The invention relates to an improved automatic holding device, in particularly, to a simple device to perform gripping, releasing and predetermined tasks.
Conventional remote control gripping apparatus has a mechanism for gripping explosives as used by bomb disposal team of police department; it has an open-and-close hook at the leading end of rod-shaped long arm, and control device provide at the distal end; the control device connect hook with rope or signal wire inside the rod for control open-close motion of the hook in order to hold said desired object (such as explosives etc.); however, the major parts of above remote control gripping apparatus are binding together as a whole and non-collapsible when use; this is extremely inconvenient for handling while it is not in use, and substantial modifications is therefore necessary.
In view of above disadvantages of the conventional remote control gripping apparatus, inventor envisages those disadvantages and engages in solving those problems as to create the present invention.
The object of this present invention is to provide an improved automatic holding device, it consists essentially an inner base, a threaded sleeve and a two-hook gripper; wherein said inner base having a near inverted-U shape cross section, a center bolt at its topside, and a transverse tapped bore at corners of the inner base at both sides of the center bolt; said threaded sleeve is associated with the center bolt of the inner base, the outer surface of upper portion of the threaded sleeve has external thread, and the lower portion of the threaded sleeve is a gradually downward enlarged cone portion, and the middle part of two-hook gripper has a transversal axle hole for insertion of a pivot bolt into the transverse tapped bore of the inner base, while provides a bevel opposed to recess of the upper two-hook gripper for contact with the cone of threaded sleeve, it also provides a hook opposed to the inner side of lower two-hook gripper; at operation, a remote operating lever which has a screw tapped bore mated with said threaded sleeve may axially slide and reach at the [[end]] top surface of said two-hook gripper, and pushing or retracting of the remote operation lever at the top surface of said two-hook gripper will cuase hooks of two-hook gripper pivotally rotate and change corresponding position on both sidewalls of the inner base to perform a grip or release action of desired object.
The main object of the present invention is to provide a detachable operation with a remote operating lever for use in various applications.
Another object of the present invention of an improved automatic holding device is to utilize a remote operating lever to carry out forward and reverse turning and control the hooks of two-hook gripper for ease and efficiency of the operation.
The above and other detail structure, applications, features and other advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
From above description, the improved automatic holding device substantially provides characteristics of simple operation and steady holding, thus meet the requirement of applicability, novelty and inventiveness in the industry.
Accordingly, the preferred embodiments abovementioned are intended to illustrate and not limit the scope of the invention. All equivalents and modifications according to the appended claims are within the scope of the present invention.
