Abstract

Disclosed herein is a grip-type locking device for a terminal. The locking device includes a body. Two grips are connected to opposite sides of the body, respectively. An interval adjusting pin adjusts an interval between the two grips, thus locking or releasing the terminal interposed therebetween. A cable is connected at opposite ends thereof to a controller and the terminal, respectively. The cable is securely coupled to the body so that load applied to the cable on the controller is blocked by the body and thus is not transmitted to the cable on the terminal.

Claims

1. A grip-type locking device for a terminal, comprising:

a body;

two grips connected to opposite sides of the body, respectively;

an interval adjusting pin adjusting an interval between the two grips, thus locking or releasing the terminal interposed therebetween; and

a cable connected at opposite ends thereof to a controller and the terminal, respectively,

wherein the cable is securely coupled to the body so that load applied to the cable on the controller is blocked by the body and thus is not transmitted to the cable on the terminal.

2. The grip-type locking device as set forth in claim 1, wherein the cable is an integrated type without having an intermediate connecting portion, and passes through the body to be securely coupled thereto.

3. The grip-type locking device as set forth in claim 1, further comprising:

a fixing block securely coupled to the body;

a coupling block provided on an end of the cable, and securely coupled to a connector holding body, the connector holding body being provided with a first connector that is connected to the terminal; and

an injection-molded part coupled to the cable by injection molding.

4. The grip-type locking device as set forth in claim 1, wherein a concave groove is formed on a central portion of the interval adjusting pin, and

the body is provided with a locking pin, the locking pin being inserted into the body in such a way that an end thereof is disposed on and caught by the concave groove.

5. The grip-type locking device as set forth in claim 2, wherein a concave groove is formed on a central portion of the interval adjusting pin, and

the body is provided with a locking pin, the locking pin being inserted into the body in such a way that an end thereof is disposed on and caught by the concave groove.

6. The grip-type locking device as set forth in claim 3, wherein a concave groove is formed on a central portion of the interval adjusting pin, and

the body is provided with a locking pin, the locking pin being inserted into the body in such a way that an end thereof is disposed on and caught by the concave groove.
