Definitions

  • the invention relates to a crimping machine to crimp electrical terminals on wires with the movable die member moving a section of the feeding mechanism away from the crimping area to permit a leg of the movable die member to move between a terminal sheared from a strip of terminals and the strip of terminals to perform a crimping operation without engagement with the terminal strip carried by the movable section of the feeding mechanism.
  • This invention relates to applicators and more particularly to applicator means for crimping electrical connectors onto electrical wires.
  • apparatus comprising a crimp ing anvil, a crimping die having a crimping recess defined by leg portions of the die, mechanism for feeding a strip of electrical connectors in side-by-side strip form between the die and the anvil to be crimped therebetween, mechanism for bringing about relative movement between the die and the anvil to cause a connector therebetween to be crimped to the wire between the anvil and the recess walls, and a shearing device for severing the connector between the die and the anvil from the strip.
  • the metal slugs separating the connectors should be short.
  • leg portions Since, however, one of the leg portions must be passed between two connectors of the strip during the crimping operation, it is necessary according to known practice to make this one leg portion sufficiently thin to pass between the two connectors, in which case the leg portion may be undesirably weak, or to make the spacing between the connectors sufficient to avoid this disadvantage.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a crimping applicator for crimping electrical connectors onto wires having means to move a strip of connectors away from a crimping area to permit a leg of a crimping die to pass between a severed connector to be crimped in the crimping area and the strip of connectors.
  • Another object of the invention is the provision of holding means to hold a severed connector in a crimping area of a crimping applicator while a strip of connectors from which the severed connector is severed is moved away from the crimping area.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide moving means on crimping die means of a crimping applicator to move a strip of connectors away from a crimping area during a crimping operation on a connector severed from the strip of connectors.
  • Apparatus comprises a mechanism for holding the connector in position for crimping between the die and the anvil, a mechanism for withdrawing the strip of connectors from the die and anvil after the operation of the shearing device, each connector being held, during the relative movement, in position for crimping relative to the die and the anvil by the holding mechanism, the strip being withdrawn by the withdrawing mechanism after the connector has been severed from the strip to allow one of the leg portions of the die to pass between the severed connector and the strip so as to permit the anvil to be received in the recess of the die.
  • the strip may conveniently be fed across a flat plate which is moved relative to the die and anvil by a cam surface movable with the crimping die.

  • Each connector 42 is joined to the next adjacent connector or connectors by a metal slug 45.
  • the strip is in ladder, or side-by-side form, the longitudinal axes of the crimping ferrules 43 and 44 being parallel to one another.
  • the strip which will in practice comprise many hundred connectors, is wound upon a freely rotatable spool (not shown).
  • the free end of the strip is led along the plate 2 between the guides 6 and 6 and under the pad 7 (with the aid of the handle so that the leading connector of the strip lies with its ferrules 43 and 44 upon the respective anvils 21 and 19, the penultimate connector of the strip lying with its ferrules 43 and 44 on the respective anvils 22 and 20.
  • the strip is held firmly in position between the guides 6 and 6' by the pressure pad 7 under the action of the springs 9 and 10, the Working tip 13' of the feed finger 13 engaging a longitudinal edge of one of the connectors 42.
  • Insulated twin-wire comprises two parallel plastic insulated wires, the insulation of the two wires being formed integrally so that the wires are joined along their adjacent sides.
  • a pedal not shown
  • the plate 35 engages the leading and penultimate connectors of the strip and the blades 33 and 34 shear out the slug 45 from between the leading and penultimate connectors and from between the penultimate connector and the next preceding connector, in co-operation with the longitudinal edges of the respective recesses and 26.
  • the blades 33 and 34 penetraie progressively intothc recesses 25 and 26, and the spring 36 is progressively compressed.
  • the plate 35 serves to hold the leading and penultimate connectors 42 in position to maintain their ferrules 43 and 44 on the respective anvils after these connectors have been freed from the strip by the blades 33 and 34.
  • the cam surface 40 of the cam 38 engages the surface 41 of the plate 2 so that the plate 2 is moved rightwardly (as seen in FIGURES 1 and 2) against the action of the springs 3 until the surfaces 40 and 41 are in full engagement with one another.
  • the strip of connectors on the plate 2 is accordingly moved away from the connectors on the anvils so that towards the end of the working stroke of the ram, the leg 32 of the crimping die 28 can pass between the severed penultimate connector and the aforementioned next preceding connector which remains on the plate 2.
  • the ferrules are crimped to the wire ends by co-operation between the die 28 and the anvils which are received in the recesses 29 so that the ferrules are compressed between the recess walls and the working surfaces of the anvils.
  • the crimping operation begins as the plate 2 starts to move away from the assembly 4 and ends when the plate 2 has been fully displaced.
  • the ram assembly 27 then auiomatically carries out a return stroke to resume the position in which it is shown in FIGURE 1.
  • the piston rod of the motor 14 is advanced during the return stroke of the assembly 27, when the plate 2 has resumed its initial posi.ion under the action of the springs 3, so that the feed finger moves the strip of connectors on the plate 2 leftwardly (as seen in FIGURES 1 and 2) to advance two further connectors into position, for crimping on the anvils.
  • the feed finger 13 is driven through a return stroke by the motor 14 as the ram assembly begins to descend at the beginning of its next working stroke. As the finger 13 returns the working tip 13 is cammed over the connectors of the strip against the action of the spring of the finger 13.
  • this arm 32 may be sufficiently broad to ensure that the arm 32 does not fracture as a result of the crimping forces which are directed laterally of the arm 32.
  • the arm 31 may be less broad than either the arm 30 or the arm 32, since the arm 31 is subjected to equal and oppositely directed lateral crimping forces.
  • the invention has been described above in its application to apparatus for crimping the connectors simultaneously, the invention can also be applied with advantage where only one connector is to be crimped.
  • the present invention is, however, of particular advantage where the apparatus is arranged to crimp two connectors simultaneously, because the distance between the anvils and thus the widths of the anvil assembly is determined by the distance between the individual connectors of the strip.
