Abstract:
A wiring-harness includes an electrical-connector and a staging-device. The staging-device has a cavity defining a flexible-member in compressive contact with the electrical-connector. The flexible-member is configured to removably retain the electrical-connector within the cavity. The cavity locates the electrical-connector in a predetermined-position within the staging-device, such that the electrical-connector is presented to an assembler in the predetermined-position. The staging-device is particularly useful in automated, i.e. robotic, installation of the wiring-harness.

Claim (Index 13):
A staging-device configured to retain at least one electrical-connector of a wiring-harness, the staging-device comprising:\n a staging-device-body defining at least one cavity; and at least one flexible-member configured to be in compressive contact with the at least one electrical-connector when inserted within the at least one cavity;\n the at least one flexible-member configured to removably retain the at least one electrical-connector within the at least one cavity; \n the staging-device-body configured to locate the at least one electrical-connector in a predetermined-position within the at least one cavity such that the at least one electrical-connector is presented to an assembler in the predetermined-position; wherein \n the at least one flexible-member is arranged on a quarter-round ribbed-spacer.
