Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0774324A2] The pliers have two arms connected by a pivot pin (4) and adjustable in a stepwise manner to open or close the gap (M) between the jaws (5,6). The first arm (2) passes through a dividing slot in the other (3). The pin has limited axial movement in holes (14) in two side walls of the second arm and has diametrically opposed flats (19,20) which allow it to fit between the sides (12) of a slot (11) in the other arm. The slot has rack teeth on each side which engage with teeth (21) on the pin flats and lock the pin rotationally and positionally. To adjust the jaws, the pivot pin is pushed from the head end (15) against the pressure of a leaf spring (23). This moves the pin sideways out of engagement with the slot teeth so that it, together with the arm can be adjusted along the slot.
