Abstract

The invention discloses a safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force, which relates to the technical field of the tensioner, including a handle component, a base component and a long webbing; the handle component includes handles and ratchet wheels, and the base component includes a base, handles being pivotally and rotatably connected with the base through spiral spring shaft; one end of the spiral spring shaft is equipped with a centrifugal braking component, which includes a brake disc, a brake cover, brake pawls, and return pressure springs; the invention is reasonably designed, and is equipped with brake function to avoid swing of long webbing and injuring the operator, safeguarding safety of the operator; meanwhile, it's also equipped with handle limiting function, which has significantly improved smoothness and service life of using the tensioning device, with excellent practicability.

Claims (8)

1 . A safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force, including a handle ( 4 ) component ( 1 ), a base ( 6 ) component ( 2 ) and a long webbing ( 3 ); the handle ( 4 ) component ( 1 ) includes handles ( 4 ) and ratchet wheels ( 5 ), and the base ( 6 ) component ( 2 ) includes a base ( 6 ), the handles ( 4 ) being pivotally and rotatably connected with the base ( 6 ) through a spiral spring shaft ( 7 ); said ratchet wheels ( 5 ) are fixedly mounted on two ends of the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ), and a reel ( 8 ) is provided between the ratchet wheels ( 5 ); the ratchet wheels ( 5 ), the reel ( 8 ), and the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) rotate synchronously, wherein said reel ( 8 ) is sleeved on an outside of the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) and they are arranged coaxially; one side of the reel ( 8 ) is provided with an opening for the long webbing ( 3 ) to pass through, one end of the long webbing ( 3 ) is sleeved on the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) and leads out from one end of the base ( 6 ) through the opening on the reel ( 8 ), and one end of the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) is connected to a spiral spring box ( 9 ), which is characterized in that the other end of the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) is equipped with an inertia brake component ( 27 );

said inertia brake component ( 27 ) comprises an inertia brake disc ( 28 ), an eccentric brake pawl ( 29 ) and an inertia brake cover ( 30 ); said inertia brake disc ( 28 ) is fixedly connected to the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ) and rotating synchronously with the spiral spring shaft ( 7 ); a middle part of the inertia brake disc ( 28 ) is provided with a C-shaped brake rod ( 31 ) with a C-shaped cross-section; a hole is provided in a center of said eccentric brake pawl ( 29 ), and a linkage groove ( 32 ) and a brake groove ( 33 ) is provided in the hole; a diagonal transition segment ( 38 ) is provided between the linkage groove ( 32 ) and the brake groove ( 33 ); said eccentric brake pawl ( 29 ) is eccentrically sleeved on the C-shaped brake rod ( 31 ), and brake outer teeth ( 34 ) are provided on its outer surface away from the brake groove ( 33 ); said inertia brake cover ( 30 ) is fixedly mounted on the side of the base ( 6 ), with the inertia brake disc ( 28 ) and the eccentric brake pawl ( 29 ) accommodated in the inertia brake cover ( 30 ); a plurality of consecutive and circumferentially distributed brake internal teeth ( 35 ) are provided on a annular inner wall of the inertia brake cover ( 30 ) facing the inertia brake disc ( 28 ).

2 . The safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force of claim 1 , wherein one end of said base ( 6 ) close to the long webbing ( 3 ) is provided with a front cover ( 15 );

said front cover ( 15 ) is reserved with a webbing passage ( 16 ) for the long webbing ( 3 ) to pass through and is provided with symmetrical limiting walls ( 17 ); a bottom of said base ( 6 ) is provided with symmetrical bar-shaped limiting openings ( 18 ), said limiting walls ( 17 ) and said limiting openings ( 18 ) cooperate to limit each handle ( 4 ) so as to avoid the side of each handle ( 4 ) interfering with the ratchet wheels ( 5 ).

3 . The safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force of claim 2 , wherein said long webbing ( 3 ) is connected with a hook ( 19 ); said front cover ( 15 ) is located at one end of the base ( 6 ) with the webbing passage ( 16 ) thereon extending to the other end of the base ( 6 ), tapering inward to secure one end of the hook ( 19 ).

4 . The safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force of claim 3 , wherein an opening of said hook ( 19 ) is provided with a safety mechanism ( 21 ), comprising a return spring ( 22 ) and a safety sleeve ( 23 ), said return spring ( 22 ) being mounted on the hook ( 19 ), and said safety sleeve ( 23 ) being sleeved on the return spring ( 22 ) and elastically sealing off the opening of the hook ( 19 ) under the action of the return spring ( 22 ).

5 . The safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force of claim 1 , wherein said long webbing ( 3 ) forms a C-shaped corner ( 24 ) in the area of the opening of the reel ( 8 ), and a protective portion ( 25 ) is provided on an inner surface of said C-shaped corner ( 24 ); the protective portion ( 25 ) is formed by sewing multi layers of long webbing ( 3 ) ends, or by one or more layers of a protective pad connected to the long webbing ( 3 ) through sewing.

6 . The safely winding webbing and tensioning device controlled by inertia centrifugal force of claim 1 , wherein one end of said base ( 6 ) opposite to the long webbing ( 3 ) is provided with a detachable connecting shaft ( 26 ), said connecting shaft ( 26 ) being connected to one or more kind of short webbing, and hook.
