Definitions

  • Hand tong with two legs which are rotatably connected to each other in a common first axis of rotation, each having a located beyond the common first axis of rotation tool portion and a side of the common first axis of rotation lever portion having a handle, wherein the first leg in its lever portion in a Handle remote lever and a handle-proximal lever is broken down, these two levers are rotatably connected to each other in a first axis of rotation to the common first axis of rotation in a first joint to each other and a traction means the second leg with the handle-near end of the handle connects remote lever of the first leg, which can be shortened by means of a pivoting movement of the handle-proximal lever of the first leg about the second axis of rotation.
  • the hand tool according to the invention is particularly well suited for mounting metallic pipe connections by means of a clamping ring.
  • the two lever sections of the pliers by means of a traction device to connect with each other and build on a shortening of the traction device, the desired forces between the jaws has proven itself in years of practice.
  • disadvantageous however, despite the sophisticated mechanics of the pliers expansive tree shape has been found.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a hand tool, which allows it even with limited space and tight installation conditions, without generating additional power high forces.
  • the object is achieved by a pair of pliers of the type described above, at softer the second leg is broken down into a handle-distant lever and a handle-near lever and these two levers in a parallel to the first axis of rotation third axis of rotation in a second joint are rotatably connected to each other.
  • the particular advantage of the innovation according to the invention lies in the high flexibility of handling in confined mounting situations. While it was imperative for the use of conventional hand pliers to have a generous space around the intended use of the hand tool available, it is now also possible to use the hand tool according to the invention ergonomically useful in close quarters.
  • the accessibility of the pipe junctions in the past has been a major problem. Even in the preparation of piping isometrics, the requirements for accessibility for the assembly personnel are a consideration to be considered. Since pertinent design software does not take into account such design considerations, the ease of installation of piping with conventional tools so far requires a not inconsiderable costly additional effort.
  • the saved mounting space of all with a pair of pliers according to the invention to be mounted components.
  • An advantageous development of the invention provides that on the second joint on one of the two levers of the second leg, a rotatable profiled latch is mounted and the other lever is provided with a profile corresponding to the pawl profile, so that the second joint in can determine at least one angular position.
  • the detectability of the second joint by means of a profiled latch has the advantage that it is possible to vary the angular position with minimal effort.
  • Another way to fix the second joint of the hand tool in a certain angular position represent in certain angular positions of the two levers of the second leg aligned bores, which receive a bolt for the purpose of detection.
  • Such a stiffening of the second joint of the two levers of the second leg is particularly high load capacity and robust.
  • this variant requires a minimum production cost.
  • the pawl and the corresponding profile respectively rectangular.
  • the pawl is provided with only a rectangular projection and the corresponding profile has on the corresponding lever portion a plurality of matching rectangular recesses. In this way, the first lever portion can be stiffened to the second lever portion in different angular positions both in the loading direction, as well as in the unloading direction of the pliers.
  • Another way to stiffen the second joint of the lever portion of the second leg provides the formation of the pawl profile and the corresponding profile in sawtooth shape, so that the profile of the pawl and the corresponding profile of at least one substantially sawtooth-like projection, or from essentially sawtooth-like recesses, wherein the two corresponding sawtooth profiles block the rotational movement in the loading direction of the hand tool and release it in the discharge direction.
  • the advantage of such an embodiment lies essentially in the possibility of the second joint during handling of the forceps be able to adjust in the relief direction at an angle and in this way to be able to adapt the ergonomics to the respective mounting situation as needed and quickly.
  • the acting as an abutment second leg can be brought into the respective optimum position to the first leg.
  • a profiled pawl stiffening the second joint always automatically engages in the corresponding profile, it makes sense if the pawl is biased by at least one spring.
  • the preload also increases the safety of handling such pliers during successive loading and unloading cycles.
  • the hand tool according to the invention does not require exceptionally high body forces when handling, it makes sense if the lever portion of the two legs is at least three times as long as the tool section.
  • an advantageous development of the hand tool according to the invention provides to guide the traction means about a rotatable roller on the second lever portion and to attach to the first lever portion.
  • the rotatable roller on the second lever portion operates mechanically in the sense of a free pulley and a shortening of the traction means affects only half its path to the distance between the two handle-distant lever, so that the resulting force between the jaws increased by a factor of two.
  • the hand tool 1 is provided in its entirety by the reference numeral 1.
  • Their main components are two in a first axis of rotation 2 rotatably interconnected legs 3, 4.
  • the legs 3, 4 can be divided into a tool section 5 beyond the first axis of rotation 2 and a lever portion 6 on this side of the first axis of rotation 2.
  • At the ends of the lever sections 6 are each handles 6a, 6b.
  • the first leg 3, as well as the second leg 4, in a handle-distant lever 7,9 and a handle-proximal lever 8, 10 are broken down.
  • the handle-distant levers 7, 9 and handle-proximate levers 8, 10 are each connected via a first 11 and second 12 joint 11, 12 in a second 13, and third 14 axis of rotation 13, 14 rotatably connected to each other.
  • a traction means 15 extends between the lever sections 6 of the first 3 and second 4 legs 3, 4.
  • the traction means 15 has one end at the handle-proximal end of the handle-remote lever 9 of the second leg 4 attached.
  • the traction means 15 designed as a roller chain is guided via a gear 16, which is non-rotatably connected via a shaft 16a with a ratchet mechanism 17 on the first joint 11 and thus enables the shortening of the traction means 15 during a pivoting movement of the handle-proximal lever 8 of the first leg 3 ,
  • the ratchet mechanism 17 consists essentially of a spring-biased pawl 18, which prevents a sawtooth profiled tooth edge 19 automatically from rotating against the loading direction.
  • the two legs 3, 4 are each provided with a bolt 30, 31, to which each jaws 32, 33 are rotatably mounted.
  • Point symmetrical to the first axis of rotation 3 the two legs 3, 4 in the region of the lever portions 6 each have a corresponding to the bolt 30, 31 further bolts 34, 35, which serves the plant of the jaws 32, 33.
  • the jaws 32, 33 always move parallel to each other.
  • the second joint 12 can be determined by means of a profiled pawl 41 and a corresponding profile 42 in three different angular positions.
  • the projection 43 of the profile 42 of the pawl 41 is designed here rectangular, so that the second joint 12 is stiff both in the loading direction and in the discharge direction.
  • the illustrated variant shows the arrangement of the rotatable, fe- biased pawl 41 on the handle-near lever 10 of the second's angle 4 and, accordingly, the arrangement of the corresponding profile 45 on the handle-distant lever 9 of the second leg 4.
  • a reverse arrangement is also conceivable.
  • the profile 42 corresponding to the profile 42 of the profiled pawl 41 is here introduced into an exchangeable profile element 60 which is rigidly fastened to the handle-remote lever 9 of the second leg 4.
  • the second embodiment shown in Figures 3 and 4 differs from the first embodiment substantially in the profile 42 of the pawl 41 and the corresponding profile 45 at the handle-proximal end of the handle-distant lever 9 of the second leg 4.
  • the pawl 41st is here provided with a sawtooth-like projection 47 and the corresponding profile 45 has sawtooth-like recesses 48, so that a stiffening of the second joint 12 results only when loading the hand tool 1, the second hinge 12, however, remains rotatable in the discharge direction.
  • the third embodiment of a hand tool 1 according to the invention shown in FIGS. 5, 6, 7 and 8 shows a particularly robust variant of the angular adjustment in the second joint 12 of the second leg 4.
  • the handle end of the handle-proximal lever 10 of the second leg 4 is the same as the handle-near end of the handle-distant lever 9 of the second leg 4 is provided with mutually aligned holes 50 through which a pin 51 is inserted for the purpose of stiffening the joint 12.
  • the joint 12 is stiffened both in the loading direction and in the discharge direction.
