WIRE HOLDER AND METHOD OF TERMINATING WIRE CONDUCTORS

摘要

A wire holder for managing and aligning wires to corresponding traces in a PCB. The wire holder assists in the manufacturing process of cables and connectors, and especially during the welding process by minimizing the amount of time spent by users manually adjusting the wire positions. The wire holder includes a shaft having a plurality of teeth and claws forming a plurality of comb openings that may either be open so wires can be inserted sideways or closed so wires must be inserted into the comb openings. The plurality of wires are collected into the wire holder and the wire holder is subsequently aligned with the corresponding traces on the PCB prior to the welding of the wires. The wire holder may align wires for double sided PCBs.
