Best Mode of Carrying out the Invention
As it is to be seen in Figure 1, the tool-frame 10 of the device is ending on the lower end of the grip 58 in a shoulder excluding the possibility of the sliding of the hand. In the bore of the handgrip 58, at the lower end of the rod 12 the spring 20 is fixed by means of the screw 22. On the upper end of the rod 12 the base plate 14 is fixed to the rod 12 by means of the pin 18. The discs 16 of the base plate 14 are fitted by means of the screws 64 to the threaded pins corresponding to the bores of the base plate 14.
On the base plate 14, in the threaded bores corresponding to the spirals two discs 16 are fixed with the screws 64. The pin 32 with the eccentric bore, the catch with the releasing arc, the spring fixing the released position and the lever for the quick release serve for the control of the rod 12. In the tool-frame 10, lying opposite to the base plate 14, there is the cutting knife 34 arranged, having been provided with the shank 46 of the knife, the screw-head 66 , the head 50 of the knife-shank and with the spring 48 for lifting the shank 46 of the knife. For the fine-adjustment of. the cutting knife 34 in a vertical direction the device is provided with the faceplate 42, the screw 54 and the spring 52.
The screw 44 on the faceplate 42 serves for the adjustment of the cutting knife and fixing thereof in the required position in course of spiral cuttings. In the set position the faceplate 42 can be fixed by means of the screw 56, while the position of the shank 46 of the knife is fixed by means of the screw 36 with the truncated head. In the tool-frame 10, on both sides the roller 38 is fitted to the cable surface by means of the screw 40. On the part of the tool-frame, in the vicinity of the cutting knife 34 there is the path 60 for the discharge of the chippings. Figures 4 and 5 are showing the arrangement according to the invention for the spiral cutting of the insulating layer of the cable, i. e. the arrangement of the discs 16 in the bores of the base plate 14 for the right-hand and left-hand applications, respectively. In accordance with the desired direction proper adjustment can be performed by turning the faceplate 42 on the shank 46 of the cutting knife.
After having pressed the lever 26, the bar 12 presses the cable by means of the spring 20 to the intended place of cutting. Figure 6 is showing a possible application of the device according to the invention.
As it is to be seen in Figure 10, the shank 46 of the knife and the knife-edge 68 under the slide shoe 70 have been designed for cutting in the longitudinal direction.
Figure 1 is showing another possible cutting method by using the tool-frame 10, wherein on the inner end of the case 74, in a bore there is the spring 76, on one side of the shank 46 of the knife there is a groove 72, the thread 80 serves for fixing the screw 78, namely for fitting it to the bore of the shank 46 of the knife; by releasing the screw 78 from the groove 72 the slide shoe 70 of the shank 46 of the knife and the knife- edge 68 can be expediently adjusted for cutting the insulating layer lengthwise in a most safe manner.
A further advantage of the solution according to the invention lies in that the spring 28 of the rod 12 is cutting the adjusted layer-thickness even at the ovality of the cables, since during the operation the spring 28 is following the outer layer of the cable, thus performing control.
The solution according to the invention can be considered as a further-development of the known solutions, in so far as by modernizing a hand-tool all the processes to be performed in course of the removal of the outer insulating layer of the cable can be performed - compared to known solutions - with a much higher operational safety.
