APARATO PARA LIGADURAS DE PLANTAS, EN ESPECIAL VIDES APPLIANCE FOR PLANT LIGAD, IN SPECIAL LIVES
Definición v campo de aplicación Definition v field of application
Nuestro aparato sirve para realizar en forma fácil, repetitiva y sin gran esfuerzo, ligaduras para todo tipo de plantas, en especial aquellas que necesitan un tutor, alambre o cualquier tipo de sostén para crecer en forma efectiva. Fue concebido, en especial, para vides, pero puede ser igual de eficiente para tomates, enredaderas, y cualquier otro tipo de plantas, ya sea de granja o de jardín. Our device is used to easily, repetitively and without great effort, make ligatures for all types of plants, especially those that need a tutor, wire or any type of support to grow effectively. It was conceived, especially, for vines, but it can be just as efficient for tomatoes, vines, and any other type of plants, whether farm or garden.
Génesis v razón de ser En nuestra larga experiencia como viticultores, siempre hemos tenido una necesidad insatisfecha, la cual consiste en un aparato para realizar las infinitas ataduras de las vides a los alambres que las sostienen, las cuales son varias decenas de miles por plantío de unas pocas hectáreas (precisamente 12.000/há) y requieren enorme tiempo, esfuerzo y costo. Genesis v raison d'être In our long experience as wine growers, we have always had an unsatisfied need, which consists of an apparatus to make the endless ties of the vines to the wires that support them, which are several tens of thousands per planting of a few hectares (precisely 12,000 / ha) and require enormous time, effort and cost.
Como siempre nos hemos mantenido en contacto con los inventos y la tecnología de nuestra actividad a lo largo y ancho del mundo, de la cual en este escrito presentaremos un resumen, hemos tenido a nuestra disposición una serie de aparatos que si bien han facilitado la tarea, nos han dejado insatisfechos. Nuestra insatisfacción se ha debido a varios factores, frecuentemente sucediendo todos ellos al mismo tiempo: costo, tamaño, peso, complejidad, dificultad de uso, cansancio que producen, frecuentes roturas, dificultades de obtención y de repuestos, corta vida útil, deficiencia constructiva, etc. La inmensa mayoría de los aparatos competitivos alimentan el alambre en forma separada del alicate, y los pocos que lo hacen a través del mango lo hacen con una dificultad mecánica que los hace caros, trabajosos de operar y de fácil rotura. As we have always kept in touch with the inventions and technology of our activity throughout the world, of which in this paper we will present a summary, we have had at our disposal a series of devices that although they have facilitated the task , have left us dissatisfied. Our dissatisfaction has been due to several factors, often happening all of them at the same time: cost, size, weight, complexity, difficulty of use, fatigue that they produce, frequent breaks, obtaining and replacement difficulties, short useful life, constructive deficiency, etc. The vast majority of competitive devices feed the wire separately from the pliers, and the few that do it through the handle do so with a mechanical difficulty that makes them expensive, laborious to operate and easy to break.
A su vez, la mayoría tornean el bucle de la atadura enganchándola y jalando hacía sí, lo cual hace que el gancho gire, estirándose mediante un resorte su fijación al
resto del aparato, lo cual lo hace incómodo y de fácil rotura. Por otra parte, el esfuerzo de tornear la atadura, y por supuesto el de cortarla, lo da la palanca que se aprieta juntándose al resto del aparato, tal como se aprieta una pinza, tenaza o alicate. Esto hace que la separación entre ambas partes del mango sea considerable, produciendo un gran cansancio de la mano y antebrazo que obliga a detenerse después de realizar cierto número de ligazones. In turn, most turn the loop of the tie by hooking it and pulling towards it, which causes the hook to rotate, stretching by means of a spring its attachment to the rest of the device, which makes it uncomfortable and easily broken. On the other hand, the effort to turn the tie, and of course to cut it, is given by the lever that is squeezed together with the rest of the apparatus, such as a clamp, pliers or pliers. This makes the separation between both parts of the handle considerable, causing a great fatigue of the hand and forearm that forces to stop after making a certain number of links.
Todos los detalles descriptos significan que los aparatos son, en el mejor de los casos, incómodos, cansadores, caros, y de una complejidad mecánica que los hace necesariamente de fácil rotura. All the details described mean that the devices are, at best, uncomfortable, tiring, expensive, and of a mechanical complexity that makes them necessarily easy to break.
Como tener algo caro, incómodo y de corta vida es obviamente una situación deficitaria en cuanto a eficiencia, tiempo y costos, es que nos hemos propuesto inventar un aparato que solucionara todos los problemas mencionados. As having something expensive, uncomfortable and short-lived is obviously a deficit in terms of efficiency, time and costs, is that we have set out to invent an apparatus that will solve all the problems mentioned.

Hemos encontrado varios productos comerciales y solicitudes de patentes que refieren al mismo tema. Por las razones que se verá en "Descripción del invento", ninguno de ellos es un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. We have found several commercial products and patent applications that refer to the same subject. For the reasons that will be seen in "Description of the invention", none of them is an inhibitory antecedent for our invention.
Empezaremos con los dos productos comerciales a cuyo uso hemos tenido acceso y cuyas deficiencias son lo que nos motivó a investigar el asunto por nuestra cuenta. We will start with the two commercial products to which we have had access and whose deficiencies are what motivated us to investigate the matter on our own.
Atadora LIGAPAL - producto francés del cual adjuntamos su propaganda por internet. No alimenta el alambre a través del mango, el mismo no es rotatorio, y el torneo se logra mediante jalar el alicate hacia así, lo cual hace girar el gancho que está unido a un resorte. No es, por lo tanto, antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. Tying LIGAPAL - French product of which we attach your propaganda online. It does not feed the wire through the handle, it is not rotary, and the tournament is achieved by pulling the pliers in this way, which rotates the hook that is attached to a spring. It is not, therefore, inhibitory antecedent for our invention.
Atadora Tiefix - este aparato tampoco alimenta el alambre de ligazón a través del mango, sino separadamente del aparato, se compone de dos incómodas mitades del mango, muy separadas y las cuales proveen, durante el 90% de su acercamiento, la fuerza motriz para que el gancho gire y tornee al bucle de la
ligazón, la cual es cortada con el restante 10% del movimiento de juntar los mangos. Ello es muy cansador, no usa la fuerza centrífuga. Por todo ello, no constituye un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. Patente FR2790638 - el aparato aquí descripto es esencialmente una tijera de podar mejorada. Tiene además de ese uso otra posición de fijación con efecto cizalla para el corte de alambres, y en un cilindro totalmente separado, provisto de un resorte al cual está acoplado un gancho que gira al estirar el resorte. Todo su armado, el uso de gancho con resorte, la falta de alimentación de alambre a través del mango, la necesidad de jalar hacia sí para que opere, hacen que no constituya un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. Tiefix Tying - this device also does not feed the tie wire through the handle, but separately from the device, it is composed of two uncomfortable halves of the handle, very separate and which provide, during 90% of its approach, the driving force so that the hook rotate and turn to the loop of the bond, which is cut with the remaining 10% of the movement of joining the handles. This is very tiring, it does not use centrifugal force. Therefore, it does not constitute an inhibitory background for our invention. Patent FR2790638 - the apparatus described herein is essentially an improved pruning shears. In addition to this use, it has another fixing position with shear effect for cutting wires, and in a completely separate cylinder, provided with a spring to which a hook that rotates when the spring is stretched. All its assembly, the use of a spring hook, the lack of wire feeding through the handle, the need to pull it to operate, do not constitute an inhibitory background for our invention.
US5778946 (EP0763323) - Esta herramienta consiste en un alimentador para el extremo del alambre, con varios engranajes de transmisión, y un motor eléctrico que hace los trabajos mecánicos de alimentar, tornear y cortar el cable. La sola existencia de una fuerza motriz, baterías, arnés de sostén, etc, hace a este invento totalmente incomparable al nuestro. El gancho, además, es basculante con respecto a los pivotes 19 y 20. Tiene forma de pistola y no te tenaza, y se aprecia en el mango toda su sofisticación eléctrica, lo cual obviamente influye en su peso, en especial debido a las baterías. Por todo lo mencionado, no constituye un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. US5778946 (EP0763323) - This tool consists of a feeder for the end of the wire, with several transmission gears, and an electric motor that does the mechanical work of feeding, turning and cutting the cable. The mere existence of a driving force, batteries, support harness, etc., makes this invention totally incomparable to ours. The hook, in addition, is tilting with respect to pivots 19 and 20. It has a pistol shape and does not grip you, and all its electrical sophistication can be seen in the handle, which obviously influences its weight, especially due to the batteries . For all the above, it does not constitute an inhibitory antecedent for our invention.
KR800000784 - En este caso, el aparato atador no usa un alambre sino una cinta, con lo cual caduca su función como alicate, y es más bien un apretador (presser) , teniendo además un medio para apretar o unir con la cinta, es decir un medio filiforme además de la cinta y para atar con ella, y una placa de base donde efectuar el corte. Las dos partes del mango de la "tenaza" están, además, extraordinariamente separados y su presión está destinada en parte a hace correr al cinta. Por todo lo mencionado, no constituye un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. KR800000784 - In this case, the attaching device does not use a wire but a tape, which expires its function as a pliers, and is rather a tightener (presser), also having a means to tighten or join with the tape, that is a filiform medium in addition to the ribbon and to tie with it, and a base plate where to make the cut. The two parts of the "pliers" handle are also extraordinarily separated and their pressure is partly intended to run the belt. For all the above, it does not constitute an inhibitory antecedent for our invention.
SU971168 - Esta patente soviética no tiene traducción ni resumen en un idioma occidental, pero sin embargo, apreciando los tres dibujos de la página 2, vemos claramente que no es un aparato que se pueda considerar, siquiera lejanamente, del mismo tipo que el nuestro, estando más bien dedicado a apretar y donde no
hay alambre a ser torneado o cortado. El alambre parece ser pasado por la parte circular, la vid tomada por las bases de los "mangos", y un pasante sostiene a dichos mangos en su lugar. Este adminículo es más bien un gancho en sí mismo que un aparato para atar, tornear y cortar. SU971168 - This Soviet patent has no translation or summary in a Western language, but nevertheless, appreciating the three drawings on page 2, we clearly see that it is not an apparatus that can be considered, even distantly, of the same type as ours, being rather dedicated to squeeze and where not There is wire to be turned or cut. The wire seems to be passed through the circular part, the vine taken by the bases of the "handles," and an intern holds those handles in place. This gadget is rather a hook in itself than a device for tying, turning and cutting.
TW201028081 - Aparato de gran tamaño con el alimentador adosado a uno de los mangos. Se aproxima abierto y bien separado a la vid y al alambre sostén, se cierra y el extremo que no tiene alambre de atadura toma el extremo del mismo, el cual queda expuesto desde el extremo de alimentación, se vuelve a abrir los extremos, tendiendo entonces el alambre de atadura al otro lado del alambre de sostén y la vid, y al jalar el operario hacia sí provoca, mediante gancho y resorte acoplado, que se tornee la atadura, cortándola después con otra función de la palanca que hace como si fuera la otra mitad del mango (palanca 4 en la figura 1 ). Vemos que casi no se parece a nuestro invento, al tender una atadura desde el lado lejano al operador, y por la complexión de todo el sistema, mientras que nuestro invento apenas abre las mandíbulas de su alicate en un par de mm. Por todo lo mencionado, no constituye un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento. TW201028081 - Large appliance with the feeder attached to one of the handles. It approaches open and well separated to the vine and to the support wire, it closes and the end that does not have tie wire takes the end of it, which is exposed from the feeding end, reopens the ends, then tending the tie wire on the other side of the support wire and the vine, and when pulling the operator towards it causes, by means of hook and attached spring, that the tie is turned, cutting it later with another function of the lever that acts as if it were the another half of the handle (lever 4 in figure 1). We see that it almost does not resemble our invention, by tending a tie from the far side to the operator, and by the complexion of the entire system, while our invention barely opens the jaws of its pliers in a couple of mm. For all the above, it does not constitute an inhibitory antecedent for our invention.
NL8302801 - Este invento, que en realidad no es más que un arnés para sostener el rollo del alambre y posiblemente baterías y en mismo equipo cuando el mismo es motorizado y pesado, lo citamos para contrastar la sencillez y liviandad de nuestro invento con todos aquellos que son motorizados o que por otra razón - tal como su complejidad - son pesados. US5394644 - El aparato aquí descripto tiene la particularidad de usar una cinta que es específicamente una cinta adhesiva. No es en forma de tenaza o alicate, sino que se pone el alambre y la vid entre dos de los rayos con terminaciones esféricas sobre los cuales va la cinta, que no se desplaza sobre dichas esferas pues es engomada, pero al desplazarse dichas esferas sobre el extremo de su respectivo rayo hacen que la cinta se desplace en el espacio, abrazando a la vid y su alambre, sin tornear la atadura. Tiene una gran complejidad mecánica, como se ve en las figuras 6 y 7, y el corte final no es por medio de un alicate sino de una simple hoja, en forma similar al corte de una cinta engomada de escritorio. Es obvia su diferencia con nuestro invento, no usando siquiera alambre ni alicates, por lo que no constituye un antecedente inhibitorio para nuestro invento.
Comentarios de las Figuras NL8302801 - This invention, which is really nothing more than a harness to hold the roll of the wire and possibly batteries and in the same equipment when it is motorized and heavy, we quote it to contrast the simplicity and lightness of our invention with all those who they are motorized or for another reason - such as their complexity - they are heavy. US5394644 - The apparatus described herein has the particularity of using a tape that is specifically an adhesive tape. It is not in the form of pliers or pliers, but the wire and the vine are placed between two of the rays with spherical terminations on which the tape goes, which does not move on said spheres as it is glued, but when these spheres move on the end of their respective ray make the tape move in space, hugging the vine and its wire, without turning the tie. It has a great mechanical complexity, as seen in figures 6 and 7, and the final cut is not by means of a plier but by a simple blade, similar to the cut of a desktop tape. Its difference with our invention is obvious, not even using wire or pliers, so it does not constitute an inhibitory background for our invention. Comments of the Figures

Descripción del invento Description of the invention
Nuestro invento consiste en un alicate, con una de las mitades del mango más largas, anchas y anatómicas que la otra, giratoria, estando ambas mitades separadas por un espacio de un par de milímetros, lo cual hace su operación de corte extremadamente fácil, rápida, y no produciendo casi cansancio. Our invention consists of a pliers, with one of the handle halves longer, wider and more anatomical than the other, rotating, both halves being separated by a space of a couple of millimeters, which makes its cutting operation extremely easy, fast , and not producing almost fatigue.
El factor fundamental para el torneado es, en nuestro caso, el acoplamiento de la mitad más grande del mango al cuerpo mismo del alicate mediante un tubo (por el que pasa el alambre de alimentación) que sale del extremo grande del mango y se inserta a presión en dos rulemanes situados en el cuerpo del alicate, permitiendo así que este último gire libremente alrededor de la parte mayor del mango que es la que está sostenida en la mano, y que mediante un movimiento giratorio como para hacer sonar una matraca le da al bucle de la ligazón la tensión y las vueltas que el operario estime conveniente según el caso. Como se ha mencionado, el alambre de la ligazón es alimentado a través de la mitad más grande del mango, teniendo el conducto por el cual se desliza dicho alambre una cresta o saliente que produce en el mismo una tensión tal que sólo la parte del alambre entre esa cresta y el extremo donde está ese alicate (el extremo de la ligazón) resulte torneado. En otras palabras, no se tornea la parte de la alimentación, es decir entre la cresta y la entrada del alambre por la base del mango. The fundamental factor for turning is, in our case, the coupling of the larger half of the handle to the body of the pliers by means of a tube (through which the feed wire passes) that comes out of the large end of the handle and inserted into pressure in two rollers located in the body of the pliers, allowing the latter to rotate freely around the greater part of the handle which is the one that is held in the hand, and that by means of a rotating movement to sound a rattle gives the Loop of the bond the tension and the turns that the operator deems appropriate according to the case. As mentioned, the wire of the linkage is fed through the larger half of the handle, the conduit through which said wire slides a ridge or projection that produces a tension in it such that only the part of the wire between that crest and the end where that pliers (the end of the tie) is turned. In other words, the part of the feed is not turned, that is, between the crest and the entrance of the wire through the base of the handle.
No hay gancho ni resorte al cual el mismo esté unido, no hay que jalar del aparato para tornear el alambre, no hay que apretar trabajosamente dos mitades muy separadas del mango para lograr el torneo, no hay que alimentar separadamente el alambre, la función de torneado no es realizada por el acto de apretar el mango ni de tirar hacia sí el aparato, sino por un simple movimiento giratorio centrífugo de la mano, la cual sostiene la parte más grande del mango (que es la giratoria) y permitiendo así que la otra mano quede totalmente libre.
Es necesario recalcar que, a diferencia de otros artilugios similares, este es útil tanto para zurdos como para diestros. There is no hook or spring to which it is attached, it is not necessary to pull the apparatus to turn the wire, it is not necessary to tighten two halves very far apart from the handle to achieve the tournament, the wire must not be fed separately, the function of turning is not performed by the act of squeezing the handle or pulling the apparatus towards itself, but by a simple centrifugal rotating movement of the hand, which holds the largest part of the handle (which is the rotating) and thus allowing the Another hand is totally free. It is necessary to emphasize that, unlike other similar devices, this is useful for both left-handed and right-handed people.
En todos los otros artículos similares de los que tenemos noticia, la tensión del torneado del bucle por el que la vid u otra planta se une a su alambre o tutor está prefijada por un número de vueltas determinado que es independiente del operador y que no se puede regular. Nuestro aparato, en cambio, aprieta lo necesario según el operario lo estime conveniente, no hay tensión ni número de vueltas prefijado, siendo esto fundamental pues diferentes plantas en diferentes condiciones climáticas y estacionales requieren diferentes tensiones de la ligazón, siendo la tensión correcta en un caso una tensión "de estrangulamiento" en otro. In all other similar articles of which we have news, the tension of the turning of the loop through which the vine or other plant joins its wire or guardian is preset by a certain number of turns that is independent of the operator and that is not can regulate Our device, on the other hand, tightens what is necessary as the operator deems it convenient, there is no tension or number of turns preset, this being fundamental because different plants in different climatic and seasonal conditions require different tensions of the bond, being the correct tension in a case a "strangulation" tension in another.
Prototipo A diferencia de la inmensa mayoría de los inventos, que consisten en ideas que pueden llevarse exitosamente a la práctica o no, el nuestro ha sido llevado al nivel de prototipo y ha sido probado con gran éxito en las plantaciones. Estimamos que esta ventaja es muy importante y demuestra fehacientemente la factibilidad de nuestro desarrollo, necesitándose solamente la protección de una patente para iniciar su fabricación en serie, promoción y venta. Prototype Unlike the vast majority of inventions, which consist of ideas that can be successfully implemented or not, ours has been brought to the prototype level and has been tested with great success in plantations. We believe that this advantage is very important and reliably demonstrates the feasibility of our development, needing only the protection of a patent to start its mass production, promotion and sale.

REIVINDICACIONES
1 ) Aparato para atar la vid u otra planta al alambre cargador o a otro soporte, caracterizado por ser esencialmente un alicate por cuyo mango giratorio ingresa el alambre forrado o hilo que será el que finalmente ate la planta a su soporte, pasando ese alambre por un saliente o cresta dentro del conducto de entrada de tal manera que se tornee sólo del extremo del alicate y no del de la alimentación; siendo que la parte a ser torneada es pasada a través de los filos del alicate y sostenida en su lugar por un alambre curvado y lo mismo sucede para la vuelta del alambre forrado después de haber sido rodeada la planta y su sostén, permitiendo entonces girar el aparato centrífugamente por medio de su mango giratorio que está unido al cuerpo del alicate mediante un tubo que sale del mango giratorio y uno o varios rulemanes que están en el cuerpo del alicate, formando el alambre ya torneado de ida y vuelta una atadura, siendo el alicate algo que cabe fácil y anatómicamente en la mano y cuya alimentación de alambre se realiza por dentro del mango giratorio, permitiendo realizar cada ligazón en pocos segundos. 2) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 , donde el rollo de alambre de alimentación es sostenido a cualquier parte del cuerpo del operario mediante una atadura que permita la rotación. 1) Apparatus for attaching the vine or other plant to the charger wire or to another support, characterized in that it is essentially a pliers through whose rotating handle enters the lined wire or thread that will be the one that finally ties the plant to its support, passing that wire through a projection or crest inside the inlet duct such that it turns only from the end of the pliers and not from the end of the feed; being that the part to be turned is passed through the edges of the pliers and held in place by a curved wire and the same happens for the return of the lined wire after the plant and its support have been surrounded, allowing then to rotate the apparatus centrifugally by means of its rotating handle which is attached to the body of the pliers by means of a tube that comes out of the rotating handle and one or several rollers that are in the body of the pliers, forming the wire already turned back and forth as a tie, the tighten something that fits easily and anatomically in the hand and whose wire feeding is done inside the rotating handle, allowing each link to be made in a few seconds. 2) The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the roll of feed wire is held to any part of the operator's body by means of a tie that allows rotation.
3) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de la 2), donde el alambre de alimentación está contenido -por ejemplo en forma de carretel- dentro del mango del alicate. 3) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally of 2), wherein the feed wire is contained - for example in the form of a reel - within the handle of the pliers.
4) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, cuya separación entre ambas partes del alicate, es decir entre la parte que se aprieta y la fija (el cuerpo), es regulable. 4) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, whose separation between both parts of the pliers, that is between the part that is tightened and fixed (the body), is adjustable.
5) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, teniendo el mismo un resorte cambiable y de tensión variable para separar ambas partes del alicate (la que se aprieta para cortar y el cuerpo) después de haber realizado el corte.
6) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, que además tiene un dispositivo regulable que determina la apertura del alicate. 5) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, the same having a changeable spring and variable tension to separate both parts of the pliers (the one that is pressed to cut and the body) after having made the cut. 6) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, which also has an adjustable device that determines the opening of the pliers.
7) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, cuyo mango puede tener un forro antideslizante y/o acolchado para facilitar el manejo e impedir lesiones por parte del operario. 8) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, cuyo alicate puede ser mucho más poderoso que lo estrictamente necesario para cortar el alambre de ligazón. 7) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, the handle of which can have a non-slip and / or padded lining to facilitate handling and prevent injuries by the operator. 8) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, whose pliers can be much more powerful than what is strictly necessary to cut the binding wire.
9) El aparato de la reivindicación 1 y opcionalmente de una o varias de las restantes, donde el tubo de unión puede salir del cuerpo del alicate y el o los rulemanes pueden estar dentro de la parte giratoria del mango, pudiendo haber o no una parte dentada para impedir que el tubo resbale sobre los rulemanes.
9) The apparatus of claim 1 and optionally one or more of the others, wherein the connecting tube can exit the pliers body and the rudder (s) may be inside the rotating part of the handle, whether or not there may be a part serrated to prevent the tube from slipping on the bearings.
