Terminal crimping machine, applicator for the same, terminal crimping method, and manufacturing method of terminal crimping wire

Abstract

The present invention relates to a terminal crimping machine, an applicator for the same, a terminal crimping method, and a manufacturing method of a terminal crimping wire. The present invention provides an applicator for a terminal crimping machine, being less likely to generate friction debris of a chain terminal carrier and having a stable braking action. An applicator AP (FIG. 11) includes aterminal transmission mechanism 200 for transmitting a chain terminal RT, a crimper 115 for crimping a terminal T to the end of a wire, and the like. A terminal braking mechanism 30 of the terminal transmission mechanism 200 is provided with a roller 33 pressed against a chain terminal carrier portion C, a rotation center shaft 35 of the roller 33, and a pressing mechanism 31 237 for applying a pressing force to the roller 33 through the shaft 35.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a terminal crimping machine and the like for crimping a terminal to an end of a stripped electric wire. In particular, it relates to a terminal crimping machine, etc., which improves the brake mechanism for transporting the chain terminal, does not easily generate "friction debris" of the chain terminal carrier and is easy to stabilize the braking force. It also relates to a crimping machine that is improved to easily position the end of the stripped wire in the center of the crimping machine. Background technique [0002] A terminal crimping machine for crimping a terminal to an end portion of an electric wire from which the coating layer is stripped is widely used in the process of manufacturing wire harnesses for automobiles and electrical equipment. In the terminal crimping machine, while conveying a chain terminal (also called a terminal strip) formed by arranging a plurality of terminals in a strip shape, the terminal...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the load on the claws for conveying terminals is heavy, and adjustment of the conveying position and replacement of parts are required due to wear of the claw tips, etc.

[0027] (3) When the chain terminal is excessively conveyed, it is difficult to make the carrier overcome the friction force of the brake plate and return to the opposite direction of the conveying direction

Therefore, it is difficult to fully exert the effect of automatically centering the center of the terminal on the center of the crimping machine when crimping with a crimping device or an anvil's pressing part (knife part).
