Tool to tighten or open hose clips; has clamp part with jaws connected by Bowden cable to hand-operated actuating element with clamp stroke locking unit having thrust unit and locking unit

摘要

The tool has a clamp part with two jaws (40,41), which move relative to each other and engage at least one actuating arm of the hose clips. The jaws are connected to the core (38) or sleeve (37) of a Bowden cable (11) leading to a hand-operated actuating element (10). A clamp stroke locking unit is arranged at the actuating element. A thrust unit (20,22) and a locking unit (26-32) are formed on the actuating element, so that several short clamp strokes can be applied to achieve the desired clamp store, without locking steps.
