Strap fastener set
View Patent ↗A strap fastener set, capable of providing a reading of a tensile force exerted thereon, includes a strap fastener for winding a first strap and a gauge provided between the strap fastener and a second strap. The gauge includes a cylinder tied with the second strap. The cylinder includes a window defined therein and a scale provided thereon along the window. A first ring is secured to the cylinder. A spring is put in the cylinder. A rod extends past the ring through the spring for connection with the strap fastener. A second ring is secured to the rod so that it is moved relative to the cylinder so as to compress the spring against the first ring when a tensile force is exerted on the straps. The second ring includes an indicator formed thereon for cooperation with the scale so as to provide a reading of the tensile force.
1. A strap fastener set including a strap fastener for winding a first strap and a gauge provided between the strap fastener and a second strap, wherein the gauge includes:
a cylinder tied with the second strap, the cylinder including a window defined therein and a scale provided thereon along the window;
a first ring secured to the cylinder;
a spring in the cylinder;
a rod extending past the first ring through the spring for connection with the strap fastener;
a second ring secured to the rod so that it is moved relative to the cylinder so as to compress the spring against the first ring as a tensile force is exerted on the straps, the second ring including an indicator formed thereon for cooperation with the scale in order to provide a reading of the tensile force; and
a joint for connecting the rod with the strap fastener, wherein the joint includes a middle section pivotally connected with the rod and two terminal sections pivotally connected with the strap fastener.
2. The strap fastener set according to claim 1 wherein the first ring is integrally formed on an internal side of the cylinder.
3. The strap fastener set according to claim 1 wherein the second ring is integrally formed on the rod.
4. The strap fastener set according to claim 1 including a third ring secured to the cylinder for connection with the second strap.
5. The strap fastener set according to claim 1 wherein the straps are integrated with each other.
6. The strap fastener set according to claim 1 wherein the strap fastener includes base, a reel pivotally put on the base, a lever pivotally installed on the reel, two ratchet wheels secured to the reel, a first detent movably installed on the base for engagement with the ratchet wheels and a second detent movably installed on the lever for engagement with the ratchet wheels, and the lever can be pivoted relative to the base so as to provide a one-way rotation of the reel via cooperation of the detents with the ratchet wheels.
7. A strap fastener set including a strap fastener for winding a first strap and a gauge provided between the strap fastener and a second strap, wherein the gauge includes:
a cylinder tied with the second strap, the cylinder including a window defined therein and a scale provided thereon along the window;
a first ring secured to the cylinder;
a spring in the cylinder;
a rod extending past the first ring through the spring for connection with the strap fastener;
a second ring secured to the rod so that it is moved relative to the cylinder so as to compress the spring against the first ring as a tensile force is exerted on the straps, the second ring including an indicator formed thereon for cooperation with the scale in order to provide a reading of the tensile force;
a third ring secured to the cylinder for connection with the second strap; and
a bolt secured to the third ring for connection with the second strap.
8. The strap fastener set according to claim 7 including a joint for connecting the rod with the strap fastener.
9. The strap fastener set according to claim 7 wherein the bolt is integrally formed on to the third ring.
10. The strap fastener set according to claim 7 including a joint for connecting the second strap with the bolt.
11. The strap fastener set according to claim 7 wherein the joint includes a middle section pivotally connected with the bolt and two terminal sections for supporting a pin to which the second strap is tied.
