Abstract

In the case of a device for connecting a wire to a contact element or the like by deforming clamping devices by means of pressure elements of a crimping tool which is arranged in a replaceable manner in a press, an adjusting disc (14) on the clamping device side is allocated, such that it can rotate coaxially, for refining the height adjustment capability of a further adjusting disc (13) (which can rotate about the axis (A) of a locking bolt (16) or such like holding device pointing in the pressing direction (x) and is provided on the pressing device side), both adjusting discs in each case being provided with at least one annular surface (108) which rises like a spiral in the pressing direction (x). Each of the annular surfaces (108) has a radial step edge (110) as a boundary between the start and the end of the rise. In addition, the heights of the step edges are intended to be identical. <IMAGE>
