Abstract
A cable tie tensioning and severing tool includes: a cutting member, a pulling member with a pivotable pushing block abutting against the cutting member, a trigger with a stop block abutting against the pushing block, a pivotable pressing hammer, a turning knob, and an elastic member compressed between the pressing hammer and a spirally ramped end face of the turning knob such that the pressing hammer applies to the cutting member a pressing force whose magnitude can be adjusted by rotating the turning knob. The stop block can be driven by the trigger to push the pushing block, which in turn pulls a cable tie through the pulling member and, once the pressing force is overcome, pivots the cutting member to sever the cable tie.
