DEVICE TO LOOSEN AND EXTRACT A MULTICONDUCTOR CABLE FROM A CASING

摘要

A tool for removing from a housing a tri-lead cable having an end terminal removably retained in the housing and having a portion covered by an encapsulating film which extends partially into the housing. The tool comprises a hollow elongated body member having a spring-biased plunger mounted therein. A spring hook blade is attached to the plunger and extends out an open end of the body member. The spring blade is adapted to be inserted in between the housing and the encapsulating film to hook onto an edge of the film. Grasping means are provided on the body member for compressing the spring-biased plunger to retract the spring hook blade and remove the hooked tri-lead cable from the housing.
