Definitions

  • the invention relates to a binding device of objects such as cable bundles according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • the invention has recognized that it is used to reduce friction between the band and the lock is appropriate that Band with the largest possible radius of curvature in the direction the belt opening. Therefore, the tape guide surface goes according to the invention with a curvature whose radius is at least one half of the strip thickness equals into the surface of the strip opening about.
  • the tape guide surface is elongated and makes an obtuse angle with the direction of the tape opening one that is conveniently greater than 110, more preferably is greater than 120 °.
  • the tape guide surface should be in relation to the one to be bound Take a direction that corresponds to the direction of the object the lock tapered band corresponds, i.e. approximately circumferential or Tangent direction. This requires a certain orientation this area on the area in which the other Band end is firmly connected to the lock. Therefore is according to the invention the direction of the tape guide surface on this area aligned. If you consider the center of this area the intersection between the centerline of the relaxed State of the tape running from the lock with the center line of the Wall, to which the tape is attached in one piece, is the direction of an essential part of the tape guide surface according to the invention focused on this point, d. that is their extension at a distance past that point, which is not larger than half the strip thickness.
  • the raised side edges of the tape guide surface form an additional support for the surface of the binding item next to the ribbon. That means that Force with which the tape is bound to the surface of the Object during its relative movement, reduced are reduced, which also reduces the risk of damage becomes.
  • the side guidance function of the sidebars requires that you mutual distance the width of the tape is not essential exceeds. Usually their distance should be the width of the Band by no more than 10%. A is preferred Distance that is 3 to 7% above the width of the tape lies.
  • the hinge side facing the object is preferably toothless. In this context, it is useful if the Edges of the ribbon on its side to be turned towards the object to be bound Fillet or chamfer the side are whose width in the view from each side is at least about half a strip thickness.
  • the binding device has a band 1 and a lock 2, which are connected in one piece and made of tough elastic Plastic such as polyamide. Volume 1 is on the side 3 is essentially smooth and faces on its opposite Side teeth 4 between side edges 5 on.
  • the lock encloses the band opening 8 with four walls, namely a wall 9 to which the end 6 of the band 1 is connected is, two side walls 10 and a wall 11, one in the Band opening 8 protruding pawl 12 carries.
  • This is with the Wall 11 connected via a flexible joint 13 and has teeth 14 on that cooperate with the toothing 4 of the band 1, if its free end in the manner shown in Fig. 1 by the band opening 8 is guided.
  • the direction 15 in which the Band is moved through the band opening 8 is fixed due to the opposite retention effect of the latch 12.
  • the side from which the free band end 7 into the band opening 8 is introduced is the object to be bound turned. In Fig. 1 it is assumed that the one to be bound
  • the subject is a bundle of cables comprising a number of cables 17.
  • the tape In the tensioned state, the tape lies on the surface of the Item cross section. In most cases this is a circular cross section. Consequently, the attached to the castle 2 run End 6 and the free band end 7 approximately in the circumferential direction or tangentially in the direction of arrows 20, 21 on the Lock 2 closed. These directions 20, 21 close depending on the diameter the object makes an obtuse angle with each other, which in most cases is between 130 and 170 °. For the cable tie shown in the drawing is assumed that this angle is between 140 and 160 °.
  • the surfaces of the band opening 8 have the task of the band so that the teeth 4 and the teeth 14 of the pawl can interact properly. They are made up of the inner surface 22 of the wall 9, the inner surfaces 23 of the side walls 10 and the surfaces 24, the support strips 25th are formed, the wall 11 on both sides next to the Project out jack 12. Because the direction 21 in which the tape end 7 approaches the castle 2, from the direction 15, 16 of the Band opening 8 deviates, these support strips 25 also form one Area of curvature 26 of the band in the region of its deflection supported. The curvature of the curvature region 26 follows an arc around the axis of curvature 32.
  • the arrangement shown can be considered known become.
  • the area of curvature 26 is one Upstream of the tape guide surface 30 on which the tape is applied and which is bordered on both sides by edge strips 31, whose distance is slightly larger than the width of the band 1.
  • This is given a side guide by the edge strips 31, which ensures that it is perpendicular to the axis of curvature 32 enters the area of curvature.
  • a misalignment the too unpredictable friction between Band and lock leads is avoided. It will also a favorable introduction of force into the band and into the Castle favored. The device is thereby for recording empowered higher forces.
  • a cable 17 - is sufficiently soft, it will be in the system deform on band 1. Because its edges are well rounded is usually not harmful. But if in the area of the band end 7, which during the tensioning in the Lock is pulled in, the deformation of the object 20 and the relative movement between this object and the Band end 7 come together, it may damage it of the object.
  • the edge strips 31 on both sides of the tape end 7 in the area of the tape guide surface used according to the invention to reduce this risk by its height 33 is chosen so high that the object 20 on both sides of the tape 1 also on these marginal ridges 31 can support.
  • the height 33 of the edge strips is said to be Purpose to be at least about half the thickness of the tape. It can also be higher and the size of the tape thickness reach or even go beyond.
  • the supporting effect of the edge strips 31 complements the Rounding the edges of the tape.
  • the width 34 of this rounding is greater than half Strip thickness. The same applies to its width 35 in the side view. Due to the size of this rounding and the support effect the skirting 31 becomes a possibly harmful Stress peak in object 20 in the area of the edges of the Volume 1 avoided.
  • the tape is as large as possible on the tape guide surface 30 can support, it is elongated, d. H. preferably greater than half a strip thickness. It is aligned with the area 36 in which the band end 3 is connected to the wall 9 of the castle. In concrete terms If it is directed to the center of this area, which by the intersection of the center line 38 of the Band end 3 is marked with the center line 37 of the wall 9. The distance at which the continuation line drawn in dash-dotted lines 39 of the tape guide surface 30 passes this point should not be greater than a tape thickness, preferably not be more than half a strip thick.
