Claims
- 1. Tool comprising a force-producing device having at least one inflatable thrust producing member displaceable so as to apply a given force, a pivotally displaceable member engageable by said inflatable thrust producing member and pivotally displaceable thereby and a member on which said pivotally displaceable member is pivotally mounted on an axis about which the displaceable member pivots, and wherein said pivotally displaceable member is a lever handle movable relative to another member and forming tongs, and wherein said other member is another lever handle, with said inflatable thrust producing member being disposed between both said lever handles, and including resilient means connected to said lever handles for restoring the tongs to their initial open position.
- 2. Tool according to claim 1 wherein said tongs are pincer-formed.
- 3. Tool according to claim 1 wherein said inflatable member comprises a hose having pressure-tightly closed ends.
- 4. Tool according to claim 3 wherein said hose ends are closed by a cap respectively extending over said hose ends and by a respective corresponding elastic body received in the interior of said hose, said cap having a crimp therein form-locking both said cap and said elestic body with said hose.
