Patent ID: 8870052

Claim:
A method for welding insulated cables made from metal strands or cores to form an end node or transit node, the method comprising: stripping insulation from a first section of each cable, introducing the stripped first section of each cable into a compression space of an ultrasound welding device, said compression space, having a longitudinal axis, is adjustable in terms of height and width, and in which each first section extends along a straight line running in a direction of the longitudinal axis, wherein at least one cable comprises, spaced from the end node or transit node to be welded, a component, and at least the cable comprising the component, between the compression space and the component in a second section, is inserted between at least one pressure piece and one counter piece of a damping device, wherein during the insertion, the at least one pressure piece and said one counter piece are spaced to each other in such a way, that the second section runs along the straight line, closing the compression space and adjusting the at least one pressure piece and/or the at least one counter piece in such a way, that an arc- or curve shaped course is forced on the second section in region of the damping device without an essential deflection of an end section of the cable comprising the component, and welding the first sections to form the end node or transit node.
