A multi-cable wiring loom (2) is laid out to the required shape on a board that has support elements (3) at selected locations. Each support elements has a U shaped part (5) that raises the wiring loom clear or the board surface. The wires are then tied together by binding that is wrapped around using a two prong tool (9) on a manipulator (11).

Description

The invention relates to a tool for binding an object, in particular a wire harness, by means of a a lock to be closed. The tool points to the Forehead of his tool body, a loop wrench, at least partially from those held movably on the tool body Plier parts are formed, and a lock holder on. Further is a tensioning device for tensioning the in the loop pliers and tape passed through the castle and a control device for opening the loop pliers and tensioning the tape in place.

In known tools of this type (EP 0 428 116, US 4,371,010, US 3,976,108) are the pliers parts with one Articulation point pivotally mounted directly on the tool body, while at another pivot point an actuator attacks via the opening or closing movement is produced. When opening, the pliers parts swivel in an arc so far to the side that an object to be bound is passed through can be. The loop pliers closes around the object to be bound and forms in this state a closed guide for one around the object looping band. In another known binding tool (US-3 810 498) does not need the wrap-around pliers to be completely closed, namely not if there is an oversized object between the pliers and a complete closing of the pliers is not possible; it is accepted that none will be complete closed tour for the band is available. The Band is led around the item in the guide. The Lock for binding the tape can be a separate part or integrally connected to the rear end of the band be. It will be at the end of the wrapping process at the latest picked up by the lock bracket. The leading end of the The tape is then passed through an opening in the lock and captured by the tensioning device. When tensioning, that goes away Tied to the item, with the item attached to the Lock bracket is used or with a fixed object the tool with its lock holder on the object is used. That presupposes that beyond sufficient space for the object from the tool body protruding pliers parts are present. Frequently located however, there is an obstacle beyond the object; this can be a supporting structure in the Cases may be when the tape attaches to the item a fastening eyelet, which in turn with the load-bearing Structure is connected. Then they bump from the tool body protruding pliers against the supporting structure and prevent so that the tool is pulled towards the object can be. Instead, there is a force on the object exercised who wants to pull him to the lock bracket; the disadvantageous consequence can be that the object is moved out of position, causing him or herself Components like the eyelets that hold him in place to keep trying to get damaged. Furthermore, a Binding tool known (US-3,621,889), in which the Lock bracket during the tensioning of the Tool body is moved away, that is to the to be bound Item runs. So there is a danger Damage to components affecting the object to be bound hold in position, diminished, but is there disadvantageous that it can happen that after the binding process the tape does not have the desired tape tension because do not fully approach the lock bracket to the object could. The known tools often make additional elaborate manual work required.

The object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages avoid.

The invention has recognized that binding an object then can be done without any problems if the opened, from Tool body protruding pliers parts at the latest during the Tensioning the tape from beyond the object Area to be removed. The invention makes this possible in that it provides a tool in which the loop pliers before or during tensioning of the strap is opened, and the wrap around a substantial Part of the outreach that they closed has forward, is retractable. In contrast to known tools in which the opening swivel movement the parts of the pliers are limited to an arc that mainly leads to the side and only to a lesser extent backward component is in the inventive Tool a backward movement overlaid with the lateral opening movement or afterwards intended.

The looping pliers are in proportion to their transverse movement withdrawn significantly. This not only achieves that the binding of an object and possibly its simultaneous Always connect with a fixed bracket without any problems is possible; it also enables objects to tie that in close proximity to any Obstacles, such as a supporting structure, without the pliers parts hitting these obstacles. With the tool according to the invention is consequently also a binding possible in a limited space.

That the wrap around a substantial part of the Outreach, which it shows forward when closed, withdrawn preferably means that it is withdrawn at least half of their forward projection is retractable. The projection is from the lock holder starting to measure. Furthermore, it should preferably be around at least a quarter, more preferably by at least that Half of their maximum opening width must be retractable.

The opening movement can begin as soon as the tape is off the Clamping device is detected. In contrast, the withdrawal movement be matched to the opening movement so that the narrowest parts of the pliers - these are generally the pliers tips - sufficiently far around the outline of the object to be bound be led around. This requires a strong one Retraction movement only takes place when the pliers are out opened at least about as wide as the object is wide.

In an advantageous embodiment of the invention the hinged pliers parts each have two articulation points, guided along predetermined paths on the tool body are. By designing the course of the The course of movement of the pliers can be predetermined paths be controlled in the desired manner. An advantageous one Execution option for such a guideway is Arrangement of a pivot point at the end of a handlebar, the other end is pivotally connected to the tool body. This guideway is then designed as an arc. The does not mean that those forming the loop guide Parts of the pliers have to move along an arc, since this also depends on the shape of the other guideway is dependent. This can also be done by one with the tool connected handlebars be formed. In another embodiment it is a sliding guide on the tool body and a cooperating slider, wherein the glider is connected to the second articulation point.

The use of the tool for tapes different Cross-sectional dimensions and lengths can be replaced by the loop pliers make necessary. With known tools this happens because the swivel and drive connections the pliers with the tool body designed releasably become. This is also in the context of the present invention possible. But there is an additional guide connection is provided, it is usually more complicated. The invention therefore provides that not all parts of the pliers are replaced but the parts of the pliers are put together are made of an interchangeable front part and not a interchangeable base part, on which at least partially the Articulation points and the drive connection are arranged.

It may also be useful if the free ends of the Plier parts with a positive connection to one Fastening eyelet are provided, with the fastening eyelet forms part of the loop guide.

This ensures a smooth passage of the loop guide also in the area of the fastening eyelet, so that faults by a band passage inhibited at this point during are not to be feared. Furthermore it is advantageous if the fastening eyelet on their the object facing side has at least one projection the pliers parts when closed on the fastening eyelet are behind. This rules out that Tool in the closed state during the binding process due to an unwanted movement its safe connection loses to the eyelet. For this purpose points at least one of the free ends of the pliers parts is a pair of the fastening eyelet between in the closed state fingers, which are arranged behind the side Grip the projection or the projections. However are also others, on the ends of the pliers and on the fastening eyelet interacting positive locking elements conceivable that the mutual Ensure connection. For example, the Protrusions provided in the eyelet recesses intervention. These recesses of the eyelet can also be made entirely or partly from the through hole in the eyelet be formed for the tape.

This is particularly important if the Fastening eyelet is anchored to a supporting structure. The form-fitting is particularly useful Connection design of the free ends with replaceable front pliers parts; doing so for different Various interchangeable front eyelets Pliers parts with each adapted to the eyelet positive connection can be provided.

If - as just stated - at least one of the free ends of the pliers parts a pair of the fastening eyelet Has fingers, according to another characteristic of Invention the width of the eyelet in different directions so that they are only in that position between the fingers fit in the band opening the loop guide continues in alignment in the pliers parts. To this Purpose is the width of the eyelet measured across to the direction of their band opening a little smaller or at most equal to the clear distance of the fingers while they are measured in the direction parallel to the band opening, larger than that clear distance between the fingers.

It is known to perform binding tools so that the wrapping process is only triggered when the pliers parts their final position closing the loop guide achieved. This feature is particularly useful in Connection with the positive interaction of the pliers ends with the fastening eyelet. When the end position of the pliers parts namely can only be achieved when it interact positively with the fastening eyelet, it is guaranteed that the wrapping process is only correct if Position of the fastening eye in relation to the tool can take place.

To make it easier to attach the tool to the fastening eyelet, can be detachable with a guide device be connected, the guide surfaces leading to the fastening eye for the pliers parts. If to hold one a wiring board to be tied to the wiring harness or the like the guide device should be attached to it be and have a bracket for the eyelet or form. This will not only change the location of the eyelet in relation to the item to be bound fixed, but also ensures that they are accurate located at the location of the location of an anchoring device corresponds to the supporting structure which the item is to be assembled later. It can Precautions should be taken to ensure that the fastening eyelet connected to the holding device only in such a position can be proportionate to their desired orientation corresponds to the guide device and the belt direction. For this purpose, the attachment eyelet forming fastener and the bracket provided form-fitting interacting alignment means provided be.

In addition to or instead of the retractable pliers links can be provided that the lock holder during of clamping moved away from the tool body and towards it binding object runs there. It is convenient to do so the advance of the lock bracket controlled so that the through the lead of the lock holder and the one held in it Lockes the resulting reduction in the size of the sling is smaller than that transported by the tensioning device free tape length. However, the lead of the lock holder can also take place passively, d. that is, the castle and the The lock bracket will move as a result of the tensioning of the band achieved reduction of the band loop without own drive forward. Conveniently, a Only open and pull back the pliers when the leading lock bracket one of the tool body has reached distant position; advantageously only when the lock holder or the lock held by it the object to be bound finds a stop. Possibly. can on the opening and retracting movement of the tong links too be completely dispensed with. An advantage of this embodiment is that the lead of the lock bracket is often from the Drive side is easy to perform, not least off the reason that the kinematics of movement is only one one-dimensional longitudinal movement of the lock holder requires. The fact that the pliers links at least at the beginning of Tool is still closed especially in cases when the ends of the pliers on one Structure or fastener, light and to position exactly.

The tool has a tool body 1 with a pistol-like arranged handle 2, on which there is a release button 3 for starting the binding process. The As is known, the tool contains a drive motor and one Control device for the various tool functions, in particular the movement of the belt pliers and that Tension the tape. On the front end of the total The looping pliers are located on the elongated tool body 4, which are predominantly formed by two pliers parts 5 is, which are movably mounted on the tool body 1. The Wrapping guide can also partially in the area 6 of the tool body or from connected to the tool body Share be formed. Other parts, such as a fastening eyelet 7 (Fig. 5, 11-14) to which the pliers parts 5 connect in the closed state, can participate in education participate in the looping. The leadership will formed by a groove 8 in the pliers parts 5. One from the Forehead of the tool body emerging with the free end ahead Tape is through the groove 8 around the object to be bound and led back to the tool face. There is one Lock bracket 9 provided by the outline of the dashed indicated lock 10 is shown schematically. The lock 10 receives the leading end 11 of the tape. This then goes into a tensioning device, not shown, which tightens around the object to be tied. Here this is used on the lock holder 9 or conversely, the tool with its lock holder on the Object used. This case is indicated in FIGS. 2 and 3. A wire harness 12 to be bound is by any Device 13, which is next to the tool (below the Plane) is a short distance from the wall 14 held so that the wire harness 12 when closed Wrapping pliers 4 are located far from the lock holder 9. The wire harness 12 cannot be harmful from this position Forced to be used on the lock bracket since he is held on the one hand by the device 13 and on the other hand the looping pliers striking the wall 14 4 prevents the tool from approaching the wiring harness. According to the invention it is therefore provided that the wrap-around pliers 4 forming pliers parts 5 before tensioning the band or withdrawn at the latest during tensioning as shown in FIG. 3. The tool body can now approach the wiring harness 12. This applies accordingly in the case shown in Figs. 8 and 9 when the wire harness 12 is arranged on a laying board 42.

If the extent of the withdrawal is so great that the front End of the pliers parts up to the forehead 15 of the lock holder 9 or even resigns, it is for sufficient scope for every application. It is sufficient if they are around their front throat minus the minimum thickness the items to be bound are retractable. The front projection 16 (Fig. 2) is from the forehead 15 of the Lock bracket 9 from to the foremost point of the belt pliers 4 measured.

The degree of retraction of the pliers parts according to the invention can also be related to their opening width. This is useful because with the known tools, their Pliers are guided on circular paths, a relative low withdrawal in relation to the opening movement distance takes place. It depends on the opening width of the Pliers tips open when open. 1 is the Opening width 17 of one of the two pliers parts shown. The entire opening width is twice as large. The withdrawal should be at least a quarter of the total opening width be.

For the retraction, the pliers parts become one of them Opening movement forced additional movement component. This is done in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1 in that each tong part has two articulation points 18, 19, which are guided on predetermined tracks, which on Tool body are fixed. The pivot point is 18 at the end of a handlebar 20 pivotally arranged, the other End at 21 on the tool body 1 is pivotally mounted. The guideway of the articulation point 18 is therefore a Circular arc 22. The other articulation point 19 has a slider on the back and forth in a guide groove 23 is. The opening and closing drive can be conventional Way and, for example, the handlebar 20 with a back and forth swivel drive connected, or the slider 19 is with a back and forth in the longitudinal direction running drive connected. The guideways 22, 23 are matched in shape so that the front End of the pliers parts 5 first moves laterally when opening, to release the object to be bound, and then backwards as it is dash-dotted by a sequence shown functional stages in Fig. 1 for one of the two Plier parts is illustrated.

The guidance can also take place in any other way. So can, for example, both articulation points by handlebars Be circular arc, as is the articulation point 18 in Embodiment is shown. Or are both articulation points guided in sliding guides or the front pivot point 18 guided in a sliding guide and the rear 19 on one Handlebars.

The invention has the advantage that cable ties are bound even then can be localized in front of a wall 14 are set. They can also be tied to eyelets, such as the exemplary embodiments in FIGS. 4 and 5 illustrate this.

So that cable ties of different dimensions are used can be, the pliers parts 5 are made divisible. How 6, they have a rear base part 25, which includes the pivot points 18 and 19. This is with one Joint 26 over releasable connecting means, not shown connected to the front part 27, which is the actual loop guide 4 forms and can be replaced. The Features of claim 7 may deserve protection regardless of the previous claims.

The guideways can have a different shape. One wishes for example, that the lateral movement component of the pliers parts the last movement phase is less than shown, so you can, for example, the guideway 23 indicated by a dash-dotted line 24 in FIG. 1, Give the contour directed towards the outside on the back.

An embodiment of this type is schematic in Fig. 7 shown. The pliers parts 30 are on the tool body 31 held on the one hand by a roller 32 in guide grooves 33. Secondly, they are at articulation point 34 by a handlebar 35 guided around the fixed point on the tool body 31 36 is pivotally mounted. The handlebars 35 are interlocking Tooth segments 37, the teeth of which by partial circles 38 is indicated, connected to symmetrical movement. Of the Drive for the opening movement expediently attacks the pivot shaft of one of the two links 35. In the The pivot points 34 move on the dash-dotted arcs 39 while the roles 32 remain in the guide grooves 33. Left in Fig. 7 are some stages I to III of the opening swing movement by specifying the respective position of the pliers tips and of the rollers 32 indicated. It can be seen that the retreat distance the pliers tips are larger than their sideways Movement distance, d. H. the withdrawal distance is longer than half the opening width.

Fig. 7 shows in front of the lock bracket 40 a block 41, the contains dashed guide grooves for the band, which transfer into the guide grooves 8 of the belt pliers. This block 41 is after threading the leading one End of the band in the lock holder and before or at the beginning of the Tensioning pivoted away so that the lock holder during of the clamping lies in the tool face 15.

Often, the wire harness 12 is not directly on the load-bearing Structure, but is used to prepare for its Mount on the supporting structure in a suitable way bound to a laying board 42 (FIG. 8). On the laying board 42 is a plurality for receiving the wiring harness 12 to be bound attached by brackets 43 which the wiring harness 12 in the him keep predetermined shape. The brackets 43 are how to 9 recognizes U-shaped for receiving the wiring harness 12 in the recess between two legs 44 is formed.

Each bracket has two walls 45, at least one of which but preferably both in the form shown in FIG. 9 designed with two legs 44 for receiving the wiring harness are. They face each other inner surfaces 46 that between enclose a groove 47 which extends towards both ends expanded and narrowest in the middle. Your breadth at the narrowest point is little larger than the width 48 of the free Ends 49 of the pliers parts 5, which are attached to the tool body 1 are. In their open position (Fig. 9) they have an opening width that is greater than the thickness of the wire harness 12, so that they around this in the groove 47 of the bracket 43 can be reduced. They should do a little while standing crooked, as indicated in Fig. 10, so worry the inner surfaces 46 of the walls 45 and the bottom surface 52 of the Channel 47 as guide surfaces for the fact that during the Closing movement, the direction of which is indicated by arrows in FIGS. 9 and 10 is indicated, are brought into their correct end position, which is illustrated in FIG. 11. That way forms the bracket 43 a guide device for the free ends 49 of the pliers parts 5.

In the middle of the holder 43, the fastening eyelet 7 is detachable attached. The fastening eyelet 7 consists of an eyelet part 54 with through opening 55 for receiving the tape and a foot part 56 which faces the eyelet part 54 End is limited by an elastic spring plate 57. The foot part 56 is intended for the final assembly of the wiring harness 12 in a bore of those carrying the wiring harness Structure, for example the wall 14, firmly received become. For this purpose it is provided with all-round holding teeth trained to allow it to be pressed into the hole, but which oppose its removal from it with great resistance. The plate 57 lies on the surface the holding structure and makes the eyelet wobble-free. It it is understood that the shown only as an example Foot can be replaced by any other support structure could.

The holder 43 contains in its bottom surface 52 in the middle the groove 47, where it is narrowest, a bore 60 as a receptacle for the foot 56 of the fastening eyelet. The bore 60 is dimensioned so that the foot of the fastening eyelet is secure in it is kept for assembly purposes, but without essential Force can be extracted from it when the wiring harness is finished. The arrangement of the fastening eyelet in the Bracket 43 allows the free ends 49 of the pliers parts 5 to bring the eyelet so that the guide grooves 8 provided on the inside of the pliers parts are in alignment with the band opening 55. In order to this is guaranteed, care must be taken to ensure that the tape opening 55 extends in the direction of the groove 47 of the holder 43. For this purpose, the foot 56 has the fastening eyelet at least one longitudinal groove 62 and is in the receiving bore 60 of the holder 43 at a corresponding point a projection 63 provided which fits into the groove 62. Shown are two diametrically opposite projections 63 in the receiving bore 60; the foot 56 is also corresponding equipped with two diametrically opposed grooves 62.

The lateral guide surfaces 46 of the holder 43 guarantee that the free ends 49 of the pliers parts 5 between them are correctly centered with respect to the mounting eyelet. This Centering is sufficient in those cases where guaranteed is that the fastening eyelet is only ever used such a bracket or guide device mounted becomes. In order that this may be unnecessary, it is more advantageous a corresponding positive engagement of the free ends 49 of the pliers parts 5 also opposite the fastening eyelet bring about yourself. The free ends run for this purpose 49 of the pliers parts 5 each in a pair of fingers 64 from whose clear distance 65 is approximately the width 66 of the eyelet part 54 transversely to the direction of the band opening 55 or is a little bigger. As a result, the fingers 64 take the eyelet part between and center it. The width 67 of the In contrast, the eyelet is parallel to the direction of the band opening 55 a little larger than the clear width 65 between the Fingers 64. It is therefore impossible to attach the eyelet in in the wrong direction between the fingers 64. The Pliers parts 5 can move if the fastening eyelet is positioned incorrectly 7 do not close. Because the binding process only then can be triggered when they are closed, he can in not happen in this case. The depth 68 of the gap between fingers 64 is about half the width 67. It would also be conceivable, the fingers 64 only on one of the provide two free ends 49 of the pliers parts. Your length would then be about the width 67.

So that the free ends 49 of the pliers parts 5 also in height correctly connect to the eyelet part 54 (see Fig. 12 and 14), is provided on its upper edge with strips 69, the with the plate 57 or another projection of the fastening eye enclose a gap that is about the height the finger 64 of the pliers parts 5 is the same. The positive connection between the pliers ends and the fastening eyelet not only in guaranteed in every lateral direction, but also in the vertical direction therefore that provided in the pliers parts 5 Guide grooves 8, the flanks with the reference numerals 50 and the bottom of which is designated with the reference number 51, correctly connect to the tape opening 55, the limits of which are a little wider than those of the grooves 8, thus the tape even in the event of usual tolerance deviations is passed through without interference.

The example shows the direct form fit between the Tool and the fastening eyelet. If only with help the guide device 43 is mounted, it can be replaced are achieved through an indirect form fit between the tool and the management facility.

The arrangement explained in the example gives one Wiring harness that is connected to the fasteners and which can then be assembled very easily because all that is required is the correctly positioned fasteners into the holding openings of the supporting structure to use.

16a, b show an embodiment of the tool leading lock holder 9 shown. At the beginning of Tensioning the band is the lock holder 9 in its the Tool body 1 next position (Fig. 16a). During the caused by the advance of the free end 11 of the tape Clamping moves the lock 10 and the lock bracket 9th away from the tool body 1 towards the sling (FIG. 16b). The pliers parts 5 are still closed; this has the Advantage that the tool is still during the clamping process is easier to manage, for example through cooperation with a supporting structure or a fastening eyelet.
