Securing tool
11904442 · 2024-02-20 ·

A securing tool and methods for its use are described herein. In various embodiments, the securing tool may include a handle and one or more prying members positioned at a first end of the securing tool opposite the handle. The prying member(s) may be shaped to engage a release of a self-tensioned hose clamp to cause the handle to be manipulable to spring the self-tensioned hose clamp. The securing tool may include first and second sensors configured to provide first and second signals, respectively, that are indicative of sensed occurrence of first and second events after the handle is manipulated to spring the self-tensioned hose clamp. In various embodiments, if the first and second signals satisfy a criterion, the hose clamp may be deemed to have been properly installed onto a hose or other conduit.

SPRING CLAMP WITH TENSION RETAINING CLIP

A device having a tension retaining clip for use with an annular belt or hose clamping device having radially extending ends. The retaining clip may be used, for example, for compressive emplacement of the annular belt or clamp used to secure a hose. The retaining clip may further include an extraction ring. The radially extending ends of the annular belt may each include first portions extending in radial directions from the belt, and second portions extending perpendicularly from the first portions. The retaining clip may receive and retain the second portions of the extending ends of the annular belt within a retaining cutout, which extends between a free end of the retaining portion and a retaining side surface proximal to the extraction ring. In the retained position, the annular belt may thereby have maximum expanded diameter, due to compression of the extending ends within the cutout relative to one another. The annular belt may be compressed to a smaller diameter by disengaging the tension retaining clip from the extending ends of the annular belt. The cutout may have a cutout surface that extends between the free end of the retaining cutout and the retaining side surface, such that two corners of the cutout are defined thereby. The spring clamp may be disengaged from the annular belt by pulling the extraction ring portion so as to leverably pivot the retaining clip via the retaining clip's extending free end, which may extend toward and contact the annular belt during levered pivoting.

Powered banding device and related methods

A powered banding device includes a housing and a plurality of gripping rollers within the housing that are configured to pull a tail end of a band through a feed slot as the gripping rollers rotate. The device also includes torque circuitry coupled to an electric motor driving the plurality of gripping rollers, which the torque circuitry is configured to calculate a torque on the band using a motor current to determine when to stop pulling. A roller pin is configured to move through a roller slot after the electric motor stops pulling to form a fold in the band as the roller pin moves to an end of a downward curved portion of the roller slot. A cutter blade behind the roller pin follows the roller pin and cuts the band above the roller pin and flattens a cut end over a buckle of the band.
