Definitions

  • a locking pin and a deviation pin are disposed spaced apart and behind each other on the tension lever for locking and deviating of a belt, and for winding the tension side of the belt about the deviation pin with formation of a substantially U-shaped single belt loop in one layer and for laying over itself partly surrounding the locking pin in two layers for support on the locking pin with formation of a double belt loop, while the securing side of the belt is secured to the tension lock, the tension lock is structurally separated from the tension lever and disposed along parallel axes and set off as to the height as well as disposed behind each other. Side cheek members receive at least one of the locking pins and one of the deviation pins.
  • At least one of the pins is formed as a rotatable roller, in order to wind the tension side of the belt in a single belt loop, about the deviation bolt, as well as the superposed belt sections of the single loop in a double belt loop about the locking bolt with formation of a belt self-locking securing system, the belt part surrounding the load as well as the free tension end of the belt disposed substantially parallel to a plane extending through the bolt axes of the tension lock, a counter-bearing is provided for a hooklike support of a support hook pivotally connected to the tension lever.
  • the support hook is releasably engageable with the free tension and of the belt, and the counter-bearing includes a belt part wound about the load.
  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for connecting, tightening, securing, and releasing of belts, in general, and to such apparatus, which is equipped with a tension lock or coupling nut, as well as a swingable tension lever, on which a locking pin and a diversion pin are provided spaced apart from each other and one behind the other for locking and diversion of the belt, whereby the tension side of the belt is guided about the diversion pin in one layer with formation of a substantially U-shaped disposed single belt loop and being laid upon itself by formation of a double belt loop and, partly surrounding in two layers the locking pin, is supported on the latter, while the securing side of the belt is secured on the tension lock.
  • the actual tension process is brought about in this apparatus such, that the manual lever is turned from its starting or locking opening position in a vertical plane for about 180, so that the belt sections disposed on top of each other with formation of a single belt loop during threading in now partly surround one sided with formation of a double belt loop a locking pin prearranged with distance from the deviation pin.
  • the tension end of the belt is disposed with a U- shaped single belt loop about the deviation pin, while the locking pin is partly surrounded by a two-layer belt double loop.
  • a belt self locking retaining system is formed, in which the friction is so great within the belt parts engaging at each other and over each other, respectively, particularly about the part surrounding range of the locking pin, that a sliding of the belt parts opposite to the tension direction is no more possible.
  • the tension position of the tension lever itself is secured by hooking in the latter on the belt part which is engaging the load.
  • the tension lever end is hooked out again from the belt, that means it is unlocked, and turned over opposite to the tension direction again about 180, so that by pulling on the part of the belt which engages the load, a release is made possible.
  • the set requirements can be met through, as it is likewise possible to perform a connection of the tension side of the belt with the apparatus, as well as a tensioning retaining and securing in the tension position, as well as finally also a release of the belt.
  • This apparatus has, however, also a plurality of drawbacks. Since it is necessarily required in the application technique of belts, to leave the locking produced on the belt during the transportation of the load on the belt, the tension lock and the tension lever, which form here a structural unit must remain forcibly on the belt, whereby the tension apparatus become voluminous.
  • a third drawback is also seen in the fact, that an aftertensioning of the belts is only possible, so far as the charge has settled by the first tensioning process. ln addition, the apparatus must be completely returned again into its free releasing position. From the tensioning position obtained with this apparatus, no direct adjustment can be obtained without prior release.
  • this apparatus can, under no circumstances, be considered absolutely safe against accidents, because a return moving force, opposite to the direction of the tension, is charged on the tension lever in its tensioned position after a hooking connection with the belt part engaging the charge, which return moving force in case of a nonorderly hooking-in can lead to the point, that the obtained locking opens automatically. Also, during release, that means during the transformation of the tension lever from the tensioned into the released position, with recognition of the return moving effect, must be particularly carefully handled, if accidents should be avoided.
  • the latter can claim the advantage of the structural separation between the tension lock and the tension lever, so that also here during transportation of goods, merely the tension lock remains on the belt, while the tension lever itself is removable.
  • the tension device can be produced much more economical and less voluminous, as this was the case until now.
  • the short building length of the tension lock is of great advantage in the production.
  • a further functional improvement which is caused by the structure of the new lock, is seen also by the fact, that during threading-in of the tension end of the belt into the tension lock, care is taken that the belt guide and the deviation about the deviation and locking bolts provided in the lock takes place such, that already from the start of the threading-in a belt self-locking retaining system is obtained in the tension lock, which is brought about only upon turning over the tension lever into the tension position in the apparatus of said German Gebrauchsmuster.
  • the tension side of the belt inserted in a belt self-locking retaining system into the tension lock makes possible accordingly a pulling at the free end of the belt, while upon pulling on the belt pan, which engages the load, the friction between the belts is so great, that a belt locking occurs, thus a movement of the belt in this direction is not possible.
  • a tension lever is used formed as insert tension lever, which tension lever, by example, can be hooked in, for instance, with a supporting hook open at one side and engaging pivotally the tension lever in a counter-bearing hook formed as a belt loop, for instance, which counter-bearing, in accordance with the present invention, is disposed on the belt part engaging the load, while the free end of the tension side of the belt is wound again around the deviation and locking pin provided on the tension lever in accordance with a belt selflocking and retaining system.
  • the one hook counter-bearing is a belt loop, it is however, also easily possible within the framework of the present invention, to render adjustable or displaceable, respectively, the hooking-in of the tension lever.
  • the belt could, for instance, be fonned as a pocket belt.
  • the one hook-in counter-bearing is a buckle or the like adjustable on the belt part winding around the load.
  • the tension lever does not have necessarily to remain in the tension lock, rather can remain at the point at which the charge is released for the transportation by unhooking simply the same from the belt-sided hook-on counter bearing.
  • a release of the lock can take place such, that the belt holding bolt of the tension lock, formed as rotatable roller, and therein lies a very decisive advantage of the present invention, for instance, rotates the locking bolt in a direction opposite to the direction of the tension, whereby a releasing of the belt is made possible.
  • the tension lever is not required for releasing the connection.
  • the practical configuration of the turnably mounted roller and rollers, respectively, in the tension lock can be realized such, that it has a handle operable for rotation from the outside.
  • a handle operable for rotation from the outside can be realized such, that it has a handle operable for rotation from the outside.
  • the tension lockitself can be formed with laterally closed or also with one-sided open cheeks, in order to simplify the threading-in of the tension side or under circumstances also the securing side of the belt.
  • the pivoted lever part of the supporting hook on the side pointing towards the gripping part of the tension lever has an abutment for limiting the swinging stroke of the tension lever.
  • it is brought about, that from the start of the setting in of the tension lever to the belt a certain surrounding angle of the couple belt loop about the locking pin is obtained, so that upon swinging of the lever in the direction of the tension immediately a pulling force is exerted on the tension side of the belt, and thus a sliding-through is avoided.
  • the tension lock for setting also the securing side of the belt has a double bolt unit comprising a deviation bolt and a locking bolt, of which, under circumstances, one is designed as a rotatable roller, about which double bolt unit the belt start, exactly as the tension side of the belt, by formation is windable about the locking bolt, by formation of a single belt loop about the deviation bolt and a belt double loop about the locking bolt.
  • the tension lock is formed also on the securing side of the belt in the same manner as the tension side of the belt in the same manner as the tension side of the tension lock, then one can also obtain on the securing side a belt self-locking retaining system, whereby a sewing or other securing of the belt on the securing side on the tension lock is superfluous.
  • the belt securing side and the tension side of the belt can be coupled in a simple insert and pull-in process with the tension lock, so that then both inserted belt parts can be pretensioned by manual force, whereby both belt ends are secured due to the present self-retardation against return sliding in the system.
  • a belt self-locking retaining system is formed from the start of the tension in the tension lock, which system has been obtained in the firstmentioned apparatus only by turning over of the tension lever in the tension position joint structurally with the tension lock.
  • the system should find its realization at both ends of the tension lock, whereby under circumstances also one of the two bolts can be immovably secured on the part of the tension lock holding the belt securing side.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective front view of the tension lock designed in accordance with the present invention with a belt sewn in on the securing side;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective front view corresponding with that shown in FIG. 1 yet disclosing a second embodiment with an adjustable securing side;
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective front view with a tension lock, as shown in FIG. 2, here, however, with a broken-off side cheek, with added tension lever as well as with a one-hook counter bearing formed as sewn belt loop; and
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective front elevation of the tension lever which penetrates into an adjustable one-hook counter bearing.
  • the apparatus comprises a tension lock A, a tension lever B and a one-hook counter bearing C.
  • the tension lock A comprises in the embodiment disclosed in FIG. 1 two side cheeks between which bolts 11 and 12 (FIG. 3) are disposed, which are arranged in parallel axles and set off relative to each other as to height and one behind the other. These bolts 11 and 12 constitute thereby the tension part of the tension lock, while the bolts 11a and 12a serve the purpose of receiving adjustably the securing side of the belt. Contrary thereto, a rigid securing of the belt securing side in accordance with FIG. 1 is possible.
  • the bolt of the tension lock is formed as a rotatably mounted roller, which is formed as a roller equipped on the outside with a knurled head 13, as well as an axial insert opening 14 (FIG. 2), whereby a rotary tool can be provided at the knurled head 13 to be rotated manually or can be received in the axial recess 14.
  • the belt 15 is inserted on the tension side 11 and 12 of the tension lock such, that the deviation bolt 11 is surrounded by the belt 15 in a U-shaped set single belt loop 15a. Behind the deviation bolt 11 the belt parts fonning the loop 15a, with formation of a belt double loop 15b, are superposed relative to each other and guided jointly about the locking bolt 12. In the belt sections disposed opposite each other, the belt part 15 is the one which engages the load, while the belt part 15c constitutes the tension side of the belt.
  • The-securing side of the belt is wound around and secured to the bolts 11a and 12a in the same manner as at the tension end, whereby in connection with the present embodiment on both tension lock ends a belt self-clamping retaining system of the belt is achieved.
  • this system it is possible to pull by manual force, at the belt end 15c in order to obtain a pretension. A sliding by pulling on the belt part 15 in the indicated arrow direction, would not be possible by the obtained self-locking obtained in the lock, so that in this direction the belt is not movable.
  • a tension lever B In order to be able to tension, starting from the threaded-in position, the belt 15, one avails itself of a tension lever B (FIGS. 3 and 4).
  • This tension lever B has a gripping part 16 on which spaced apart on top of each other a locking pin 17 as well as a deviation pin 18 are provided.
  • a one-sided open supporting hook I9 is pivoted to the gripping part 16 and can be hooked into a loop 20 of the belt (FIG. 3) or of a hooking counter bearing designed in any other manner of the belt part 15 engaging the load.
  • the grip portion 16 of the tension lever B can be moved in the indicated arrow direction, whereby due to the increased self-locking within the range of the double belt loop 15b set within the range about the locking pin 17 an after-pull of the tension end in the indicated arrow direction is made possible upon performing the returning stroke of the grip part 16, the free tension end 150 can be pulled after for the fed tension length, whereby due to renewed reswinging in the indicated arrow direction, the tension end 15c can be aftertensioned without steps, so that the tension path is practically unlimited within the range between the tension lock and the insert position of the lever B. Also the tensioning in any position can be interrupted or for the purpose of aftertensioning restarted again. Forces which work in the indicated arrow direction onto the belt 15 are caught by the self-locking and prevent a displacement of the belt.
  • the one-hook counter-bearing C is formed as sewn-on loop.
  • This loop can be formed in addition to sewing, also by using a suitable buckle 22, 23 and 24, which has the advantage that the one-hook counter-bearing in its position to the closing can be newly determined prior to each tensioning process and thereby an individual setting of the tension path to the prevailing load safety problem is made possible.
  • the tension path is actually unlimited in the above-described apparatus.
  • the buckle itself that means without formation of a loose belt loop, can be formed as a one-hook counter-bearing in accordance with FIG. 4.
  • An apparatus for connecting, tightening, securing and releasing of belts comprising:
  • a locking pin and a deviation pin disposed spaced apart and behind each other on said tension lever for locking and deviating of a belt, and for winding the tension side of said belt about said deviation pin with formation of a substantially U-shaped single belt loop in one layer and for laying over itself partly surrounding said locking pin in two layers for support on said locking pin with formation of a double belt loop, while the securing side of said belt is secured to said tension lock;
  • tension lock being structurally separated from said tension lever and disposed along parallel axes and set off as to the height as well as disposed behind each other;
  • side cheek members receiving at least one of said locking pins and one of said deviation pins
  • At least one of said pins being formed as a rotatable roller, in order to wind the tension side of said belt in a single belt loop, about said deviation bolt, as well as the superposed belt sections of the single loop in a double belt loop about said locking bolt with formation of a belt self-locking securing system, the belt part surrounding said load as well as the free tension end of said belt disposed substantially parallel to a plane extending through the bolt axes of said tension lock;
  • said counter-bearing including a belt part wound about said load.
  • said tension lever has a grip portion and comprises an inserttension lever equipped with said support hook;
  • said insert-tension lever can be hooked in with said support hook into a loop or in a one-hook counter bearing on said belt part wound about said load.
  • said hook kit counter-bearing comprises a sewn loop, a loop to be formed by a buckle or forms itself a buckle.
  • said tension lever comprises a clamping device including a clamping lever securable to said belt part wound about said load.
  • said support hook has a pivot lever part
  • the latter includes an abutment member on the side pointing to the grip part of said tension lever for limiting the swinging stroke of said tension lever.
  • said tension lock comprises a double bolt unit including a deviation bolt and a locking bolt one of said bolts being formed as a rotatable roller;
  • said belt securing side of said belt being wound about an additional deviation belt with formation of a single belt loop and about an additional locking bolt with formation of a double belt loop.
