Driller

Driller stands for:

Rotating house , rotating punishment cage in the Middle Ages
USS Driller , US Navy ship
Driller (shift supervisor) , shift supervisor in the oil industry
Driller (tool) , hand tool for twisting wire loops for bundling and closing
Driller (device) , large-omega-shaped plastic parts of suitable rigidity, in the bay of which cables are inserted to bundle and / or hold them. A drill typically has two levels of symmetry. Its Kznststoffdrahr has a round or square cross-section with 2-3 mm diameter and describes the formation of the bay about a three-quarter circle. At each end there is a small, oppositely curved semicircle (inner radius = 2 × wire diameter, curve curve 135–175 degrees) and finally a ball with a 4–8 mm diameter. In the initial state, the small arcs almost touch each other.

The large arch is widened slightly to insert the cables. To close the drill, its small counterbows are hooked together, which is done by compressing and twisting the pair of end balls by about 135 degrees using the thumb and 1–2 counter-fingertips. Drillers that have been closed for a long time deform a little plastically, but they can still be twisted in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction practically equally well. Drillers can hold a fastening loop with their bay or, as a rule, have a fastening element molded onto the outside in the middle. This can be a barbed pin that is held in the appropriate hole in a sheet metal or another drill that connects with a rod or hose. Easy to open and close without tools. Often used in white goods or vehicles. Typically made of nylon, sometimes colored.
