Method of manufacturing a wire harness

摘要

Cylinders (7,57) are arranged in such a manner that they correspond to a plurality of pressure-blades (2,52) by one-to-one, and desired pressure-blades are pushed downward by the corresponding cylinder rods, so that the desired pressure-blades are protruded from and fixed at the lower ends of the residual pressure-blades. The thus arranged pressure-blades are lowered with respect to the connector (C). Then, only the pressure-blades protruding from the lower ends of the other pressure-blades can conduct the operation of pressure-connection. Due to the foregoing, after the electrical wires (F) have been connected to the pressure-terminals (T) of one connector (C) all at once, in the pressure-connecting process of the other connector, only when the desired pressure-blades are selected and the selected pressure-blades are moved along the arrangement of the pressure terminals of the other connector, the wire harness of cross-wiring can be manufactured. Therefore, it is not necessary to frequently move the pressure-blades between the connectors.
