Abstract
The sheathing-removing tool for removing insulation from a single or multiconductor cable comprises two jaws, which are hingedly connected with each other at common pivot axles foldable to form a hollow body for receiving the cable and which have cutting edges adjacent one end of the jaws for making a circular cut and a longitudinal incision. A section knife for removal of insulation from the individual conductors is located in the vicinity of the cutting edges for the circular cut on the long edges of the opposing jaws which press on each other when the jaws are closed. A slitting knife for making a longitudinal incision is located at the other end of the jaws opposite the cutting edges.
Claims7
In a sheathing-removing tool for cutting sheathing from a single or multiconductor cable having at least one insulated cable conductor and for removing the insulation from said at least one cable conductor comprising two jaws, which are connected with each other by two common pivot axles foldable in a hollow body for receiving said single or multiconductor cable and which have a plurality of cutting edges adjacent one end of said jaws for making a circular cut in said sheathing and a slitting blade adjacent the other end of said jaws for making a longitudinal incision in said sheating, said jaws having mutually-opposing long edges parallel to said pivot axles, the improvement wherein a cross sectional cutting device for removal of said insulation from said at least one cable conductor is located on said long edges of said jaws adjacent said cutting edges for said circular cut.
