<p>The present invention relates to apparatus for stripping the insulation from the end of an insulated conductor, Most of the prior art machines for stripping insulation are mechanically complex and are expensive to manufacture and maintain. The apparatus of the present invention is relatively simple in structure and comprises two support members each of which carries an insulation-cutting knife and means to grip the conductor; a first cam means which moves one of the support members from an open conductor-receiving position to a closed insulation-piercing and conductor-gripping position; a second cam means which acts to displace the conductor along its longitudinal axis to thereby strip the insulation from the end of the conductor and position it for the termination operation; means for adjusting the movable support member to accommodate conductors of varying diameters; means for adjusting the displacement of the stripped conductor to properly position it for the termination operation; and means to actuate the first and second cam means in a predetermined operating sequence.</p> |
