Abstract

A crimp tool having jaw members joined in a tongue-in-groove connection held in place by a locking pin. Each jaw member is tapered and includes weight reducing pockets defined in respective sidewalls.Each jaw member includes a locking tab on an outside edge that mates with a respective locking tab opening in the neck of the tool. When the locking pin is removed, the jaws of the tool separate androtate away from one another until their respective locking tabs engage their respective locking tab opening, thereby holding the opened jaws in the neck of the tool.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 330,598, filed May 2, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to mating jaws and hydraulic tools having mating jaws. More specifically, the present invention relates to hydraulic hand-held crimping tools and jaw heads for crimping tools. Background technique [0004] Hand held hydraulic tools are well known in the art. These tools use mating jaws that are hydraulically pressed together with great force to crimp the material. These tools can be battery powered to allow user mobility and portability. These tools typically employ locking pins that hold the jaws together for the crimping operation. The locking pin is removed to remove the jaws. [0005] Typical features, controls and configurations of prior art crimping ...
