Abstract
An insulation-stripping tool designed as a hand tool for stripping insulation from a cable has a first insulation-stripping cutter for stripping the insulation transversely to a longitudinal direction of the cable and a second insulation-stripping cutter for stripping the insulation in the longitudinal direction of the cable.
Claims16
1-16. (canceled)
17:
- An insulation-stripping tool designed as a hand tool for stripping insulation from a cable, comprising:
- a first insulation-stripping cutter configured for stripping the insulation transversely to a longitudinal direction of the cable, and
- a second insulation-stripping cutter configured for stripping the insulation in the longitudinal direction of the cable,
- wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is mounted a pivoting body for pivoting movement about a pivot axis between a cutting engagement position and a release position,
- wherein the second insulation-stripping cutter is formed on the same pivoting body and is pivotable about the same pivot axis as the first insulation stripping cutter,
- wherein the second insulation-stripping cutter is offset circumferentially to the first insulation-stripping cutter of the pivoting body in such a manner that the pivoting of the pivoting body by about 90 degrees brings about a change of the first insulation-stripping cutter into the release position and a change of the second insulation-stripping cutter from a release position into a cutting engagement position.

18:
- An insulation-stripping tool designed as a hand tool for stripping insulation from a cable, comprising:
- a first insulation-stripping cutter configured for stripping the insulation transversely to a longitudinal direction of the cable, and
- a second insulation-stripping cutter configured for stripping the insulation in the longitudinal direction of the cable,
- wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is pivotably mounted for movement between a cutting engagement position and a release position, and
- wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is movable between the cutting engagement position and the release position merely by action via a pulling movement on the cable or on the insulation-stripping cutter itself.
2 more elements
19:
- A method for stripping insulation from a cable using an insulation-stripping tool configured as a hand tool, wherein the insulation-stripping tool comprises a first insulation-stripping cutter and a second insulation-stripping cutter, comprising:
- bringing the first insulation-stripping cutter into engagement with insulation of the cable in a closed position of the hand tool,
- stripping the insulation in a circumferential direction by turning the cable about its longitudinal axis,
- and pulling on the cable while maintaining the closed position of the hand tool to obtain pivoting displacement of the first insulation-stripping cutter into a release position while pivoting the second insulation-stripping cutter into a cutting engagement position.
1 more element
20:
- A cutting part for an insulation-stripping tool designed as a hand tool for stripping insulation from a cable transversely to its cable longitudinal direction and also for stripping the insulation in the cable longitudinal direction, comprising;
- a first insulation-stripping cutter and a second insulation-stripping cutter,
- wherein the first and second insulation-stripping cutters are formed on one pivoting body pivotable about a pivot axis or wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is fastened to a first pivoting body while the second insulation-stripping cutter is formed on a second pivoting body and the two pivoting bodies are motion-coupled via a rigid connection so that each pivoting movement of the one pivoting body results in a corresponding pivoting movement of the other pivoting body,
- wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is configured for a cut in the direction of the pivot axis and the second insulation-stripping cutter is configured for a cut transversely to the pivot axis and wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is movable merely by action on the insulation-stripping cutter itself between the cutting engagement position and the release position, wherein this action can be performed merely via a pulling movement on the cable.
1 more element
21:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein the pivot axis (y) of the first insulation-stripping cutter runs transversely to the longitudinal direction (l) of the cable.
22:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein the pivot axis of the first insulation-stripping cutter does not intersect the cable.
23:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is movable between the cutting engagement position and the release position by action on the insulation-stripping cutter itself.
24:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter has an arcuate course for covering a circumferential partial area of the cable.
25:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 18, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter and second insulation-stripping cutter are pivotable about different pivot axes.
26:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 18, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter and second insulation-stripping cutter are pivotable about the same pivot axis.
27:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 18, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter and second insulation-stripping cutter are formed on one pivoting body.
28:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 18, wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter and second insulation-stripping cutter are offset in a circumferential direction.
29:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein the tool has a pliers-like configuration with pliers legs and wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is formed on working areas of both pliers legs.
30:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 17, wherein two hollow-body partial shells are provided, which are arranged pivotably about a common pivot axis, and wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter is formed on one of the hollow-body partial shells.
31:
- The insulation-stripping tool according to claim 30, wherein the hollow-body partial shells form a receiving cavity for the cable and wherein the first insulation-stripping cutter and the second insulation-stripping cutter are arranged so as to be assigned to the same receiving cavity.
