Definitions

  • Adjustable clamping flange
  • the present invention relates to a clamping flange that allows its length to be adjusted to suit different perimeters of objects, such as pipes or cable bundles. Background of the invention
  • Adjustable clamps or clamps are known for grouping a bundle of cables or tubes and thus facilitating their fixation to a surface, which consist of a piece, usually of plastic material, comprising a serrated strip, a head with a groove and a non-return tab at one of its ends, and a tongue of decreasing section at another end. Its application consists in surrounding the objects to be collected with the flange and inserting the tongue through the head and sliding the strip until the flange is adjusted to the desired length, which is fixed by means of the non-return flange.
  • a variant of these flanges is a strip made of spheres joined by segments and a head with a retainer for said spheres. Typically, these flanges are purchased in bags containing hundreds or thousands of flange units with specific dimensions.
  • the flange has a length greater than the perimeter of the set of cables to be collected and, consequently, the installer cuts the excess end so that the assembly is tidy.
  • the flange has a length less than the perimeter of the set of cables to be collected and, either, the installer uses another batch of flanges of greater length, or splices several flanges in series.
  • the excess material is wasted, as can be seen in any work or renovation, in which it is usual to see the tens and even hundreds of flange ends on the ground, with manufacturing costs and problems of cleaning and recycling that entails. On average, the excess material represents approximately 50% of the length of the flange.
  • the installer is forced to carry out an additional splicing operation that slows his work or he must have several bags with flanges of varying dimensions that adapt to the different situations that he will encounter.
  • the adjustable clamping flange object of the invention which comprises a strip for adjusting the length of said flange and means for fixing the adjustment position of said strip to different perimeters, is characterized by the fact that said means for fixing the adjustment position comprise a plurality of fixing devices of the adjustment position of said strip interspersed and distributed along said strip, allowing adaptation to different perimeters when cutting the strip to Ia desired length
  • the flange object of the invention takes full advantage of the material that it composes since, for each cut or application, the discarded material of the flange is at most the length between two successive fixing devices, which can be adjusted for the perimeters More smalls.
  • the waste of material is limited to half the distance between two successive fixing devices, which can be designed to be as small as possible.
  • the successive fixing devices are spaced apart from each other to fit the smaller perimeters, such as the order of 10 cm.
  • a single flange can be adapted to situations in which cable or tube groupings of perimeters of very different lengths are presented.
  • the thickness of the flange at the level of said devices is equal to the thickness of said strip, whereby a strip that can be easily wound on itself is achieved, allowing its winding in a coil, and thus facilitating its transport and use and preventing the loss of useful material.
  • the width of the strip at the level of said devices is greater than in the rest of the flange, whereby it is guaranteed that the section of material subjected to stress in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction at the level of the fixing device can resist a force similar to the rest of the strip.
  • the strip is serrated
  • the fixing devices comprise a groove with a non-return flange and the strip has portions of smaller section to facilitate the introduction of the strip into the fixing device.
  • the transition edges between said strip and said clamping devices are rounded, whereby stress concentrations at angles are avoided, thereby increasing their tensile strength, allowing the section of the strip to be decreased and, consequently, optimizing The use of material for its manufacture.
  • clamping flanges described in the preceding paragraphs can be arranged in the form of a coil in a dispenser comprising means for cutting them to the desired lengths.
  • the continuous character of the flange is used, providing means for cutting it in situ to the lengths according to the needs of the installation or the work.
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of the clamping flange object of the invention.
  • Figure 2 is an elevational view of the clamping flange object of the invention.
  • Figure 3 is a perspective view of the clamping flange when applied to a set of cables or tubes.
  • Figure 4 is a perspective view of a coil with a rolled clamp flange and the dispenser. Description of a preferred embodiment
  • the flange of the invention comprises a strip (1) to adjust its length and means for fixing its adjustment position to different perimeters composed of a plurality of fixing devices of the adjustment position (2) interspersed and distributed along the strip.
  • the application is carried out as described below:
  • the installer surrounds a set of cables or tubes to be grouped (3) and selects the necessary flange length and cuts the strip by a smaller section point (4) adjacent to the clamping device (2) following the point that determines the necessary length. Proceeding in such a way, a flange with the desired length is achieved, as illustrated in Figure 3, one of its ends being the fixing device (5) and the other one the strip portion of smaller section (4), that is, the insertion tab, the rest of the strip being ready for another application.
  • the distance between two successive clamping devices is small enough to adapt to small perimeters, such as about 10 cm.
  • the thickness (7) of the flange at the level of said devices is equal to the thickness of said strip, so that it can be easily rolled up for transport and handling.
  • the strip (8) is toothed and the fixing devices comprise a slit (9) with an antirtom tab (10), a configuration that allows its optimal application to the concept of the invention.
  • the width of the strip (11) at the level of said devices is greater than in the rest of the flange, ensuring that the section (12) subjected to stress is sufficient to support the weight of the cables or tubes to group.
  • the edges (13) are rounded, avoiding the concentration of stresses which allows manufacturing flanges with a smaller section and, consequently, less material and less costs.
  • the flange is wound in a coil (14), a process facilitated by the fact that its thickness is approximately constant, intended to be arranged in a dispenser (15) which incorporates means (16) to cut the flange to the desired lengths and which incorporates means (17) for fixing to the belt of an installer.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une bride de fixation pourvue de dispositifs de fixation successifs disposés à une certaine distance les uns des autres de manière à pouvoir s'adapter aux périmètres plus petits, les dispositifs de fixation étant situés à 10 cm les uns des autres. Cette bride de fixation réglable comprend une bande permettant d'adapter la longueur de ladite bride et des moyens permettant de fixer la position de réglage de ladite bande pour différents périmètres. L'invention se caractérise par le fait que lesdits moyens permettant de fixer la position de réglage de ladite bande comprennent une pluralité de dispositifs répartis le long de ladite bande, permettant d'adapter la bande à différents périmètres lorsque la bande est coupée à la longueur souhaitée. L'épaisseur de la bride au niveau desdits dispositifs est égale à l'épaisseur de ladite bande et la largeur de la bande au niveau desdits dispositifs est supérieure à celle du reste de la bride. Par ailleurs, la bande est dentée et les dispositifs de fixation comprennent un renfoncement avec une patte anti-retour. La bande comporte des parties possédant une section inférieure, afin de faciliter l'introduction de la bande dans le dispositif de fixation. Les éléments de transition entre ladite bande et lesdits dispositifs de fixation sont arrondis.
