BACKGROUND

A clamp pliers with a crimping and shearing function is provided in Patent CN2017219168145, which is able to achieve a crimping and shearing of a clamp, but requires an adjusting of a position of an eccentric shaft (a reference number of which is 4 in the patent document) when switching between the crimping and shearing, which not only is cumbersome in practice (the eccentric shaft should be adjusted every time the function is switched), but also tends to incur mistakes in operation by an unskilled worker.


SUMMARY

In view of the problems discussed above, the invention provides an adjusting-free clamp pliers jaw.


The invention adopts the following technical scheme:


An adjusting-free clamp pliers jaw, which comprises a first pliers body, a second pliers body and a base, both the first and second pliers bodies rotating on the base and the first and second pliers bodies being mirror symmetrical, wherein it further comprises a clamping rim and an extrusion notch, wherein the clamping rim is provided on both the first and second pliers bodies, the extrusion notch is provided on both the first and second pliers bodies, and the clamping rims on the first and second pliers bodies are jointly used for clamping a clamp, and the extrusion notches on the first and second pliers bodies are used for jointly pinching off the clamp.


In this device, the clamping rims and extrusion notches are respectively arranged on the first and second pliers bodies, a clamping of the clamp can be made by the clamping rims on the first and second pliers bodies (which is equivalent to a “crimping” of the clamp described in patent CN2017219168145), an extruding of the clamped clamps can be made by the extrusion notches on the first and second pliers bodies, and the clamped clamps can be pinched off by an extrusion action of the extrusion notches (this process is equivalent to the shearing of the clamp described in patent CN2017219168145). Specifically, the device only provides a pliers jaw, which can only be used after other structures such as pliers handles are installed.


In this scheme, the clamping rims and the extrusion notches are arranged on the first and second pliers bodies, so that a clamping and breaking of the clamp from the extrusion can are realized and both the crimping and shearing functions can be integrated together without a conversion operation, and an operation of this device is simple, convenient and quick.


Optionally, the extrusion notch is an arc-shaped extrusion notch.


Optionally, the base comprises a first bottom plate, a second bottom plate and a bolt assembly, wherein the first bottom plate and the second bottom plate are connected with each other by the bolt assembly, the first bottom plate and the second bottom plate are parallel to each other between which the first and second pliers bodies are positioned, and the first and second pliers bodies are respectively rotatably arranged on screws of the bolt assembly through their own through holes.


Optionally, it also comprises a rotating notch and a center post, wherein the center post is arranged between the first bottom plate and the second bottom plate and perpendicular to the first bottom plate, the rotation notch is arranged on both the first and second pliers bodies, and the rotation notch of the first pliers body and the rotation notch of the second pliers body abut against the central post.


The above design is made to ensure the first and second pliers bodies to be more stable during a rotation.


Optionally, the first bottom plate abuts against the extrusion notches on the first and second pliers bodies.


In the above configuration, it can be ensured that the clamp abuts against the first bottom plate when the clamp is extruded by the extrusion notches, and the first bottom plate will play a certain role in blocking the clamp, thus ensuring that the clamp cannot be extruded away during pinching off.


Optionally, the first bottom plate abuts against the clamping rims on the first and second pliers bodies.


By abutting the first bottom plate against the clamping rims on the first and second pliers bodies, it can be ensured that the clamp doesn't shake during a clamping of the rims and can keep the clamp stable during the clamping.


The invention brings benefits that: the clamping rims and the extrusion notches are arranged on the first and second pliers bodies, so that a clamping and breaking of the clamp from the extrusion can are realized and both the crimping and shearing functions can be integrated together without a conversion operation, and an operation of this device is simple, convenient and quick.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, an adjusting-free clamp pliers jaw includes a first pliers body 1, a second pliers body 2 and a base, in which both the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies rotate on the base and the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies are mirror symmetrical, and it further includes a clamping rim 3 and an extrusion notch 5, in which the clamping rim 3 is provided on both the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies, the extrusion notch 5 is provided on both the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies, and the clamping rims 3 on the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies are jointly used for clamping a clamp, and the extrusion notches 5 on the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies are used for jointly pinching off the clamp.


In this device, the clamping rims 3 and extrusion notches 5 are respectively arranged on the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies, a clamping of the clamp can be made by the clamping rims 3 on the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies (which is equivalent to a “crimping” of the clamp described in patent CN2017219168145), an extruding of the clamped clamps can be made by the extrusion notches 5 on the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies, and the clamped clamps can be pinched off by an extrusion action of the extrusion notches 5 (this process is equivalent to the shearing of the clamp described in patent CN2017219168145). Specifically, the device only provides a pliers jaw, which can only be used after other structures such as pliers handles are installed.


Specifically, during an installation for this device, two holes at a bottom (which is referred to a position relationship in FIG. 1) of the first 1 and second 2 pliers bodies are connected with pliers handles, and an installation structure between the two pliers handles is the same as that shown in patent CN2017219168145.


The extrusion notches are formed by the first and second pliers being recessed inwards respectively, an inner wall of the extrusion notch formed by the first plier near the clamping rims and an inner wall of the extrusion notch formed by the second plier near the clamping rims cooperates to form a shearing part 11 to pinch off or shear the clamp.


An accommodation space 12 is set between the shearing part and the clamping rims.
