Abstract

Have a pliers housing (2), two clamping jaws (4, 28) which can be pivoted relative to each other to form a mouth (29) of the pliers, in which mouth two stripping members (51, 59) are arranged such that they can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the mouth by a pull-rod (37), two handles (3, 12), which can be pivoted relative to each other, and a drive device, which is arranged in the pliers housing (2) and can be driven by the pivoting movement of the handles (3, 12) for pivoting the clamping jaws (4, 28) relative to each other and for longitudinal displacement of the pull-rod (37). The drive device has cam discs (18a, 18b) via which both the relative pivoting of the clamping jaws (4, 28) and the longitudinal displacement of the pull-rod (37) can be controlled.
