Title:
APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING WIRE CONNECTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS59138015
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Programmable apparatus makes finished wire harnesses or sub-assemblies therefor from segments of insulated wire which may differ in length, gauge or insulation color. The apparatus includes a selector module which draws wire strands from a plurality of wire coils and presents them in a desired sequence to a wire loader module which then feeds a desired length of each strand to a conveyor end and then severs it. The conveyor comprises two laterally spaced conveyor units, having a releasable wire guide therebetween, which releasably grip each wire segment near its opposite ends. Stripper modules and terminal presses alongside the two conveyor units enable selective stripping and terminal attachment at either or both segment ends. A wire double associated with a conveyor unit is selectively operable to group the ends of two or more segments in that conveyor unit so that a single terminal can be attached thereto. A block loader module associated with a conveyor unit is operable to insert stripped ends or terminated ends (single or multiple) of wire segments into apertured insulated terminal blocks.
