This invention relates to wiring tools and more particularly to 'a tool for effecting a-solderless connection between electrical conductors.
Constant, low resistance connections are of prime importance in communication and other systems. At present the connections to terminal strips, switch banks, jack strips, relays and the terminals of the various other pieces of equipment employed in telephone system are generally solder joints. These connections require a considerable portion of the labor of manufacturing and installing telephone equipment. Further, if a high degree of care is not exercised in the making of solder connections, they are often defective.
It is therefore an object of this invention to positively form constant, low resistant electrical connections of the solderless type.
Another object is to simplify the production of gas-tight electrical connections.
*A further object is to obtain quality connections having a high degree of uniformity.
In one illustrative embodiment of this invention, a wiring tool comprises a magazine-fed compound leverage plier which swages a sleeve upon the adjacent ends of a plurality of conductors to form a gas-tight low resistance joint between the sleeve and each conductor and between adjacent conductors. A quality insuring devic is provided on the tool adjacent its swaging jaws. This device is adjustable to prevent the removal of a sleeve until it has been compressed to a predetermined minimum degree.
The invention and the various features there- 'of will be understood more clearly and full y from the following detailed description with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is an elevational view of a connecting tool illustrative of one embodiment of this invention, partially broken away to more clearly reveal its elements in their "cooperative relationship;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the head of the tool disclosed in Fig. 1 showing details of the jaws and the cooperating quality insurin'gdevice;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged 'end view taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1 showing the swaging jaws, a connector and the 'quality insuring "device;
Fig. 4 represents the 'jaws'of Fig. 2 as they appear in the compressed position and shows a connector securing a pair of conductors together;
. Fig. 5 is 'a sectional view of thehandle of the tool taken at the line 5-5 of Fig. 1 disclosing the mason-teammate connector magazine and its feed mechanism. I
Fig. 6 illustrates a relay terminal group showing a connector formed by the tool of this invention joining a wire thereto and Fig. "7 is a reproductionof a photomicrograph of a transverse section of a connection formed by this tool, enlarged about forty times.
The tool as disclosed in Fig. '1 comprises a handle H3 having integral therewith at one end a jaw H. Pivotally connected'to the handl ID by pin l2 are a pair of links I3 which are coupled to handle M by pin IS. The links I3 in coop eration with the projection 16 on handle [-4 form a toggle point which exerts a moment on the movable jaw I! to cause it to pivot-around pm I 9 on support member 20, secured to the jaw l I, when the handles I 0 and 14 are brought together.
The handle [0 contains a magazine for the sleeve connectors. This magazine comprises a pair of connected axial slots or grooves, as disclosed in Fig.5, including a lower slot 25 accommodatiing a rod 26 which coaxially supports a lower slot 25 accommodating a rod 26 which 00- axially supports a helical feed spring 21. This feed spring 2"! causes a positive feed 'of the sleeves 28 through the medium of the 'push'rod 29 lying in the upper slot 30 which contains the sleeves. The push rod is ac'tuated'thro'u'gh the onset arm 33 which extends throiugh the restricted slot 3! interconnecting s1ots 25 arrest. The slot 30 extends throughout the length of the handle Hi and into a matrix 35 longitudinal of and in the end of the jaw II to provide a means for continuously feeding sleeve connectors to the matrix as they are used.
Cooperating with the matrix 3 5 is a punch 36 carried on a projection 31 onthe jaw ii. The punch 36 extends through an aperture in a spring 39. A latch 38 is carried on a spring 33 which is secured to the jaws 'l'l by the screw 43, the screw 40 extending through an aperture ear 32 on one end of the spring 39 and into the jaw H. The latch '38 provides the passage of uncompressed sleeves from the open end of the matrix 36 under the force orthe feed spring 27. This latc'h 38 provides a means of controlling the quality of the connection produced since it will only release a 'connection'from the matrix when the sleeve in the connection has been compressed sumcientl'y to pass the lower lip M of the latch 38. The latch 38 also serves to carry the upper edge of the next sleeve fed from the magazine as the compressed sleeve is withdrawn, thus conditioning the tool for the "next'connection to e made. Th separaticsn "between the lower "lip of the latch 38 and the bottom of t'he matrix may be controlled by the screw adjustment stop 43 in cooperation with the screw which positions the spring 39 so its lower surface is biased against the top 43. The screw adjustment stop 43 is supported in a. tapped hole in an apertured top plate 63 which is secured to the handle II] by screws 64 and extends over the upper surface of the jaw l I. Thus when the optimum degree of compression of the sleeve connected has been determined, the latch 38 can be adjusted to pass only these connectors which have been compressed to that degree and will serve as a mechanical gauge to determine the minimum amount of swaging which can be applied to the connector sleeve and still obtain a connection of satisfactory quality.
Further adjustment of the operation of the tool is possible through the threaded stop 44 which is screwed into the tapped hole 45 in the handle 14. The projection of this stop from the handle is controlled by turning to advance or retract it so that it limits the closure of the handles by contacting the upper surface of the mating column 46 which is immovably secured on the handle 10. This stop thus limits the swaging action of the jaw l! to prevent excessive working of the sleeve connectors. Coaxial with the stop 44 and the column 46 is a helical spring 48 which biases the handles apart to open the jaws I! and H. The degree to which the jaws will open due to the bias of the spring 48 is limited by the threaded adjustable stop 49 which is screwed in the tapped hole 50 in the portion of the jaw ll behind the pivot 19.
In operation, the tool is loaded with a quantity of the sleeve connectors 28 by pushing in and turning the knurled knob 51 on the end of the rod 26. This releases the bayonet 52 from the socket 53 and permits the removal of the rod 26 from the slot 25 and the push rod 29 from the slot 30. The sleeves to be employed advantageously are seamless and of a malleable low resistance material such as copper. They are furnished, in a quantity sufficient to provide one load for the tool, threaded upon a stiff wire having enlarged ends to prevent their loss. To load these sleeves an end of the wire is broken off and this free end is inserted in the slot 30, the wire is then withdrawn, while holding the last sleeve in slot 30, to leave the sleeves in the slot. The reinsertion of the push rod 29 and the rod 26 biases the first sleeve against the latch 38 and on securing the bayonet lock 52, 53 the tool is in condition for making connections.
The assembly of Fig. 6 is typical of the type to which connections formed by tools constructed in accordance with this invention can advantageously be employed. It comprises a terminal group for a relay including a plurality of wire spring conductors 55 molded in an insulating block 57 so that they extend continuously through and project from both sides of the block to provide terminals on one side to which conductors 56 can be attached, and contact bearing springs on the other side (no contacts being shown in the drawing).
Connections are made by sliding the connector sleeve 23, which lies in the longitudinal matrix of the tool so its axis is also longitudinal of the jaws, over the parallel adjacent ends of a plurality of conductors 55 and 56, shown in Fig. 6, and closing the tool jaws to swage a connector sleeve 28 on the conductors longitudinal of the jaws. This produces a connection, similar to that shown in Figs. 6 and 7, which is uniformly worked over its cross-section as a result of the matrix and punch being longitudinal of the jaws. The swaging action longitudinal of the jaws eliminates any tendency in the closing of the jaws to work one side of the sleeve more than the other side due to any rocking action of the jaws, which would cause one side of the punch to close upon the sleeve before and/or to a greater extent than the other side. Thus there is no tendency to crowd the material of the sleeve and the conductors to one side of the connection and a uniform joint as disclosed in Fig. 7 results. The matrix is semicircular in cross-section and the punch is fiat, hence, they produce a D-shaped finished connection without fins, as shown in Fig. '7, so that full pressure is applied to the interior of the connection. This produces an intimate contact between the swaged sleeve 28 and the conductors 55 and 56 as shown at 69 in the reproduced photomicrograph in Fig. 7 to form a low resistance, gas-tight contact which, as a result of the gas-tight feature, is not subject to corrosion and therefore has a long life and does not alter its resistance on ageing. Also, if the conductors are of workable material as is the case with conductor 56 in Fig. '7, there is a slight deformation Bl of the conductor into intimate contact with adjacent conductors, this action being limited by the working of the conductor into the wall of the malleable sleeve.
Thus, the tool provides a simple means for making a long life low resistance connection requiring little skill in its formation and having a high degree of uniformity and quality without the use of solder. Further, the connections which can be made with this tool are not limited to those between wires for it has been found that an entirely satisfactory joint can be made to fiat terminals by slotting them to a proper size to fit within the sleeve and crimping the sleeve over them in the same manner as above set forth.
