Disclosed is a cable tie including a tie band which is formed in a shape of a strap to bind cables, and is provided with a plurality of serrated grooves continuously formed on a one surface thereof in a longitudinal direction, and a tie holder which is connected to one end of the tie band and includes a tie band passage, through which the other end of the tie band passes, and a serrated locking protrusion formed on an inner surface of the tie band passage and interference-latched to the serrated grooves. The tie band is provided with a cut guide groove formed on one or both widthwise edges thereof, so that a free end of the tie band remaining when the tie band binds the cables together is cut off by a rotating force generated when the free end is twisted, without using a cutting tool.
1. A cable tie comprising:
a tie band which is provided with a plurality of serrated grooves continuously formed on a one surface thereof in a longitudinal direction to bind cables, and
a tie holder which is connected to one end of the tie band and includes a tie band passage, through which the other end of the tie band passes, and a serrated locking protrusion formed on an inner surface of the tie band passage and interference-latched to the serrated grooves,
wherein the tie band is provided with a cut guide groove formed on both widthwise edges thereof,
wherein the cut guide groove has a first grooved slope surface and a second grooved slope surface which are recessed in such a way that a width of the tie band is gradually decreased from the widthwise edges of the tie band to an inside, and a plurality of cut guide grooves are formed at regular intervals along the longitudinal direction of the tie band,
wherein the cable tie further comprises an auxiliary latching member to separately bind the cables by two bundles, with the tie holder being interposed between cable bundles,
wherein the auxiliary latching member includes a first auxiliary passage which upwardly guides the tie band entering an entrance of the tie band passage and has a first guide locking protrusion to be interface-engaged with the serrated grooves, and
a second auxiliary passage which is formed at an exit of the tie band passage to guide the tie band passim, the first auxiliary passage to the exit of the tie band passage and having a second guide locking protrusion to be interface-engaged with the serrated grooves,
wherein arc curved portions are formed between the cut guide groove and the widthwise edges.
