Title: Apparatus for and method of crimping an electrical connector to a wire
IPC: H01R43/042
Filed: 1965-03-03
Abstract: 1,043,653. Crimping pliers. AMP Inc. March 3, 1965 [March 11, 1964], No. 9020/65. Heading B4W. [Also in Division H2] In a tool for crimping an electrical connector defining a channel to a wire, a crimping die having a die cavity comprising a trough adapted to bend the side walls of the connector towards each other, the crimping die and an anvil being relatively movable towards one another, a shearing member is provided which is movable laterally of the axis of the trough and is adapted to trim the projecting ends of wires positioned in the cavity within the crimping die as the die is moved towards the connector and anvil to position the trimmed ends of the wires in the channel and to crimp the connector to the wires. An anvil block 40 carrying an integral projection 42 is secured in a recess 38 in the upper arm 36 of the C- shaped head of the tool. The anvil 42 cooperates with a crimping die assembly comprising a central die 52 and outer dies 54, 56 the dies 54, 56 being formed integrally with the die block 62 which is slidable in the head and secured to a reciprocable ram 30 which is advanced by a linkage on closure of the handles 20, 22 of the tool. The die 52 has a depending arm 76 which is slidable in a central groove 78 in the block 62, the die 52 being normally biased upwardly beyond the blocks 54, 56 by a spring 80. A pin 81 on the left-hand side of the die 52 extends laterally beyond the C-shaped head 32 for manual adjustment of the die 52 to allow the trough-like recesses in the dies 54, 56 to co-operate with the recess in die 52 so that an uncrimped connector may be positioned in the tool. A stop plate 84 prevents upward movement of the die 52 beyond the position seen in Fig. 8. The edges 94, 96 of the sides 73, 75 of the dies 54, 56, Fig. 5 (not shown), co-operate with edges 101 of the die 52 to form two pairs of shearing edges the die 52 acting as a shear block. The wires 16, 16<SP>1</SP> are passed through the trough in the die 54 beneath the surface 101 of the die 52, the wires 14, 14<SP>1</SP> being passed through the trough of the die 52, the wires 14, 14<SP>1</SP> being passed through the trough of the die 56 beneath the surface of 101 of the die 52. During initial movement of the ram 30 on closing the handles 20, 22 the dies 54, 56 move upwards until the underside of the die 52 is seated on the surface 77 of the block 62 and the wires are trimmed. As the dies continue their upward movement, the stop plate 84 is moved out of engagement with the surface 83 of the die 52 by the camming pin 90 so that all three dies move as a single unit to push the trimmed ends of the wires into the channel formed by the connector and crimp the connector to the wire. For use in crimping a U-shaped ferrule on the wire the die 56 is omitted. In a modification. Fig. 10 (not shown), only two dies are provided these being normally disposed in off-set relationship and means are provided for bringing the dies into alignment and thereby trimming the ends of the wires.

Title: Improvements in or relating to control mechanism for papercutting machines
Inventor: FIELDER ERIC CHARLES WILLIAM
IPC: B26D7/01
Filed: 1962-03-09
Abstract: 961, 505. Programmed control of industrial processes. E. K. COLE Ltd. March 8, 1963 [March 9, 1962], No. 9060/62. Heading G3N. In a programme control system for a poweroperated guillotine type paper cutting machine, the paper is moved towards the cutting position by a feed screw, which simultaneously drives a tape on which is recorded cutting information. The information is represented by small magnetised areas on the tape which has two parallel tracks scanned by two sets of heads each set comprising an erase head, a slow-down head and a stop head; the distance between the slow-down and stop heads being small. The programme is recorded by setting up a sample in the guillotine and a tape in the tape transport mechanism. The sample is moved by a back fence until the first cutting position is reached and a record button is then pressed. Compensation for the over-travel of the drive motor during playback is arranged by moving the stop heads towards the slowdown heads during recording by a solenoid. During movement by the back-fence the tape is biased to saturation in one direction by a direct current during recording biased to saturation in the other direction. The programme may comprise a plurality of pairs of tracks, the three turn heads being from one to another mechanically. As shown, the replay circuit comprises erase heads A1, A; a slow-down head B and stop heads C, C1 A pulse from the slow-down head B is fed through an amplifier 1 and chipper 2 to trigger a pulse generator 3, the output of which is fed through a counter driver 4 and counter and pulse store 5 to cause the paper drive to be reduced to a slow-speed through a slow-down device 6. The tape continues moving until pulses are generated by the heads C, C1 which pass through amplifiers 7, 7a, clippers 8, 8a to trigger pulse generators 9, 9a. The output pulses from the generator are accepted by an and/or circuit 10, delivering an output if a pulse is received from 9, 9a or from both, gating a flip-flop 11 which brings the drive motor to a stop through a switch mechanism 12. The pulses from the generators 9, 9a are also fed to a coincidence gate and flip-flop 13 which operates a knife controller 14 when generator pulses are received simultaneously. A switch, not shown, operated by the knife provides a pulse in the leads 15, 16 which restores the flip flop 11 and gate 13 to their initial condition and through a counter driver 17 releases a pulse stored in the counter and pulse store 5 so that until all the stored pulses are released the paper feed will take place at a slow speed. The count in the store is dependent on the number of programmed cuts occurring within the spacing of the slow-down head B and stop heads C, C1.
