which the magazine strip in a predetermined Direction is introduced. Its leading end is from one Guide kept connected to the tool body is. This guide can only handle a very limited number of tapes take up. If the magazine strip has a larger number contains its trailing end that hovers a few dozen Tapes can contain free outside of the tool. The magazine strip will gradually as work progresses used up and then by another magazine strip replaced. The limited number of in a magazine strip containing tapes is annoying in some cases.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of an exchangeable magazine arrangement to create for the tools mentioned which allows the magazine to be easily attached to the tool.
  • the magazine strip is contained in a magazine, that can be attached to the tool by means of guide devices is.
  • the leadership are at least in their last part of the attachment movement determining part so formed that the outlet opening of the magazine of the insertion opening the tool in approximately the predetermined direction, in which the magazine strip is fed to the insertion opening should be approaching.
  • This is preferably the case end of the magazine band protruding from the outlet opening of the magazine likewise in the feed direction. This will causes that when attaching the magazine to the tool Magazine band automatically into the insertion opening of the tool arrives without the end of the magazine strip being cumbersome needs to be manipulated and positioned.
  • Attaching the magazine is particularly easy the tool if a plug guide is provided for the connection is in the cooperating surfaces of the drum and of the tool end in partial areas that approximately in the feed direction run. This also applies if the Otherwise, the plug guide is essentially radial with respect to the Drum runs. It is then with cam surfaces at its ends provided that run perpendicular to it and thereby the The outlet opening of the drum forming portion thereof one in Force the tangential direction.
  • the tool itself ready for the end of the strip when the magazine is attached is.
  • the tool 1 comprises an elongated tool body 2, which are held in a pistol-like manner by means of a handle 3 can and its binding function by means of a hand switch is triggered.
  • a pair of loop pliers 5 At the front end he wears a pair of loop pliers 5, the respective binding band around the binding Item leads.
  • a feed device 7 provided, which contains a feed drum 8, on the circumference of a plurality of projections 9 in regular Distance is arranged between which there are recesses 10 are located, intended for recording individual tapes are held side by side within a magazine strip are.
  • the magazine strip may be the way it is is shown in EP-B 261 697.
  • the feed drum 8 is by means not shown in the direction of arrow 11 step by step Projections 9 corresponding angular distance can be driven, wherein their rest positions are located so that one each Recess 10 is located in accordance with the feed channel 6.
  • the recesses 10 are outwardly through housing parts or bracket 12 closed, the inner surface 13 a circular arc around the axis of the feed drum 8 about follows a semicircle, which is roughly from the top of the feed drum 8 leads to the feed channel 6.
  • the leadership area 13 holds the tapes in the apex area of the feed drum 8 were inserted in the recesses 10 until they achieve their goal, the feed channel 6.
  • the guide surface 13 ends in the apex region of the feed drum 8 or a little above against the feed direction protruding in an edge 14. This edge bounds together with one opposite to the circumference of the feed drum Housing edge 15, the insertion opening 16 for the Magazine strip.
  • the edge 15 is from a housing part 17th formed in the vicinity of the edge 15 approximately in the direction a tangent to the core area of the feed drum 8.
  • the core area of the feed drum 8 is by the recessed bottom of the recess 10 between the projections 9 educated.
  • the guide surface 13 runs in the neighborhood the edge 14 formed by it parallel to this direction approximately tangential to that formed by the tips of the projections 9 outer limiting circle of the feed drum 8. This Direction corresponds approximately to the predetermined direction of insertion 18, with which the magazine strip is as tangential as possible the feed drum can break in.
  • a magazine 20 is connected to the tool, in which for example a few hundred tapes in the form of a coherent, wrapped magazine strip are included, the is indicated schematically at 21 and its end 22 approximately emerges tangentially from an opening on the circumference of the magazine.
  • the magazine can be replaced by means of a plug connection connected to the tool, which on the one hand consist of two parallel, in the form of matching struts 23 on the tool body and on the other hand each a shape-matching receptacle 24 is formed on the two end faces of the magazine 20.
  • the Struts 23 and receptacles 24 act with side surfaces 25, 26, 27, 28 together, which form a guide device which the direction of movement of the magazine drum 20 when starting determine the tool. Run in relation to the drum they are essentially radial. Run in relation to the tool them up (when the handle is facing downwards displays), being a little bit from the user's point of view are inclined to the right. Therefore the magazine drum sits not in the middle of the tool, but a little to the right moved to give the user a view of the tying point to facilitate.
  • Fig. 4 shows the magazine in the end position. You can see that the end of the magazine strip in the at the insertion opening 16 located drum recess 10 is located. In order to this comes about, should it protrude from the magazine End 22 of the magazine strip 21 within a predetermined Length range lie by suitable locking means is maintained, which can be of a simple nature and therefore need no description. For example, on a cam or hook can be provided in the magazine opening reaches into a band gap of the magazine strip to hold this in the desired position, and the Attaching the magazine to the tool is removed. Also a simple adhesive tape can provide these services.
  • strut 23 and the Drum provided receptacle 24 not only on its tool side End, but also at the other end with partial areas 34, 35 are provided by the direction of the guide surfaces 25 to 28 differ.
  • the partial surface 34 is rounded Edge formed analogously to the corner 29, while the Partial area 35 extends approximately parallel to partial area 30. from that it turns out that the middle area of the magazine performs an inclined movement when approaching the tool, that described above for the opening area Movement runs parallel. This is not essential required, but makes handling easier.
