Hook and method for separating wire harness using the same
A hook comprises a pair of hook bodies, a pair of hook portions, a movable pressing portion, an operating portion and a link unit. The hook bodies are formed of two plates disposed apart from each other, respectively. The hook portions are integrally fixed to lower ends of the hook bodies, respectively. The movable pressing portion is rotatably supported between the hook portions. The operating portion is subject to a tension load of a hoist. The link unit has one end rotatably connected to the movable pressing portion and another end rotatably connected to the operating portion. When the operating portion is pulled upward, the movable pressing portion presses a wire harness, which is hooked to the hook portion, against the hook portion.
1. A hook, comprising:
a hook body;
a hook portion integrally fixed to a lower end of the hook body;
a movable pressing portion rotatably supported to an upper end of the hook portion;
an operating portion;
a guide means for guiding the operating portion along a longitudinal direction of the hook body;
a link unit having a first end rotatably connected to the movable pressing portion and a second end rotatably connected to the operating portion; and
a biasing means having one end attached to the guide means and another end attached to the hook body,
wherein when the operating portion is pulled upward, the movable pressing portion rotates against a biasing force of the biasing means and presses a wire harness, which is hooked to the hook portion, against the hook portion.
2. The hook according to claim 1 , wherein the hook portion includes a plurality of hook portions disposed apart from one another, and
wherein the movable pressing portion includes a plurality of the movable pressing portions, each of the movable pressing portions being disposed between adjacent hook portions.
3. The hook according to claim 1 , wherein the hook portion has an uneven surface which contacts the wire harness.
4. The hook according to claim 1 , wherein the movable pressing portion has an uneven surface which contacts the wire harness.
5. The hook according to claim 1 , wherein the guide means has a guide groove formed on the hook body along the longitudinal direction of the hook body, and a guide pin guided by the guide groove and provided in a protruding condition to a lower end of the operating portion.
6. The hook according to claim 5 , wherein the link unit has the first end rotatably connected to the movable pressing portion via a pin and the second end rotatably connected to the operating portion via the guide pin.
7. A hook, comprising:
a hook body;
a hook portion integrally fixed to a lower end of the hook body;
a movable pressing portion rotatably supported to an upper end of the hook portion;
an operating portion;
a biasing means having one end attached to the movable pressing portion and another end attached to the hook body; and
a link unit having a first link member and a second link member,
wherein when the operating portion is pulled upward, the movable pressing portion rotates against a biasing force of the biasing means and presses a wire harness, which is hooked to the hook portion, against the hook portion.
8. The hook according to claim 7 , wherein the first link member includes a first end rotatably connected to the operating portion, a second end rotatably connected to the second link member, and a central portion rotatably supported by the hook body, and
wherein the second link member includes a first end rotatably connected to the second end of the first link member, and a second end rotatably connected to the movable pressing portion.
9. The hook according to claim 8 , wherein the first end of the first link member is rotatably connected to the operating portion via a first pin, the second end of the first link member is rotatably connected to the second link member via a second pin, and the central portion of the first link member is rotatably supported by the hook body via a support pin, and
wherein the first end of the second link member is rotatably connected to the first link member via the second pin, and the second end of the second link member is rotatably connected to the movable pressing portion via a third pin.
10. The hook according to claim 7 , wherein the first link member is formed of a substantially triangular shape, and the second link member is formed of a substantially straight elongated-shape.
11. The hook according to claim 7 , wherein the hook portion has an uneven surface which contacts the wire harness.
12. The hook according to claim 7 , wherein the movable pressing portion has an uneven surface which contacts the wire harness.
