Definitions

  • This invention relates to improvements in crimping tools of the type utilized to attach electrical connectors to conductors. More particularly, this invention contemplates means cooperating with crimping dies to assure proper alignment of connector components relative to die closure.
  • ports are provided in the outer connector ferrule permitting the insertion of dies which engage and compress the inner connector ferrule against the cable center conductor.
  • the foregoing objects are obtained by the present invention through the provision of flange members positioned over and above crimping dies and adapted for movement therewith to engage and guide connector assembly members into a position of alignment relative to die travel.
  • the flange members of the invention are disposed on either side of one crimping die to define surfaces parallel and spaced apart by a distance slightly larger than the outer diameter of a connector over a segment of such connector including the portion to be crimped.
  • the length of the flange members is such as to engage the connector at a point of die travel well before the position wherein the dies begin material compression to perform the crimping operation and thus assure that proper alignment will be effected prior to any opportunity for component damage.
  • the flange members may be integrally formed with one crimping die or may be part of a separate attachment fitted onto existing dies for the modification of existing tooling.
  • FIGURE 1 is a perspective showing one embodiment of the invention incorporated in the head portion of a hand tool of standard construction
  • FIGURE 2 is an enlarged sectional View taken along lines 22 of FIGURE 1 showing the embodiment of the invention with the tool in an open position relative to a connector assembly to be crimped, the assembly being loosely held on one crimping die;
  • FIGURE 3 depicts the structure of FIGURE 2 partially closed showing the alignment feature of the invention in operation

  • each connector half is carried out with three distinct crimps being performed simultaneously, upon the respective portions of the connector by three distinct sets of dies commonly mounted and driven.
  • FIGURE 1 wherein one embodiment of the invention is shown mounted for use in a hand tool of standard construction.
  • the hand tool shown is of the straight action type wherein rotary movement of handles and 12 about handle connecting pin 14 operates to drive handle connecting pins 18 and 22 connected between handle end members 16 and 20, respectively, to drive jaw members 24 and 26 in rotary movement about pin members 32 and 34 held by jaw connecting plates 28 and 30.
  • Jaws 24 and 26 include jaw extensions 36 and 38 each having an interior slot, not 1 shown, defining a surface engaging die driving pin members 40 and 42responsive to jaw movement. Movement of die halves is restrained to a straight line by the cooperation of head portions 50 and 54 of die retaining pins 48 and 52 with slot 47 in die support plate 46 as best shown in FIGURE 5.
  • the left die halves comprised of three dies 152, 142 and 60 serving as insulation, braid and wire barrel crimping dies, respectively, are secured in an interlocking relationship against relative movement by pin members 40 and 48.
  • Theright die halves 154, 144 and 80 which complement the left die half set are held in a similar fashion by pin members 42 and 52.
  • movement'forcing handles 10 and 12 together operates to drive pins 18 and 22 outwardly thus driving the lower portions of jaw members 24 and 26 apart and the upper portions 36 and 38 together.
  • This movement operates to drive each die half inwardly in a movement related to handle movement.
  • the surfaces of die members 60, 142 and 152 and complementary faces 80, 144 and 154 are positioned relative to sections of connector half as shown in FIGURE 5 to engage and perform simultaneous crimps upon the connector.
  • O crimps are utilized for the insulating crimping ferrule 114 and the braid ferrule 116 while a series of partial O crimps is utilized for the wire barrel ferrule 122.
  • the characteristics of such crimp are indicated by the configuration of the indentor dies 60 and80 each having, respectively, raised portions 62 and 66, 86 and 88 and recessed portions 64 and 90.
  • the cross sectional area of each die half 60 and 80 is made in shape and size as slightly less than that of a cross sectional area of the ing tool and/or damage the die faces as a considerable portion of the connector is crushed during the required closure stroke.
  • connector half 112 hangs in a hinged fashion upon inner die 80 at a point of contact Y with dielectric 124 and a point Z of the ferrule 118 proximate aperture 120.
  • the path of die travel indicated by dotted lines in FIGURES 2 and 3 isprevented from crushing ferrule 118 by the provision of flange members 68 and 76 on each side of indentor die 60 which operate to cam the connector assembly upwardly to align the port 121 with indentor die travel.
  • Flange members 68 and 7.6 each include rounded portions at the ends thereof adapted to provide a transition surface at the point of contact with both the connector ferrule 18 and flanges 92 and 94 of opposing die half 80.
  • flange member 68 includes an outer rounded surface 78 and a inner rounded surface 74 and-flange member '76 includes an outer rounded surface 70 and an inner rounded surface 72.
  • Die half 80 includes spaced flange members 92 and 94 having inner rounded surfaces 96 and 98; the rounded surface operating to assure that a proper enclosure of dies 60 and 80 will be achieved without hanging up of either member of 68 and 76 on members 92 and 94, or of members 68 and 76 on the coaxial connector ferrule 118. It is preferred that the interior surface of members 68 and 76 be polished toa fine polished finish. This feature in connection with the inherent lubrication of the gold plating on ferrule 118 of the coaxial connector operates to assure that the connector shell will slide easily within the surface defined by members 68 and 76.
  • the interior surfaces of members 68 and 76 form parallel surfaces defining a channel of a diameter D which is slightly larger than the diameter of the coaxial connector ferrule 1'18.
  • D may be made equal to approxim-ate the ferrule diameter of the coaxial connector to be crimped plus the maximum variation in manufacturing tolerance expected including gold plating plus one or two mils.
  • the dimension D might be .251 plus .002 or minus .000 inches.
  • the exterior dimension D of members 68 and 76 maybe made slightly less than the, interior dimension D of members 92 and 94 with suflicient thickness to offer substantial rigidity.
  • the length of members '68 and 76 indicated as L should be kept slightly less crimp ports 108 and 120 of the connector halves 102 and 112.. Because of this, dies 60 and 80 may enter opposing die ports and gripand compress the ferrule forming the pin member of a connector such as ferrule 122 of connectorhalf 112 as shown in FIGURE 4.
  • FIGURE 2 shows connector half 112 so positioned on die 80. It will be appreciated that unless half 112 is held so that the opposite port 121 is aligned with the path of travel of'the indentor die 60 and particularly the upper edge of'die portions 62 and 66 the die may catch the upper edge of port 121 as at the point X and upon further closure of the dies crush ferrule 118 and ruin the connector.
  • the width W of members 68 and 76 as shown in FIGURE 5 with respect to 68 should be long enough to offer a surface of contact with the connector ferrule 118 sufficient to prevent cocking of the connector in a verticle sense; i.e., to'hold the connector assembly in proper alignment.
  • the progressive closure of dies as shown in FIGURES 2-4 result in the rounded portion surface 74 of member 68 first engaging a line of contact with the surface of the connector ferrule 118 as indicated by C in FIGURE 2. Thereafter with further closure ferrule 118 and the connector assembly 112 will be cammed upwardly about the mechanical hinge formed at, points Y and Z. Further movement will result in ferrule 118 being contacted at an upper point C by the rounded surface 72 of member 76. As, the dies are driven in further closure the connector ferrule '1
  • the ports 120 and 121 being aligned will permit further closure of the die members with an unimpeded entry of-indentor die 60 into port 121.
  • Final closure of the die members as shown in FIGURE 4 may thereafter be accomplished with the central ferrule 122'being compressed in against the center conductor 1-26 to complete the crimping operation.
  • the other dies 142, 144, 152, 154 will simultaneously operate on ferrules 116 and 114 respectively of the connector half '112 to complete the crimping operation.
  • the operation of the flange members 68 and 76 obviates the need to manually or otherwise attempt to hold the connector assembly being crimped in a position so that the cooperating dies will properly enter crimp ports 120 and 121.
  • FIG. 7 shows flange members incorporated into the indentor dies.
  • FIGURES 7, 8 and 9 is for use with existing tooling as an attachment theerto.
  • the hand tool including handles it) and 12, jaws 24 and 26' and etc. operates identically to the tool shown in FIGURE 1 the difference residing in the addition of a member 180 and in the die member 160.
  • the indentor dies 150 and 168 have die surfaces identical to the die surfaces heretofore shown and described but without flange members integrally formed therewith.
  • each die 16% and 168 includes indentor dies 166 and 174 corresponding to indentor dies 69 and Silt of the embodiment of FIGURES 1-5.
