Crimping tool

摘要

A crimping tool having a housing. A driving shaft is rotatably mounted within the housing and includes at least one end extending beyond a boundary of the housing. A driven shaft is pivotally and rotatably mounted within the housing and includes at least one end extending beyond a boundary of the housing. A first drive mechanism engages the driven shaft for pivotally moving the driven shaft. A second drive mechanism engages the driving shaft for rotating the driving shaft. The driven shaft is pivotally moveable from an operating closed position wherein the driven and driving shafts extend in a parallel relation and engage each other to provide a rotational force for the crimping tool and an open position wherein the driving and driven shafts are angularly spaced from each other and wherein the driven shaft does not engage the driving shaft.
