Description

Kabelbinder und Verfahren zur Herstellung von Kabelbindern Cable ties and method of making cable ties
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kabelbinder mit einem Schuh und einem flexiblen Ende zur Aufnahme und Befestigung im Schuh. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von derartigen Kabelbindern, bei dem eine Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern gemeinsam in einem Formwerkzeug geformt wird. Die Erfindung betrifft schließlich ein zur Herstellung solcher Kabelbinder geeignetes Formwerkzeug. Derartige Kabelbinder sind in der Elektromontage gebräuchlich. Sie weisen eine längliche Form mit einem Schuh an einem Ende auf, in dem eine Befestigungsöffnung mit einem Rastmittel vorgesehen ist, in den das andere flexible Ende des Kabelbinders einführbar ist, wobei das Rastmittel mit Querrillen zusammenwirkt, die über die Längserstreckung des Kabelbinders vorgesehen sind, so daß das Ende im Schuh nur in einer Richtung zum Zusammenziehen des Kabelbinders bewegt werden kann.The invention relates to a cable tie with a shoe and a flexible end for receiving and fastening in the shoe. The invention further relates to a method for producing such cable ties, in which a plurality of cable ties are formed together in one mold. Finally, the invention relates to a molding tool suitable for producing such cable ties. Such cable ties are common in electrical installation. They have an elongated shape with a shoe at one end, in which a fastening opening with a latching means is provided, into which the other flexible end of the cable tie can be inserted, the latching means cooperating with transverse grooves which are provided over the longitudinal extent of the cable tie, so that the end in the shoe can only be moved in one direction to contract the cable tie.
Es versteht sich, daß derartige Kabelbinder mit unterschiedlichen Längen und Größen verwendet werden. Dies hat zur Folge, daß immer eine Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern in einer Verpackung aufbewahrt werden muß und daß ein Monteur verschiedene Verpak- kungen mit den gängigen Kabelbindergrößen bei der Montage mit sich führen muß. Ferner müssen entsprechende Gebinde zu verkaufsfertigen Verpackungen zusammengefaßt werden, die beispielsweise in Baumärkten angeboten werden. Einzelne Kabelbinder, die aus der Verpackung entnommen sind, lassen sich jedoch wegen ihrer schlanken, länglichen Form teilweise nur schwer von anderen Kabelbindern ähnlicher Größe unterscheiden und sind in größeren, gut gefüllten Werkzeugkoffern teilweise nur nach längerem Suchen aufzufinden.It is understood that such cable ties with different lengths and sizes are used. The consequence of this is that a plurality of cable ties must always be kept in one package and that a fitter has to carry various packages with the common cable tie sizes during assembly. Corresponding containers must also be combined into ready-to-sell packaging, which is offered for example in hardware stores. Individual cable ties that are removed from the packaging, however, are sometimes difficult to distinguish from other cable ties of a similar size due to their slim, elongated shape and can sometimes only be found in larger, well-filled tool cases after a long search.
Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Nachteile des Standes der Technik zu vermeiden und verbesserte Kabelbinder sowie ein verbessertes Verfahren zur Herstellung von Kabelbindern anzugeben. Ferner soll ein geeignetes Formwerkzeug zur Herstellung solcher Kabelbinder angegeben werden.The invention is therefore based on the object of avoiding the disadvantages of the prior art and of providing improved cable ties and an improved method for producing cable ties. Furthermore, a suitable molding tool for producing such cable ties is to be specified.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß bei einem Kabelbinder gemäß der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß der Kabelbinder mit weiteren Kabelbindern zu einem Paket verbunden ist, das über Stege oder lösbare Verbindungsmittel zusammengehalten ist.This object is achieved in a cable tie according to the type mentioned in that the cable tie is connected with further cable ties to form a package which is held together by means of webs or releasable connecting means.
Hinsichtlich des Verfahrens wird die Aufgabe bei einem Verfahren gemäß der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Kabelbinder während des Formvorgangs durch Stege zu einem zusammenhängenden Paket verbunden werden, von dem sich wahlweise einzelne oder mehrere Kabelbinder abtrennen lassen.With regard to the method, the object is achieved according to the invention in a method according to the type mentioned at the outset in that the cable ties are connected by webs during the molding process to form a coherent package, from which one or more cable ties can optionally be separated.
In alternativer Ausführung der Erfindung wird die Aufgabe bei einem Verfahren zur Herstellung von Kabelbindern, die jeweils einen Schuh und ein flexibles Ende zur Aufnahme und Befestigung im Schuh aufweisen, bei dem die Kabelbinder in einem Formwerkzeug geformt werden, dadurch gelöst, daß während des Formvorgangs am Schuh eines jeden Kabelbinders lösbare Verbindungsmittel angeformt werden, die eine Verbindung einer Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern zu einem Paket erlauben.In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the object is achieved in a method for producing cable ties, each having a shoe and a flexible end for receiving and fastening in the shoe, in which the cable ties are shaped in a mold, in that during the molding process on Shoe of each cable tie releasable connecting means are formed, which allow a plurality of cable ties to be connected to a package.
Schließlich wird die Aufgabe der Erfindung bei einem Formwerkzeug zur Herstellung von Kabelbindern, mit einem Formhohlraum zum Spritzgießen mehrerer Kabelbinder nebeneinander in einem Arbeitsgang dadurch gelöst, daß im Formhohlraum Vertiefungen zur Ausformung mehrerer über Stege zusammenhängender Kabelbinder vorgesehen sind.Finally, the object of the invention is achieved in a mold for the production of cable ties, with a mold cavity for injection molding a plurality of cable ties side by side in one operation in that recesses are provided in the mold cavity for forming a plurality of cable ties connected via webs.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird auf diese Weise vollkommen gelöst. Dadurch, daß erfindungsgemäß immer mehrere Kabelbinder über Stege oder über lösbare Verbindungsmittel zu einem Paket zusammengehalten sind, ist immer eine Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern ohne eine zusätzliche Verpackung in Form eines gemeinsamen Paketes vorhanden, so daß unterschiedliche Kabelbinder leicht auseinandergehalten werden können und daß eine zusätzliche Umverpackung überflüssig wird. Dies bedeutet einerseits Vorteile beim Gebrauch, verbilligt die Herstellung und Lagerhaltung der Kabelbinder und erleichtert andererseits den Verkauf.The object of the invention is completely achieved in this way. Due to the fact that according to the invention always a plurality of cable ties are held together to form a package via webs or via releasable connecting means, a plurality of cable ties is always present in the form of a common package without additional packaging, so that different cable ties can be easily kept apart and that additional packaging is unnecessary becomes. On the one hand, this means advantages in use, reduces the cost of manufacturing and storing the cable ties and, on the other hand, makes sales easier.
In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind benachbarte Kabelbinder über Stege, vorzugsweise zwischen ihren Schuhen, zusammengehalten .In an advantageous development of the invention, adjacent cable ties are held together via webs, preferably between their shoes.
Diese Maßnahme hat den Vorteil, daß von einem vorhandenen Kabelbinderpaket immer nur dann ein Kabelbinder abgetrennt werden muß, wenn der Kabelbinder benötigt wird. Gleichfalls ist es möglich, zur Herstellung einer besonders festen Verbindung mehrere, zusammenhängende Kabelbinder zu verwenden, wobei zunächst nur ein Kabelbinder um die miteinander zu verbindenden Gegenstände herumgelegt wird, wobei die anderen benachbarten Kabelbinder sich jedoch bereits in der Anwendungsposition befinden, so daß ein erneutes Ansetzen oder Positionieren in der Regel nicht erforderlich ist.This measure has the advantage that a cable tie only has to be disconnected from an existing cable tie package when the cable tie is needed. Likewise, it is possible to use a plurality of coherent cable ties to establish a particularly firm connection, initially only one cable tie being placed around the objects to be connected to one another, but the other adjacent cable ties are already in the application position, so that a renewed attachment or positioning is usually not required.
Dabei sind die Stege zur Verbindung zwischen den Kabelbindern vorzugsweise zwischen den Schuhen vorgesehen, da somit überstehendes Material im Bereich des flexiblen Endes vermieden wird, was eine Einführung bzw. ein Durchziehen durch die Befestigungsöffnung behindern würde. Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die Kabelbinder vorzugsweise an ihren Schuhen mit einem gemeinsamen Tragteil über Stege verbunden.The webs for the connection between the cable ties are preferably provided between the shoes, since protruding material in the region of the flexible end is thus avoided, which would hinder insertion or pulling through the fastening opening. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the cable ties are preferably connected on their shoes to a common support part via webs.
Diese Maßnahme hat den Vorteil, daß das gemeinsame Tragteil gleichzeitig im Verkauf für Werbeaufdrücke, für Beschriftung und dergleichen verwendet werden kann. Auch können Prägeaufschriften und dergleichen gleich bei der Herstellung in die Tragplatte eingebracht werden.This measure has the advantage that the common support part can be used simultaneously in sales for advertising, for lettering and the like. Embossed inscriptions and the like can also be introduced into the support plate during manufacture.
In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung dieser Ausführung ist das Tragteil als Platte ausgebildet, in der ein Befestigungsmittel, vorzugsweise eine Befestigungsöffnung, vorgesehen ist.In an advantageous development of this embodiment, the supporting part is designed as a plate in which a fastening means, preferably a fastening opening, is provided.
Dies hat den Vorteil einer besonders einfachen Präsentationsmöglichkeit im Verkauf, da das Kabelbinderpaket einfach mit seiner Befestigungsöffnung auf eine Stange aufgeschoben werden kann, die an einem Verkaufsregal vorgesehen ist.This has the advantage of a particularly simple presentation option in sales, since the cable tie package can simply be pushed with its fastening opening onto a rod which is provided on a sales shelf.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführung der Erfindung sind die Stege als Abrißstege ausgebildet.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the webs are designed as tear-off webs.
Hierdurch ergibt sich der Vorteil einer besonders einfachen Handhabbarkeit. Wegen der besonders hohen Reißfestigkeit des für Kabelbinder verwendeten Materials ist es hierzu notwendig, die Stege sehr dünn auszubilden.This has the advantage of particularly easy handling. Because of the particularly high tensile strength of the material used for cable ties, it is necessary to make the webs very thin.
Werden dagegen die Stege in etwas größerer Stärke ausgebildet, so lassen sich die Kabelbinder nicht mehr von Hand abtrennen, sondern werden einfach beispielsweise mittels eines Seitenschneiders abgetrennt. Soweit anstelle von Stegen lösbare Verbindungsmittel an den Kabelbindern vorgesehen werden, werden hierzu in bevorzugter Weiterbildung der Erfindung am Schuh Mittel zum Verclipsen mit benachbarten Kabelbindern oder mit einem gemeinsamen Tragteil vorgesehen, wobei es sich vorzugsweise um eine Rastaufnahme und einen Raststeg am Schuh handelt und wobei jeweils ein Raststeg zum Einclipsen in die Rastaufnahme eines benachbarten Kabelbinders ausgebildet ist.If, on the other hand, the webs are made somewhat thicker, the cable ties can no longer be cut off by hand, but are simply cut off, for example, using a side cutter. Insofar as detachable connecting means are provided on the cable ties instead of webs, in a preferred development of the invention means for this purpose are provided on the shoe for clipping with adjacent cable ties or with a common support part, which is preferably a snap-in receptacle and a snap-in bar on the shoe and in each case a locking bar for clipping into the locking receptacle of an adjacent cable tie is formed.
Auf diese Weise lassen sich die Kabelbinder leicht zu einem Paket zusammensetzen und ohne zusätzliche Hilfsmittel einzelne Kabelbinder zum Gebrauch abtrennen.In this way, the cable ties can be easily assembled into a package and individual cable ties can be separated for use without additional aids.
Es versteht sich, daß die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale der Erfindung nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der Erfindung zu verlassen.It goes without saying that the features of the invention mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the combination specified in each case, but also in other combinations or on their own without departing from the scope of the invention.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung. Es zeigen:Further features and advantages of the invention result from the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments with reference to the drawing. Show it:
Fig. 1 eine Ansicht einer Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern, die erfindungsgemäß über Stege mit einem gemeinsamen Tragteil verbunden sind;Figure 1 is a view of a plurality of cable ties which are connected according to the invention via webs with a common support member.
Fig. 2 ein Formwerkzeug für die Herstellung eines Paketes von Kabelbindern, wobei nur eine Formhälfte in der Aufsicht vereinfacht dargestellt ist und Fig. 3 eine alternative Ausführung eines Paketes von Kabelbindern, wobei die Kabelbinder im Bereich ihrer Schuhe miteinander verclipst sind und nur drei Kabelbinder im Bereich ihrer Schuhe vergrößert dargestellt sind.Fig. 2 is a mold for the production of a package of cable ties, only one half of the mold is shown in simplified form in the plan and Fig. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of a package of cable ties, the cable ties are clipped together in the area of their shoes and only three cable ties are shown enlarged in the area of their shoes.
In Fig. 1 ist eine Mehrzahl von Kabelbindern 12, die mit einem gemeinsamen Tragteil 22 über dünne Stege 20 verbunden sind, als zusammenhängendes Paket dargestellt und insgesamt mit der Ziffer 10 bezeichnet.In Fig. 1, a plurality of cable ties 12, which are connected to a common support member 22 via thin webs 20, are shown as a cohesive package and generally designated by the number 10.
Die einzelnen Kabelbinder 12 sind in an sich bekannter Weise ausgebildet und sind aus einem hoch reißfesten, flexiblen Kunststoffmaterial hergestellt. Sie weisen die Form eines flachen Bandes auf, an dessen einem Ende ein Schuh 14 angeformt ist, in dem eine Befestigungsöffnung 16 ausgebildet ist, in der sich ein nicht dargestelltes Rastelement befindet. Über die Längserstreckung des Kabelbinders 12 sind auf der Oberfläche des Bandes in engen Abständen nacheinander Querrillen vorgesehen. Beim Einstecken des dem Schuh 14 gegenüberliegenden flexiblen Endes 18 in die Befestigungsöffnung 16 wirkt das Rastmittel in der Befestigungsöffnung 16 mit den Querrillen derart zusammen, daß der Kabelbinder nur zugezogen werden kann, jedoch sein flexibles Ende 18 nicht mehr aus der Befestigungsöffnung 16 herausgezogen werden kann.The individual cable ties 12 are designed in a manner known per se and are made from a highly tear-resistant, flexible plastic material. They have the shape of a flat band, on one end of which a shoe 14 is formed, in which a fastening opening 16 is formed, in which a locking element, not shown, is located. Over the longitudinal extent of the cable tie 12 transverse grooves are successively provided on the surface of the tape at close intervals. When the flexible end 18 opposite the shoe 14 is inserted into the fastening opening 16, the locking means in the fastening opening 16 cooperates with the transverse grooves in such a way that the cable tie can only be closed, but its flexible end 18 can no longer be pulled out of the fastening opening 16.
Die einzelnen Kabelbinder 12 sind nun jeweils an ihrem Schuh 14 über den Steg 20 mit dem gemeinsamen Tragteil 22 verbunden, wobei der Steg 20 derart dünn ausgebildet sein kann, daß sich einzelne Kabelbinder 12 von dem Tragteil 22 abreißen lassen. In der Regel wird es allerdings erwünscht sein, eine festere Verbindung zum Tragteil 22 herzustellen, so daß die Stege 20 nur durch eine Zange, z.B. mittels eines Seitenschneiders, durchtrennt werden können.The individual cable ties 12 are now each connected to the common support part 22 on their shoe 14 via the web 20, wherein the web 20 can be made so thin that individual cable ties 12 can be torn off the support part 22. As a rule, however, it will be desirable to establish a stronger connection to the supporting part 22, so that the webs 20 can only be severed by a pair of pliers, for example by means of a side cutter.
Das gemeinsame Tragteil 22 ist plattenförmig ausgebildet und kann beispielsweise, wie dargestellt, etwa den Umriß eines Kleiderbügels besitzen, wobei im oberen Ende eine Befestigungsöffnung 24 vorgesehen ist, mittels derer das gesamte aus Tragteil 22 und Kabelbindern 12 bestehende Paket 10 z.B. auf einem Haken aufgehängt werden kann oder auf einer an einem Verkaufsregal vorgesehene Stange aufgeschoben werden kann.The common support part 22 is plate-shaped and can, for example, as shown, have the outline of a hanger, with a fastening opening 24 being provided in the upper end, by means of which the entire package 10 consisting of support part 22 and cable ties 12 e.g. can be hung on a hook or slipped on a pole provided on a sales shelf.
Das gemeinsame Tragteil 22 kann gleichzeitig als Grundfläche zur Aufbringung von Aufklebern oder auch zur Einprägung von Werbeaufschriften und anderen Bezeichnungen dienen.The common supporting part 22 can simultaneously serve as a base for the application of stickers or also for embossing advertising labels and other names.
Ein solches Paket 10 von Kabelbindern 12 läßt sich durch Spritzgießen in einem gemeinsamen Arbeitsgang herstellen.Such a package 10 of cable ties 12 can be produced by injection molding in a common operation.
Hierzu ist beispielhaft in Fig. 2 ein Formwerkzeug 26 angedeutet, wovon nur eine Formhälfte dargestellt ist. Im Formwerkzeug 26 befindet sich ein Formhohlraum 28, der zur Herstellung von insgesamt acht nebeneinander parallel angeordneten Kabelbindern 30 ausgebildet ist, die durch Stege 32 zwischen Schuhen 34 benachbarter Kabelbinder 30 zusammengehalten sind.For this purpose, a molding tool 26 is indicated by way of example in FIG. 2, of which only one mold half is shown. In the molding tool 26 there is a mold cavity 28, which is designed to produce a total of eight cable ties 30 arranged parallel to one another, which are held together by webs 32 between shoes 34 of adjacent cable ties 30.
In Fig. 2 wurde aus Vereinfachungsgründen auf die Darstellung von Angußstegen und anderen Details verzichtet. Die Kabelbinder 30, die mit dem Formwerkzeug 26 gemäß Fig. 2 hergestellt werden, sind, wie bereits erwähnt, im Unterschied zu der Ausführung gemäß Fig. 1 nicht mit einem gemeinsamen Tragteil verbunden, sondern lediglich durch die Stege 32 zwischen ihren Schuhen 34 miteinander verbunden.In Fig. 2, the representation of sprue bars and other details has been omitted for reasons of simplification. The cable ties 30, which are produced with the molding tool 26 according to FIG. 2, are, as already mentioned, in contrast to the embodiment according to FIG. 1 not connected to a common supporting part, but only connected to one another by the webs 32 between their shoes 34 .
Dies hat den Vorteil, daß zur Herstellung besonders fester Kabelbindungen auch gleich mehrere Kabelbinder 30 verwendet werden können, z.B. zwei Kabelbinder 30, die mittels eines Seitenschneiders von den übrigen Kabelbindern abgetrennt werden. Da die beiden benachbarten Kabelbinder 30 über einen Verbindungssteg 32 zusammengehalten sind, kann zunächst der eine Kabelbinder 30 um das zusammenzubindende Gut herumgelegt und durch Einstecken seines flexiblen Endes 36 in die Befestigungsöffnung 38 und anschließendes Anziehen befestigt werden. Danach kann sogleich der zweite Kabelbinder befestigt werden, ohne daß dieser erneut in Position gebracht werden muß.This has the advantage that several cable ties 30 can also be used to produce particularly strong cable ties, e.g. two cable ties 30, which are separated from the other cable ties by means of a side cutter. Since the two adjacent cable ties 30 are held together by a connecting web 32, the one cable tie 30 can first be placed around the item to be bound and fastened by inserting its flexible end 36 into the fastening opening 38 and then tightening it. The second cable tie can then be attached immediately without having to be repositioned.
Es versteht sich, daß natürlich sowohl Verbindungsstege zwischen benachbarten Kabelbindern 30 gemäß Fig. 2 vorgesehen sein können, und daß zusätzlich auch Verbindungsstege 20 zu einem gemeinsamen Tragteil 22 gemäß Fig. 1 vorgesehen sein können.It goes without saying that both connecting webs between adjacent cable ties 30 according to FIG. 2 can of course be provided, and that connecting webs 20 to a common support part 22 according to FIG. 1 can also be provided.
Jedoch befinden sich die Stege 20 bzw. 32 vorzugsweise an den Schuhen 14 bzw. 34, um zu vermeiden, daß nach dem Abtrennen stehenbleibende Reste das Einführen des flexiblen Endes 18 bzw. 36 in die Befestigungsöffnung 16 bzw. 38 des Kabelbinders 12 bzw. 30 behindern.However, the webs 20 and 32 are preferably located on the shoes 14 and 34, in order to prevent residues remaining after the separation, the introduction of the flexible end 18 or 36 into the fastening opening 16 or 38 of the cable tie 12 or 30 hinder.
Eine alternative Ausführung der Erfindung ist in Fig. 3 dargestellt. Hierbei sind an jedem Schuh 44 eines Kabelbinders 42 auf einer Seite ein Raststeg 48 und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite eine Rastaufnahme 46 vorgesehen, so daß ein Paket 40 von Kabelbindern 42 einfach durch Zusammenclipsen benachbarter Kabelbinder 42 gebildet wird. An alternative embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 3.
