The piercing connector coloring device is installed on the piercing terminal output end, and automatically colors the completed crimping piercing connector 5 during the process of pushing out the completed crimping piercing connector 5.

[0027] The utility model will be further described below in combination with the drawings (hereinafter described in the following Figure 1 The left and right directions are described as the left and right directions).

[0028] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the piercing connector coloring device comprises a lower support 2 and an upper clamping seat 1 installed on the top of the lower support 2.

[0029] The lower support 2 comprises a positioning and installing structure matched with the terminal input and output guide 4, and the lower support 2 can be fixedly installed on the left side or right side of the piercing terminal output end of the terminal input and output guide 4 through the positioning and installing structure. The positioning and installing structure can be a positioning and installing structure installed by fitting and fixed by bolts; the positioning and installing structure can also be a positioning and installing structure installed by half-enclosing slot clamping and fixed by positioning top wire III 21 as shown in the drawings. Figure 1

[0030] The upper clamping seat 1 is provided with a paint pen clamping base 11 and a paint pen positioning and clamping mechanism 12, the vertically arranged paint pen 3 is detachably positioned and installed on the paint pen clamping base 11 through the paint pen positioning and clamping mechanism 12, and the coloring pen tip at the bottom end of the paint pen 3 corresponds to the terminal input and output guide 4. The paint pen positioning and clamping mechanism 12 can be a positioning and clamping mechanism as shown in the drawings. Figure 4 ​The plate clamping structure shown includes a positioning clamping plate 121 and a positioning screw 122. The positioning screw 122 passes through the positioning clamping plate 121 and is threadedly connected to the paint pen clamping base 11. By tightening (or loosening) the positioning screw 122, the positioning clamping plate 121 moves closer to (or further away from) the paint pen clamping base 11, thereby clamping (or releasing) the paint pen 3. To achieve flexible clamping and avoid damage to the paint pen 3 by the positioning clamping plate 121, a compression spring is provided between the positioning clamping plate 121 and the positioning screw 122, or between the positioning clamping plate 121 and the paint pen clamping base 11. The paint pen positioning clamping mechanism 12 can also be as follows: Figure 5 The positioning clip 123, which is hinged to the paint pen holder base 11, and the torsion spring, which is set at the hinged mounting position between the paint pen holder base 11 and the positioning clip 123, are clip-type structures. One torsion arm of the torsion spring is fixedly connected to the paint pen holder base 11, and the other torsion arm is fixedly connected to the positioning clip 123. By bending the positioning clip 123, it can overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring and swing open. After the paint pen 3 is inserted, the positioning clip 123 can clamp the paint pen 3 through the restoring elastic force of the torsion spring.

[0031] When using this piercing connector coloring device, if Figure 6 As shown, the piercing connector 5 is fixedly installed on the side of the piercing terminal output end of the terminal input / output guide 4 via the lower support 2. The downward extension distance of the paint pen 3 is adjusted, and the paint pen 3 is positioned and clamped on the paint pen clamping base 11 via the paint pen positioning and clamping mechanism 12. Then, the piercing connector 5 can be crimped using the piercing terminal crimping machine. The operator pushes the uncrimped piercing connector 5 into the input end of the piercing terminal after the piercing needle has inserted into the wire. After crimping is completed at the crimping station, the crimped connector 5 is pushed out from the output end of the piercing terminal. During the pushing process, if... Figure 7 As shown, the crimped piercing connector 5 is colored by the paint pen 3 as it moves and passes through the paint pen 3, and is discharged through the piercing terminal output end.

[0032] To increase versatility, as a further improvement of this utility model, the upper clamping seat 1 is detachably mounted on the top of the lower support 2, and a guide positioning mechanism I is provided between the upper clamping seat 1 and the lower support 2, which is arranged in the left-right direction. This allows for the replacement of the terminal input / output guide 4 and the lower support 2 according to different sizes of piercing connectors. Furthermore, the guide positioning mechanism I can be used to adjust the position of the upper clamping seat 1 relative to the lower support 2 in the left-right direction to adjust the coating position. The guide positioning mechanism I can be as follows: Figure 2 , Figure 3The dovetail groove structure and the positioning set screw I13 set on the dovetail groove structure are shown. The positioning of the upper clamping seat 1 relative to the lower support 2 is achieved by tightening the positioning set screw I13. The guide positioning mechanism I can also be a screw and nut structure with a self-locking T-shaped thread. The positioning of the upper clamping seat 1 relative to the lower support 2 is achieved by controlling the self-locking position of the nut relative to the screw.

[0033] To facilitate fine-tuning of the vertical positioning of the paint pen 3 and thus ensure effective color application, as a further improvement of this utility model, a guide positioning mechanism II is provided between the paint pen holder base 11 and the upper holder 1, which is vertically oriented. The guide positioning mechanism II can be used to adjust the vertical position of the paint pen holder base 11 relative to the upper holder 1, thereby facilitating fine-tuning of the vertical positioning of the paint pen 3. Similar to the guide positioning mechanism I, the guide positioning mechanism II can be as follows: Figure 4 , Figure 5 The dovetail groove structure and the positioning screw II (not shown in the figure) provided on the dovetail groove structure are used to position the paint pen holder 11 relative to the upper holder 1 by tightening the positioning screw II; the guide positioning mechanism II can also be a screw and nut structure with a self-locking T-shaped thread, which is used to position the paint pen holder 11 relative to the upper holder 1 by controlling the self-locking position of the nut relative to the screw.

[0034] To achieve a more stable clamping and positioning effect for the paint pen 3, as a further improvement of this utility model, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the paint pen holder base 11 is provided with a V-shaped positioning groove that cooperates with the paint pen 3. The paint pen 3 can be inserted into the V-shaped positioning groove to achieve stable positioning.
