Description

Cable Tie {CABLE TIE}

The present invention relates to a cable tie, and more particularly, to a cable tie capable of inserting the other end of a cable tie band in a horizontal direction (longitudinal direction) or a vertical direction (vertical direction) To a cable tie that can be improved.

In the modern society, demand for signal transmission and power supply cables is increasing due to the development of communication and electronic industries. These various types of cables are generally installed together with a large number of cables, rather than a single cable, and such a large amount of cables needs to be bundled appropriately for the surrounding clearance.

There are various methods for binding such a large amount of cables. Among them, cable ties are widely used.

In the case of such a cable tie, generally, a head portion is provided at one end of a band, and the other end of the band is inserted and fixed in a hole formed in the head portion, .

Such conventional cable ties will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 is a cross-sectional view of a main portion showing a conventional cable tie.

Referring to FIG. 1, a cable tie according to the related art includes a band 2 surrounding a cable 1, teeth 3 arranged in multiple rows on one side of the band 2, And an engaging jaw 5 provided at one end of the head 4 to selectively engage with the teeth 3. [

Accordingly, when the cable ties are bundled, after the band is wrapped around the cable, the end portion is inserted through the hole of the head portion and pulled, thereby completing the bundling operation of the cable.

However, in the conventional cable tie, it is possible to perform a function for bundling or fixing a plurality of bundles, but when used in the home, it is difficult to expect harmony with the surrounding environment.

That is, if the band is protruded through the head for a long time, the appearance may be deteriorated. Of course, in order to solve this problem, the operator may cut the protruding portion, but such a cutting operation is inconvenient to use a cutting tool such as scissors. In addition, there is a possibility that an operator or the like may be injured by the protruded cable tie, and since the tie direction of the cable tie is unidirectional, it is impossible to change the tie direction depending on the situation.

Recently, a technique for solving the problem of protruding an end of a cable tie bound to a cable has been developed.

Specifically, the band portion is extended from one side of the cable tie, for example, a side of the body of the cable tie, and the other end portion is installed in parallel with the band portion extending from the body after being inserted into the body, Is disclosed in Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0410932.

However, since the width of the assembly hole and the band portion of the cable tie is very narrow, it is difficult to connect the band portion to the body, and it is difficult to grip the cable tie.

In addition, since the above-mentioned cable tie can be fastened only in a predetermined direction of the body during the fastening operation, it is difficult to actively cope with the fastening of the band depending on the thickness of the cable assembly, There is a problem that a safety accident may occur during the process of inserting the band portion into the body.

In addition, an insertion portion 120 may be provided at the other end of the band 100. The insertion portion 120 extends from the other end of the band 100 and extends in a direction inclined from the band 120 toward the distal end of the insertion portion 120. This insertion portion 120 extends in a direction So that they can be easily inserted into the assembly holes 210 and 220.

2 to 5, a cable tie according to the present invention includes a head 200.

The head 200 is provided at one end of the band 100 so that the other end of the band 100 can be inserted to bundle the plurality of cables into a single bundle. The head 200 includes a head body 205, A vertical direction assembling hole 220, at least one first stopping jaw 230, and at least one second stopping jaw 240.

Specifically, the head body 205 provides an external shape of the head 200, and is connected to one end of the band 100. The head body 205 may be formed to have, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the vertex portion may be curved so as to prevent damage to the user's skin.

The horizontal direction assembly hole 210 is formed in the front and rear direction of the head body 205 so that the other end of the band 100 can be inserted in the front and back direction of the head body 205, To allow the other end of the band 100 to pass through the head body 205 in the forward and backward directions.

For this purpose, the assembly hole 210 in the horizontal direction (longitudinal direction) is formed to have a cross-sectional area corresponding to the cross-sectional area (width and thickness) of the band 100. More specifically, the horizontal length of the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 is formed to be equal to or longer than the width of the band 100, and the vertical length of the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 is less than the thickness of the band 100 As shown in FIG.

For example, when the band 100 is formed to have a width of 10 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, the horizontal length of the assembly hole 210 may be 10 mm and the vertical length may be less than 3 mm.

At this time, since the vertical length of the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 is formed to be shorter than the thickness of the band 100, the teeth 110 of the band 100 are stably fastened to the first hook 230, .

In this case, when the band 100 is to move to the rear surface of the head main body 205, the teeth 110 of the band 100 are in contact with the right side of the first hook 230, Is limited.

The first stopping jaw 230 is inserted through the front surface of the head main body 205 and then passes through the assembly hole 210 in the horizontal direction The other end of the band 100 inserted through the rear surface of the head body 205 is assembled in the horizontal direction so that the other end of the band 100 is not moved back to the front surface of the head main body 205, The teeth 110 of the band 100 are bound so as not to pass through the holes 210.

The second hooking jaw 240 has a hooking angle formed in one of a lower surface and an upper surface of the head body 205 so that the band 100 inserted in one direction of the lower surface or the upper surface of the head body 205 is engaged And one or more head main bodies 205 are provided along the vertical direction assembly holes 220. More specifically, the second latching jaw 240 forms a hypotenuse in one direction on the lower surface or the upper surface of the head main body 205, and forms a right angle side on the opposite side. In other words, the second stopping jaw 240 may be formed in a triangular prism shape.

7 to 9, when the latching angle is formed in the direction of the upper surface of the head main body 205, the second latching jaw 240 is inserted through the lower surface of the head main body 205, The other end of the band 100 that has passed through the hole 220 is bound to the teeth 110 of the band 100 so that the other end of the band 100 is not moved to the lower surface of the head body 205, The teeth 110 of the band 100 are bound so that the other end of the band 100 can not pass through the vertical direction assembly hole 220.

The second hooking jaw 240 is inserted into the band body 100 through the vertical assembly hole 220 after being inserted through the upper surface of the head body 205 when the hooking angle is formed in the bottom direction of the head body 205, The other end of the band 100 inserted through the lower surface of the head 200 is connected to the vertically assembled hole 100 of the head 100, (110) of the band (100) so as not to pass through the band (220).

The first and second stopping jaws 230 and 240 may be formed at regular intervals in the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 and the vertical direction assembly hole 220, It is preferable to be provided only in one of the four zones divided by the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 and the vertical direction assembly hole 220 as shown in FIG.

If necessary, the head 200 according to the present invention may be provided with a buffer block 250 having a cantilever structure inside the head body 205. At this time, it is preferable that the buffer block 250 is provided with a first latching jaw 230 and a second latching jaw 240 together as shown in FIG. This is because when the other end of the band 100 is inserted into the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 or the vertical direction assembly hole 220, So that the band 100 having the length can secure the extended travel path by the buffering action of the buffer block 250. [

9, since the voids are formed between the buffer block 250 and the head body 205, it is possible to prevent the band (or the like) from being formed in the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 or the vertical direction assembly hole 220 100 is inserted, a part of the buffer block 250 is pushed in the direction of the empty space, thereby providing an effect of temporarily increasing the cross-sectional area of the horizontal direction assembly hole 210 or the vertical direction assembly hole 220.

Therefore, when the band first passes through the assembly hole, it is possible to smoothly pass the band, thereby improving the ease of operation.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. It can be understood that it is possible.
