Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5344707
Kind Code:
Y2
Abstract:
A manually operable tool for cutting cables and the like has first and second crossed levers formed with co-operating cutting jaws. A handle pivotable on the first lever has a spring biassed plunger mounted within it which bears against a toothed fulcrum member integral with the second lever. Closure of the jaws is effected by a ratchet action on pivoting the handle; the plunger drives the jaws together during the forward stoke and a retaining pawl locks the jaws in their relative positions during the return stroke. Means are included to effect simultaneous release of the plunger and the retaining pawl from the toothed fulcrum member to enable rapid opening or closure of the jaws.
