Definitions

  • These tools commonly include a crimping die and a corresponding die nest. Since anelectrical system will usually employ various wire sizes it is advantageous to use a tool that will accommodate a variety of such wire sizes.
  • the present invention deals with an improved head to be used in a crimping tool wherein the die nest can easily be adjusted to various positions for use in crimping wires of different sizes.
  • Figure 1 represents an end view of one embodiment of a portion of a crimping tool employing the present invention
  • Figure 2 represents a sectional view of the subassembly shown in Figure 1 and taken along lines II--II of Figure Figure 3 is an exploded perspective view of the particular locking means used;
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2, showing the relationship of parts when the die nest is changed.
  • Figure 5 is a top view of the particular locking means employed.
  • the exemplary form shows a cap-member which threads at 12 into a tool body 14.
  • a hydraulically operated die 16 is slidably mounted in the cap member.
  • the illustrative example includes a head member generally indicated at A pivotally mounted on pivot pin 17 which seats in cap 10.
  • head member A is composed of a pair of parallel plates 18, 20 and a connecting top plate 22 to form a U-shaped member (see Figure 1). Aligned openings 24, 26 are provided, one in each of the respective plates. A pivot pin 28 is positioned so that each end is seated in one of the openings. The pivot pin 28 is provided with a knurled end 30 so that the pivot pin may be rotated when the end is turned.
  • the preferred embodiment as shown has a die nest wheel 31 fixed to pivot pin 28 by means of a set screw 32 which bottoms on a flat surface 33 on the pivot pin 28.
  • the die nest wheel 31 shown in the drawings has four die nests 34 of graduated sizes positioned at intervals on the circumference of the on the wheel adjacent to each nest. The outer surfaces of the die nest wheel are milled in the area of each of the nests to a predetermined thickness. Also flat portions 36 are provided on the circumference of the die nest wheel on opposite sides of each of the nests. These flat portions engage a stop means generally indicated at B to prevent rotation of the die nest wheel 31.
  • the locking means B is comprised of a pair of generally rectangular members 38 and 40 (see Figure 3).
  • the member 38 has a laterally extending flange portion 44 at one end and an actuating button 46 at the opposite end.
  • a foot portion 42 depends from the flange 44.
  • the other rectangular member 40 has a depending foot portion 48 at one end thereof.
  • the member 40 seats against the member 38 in side by side relationship with the foot portion 48 in the vicinity of the actuating button 46 and the other end buttressing against the flange 44 (see Figures 3 and 5).
  • a slot 50 in the first rectangular member 38 opposes a similar slot 52 in the second rectangular member 40 so that the slots 50, 52 complement each other seats in a recess 68 in the latch and the other end seats in an opening 70 in the locking means.
  • the tool is assembled as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the proper size die nest 34 opposes the die member 16.
  • the connector and wire are seated in the nest in crimping relationship.
  • the die is forced toward the die nest to effect the crimping operation.
  • the die is released and the wire and connector are removed.
  • the actuating button 46 is moved inwardly against the action of spring 66 ( Figure 4). Foot portion 42 which prevents rotation of the nest wheel is thereby released and the nest wheel is moved to another position by rotating the knurled end 30 of pivot pin 28 thus rotating the pivot pin 28 and die nest wheel 31 attached thereto.
  • the actuating button 46 is depressed and the wheel rotated until the arcuate circumference of segment 7 2' of the wheel 31 passes the foot member 42. Then the button 46 is.
  • a crimping device including a die assembly movable along a path, a die nest wheel, a plurality of spaced die nests carried by said die nest wheel each of said spaced die nests having a different angular position about said die nest wheel, a rotatable mounting for said die nest wheel whereby said dienest wheel can be turned into various angular positions with respect to the path of said die assembly to present various ones of said spaced die nests toward said path, flattened surfaces on the periphery of the diev n'est wheel, adjacent each of the spaced die nests, a releasable stop means comprised of a pair of rectangular members in side-by-side relationship, a foot portion depending from one end of each of the members, each foot portion resiliently biased into contact with the flattened surface adjacent one of the spaced dies to prevent rotation of 'the die nest wheel, said stop means arranged to hold said die nest wheel in said various angular positions with various ones 4 of said die neststoward said path and force-ex
  • a device for crimping an electrical connector onto a conductor including: a body member, a head releasably secured to the body member, a die member longitudinally movable within the body member, a cap member releasably secured to the;,body member by means of a resilient latch means, a die nest wheel rotatably mounted within-the cap member and having aplurality of spaced die nests of, various sizes on the periphery of the die nest wheel, flattened surfaces on the periphery of the die nest wheel, one on each side of each of the die nests, a releasablestop means positioned in the cap adjacent the periphery of the die nest wheel and in juxtaposition to v the latch means, said stop means comprised of a pair of rectangular members in side-byside relationship, each having a depending foot portion cooperable with one of the flattened surfaces on the die nestwheel to prevent rotation thereof, a spring, meansextending between thev latch means and one of the rectangular members urging the latch means
