` METHOD OF FORMING ELECTRICAL CONTACTS Filed Jan. 18, 1957 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 www Patented May 3, 1938 NUNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE METHOD OF FORMING ELECTRICAL CONTACTS Claims.
The primary object of this invention is to provide an improved method for producing electrical contacts from strips of sheet metal through a series of operations which will involve less time and less waste of material. This is accomplished by utilizing a series of spaced stationary dies and registering, punching, forming and embossing dies carried -by the stationary and movable jaws, respectively, of a punch press, and so arranged that a strip of sheet metal advanced a predetermined distance at each actuation of the punch press will form the contact by a series of operations of the dies. This strip may be fed b-y hand or mechanically.
A mechanism suitable for carrying out this invention is fully described in the following specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective of one end of a metal strip indicating the several operations to which the strip is subjected as it advances endwise, a completed contact being shown as severed from the forward end of the strip;
Fig. 2 is a plan view partly in sectiononline 2-2 of Fig. 3 showing the various punching, forming, notching, shearing, and embossing dies used in forming this electrical contact from a strip of sheet metal; v
Fig. 3 is a partial vertical section on broken line 3-3 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a partial vertical section on line 4-4 of Fig. 2 showing a slitting die;
Fig. 5 is a partial vertical section on line 5 5 of Fig. 2 showing a forming die in operation;
Fig. 6 is a partial section on line 6-6 of Fig. 2 showing two forming dies in operation simultaneously;
Figs. 7 and 8 are two partial sections on lines I-l and 8 8, respectively, of' Fig. 2, showing forming dies in operation, Fig. 8 also having an embossing die operating simultaneously therewith; and
Fig. 9 is an enlarged perspective of the finished electrical contact.
The electrical contact for which my improved method of production has been devised is such as may advantageously be-employed to receive engagement from one of the prongs of a vacuum tube. As shown best in Fig. 9, this contact C is made of sheet metal having requisite spring prop-V (Cl. zei-4155.55)
the terminal lug, is a clip c whose angled 4body is sufllciently wide to provide for turned sides c and c2 which face each other whereby to grip between them and the clip body, the prong (not shown) of a vacuum tube or other electrical instrument. Ears d may be extended outwardly from the clip sides at a point adjacent the mounting plate, as shown. l
The mechanism illustrated for punching and forming this contact from a strip of metal comprises a series of dies, the stationary element of each die being carried by the stationary jaw ill of a conventional punch press while the movable members are carried by its movable jaw Il. Inasmuch as a punch press is well known, further ydescription thereof is unnecessary. It is understood, however, that at each actuation of the punch press the movable jaw II descends a predetermined distance toward the stationary jaw III and then returns to its initial position wherein all of the movable parts ofthe die are above the strip.
Two punches I2, I3 which are preferably round pass through suitable guides I4 and coact with registering openings I5, I6 in a die block I1 which is carried by the stationary jaw IIJ to form the holes b', b2. The guide I4 is separated from the die block I1 leaving a passage I8 through which the metal strip S may be fed endwise either manually, or by means of mechanism not shown, a definite amount at each step. The sides of passage I8 serve also to guide the strip laterally, or, if desired, other guide means may be used.
A punch I9 which is secured to the movable x jaw II coacts with a corresponding opening in the die block. This latter punch is preferably rectangular in form with a recessed portion which leaves an ear 20.
At the next operation, when the strip has been advanced toward the left side of the sheet one step, the ear is slitted centrally along the line 2| by means of a punch 22, as shown in Fig. 4, to form the ears d. At the vsame time a notching punch 23 the center of which is preferably in line with the line 2l removes a portion of the left side of the strip so as to outline a portion of the lugs b of the finished contacts b ut leaving a narrow bar 24 to connect adjacent contact blanks. For the sake of convenience, the upper edge of the strip S (Fig. 2) is referred lto as the right side and the lower as the left` side.
At the next stage, and when the strip has been advanced one space, the first forming punch 25 serves to bend down the slitted ears 20 to the position 20'. The lower end of this punch is rounded to serve as a pilot punch for the entire group.
The second forming punch 26 coacts with a stationary forming die 21, as shown in Fig. 3 to cause the parallel slitted portions 28 to be bent vertically into the position 28'. A plunger 28 is slidably mounted in the block 21 and is pressed by means of a spring 30, the spring resting upon a screw 3|. This spring is suillciently strong to force the edge portions 28' out of the die block 21 as the punch 26 recedes. It will be observed also that the upper surface of the die block 21 is slightly raised. so that as the strip is advanced it slides up over the surface 21. Another forming punch 32 serves to curve the lug b as shown in Fig. 6 on the curved die surface 21h. As the strip is again advanced one step, the edge portions 28* of the right hand end -are engaged by a third forming punch 33 whose lower surface is provided with a V-notch v34. As the forming punch 33 descends it presses the right hand end of the contact down against a stationary block 35 and, as it continues to descend, forces the edges 28* inwardly from the dotted line position to the full line position 28h, as shown beneath lthe punch 33 completing the clip c.
The block 35 is provided with a spring pressed plunger- 36 similar to the plunger 29. During this forming operation the plunger 36 is pressed down, as shown, against the action of a spring 31, but as soon as the die rises, the spring 31 will push the plunger 38 up, lifting the right hand end of the formed contact out of the block 35.
As the strip is advanced one more step it reaches the position shown by the section line 1-1 of Fig. 2 wherein the right hand end falls beneath a fourth forming punch 38 .which passes between the inwardly bent edges 28h and bends the clip c down over a ledge 39 until it assumes a position 28e substantially at right angles to tionary ledge 40 by means of a fth forming punch 4| carried by the movable jaw Il. At the same time the body oi' the contact is embossed to form the button b3 by means of an embossing punch 42, as shown in Fig. 3,'cooperating with a depression 43 in a stationary die 44 which carries the ledge 40.
At the same time the finished contact C is completed by means of a shear 45 which cuts away the bar 24 connecting the last contact with the next adjacent contact as indicated by the dotted lines 24.
According to the method of procedure herein described, the contacts in question may be produced economically as regards the material used and the time consumed.
