Patent number: 9923346Abstract: The invention relates to a stripping tool (1) comprising at least one stripping jaw. A cutting element (10, 11) is exchangeably assembled with the stripping jaw under use of a mounting groove (56, 57). Preferably, mounting and dismounting is performed along mounting axes (58, 59) having an orientation perpendicular to a pivot plane of the pliers jaws (3, 4). The inventive stripping tool (1) comprises an exchange position in which the mounting and dismounting of the cutting elements (10, 11) is possible, in particular through a cutaway (62, 63) of a side wall (64, 65) of the pliers jaws (3, 4). If the exchange position is left a movement of the cutting element (10, 11) is blocked by a securing element (66) formed by the side wall (64, 65) so that a securing of the position of the cutting element (10, 11) is provided.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2015Date of Patent: March 20, 2018Assignee: WEZAG GMBH WERKZEUGFABRIKInventor: Roman Zinser

Patent number: 9912131Abstract: The invention relates to a cable stripping tool (1). A cable stripping unit (5) is built with two cable stripping jaws (6, 7). The cable stripping jaws (6, 7) are pivoted towards each other in a pivot plane (9) during a cutting stroke. During a subsequent cable stripping stroke the cutting jaws (6, 7) are moved along a cable stripping axis (15). A mounting axis (58, 59) has an orientation vertical to the pivot plane (9). A cutting element (10, 11) is detachably mounted along the mounting axis (58, 59) with the cable stripping jaw (6, 7). Outside from an exchange position the cutting element (10, 11) is blocked against the removal along the mounting axis (58, 59). The exchange position is induced by the drive (16) of the cable stripping tool (1). In the exchange position the cutting element (10, 11) is freed with respect to a movement along the mounting axis (58, 59) so that demounting of the cutting element (10, 11) and mounting of a new cutting element (10, 11) is possible.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2015Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: WEZAG GMBH WERKZEUGFABRIKInventor: Roman Zinser

Patent number: 9864948Abstract: The invention relates to hand pliers (1) which are in particular embodied as crimping pliers. According to the invention, the hand pliers (1) comprise a counting device (16) which counts the number passed working strokes (17). The counting device (16) is built with a sensor which senses the distance or displacement of two components moved relatively to each other over the working stroke (17), in particular the distance or displacement of hand levers (2, 3). If the count number registered by the counting device (16) exceeds a threshold value, it is possible to produce a display at a displaying device of the hand pliers (1) which indicates that an exchange of drive elements or an exchange of dies or a certification of the hand pliers is required.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2015Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: WEZAG GMBH WERKZEUGFABRIKInventor: Thomas Glockseisen
