摘要： Apparatus for orienting elongate bodies, for example electrical connectors, comprises magazines for containing vertical stacks of the elongate bodies, escapement slides for releasing one body at a time from each magazine, as required, first and second slidable traps mounted beneath the escapement slides and having an advanced, body supporting position and a retracted body release position, and guide surfaces on the escapement slides for guiding each body as it falls from a magazine, so that it lies across both of the traps when they are in their body supporting position. A pair of receptacles are slidably mounted on a carriage beneath the traps so that either of these receptacles can be positioned to receive a body released by the traps. If one trap is first retracted, the body will fall into the receptacle in one vertical orientation and if the other trap is first retracted, the body will fall into the receptacle in the opposite vertical orientation. The bodies may be stacked in the magazines so that in one of them the bodies are in one endwise orientation and in the other the bodies are in the opposite endwise orientation.

摘要： Electrical cable assemblies formed by joining two halves or sections with each section having grooves extending from end to end and outwardly projecting ribs alongside the grooves with the grooves and ribs on one section being laterally shifted relative to the other section so that when the sections are brought together, the ribs enter facing grooves on the opposing sections to cooperatively form passageways for electrical contacts positioned in the grooves. A fixture useful in assemblying the electrical members and a method are also disclosed.

摘要： Harness-making machine has a connector installing station, a staging zone adjacent to the installing station for holding a stack of connectors, and a cable dispensing or feeding unit adjacent to the staging zone. Cable is fed from the feeding unit through the staging zone to the installing station at which the leading connector on the stack is installed on the cable. The dispensing unit has a cable guide which extends through the staging zone to the installing station thereby to protect the cable from the terminals which extend from the connectors contained in the staging zone. This guide thereby prevents jamming of the machine which can occur if cable movement through the staging zone is impeded by the terminals.

摘要： Insertion/extraction tool for inserting a substrate into, and extracting a substrate from, a socket assembly has a frame assembly containing force multiplying means and a yoke. Spaced-apart yoke arms extend from the yoke and have ends which will engage either the socket assembly or the underside of the substrate. First frame arms are fixed to the frame and have ends which are spaced from the ends of the yoke arms. Second frame arms are slidably mounted on the frame assembly for movement between extended positions and retracted positions. When inserting the substrate, the yoke arms are located between the underside of the socket and the surface of the circuit board on which the socket is mounted. The frame is moved towards the end of the yoke arms so that the first frame arms push the substrate into assembled relationship with the socket. When the tool is used for extraction, the second frame arms are moved to their extended positions and are located on the surface of the circuit board. The end of the yoke arms are positioned between the underside of the substrate and the upper surface of the socket assembly, The yoke is then moved upwardly by the force applying means and away from the circuit board so that the yoke arms pull the substrate upwardly and from the socket assembly.

摘要： Apparatus for connecting individual wires to contact terminals contained in an insulating connector housing has a first wire insertion zone in which there is located a connector locator. The individual wires are fed from reels to the wire insertion zone and the ends of the wires are inserted into the terminals by individual inserters. The connector is thereafter moved away from the insertion zone and wire is withdrawn from the spools or reels. During movement of the connector, the wires are cut to produce a harness assembly. The apparatus also has a second insertion zone and a second connector locator therein. The apparatus can be operated in a mode such that a second connector is applied to the harness wires after the first connector has been moved away from the first insertion zone.

摘要： Apparatus (26) for taping bundles of wires (4) into compact sheaves (8) comprises first and second bundling rolls (28, 30) having cylindrical surfaces (36, 38) which are in contact in a nip zone (40). First and second tapes (42, 46) are fed towards the rolls on one side of the nip zone and extend through the nip zone. Wires (4) are presented to the rolls on the one side (52) and passed through the nip zone during rotation of the rolls (28, 30). Tape is applied to each bundle from opposite sides of the bundle. On the other side (54) of the nip zone the tape is cut between adjacent bundles by knives (60) on a cutting wheel (56). A plurality of taping devices (26) can be provided on a harness making machine (12) so that the completed harnesses (2) are taped at several locations (10) along their lengths.
