Das erfindungsgemässe Gerät hat die allgemeine Form einer herkömmlichen Crimp-Zange 10 mit einem Paar Backen 11, 12 und einem Paar Handgriffen 21, 22. Die erste Backe 11 ist mit dem ersten handgriff 21 starr zu einem Gerätekörper 20 verbunden, wo­bei die zweite Backe 12 beweglich, vom zweiten Handgriff 22 ange­trieben, und am Gerätekörper 20 mittels eines Zangenbolzenorgans angelenkt ist.The device according to the invention has the general shape of conventional crimping pliers 10 with a pair of jaws 11, 12 and a pair of handles 21, 22. The first jaw 11 is rigidly connected to the first handle 21 to form a device body 20, the second jaw 12 movable, driven by the second handle 22, and is articulated on the device body 20 by means of a pincer organ.

Das Zangenbolzenorgan kann entweder die Form eines her­kömmlichen Bolzens 16 (Fig. 5), oder diejenige eines Schenkels 15′ eines später näher beschriebenen U-förmigen Bügels 15 haben. Die Backen 11, 12 tragen in herkömmlicher Weise je einen, vor­zugsweise austauschbaren, Press-Stempel 11a, 12a. Die beiden Press-Stempel bilden zusammen ein Gesenke oder eine Crimp-Sta­tion. Insofern ist die Konstruktion herkömmlich.The pliers pin member can either have the shape of a conventional pin 16 (Fig. 5), or that of a leg 15 'of a U-shaped bracket 15 described later. The jaws 11, 12 each carry, in a conventional manner, one, preferably exchangeable, press stamp 11a, 12a. The two press stamps together form a die or a crimping station. In this respect, the construction is conventional.

Erfindungsgemäss ist am Zangenbolzenorgan 15′, 16 ein länglicher, entlang der Backen 11, 12 und über ihre freien Enden 11′, 12′ hinaus sich streckender Tragarm 13 mit seinem ersten Ende 13′ (Fig. 2) schwenkbar angeordnet. An das entgegengesetzte freie zweite Ende 13˝ des Tragarmes 13 ist mittels eines Anlenk­zapfens 14 ein ebenfalls länglicher Zuführtisch 23 angelenkt. Der Zuführtisch 23 ist kürzer als der Tragarm 13, streckt sich ent­lang des Tragarmes 13 zurück zu den freien Enden 11′, 12′ der Backen 11, 12 und endet bei 23′ im Bereiche dieser freien Enden.According to the pin bolt member 15 ', 16 an elongated, along the jaws 11, 12 and beyond their free ends 11', 12 'extending arm 13 with its first end 13' (Fig. 2) is pivotally arranged. At the opposite free second end 13˝ of the support arm 13, a likewise elongated feed table 23 is articulated by means of a pivot pin 14. The feed table 23 is shorter than the support arm 13, stretches along the support arm 13 back to the free ends 11 ', 12' of the jaws 11, 12 and ends at 23 'in the area of these free ends.

Am Zuführtisch 23 ist eine Vorschubeinheit 24 für die Zuführung von Bandware 30 (Fig. 8) zur Crimp-Station 11a, 12a derart fest angeordnet, dass sich entlang der ganzen Länge einer Seite der Vorschubeinheit ein länglicher, niedriger Spalt S ober­halb der oberen Fläche 23˝ des Zuführtisches 23 erstreckt. Die Vorschubeinheit 24 enthällt eine frei drehbar gelagerte, an einem aus der Vorschubeinheit 24 herausragenden oberen Teil 24a′ von dem Finger einer Hand antreibbare Transportrolle 24a. Mit ihrem unteren Teil 24a˝ berührt die Transportrolle 24a im Spalt S die obere Fläche 23˝ des Zuführtisches 23.A feed unit 24 for feeding tape goods 30 (FIG. 8) to the crimping station 11a, 12a is fixedly arranged on the feed table 23 such that an elongated, low gap S is located above the upper surface 23 along the entire length of one side of the feed unit ˝ of the feed table 23 extends. The feed unit 24 contains a freely rotatable, on a protruding from the feed unit 24 protruding upper part 24a 'driven by the finger of a hand transport roller 24a. With its lower part 24a˝, the transport roller 24a contacts the upper surface 23˝ of the feed table 23 in the gap S.

Die Transportrolle 24a ist an ihrem Umfang vorzugsweise mit einem etwas nachgiebigen Friktionsreifen 24b, z.B. aus Gummi od. dgl., versehen, und berührt dann die Fläche 23˝ mit diesem Reifen. Alternativ kann sie einen geriefelten Umfang aufweisen od. dgl.The transport roller 24a is preferably provided with a somewhat flexible friction tire 24b, e.g. made of rubber or the like, provided, and then touches the surface 23˝ with this tire. Alternatively, it can have a corrugated circumference or the like.

Das auf an sich bekannte, ausserhalb des Rahmens der vorliegenden Erfindung liegende Weise hergestellte Band 30 (Fig. 8) weist einen Randstreifen R mit von der Herstellung herstammen­den Manipulationsöffnungen R′, und eine Vielzahl von Kontakten K auf. Jeder Kontakt K weist einen Kontaktteil K′ und einen An­schlussteil K˝ auf, von denen der letztere dazu bestimmt ist, um das abisolierte Ende eines elektrischen Leiters vercrimpt zu werden. Die einzelnen Kontakte K sind mit dem Randstreifen R an einer einzigen Stelle, jenseits des Anschlussteiles K˝, verbun­den. Der oben erwähnte Spalt S bei der Vorschubeinheit 24 hat eine Dicke, welche die Einführung des Randstreifens R ermöglicht.The band 30 (FIG. 8), which is manufactured in a manner known per se and lies outside the scope of the present invention, has an edge strip R with manipulation openings R ′ originating from the manufacture, and a multiplicity of contacts K. Each contact K has a contact part K 'and a connecting part K˝, the latter of which is intended to crimp the stripped end of an electrical conductor will. The individual contacts K are connected to the edge strip R at a single point, beyond the connecting part K˝. The above-mentioned gap S in the feed unit 24 has a thickness which enables the edge strip R to be introduced.

Die Lagerung sowohl des Zangenbolzenorgans 15′ oder 16, als auch des Anlenkzapfens 14 ist gemäss Fig. 5 und 6 mit Rück­führelementen 14a, 15a in Form von Federwindungen versehen, so dass sowohl der Tragarm 13 - nach Verschwenken gegenüber der festen Backe 11 bzw. dem Gerätekörper 20 - als auch der Zuführ­tisch 23 - nach Verschwenken gegenüber dem Tragarm 13 - in die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Ruhelage automatisch zurückgebracht werden.The storage of both the pliers pin member 15 'or 16, and the pivot pin 14 is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 with return elements 14a, 15a in the form of spring coils, so that both the support arm 13 - after pivoting relative to the fixed jaw 11 or Device body 20 - as well as the feed table 23 - after pivoting relative to the support arm 13 - are automatically returned to the rest position shown in FIG. 1.

Die Verschwenkungen, und somit auch die betreffenden Ruhelagen, werden von zusammenarbeitenden Paaren von Anschlag­organen festgelegt. Im Falle des Tragarmes 13 handelt es sich einerseits um ein später näher zu beschreibendes Plättchen 25a, welches gegen die Kante des oberen Press-Stempels 11a stösst (Begrenzung beim Ausschwenken nach oben), und anderseits (Begren­zung beim Verschwenken nach unten, d.h. in die Ruhelage) aus einem im Tragarm 13 nahe dem Lagerbolzenorgan 15′, 16 (Fig. 5) angeordneten Zylinderstift 13b, der in einer Nut 13b′ im Zangen­körper 20 läuft, und am Ende der Nut anschlägt.The pivots, and thus also the relevant rest positions, are determined by cooperating pairs of stop members. In the case of the support arm 13, there is on the one hand a plate 25a to be described in more detail later, which abuts the edge of the upper press ram 11a (limitation when swiveling upwards), and on the other hand (limitation when swiveling downwards, ie into the rest position) ) from a support arm 13 near the bearing pin member 15 ', 16 (Fig. 5) arranged cylindrical pin 13b, which runs in a groove 13b' in the pliers body 20, and strikes at the end of the groove.

Im Falle des Zuführtisches 23 bestehen die Anschlagorgane, welche die Ruhelage bestimmen, aus einer Kante 13a (Fig. 2) des Tragarms 13, und aus einer benachbarten Kante 24a eines vorste­henden Teiles der Vorschubeinheit 24.In the case of the feed table 23, the stop members which determine the rest position consist of an edge 13a (FIG. 2) of the support arm 13 and an adjacent edge 24a of a projecting part of the feed unit 24.

Ein anderes Paar von Anschlagorganen, welches aus dem Kopf 23a′ einer im Zuführtisch 23 eingeschraubten Schraube 23a (Fig. 1a), und einer diesen Schraubenkopf 23a′ etwas überragenden Kante 25a′ eines später näher zu beschreibenden, am Tragarm 13 fest angeordneten plattenförmigen Messers 25a, sichert die maxi­mal ausgeschwenkte Lage des Zuführtisches 23 gegenüber dem Trag­arm 13.Another pair of stop members, which from the head 23a 'a screw 23a screwed into the feed table 23 (Fig. 1a), and this screw head 23a' slightly protruding edge 25a 'of a later described, fixed to the support arm 13 plate-shaped knife 25a , ensures the maximum pivoted position of the feed table 23 relative to the support arm 13.

Am freien Ende 12′ der beweglichen Backe 12 ist als ein Mitnehmerglied für den Zuführtisch 23 eine Stellschraube 19 ange­ordnet, die bei einer Schliessbewegung der beweglichen Backe 12 im Sinne des Pfeiles P (Fig. 1a) mit dem zugewandten Ende 23′ des Zuführtisches 23, bzw. mit einem dort fest angeordneten, später näher zu beschreibenden Messer 25b eingreifen kann um den Zuführ­ tisch 23 um den Anlenkzapfen 14 herum nach oben zu verschwenken bis zum gegenseitigen Eingriff der genannten Anschlagglieder 23a′ und 25a′.At the free end 12 'of the movable jaw 12, a set screw 19 is arranged as a driver for the feed table 23, which with a closing movement of the movable jaw 12 in the direction of arrow P (Fig. 1a) with the facing end 23' of the feed table 23, or with a fixedly arranged knife 25b, which will be described later, can engage around the feed table 23 to pivot around the pivot pin 14 up to the mutual engagement of said stop members 23a 'and 25a'.

Aus Fig. 5 geht hervor, dass sowohl der Gerätekörper 20, als auch die bewegliche Backe 12 mit Vorteil in herkömmlicher Weise aus je zwei im Abstand voneinander angeordneten Seitenplat­ten bestehen können.5 shows that both the device body 20 and the movable jaw 12 can advantageously consist in a conventional manner of two spaced apart side plates.

Zwischen der Vorschubeinheit 24 und dem Gesenke 11a, 12a ist ein Paar zusammenarbeitender, eine Schneidstation zum Abschneiden der Bandware 30 bildender Messer angeordnet, das aus den bereits erwähnten Messern 25a und 25b besteht. Das Messer 25a ist von einem am Tragarm 13 befestigtem Plättchen, und das Messer 25b von einem am Zuführtisch 23 mittels der bereits genannten Schraube 23a befestigtem Klotz gebildet. Ein freier Teil der un­teren Fläche 25aa des Plättchens 25a befindet sich in, oder unbe­deutend oberhalb, der oberen Fläche 23˝ des Zuführtisches 23.Arranged between the feed unit 24 and the dies 11a, 12a is a pair of cooperating knives, which form a cutting station for cutting the strip material 30 and which consist of the knives 25a and 25b already mentioned. The knife 25a is formed by a plate attached to the support arm 13 and the knife 25b by a block attached to the feed table 23 by means of the screw 23a already mentioned. A free part of the lower surface 25aa of the plate 25a is located in, or slightly above, the upper surface 23˝ of the feed table 23.

Die einander zugewandten Kanten des Plättchens 25a und des Klotzes 25b sind zu Schneidkanten 25a′ 25b′ ausgebildet, wo­bei die Kante 25a′ des Messers 25a zugleich die oben erwähnte Funktion eines Anschlaggliedes füllt.The mutually facing edges of the plate 25a and the block 25b are formed into cutting edges 25a '25b', the edge 25a 'of the knife 25a also fills the abovementioned function of a stop member.

An der ersten Backe 11 ist neben dem Press-Stempel 11a ein Anschlag- und Festhalteorgan 17 gemäss Fig. 7 angeordnet, welches als Festhalteglied eine federbelastete Kulisse 17a auf­weist und dazu dient, den Kontakt K zu führen und insbesondere gegen Verdrehen zu sichern, und ferner einerseits einen Anschlag bildet, der ein zu weites Einführen des Leiters in den Kontakt verhindert, und anderseits auch die Funktion hat, den vercrimpten Kontakt aus dem Gesenk auszuwerfen.Arranged on the first jaw 11 in addition to the press ram 11a is a stop and holding element 17 according to FIG. 7, which has a spring-loaded link 17a as a holding member and serves to guide the contact K and in particular to secure it against rotation, and further on the one hand forms a stop which prevents the conductor from being inserted too far into the contact, and on the other hand also has the function of ejecting the crimped contact from the die.

Das Zangenbolzenorgan 15′ ist von einem Schenkel eines bügel- bzw. U-förmigen Halters 15 gebildet, dessen im Abstand ge­legener zweiter Schenkel 15˝ dazu bestimmt ist, eine Vorratsspule 27 (Fig. 2 und 3) für einen (nicht dargestellten) aufgewickelten Vorrat Bandmaterial 30 zu tragen, das bei E in die Vorschubein­heit 24 einzuführen ist. Das erfindungsggemässe Gerät kann natür­lich auch für kürzere, nicht auf einer Spule aufgewickelte Längen Bandmaterial angewandt werden, und folglich kann das Zangenbol­zenorgan auch aus einem herkömmlichen Bolzen 16 gemäss Fig. 5 bestehen.The pliers pin member 15 'is formed by one leg of a bracket-shaped or U-shaped holder 15, the spaced second leg 15˝ is intended for a supply spool 27 (Fig. 2 and 3) for a (not shown) wound supply To carry tape material 30, which is to be inserted into the feed unit 24 at E. The device according to the invention can of course also be used for shorter lengths of strip material that are not wound on a spool, and consequently the pincer pin element can also consist of a conventional pin 16 according to FIG. 5.

Das Gerät arbeitet auf folgende Weise. Das Band 30 wird mit seinem Randstreifen R bei E in den Spalt S zwischen dem Ge­häuse der Vorschubeinheit 24 und der Oberfläche 23˝ des Zuführti­sches 23 eingeschoben, und bis unter die Transportrolle 24a ge­führt, wonach es derart zur Crimpstation 11a, 11b vorgeschoben wird, dass die Transportrolle 24a an ihrem oben herausragenden Umfangsteil 24a′ mit einem Finger einer Hand im Sinne des Pfeiles P′ gedreht wird.The device works in the following way. The band 30 is inserted with its edge strip R at E into the gap S between the housing of the feed unit 24 and the surface 23˝ of the feed table 23, and is guided under the transport roller 24a, after which it is advanced to the crimping station 11a, 11b in such a way that the transport roller 24a is rotated on its peripheral part 24a projecting above with a finger of a hand in the direction of the arrow P '.

Der Vorschub kann jedoch nur so weit erfolgen, bis der Randstreifen R, unter das Plättchen 25a gelangt, dort an einen festen Anschlag 18 stosst, der so gelegen ist, dass sich der ers­te Kontakt K des Bandes 30 dann genau im Gesenke 11a, 12a befin­det. In den Anschlussteil K˝ diese Kontaktes K wird nun das ab­isolierte Ende eines Leiters eingeschoben.However, the feed can only take place until the edge strip R, under which the plate 25a comes, abuts there against a fixed stop 18, which is located such that the first contact K of the band 30 is then exactly in the die 11a, 12a . The stripped end of a conductor is now inserted into the connecting part K˝ of this contact K.

Durch Betätigen des Handgriffes 22 wird die zweite Bak­ke 12 an die erste Backe 11 herangeführt und der Kontakt K, vom abgefederten Festhalteglied 17a stabilisiert, wird auf herkömm­liche Weise um den Leiter vercrimpt. Hierbei wird jedoch auch der zu dem betreffenden Kontakt gehörende Endteil R˝ des Randstrei­fens R vom Rest des Randstreifens abgetrennt, sowie auch der Kon­takt K vom abgetrennten Endteil R˝ abgeschieden.By actuating the handle 22, the second jaw 12 is brought up to the first jaw 11 and the contact K, stabilized by the spring-loaded retaining member 17a, is crimped around the conductor in a conventional manner. Here, however, the end part R Rand of the edge strip R belonging to the contact in question is separated from the rest of the edge strip, and also the contact K is separated from the separated end part R˝.

Dies geschieht auf folgende Weise. Beim Anheben der zweiten Backe 12 wird mittels der Stellschraube 19 der Zuführ­tisch 23 um den Anlenkzapfen 14 nach oben verschwenkt, und hier­bei wird der Randstreifen R - dessen Endstück R˝ sich unter dem Plättchen 25 befindet - von den zusammenarbeitenden Schneidkanten 25a′ und 25b′, die quer zur Längsrichtung der Bandware 30 verlau­fen, durchschnitten.This is done in the following way. When lifting the second jaw 12, the feed table 23 is pivoted upward about the pivot pin 14 by means of the adjusting screw 19, and the edge strip R - the end piece R˝ of which is located under the plate 25 - from the cooperating cutting edges 25a 'and 25b', which run transversely to the longitudinal direction of the band goods 30, cut through.

Hierbei ist jedoch zu beachten, dass die Einstell­schraube 19 in Ruhelage gemäss Fig. 1a ein Stück unterhalb des Messerklotzes 25b bei 19′ endet, so dass die zweite Backe 12 vorerst einen Teil ihrer Schliessbewegung durchführen muss, näm­lich bis der Press-Stempel 12a in die Höhe der oberen Fläche des Plättchens 25a gelangt, bevor ein Eingriff zwischen der Stell­schraube 19 und dem Zuführtisch 23 zustande kommt. Die Stell­schraube 19 ermöglicht hierbei den Zeitpunkt des Eingriffs und die gegenseitige Endlage der beiden Schneidkanten genau einzu­stellen.It should be noted, however, that the adjusting screw 19 ends in the rest position according to FIG. 1a a bit below the knife block 25b at 19 ', so that the second jaw 12 must first carry out part of its closing movement, namely until the press die 12a into the Height of the upper surface of the plate 25a reaches before an engagement between the adjusting screw 19 and the feed table 23 takes place. The set screw 19 enables the timing of the engagement and the mutual end position of the two cutting edges to be set precisely.

Die Abtrennung des Kontakts K vom Randstreifen R er­folgt mittels zweier zusammenarbeitender, in Längsrichtung der Bandware 30 verlaufenden Schneidkanten, nämlich einer in der Längsrichtung der Bandware verlaufenden Kante 25a˝ (Fig. 4) des Plättchens 25a, und der oberen Endkante der zugewandten Flanke des Press-Stempels 12a in der zweiten Backe 12.The contact K is separated from the edge strip R by means of two cooperating cutting edges running in the longitudinal direction of the strip material 30, namely an edge 25a˝ (FIG. 4) of the plate 25a running in the longitudinal direction of the strip material, and the upper end edge of the facing flank of the press Stamp 12a in the second jaw 12.

Die letztgenannte Endkante ist in der Zeichnung nicht sichtbar; sie liegt hinter der oberen Endkante 12a′ (Fig. 1a) der vom Plättchen 25a abgewandten Flanke des Press-Stemples 12a. Das Abtrennen erfolgt in dem Augenblick, wenn dieser Press-Stempel 12a mit dem aufgelegen Kontakt K zufolge der Schliessbewegung der zweiten Backe 12 dicht an der Längskante 25˝ von unten nach oben vorbeigeführt wird.The latter end edge is not visible in the drawing; it lies behind the upper end edge 12a '(Fig. 1a) of the flank of the press die 12a facing away from the plate 25a. The separation takes place at the moment when this press stamp 12a with the contact K placed thereon is guided close to the longitudinal edge 25˝ from bottom to top due to the closing movement of the second jaw 12.

Das abgetrennte Endstück R˝ des Randstreifens R bildet Abfall, der aus dem Gerät herausfällt. Nach Rückführung der zwei­ten Backe 12 in die Ausgangslage kann ein neuer Vorschub und ein neues Vercrimpen stattfinden.The separated end piece R˝ of the edge strip R forms waste that falls out of the device. After returning the second jaw 12 to the starting position, a new feed and a new crimping can take place.
