  • Patent number: 11008123
    Abstract: A manual binding tool has a first operating part opposite a handle unit and is capable of shifting positions relative to the tool body. A tightening mechanism pulls a second end in the lengthwise direction of the cable tie band part relative to a head part via operation of the first operating part. A holding mechanism holds the second end in the lengthwise direction of the band part pulled by the tightening mechanism to prevent a return movement. Second operating parts are provided to shift positions relative to the tool body. A fastening mechanism secures the second end of the band part in response to the operation of the second operating parts. Third operating parts are provided to shift positions relative to the tool body. A cutting mechanism cuts the second end of the band part in the lengthwise direction in response to the operation of the third operating parts.

  • Patent number: 11008124
    Abstract: A manual bundling tool has a first operating means that positionally shifts relative to a tool body opposite a handle. A tightening mechanism pulls an other end of a cable tie band in relative to a head part by positionally shifting the first operating means. A holding mechanism holds the other end side of the band part pulled by the tightening mechanism so as to prevent return movement. A second operating means positionally shifts relative to the tool body. A securing mechanism secures the other end side of the band part to the one end side of the band part in response to positionally shifting the second operating means. A release operation means positionally shifts relative to the tool body and a release mechanism releases the hold on the cable tie band part by the holding mechanism in response to a positionally shifting the release operation means.

  • Patent number: 10450096
    Abstract: A manual binding tool in which, without transferring the fingers, tightening and cutting can be performed simply by gripping a pair of levers. The manual binding tool includes a tightening mechanism that pulls a projection tie portion that is passed through a head portion, a cutting mechanism that cuts the projection tie portion in the vicinity of the head portion, first and second levers, a tightening linkage mechanism that links the levers with the tightening mechanism in a state where the projection tie portion is pulled by gripping of the levers in a range within a predetermined angle, and a cutting linkage mechanism that links the levers with the cutting mechanism in a state where the projection tie portion is cut by gripping the levers beyond the predetermined angle. A switching mechanism alternatively allows one of the tightening or cutting linkage mechanism to operate based upon tightening force.

  • Patent number: 10400917
    Abstract: In a locking structure of a cable tie, the cable tie includes a strap portion and a head portion. A first locking hole at a proximal end of the strap portion, and a second locking hole of the head portion, are formed in a shape wherein their widths in a short-side direction of the strap portion are longer than those in a longitudinal direction of the strap portion, and include a first inner wall surface and a second inner wall surface, respectively, that extend in a direction substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the strap portion, on the side nearer to the proximal end of the cable tie. The distal end of the strap portion has a protruded portion that protrudes through the first locking hole and into the second locking hole.

  • Patent number: 10232964
    Abstract: A manual binding tool including a mechanism for applying plastic deformation to a tie portion located in a head portion to forcibly cause tie portions to engage with each other. A manual binding tool has a tie holding portion that receives and supports a head portion, a tightening mechanism that pulls a projection tie portion that projects through the head portion, a return preventing mechanism that blocks a return movement of the projection tie portion with respect to the head portion that is supported by the tie holding portion, and a pushing mechanism that, in a state where the head portion is supported by the tie holding portion, pushes and deforms a passed tie portion located in the head portion, and that causes the deformed portion to be engaged into an engagement hole of a root tie portion on which the head portion is previously surroundingly held.

  • Publication number: 20070272807
    Abstract: The invention provides a part mounting clamp in which an engaging piece is reliably and sufficiently engaged with a mounting hole peripheral portion by conventional general inserting operation even under a condition where a burr exists on a mounting hole of an attaching subject, and excellent attached state can be obtained. To this end, in an insertion-engagement type attaching clamp, the engaging step 9 includes a vertical wall 9t abutting against an inner peripheral surface 3n of the mounting hole 3 of the sheet metal panel 2, and a lateral wall 9y extending along an outer surface 2A of the mounting hole peripheral portion 2a of the sheet metal panel 2. The engaging step 9 is formed such that in an attached state, a contained angle between the lateral wall 9y and the outer surface 2A becomes 5°.
