Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Klebegewichtezange zur Demontage von Ausgleichsgewichten für Fahrzeugräder, die an der Innenfläche der Felge festgeklebt sind, mit zwei Hebelgriffen, die über ein Gewerbe drehbar miteinander verbunden sind, und mit zwei im Wesentlichen rechtwinklig zu den Hebelgriffen angeordneten Zangenbacken, die ein Maul bilden.The present invention relates to an adhesive weight pliers for disassembling balance weights for vehicle wheels, which are glued to the inner surface of the rim, with two lever handles, which are rotatably connected to each other via a trade, and with two substantially perpendicular to the lever handles arranged jaws which a jaw form.
Zum Auswuchten von Fahrzeugrädern werden Ausgleichsgewichte an den Felgen befestigt. Bei herkömmlichen Stahlfelgen können die Ausgleichsgewichte am Rand der Felge festgeklemmt werden. Bei Aluminiumfelgen ist hingegen ein solcher Rand nicht vorgesehen, weshalb die Ausgleichsgewichte dort mittels doppelseitigem Klebeband an der Innenfläche festgeklebt werden. Die Ausgleichsgewichte selbst bestehen überwiegend aus Zink, Kunststoff oder Eisen. Herkömmliche Bleigewichte, wie sie früher verwendet wurden, werden heutzutage nicht mehr eingesetzt.To balance vehicle wheels, balance weights are attached to the rims. In conventional steel rims, the balance weights can be clamped to the edge of the rim. For aluminum rims, however, such an edge is not provided, which is why the balancing weights are glued there by means of double-sided adhesive tape on the inner surface. The balance weights themselves consist predominantly of zinc, plastic or iron. Conventional lead weights, as used previously, are no longer used today.
Bei einem Reifenwechsel müssen die Reifen neu ausgewuchtet werden, wozu die Klebegewichte von der Felge abgenommen werden müssen. Hierzu werden die Ausgleichsgewichte mittels spezieller Kunststoffkeile oder Schraubenzieher abgehebelt. Trotz hoher Sorgfalt beim Abnehmen der Ausgleichsgewichte führt das Abheben in den meisten Fällen zu Beschädigungen der Felgenoberfläche, was selbst bei kleinen Kratzern zur Korrosion der Felge führt. Durch die Verwendung von stetig stärker haftenden Klebstoffen ist das rückstandsfreie Ablösen der Ausgleichsgewichte zudem relativ aufwändig geworden.When changing tires, the tires must be re-balanced, for which the adhesive weights must be removed from the rim. For this purpose, the balance weights are levered off using special plastic wedges or screwdrivers. Despite the great care taken in removing balance weights, lifting off in most cases will damage the rim surface, resulting in corrosion of the rim, even with small scratches. By the use of adhesives adhering more and more strongly, the residue-free detachment of the balance weights has also become relatively complicated.
Auch der Versuch mehrlagige Klebestreifen zu verwenden, die an den Ausgleichsgewichten stärker haften als an der Felgenoberfläche, hat nicht zu dem gewünschten Ergebnis geführt, dass keine Klebereste auf der Felge zurückbleiben.Also, the attempt to use multi-layer adhesive strips that adhere to the balance weights more than at the rim surface, has not led to the desired result that no adhesive residue remains on the rim.
Alternativ zur Verwendung von Kunststoffkeilen und Schraubenziehern wird in
Die beschriebene Gewichtszange ist für die Verwendung von Klebegewichten aus Zink, Kunststoff oder Eisen ungeeignet, da das Zusammenquetschen dieser Gewichte nicht mehr möglich ist.The weight caliper described is unsuitable for the use of adhesive weights of zinc, plastic or iron, since the squeezing of these weights is no longer possible.
Eine weitere Zange zum Entfernen von Ausgleichsgewichten wird in
Schließlich offenbaren
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Gewichtezange zu schaffen, mit der insbesondere Klebegewichte aus Zink, Eisen oder Kunststoff rückstandsfrei von einer Felge abgehoben werden können, ohne die Felge dabei zu beschädigen.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a weight pliers, with the particular adhesive weights of zinc, iron or plastic can be lifted without residue from a rim, without damaging the rim.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Gewichtezange nach Anspruch 1 gelöst, bei der erfindungsgemäß beide Zangenbacken klauenförmige Greifkanten aufweisen. Durch diese spezielle Ausgestaltung mit zwei gegenüberliegenden Greifkanten, die vorzugsweise als gezahnte Greifkanten ausgebildet sind, ist ein sicherer Halt beim Festhalten der Ausgleichsgewichte gewährleistet, so dass die Klebegewichte rückstandsfrei von der Felge abgehoben werden können, ohne dass die Gefahr besteht, dass die Zange beim Ablösen von den Klebegewichten abrutscht und/oder die Felge beschädigt.This object is achieved by the weighting tongs according to
Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der vorliegenden Erfindung werden nachfolgend und in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Further preferred embodiments of the present invention are given below and in the subclaims.
Nach einer ersten bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind an beiden Zangenbacken verzapft zueinander abstehende Auflagebacken mit jeweils einer Anschlagfläche ausgebildet. Dabei sind die Auflagebacken derart angebracht, dass dünne Ausgleichsgewichte felgennah gegriffen werden und vergleichsweise dickere Ausgleichsgewichte mit einem großen Abstand zur Felge festgehalten werden. Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass die Greifkanten der Zange nicht unter die Ausgleichsgewichte geraten und die Felge dort beschädigen. Ferner führt die verzapfte Anordnung der Auflagebacken zur einer Auflagefläche mit einer variablen Größe und mithin unabhängig von dem verwendeten Klebegewicht zu einer vollflächigen Auflage für die Oberseite der Ausgleichsgewichte und sorgt somit für eine hohe Stabilität beim Ablösen der Klebegewichte.According to a first preferred embodiment of the invention, two bearing jaws, which are in the form of dangling mutually on both jaws, are each formed with a stop surface. The support jaws are mounted so that thin balance weights are gripped close to the rim and comparatively thicker balance weights are held at a great distance from the rim. This ensures that the gripping edges of the pliers do not fall under the counterweights and damage the rim there. Furthermore, the verzapfte arrangement of the support jaws leads to a support surface with a variable size and Consequently, regardless of the adhesive weight used to a full-surface support for the top of the balance weights and thus ensures a high stability when removing the adhesive weights.
Damit die verzapften Auflagebacken unabhängig von der Winkelstellung der Greifkanten nicht auseinanderrutschen, ist vorzugsweise ein Öffnungsbegrenzer vorgesehen, so dass die Öffnungsbreite des Maules limitiert ist. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass die Auflagebacken immer auf den Auswuchtgewichten aufliegen und die Greifkanten die Felgenoberfläche nicht berühren und/oder beschädigen.Thus, the pinned bearing jaws do not slip apart, regardless of the angular position of the gripping edges, an opening limiter is preferably provided so that the opening width of the mouth is limited. This ensures that the bearing jaws always rest on the balance weights and the gripping edges do not touch and / or damage the rim surface.
Schließlich besitzt die Klebegewichtezange nach einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung eine Spiralfeder zum selbstständigen Öffnen der Zange, die gegen die Kraft der Feder von einer Offen- in eine Schließstellung überführbar ist, was die Handhabbarkeit der Zange deutlich verbessert.Finally, the adhesive gripping tongs according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a coil spring for independently opening the pliers, which can be converted from the open to a closed position against the force of the spring, which significantly improves the handling of the pliers.
