UN APARATO PARA INSTALAR CONECTADORES ELECTRICOS EN CABLES PLANOS

摘要

Apparatus for installing connectors on flat cables comprises an applicator having an application zone and a staging zone which is adjacent to the application zone. A turntable is provided in the staging zone which has a connector-receiving recess. Connectors are delivered to the recess and the turntable is rotated to align the connector with a guide track that extends to the application zone. Connectors can be selectively aligned in either of two possible orientations. The connectors are attached to an endless belt which is advanced during each cycle to deliver connectors to the turntable.
