Cable Tie Removal Tool

BACKGROUND
1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a removal tool, and more particularly, to a cable tie removal tool.

2. Description of the Related Art

A cable tie can bundle multiple objects all at once, so it is often used in storage and packaging applications. For example, cable ties can be used to bundle several electrical wires, or network cables, or multiple boxes. Cable ties are usually made of plastic. When removing a cable tie, a blade or a special cable tie removal tool is often used, as shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of a conventional cable tie removal tool.

The main structure of a cable tie 8 includes a band 81 and a head 82. One side of the band 81 has a tooth-like structure. The head 82 is located at one end of the band 81, and the head 82 has a through hole for the band 81, with a ratchet being disposed therein (a one-way gripping structure). Therefore, when bundling wires such as wire 7 with cable tie 8, first the band 81 is wound around the wire 7, and then one end of the band 81 (without head 82) is passed through the through hole of the head 82. When the wire 7 is bundled by the band 81, the ratchet in the through hole can be engaged with the tooth-like structure on the band 81 to prevent the band 81 from loosening, thereby achieving the function of bundling and packaging.

A conventional cable tie removal tool (hereinafter referred to as the removal tool 9) has a structure similar to that of a plier, and has a sharp front end, and cutting edges 91 parallel to the direction of the long axis of the removal tool 9. Therefore, when removing the cable tie 8, the long axis direction of the removal tool 9 must be perpendicular to the band 81, so that the cutting edges 91 can be placed on different sides of the band 81 respectively, thereby allowing the removal tool 9 to cut the band 81. However, the sharp front end of the removal tool 9 could damage the wire 7 or other bundled objects during such an operation, so it is necessary to provide an improved cable tie removal tool.

In this embodiment, the first cutting member 20 and the first jaw 10 are both plates, and the first cutting member 20 and the first jaw 10 have a first included angle formed therebetween. In other words, the first cutting member 20 and the first jaw 10 are plates located at different levels, so that there is an (first) included angle between the first cutting member 20 and the first jaw 10. Preferably, the first jaw 10 and the first cutting member 20 are formed in one piece. For example, the first jaw 10 and the first cutting member 20 are formed by bending a plate, so that the first cutting member 20 is connected to the front end of the first jaw 10, and there is a first included angle between the first cutting member 20 and the first jaw 10. In other words, the first cutting member 20 is formed by extending upward from the front end of the first jaw 10.

Similarly, the second jaw 30 and the second cutting member 40 are both plates, and the second cutting member 40 and the second jaw 30 have a second included angle formed therebetween. That is, the second cutting member 40 and the second jaw 30 are plates located at different levels, so that there is a (second) included angle between the second cutting member 40 and the second jaw 30. Preferably, the first included angle and the second included angle are respectively 90 degrees. In other words, the first cutting member 20 is perpendicular to the first jaw 10, and the second cutting member 40 is perpendicular to the second jaw 30. The second cutting member 40 and the second jaw 30 are formed in one piece. For example, the second jaw 30 and the second cutting member 40 are formed by bending a plate, so that the second cutting member 40 is connected to the front end of the second jaw 30, and there is a second included angle between the second cutting member 40 and the second jaw 30.
