MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR TERMINAL-EQUIPPED ELECTRIC WIRE, AND TERMINAL-EQUIPPED ELECTRIC WIRE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18503053 titled 'MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR TERMINAL-EQUIPPED ELECTRIC WIRE, AND TERMINAL-EQUIPPED ELECTRIC WIRE

Simplified Explanation

The manufacturing method for a terminal-equipped electric wire involves inserting a core wire and crimping it using a caulking die with a caulking convex part.

  • The caulking convex part protrudes from the die main body towards the core wire crimp part.
  • The caulking convex part has a rectangular cross-section and a length at least twice the thickness of the core wire crimp part.
  • The core wire crimp part is pressed by the die main body to form a caulking region during the crimping step.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in the manufacturing of various terminal-equipped electric wires used in electronics, automotive, and other industries.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures secure and reliable connection between the core wire and terminal. 2. Improves the efficiency and accuracy of the crimping process.

Benefits

Original Abstract Submitted

A manufacturing method for a terminal-equipped electric wire includes a core wire inserting step S and a crimping step S A die main body of a caulking die includes a caulking convex part. The caulking convex part is provided protruding from a pressing surface of the die main body toward a core wire crimp part, has a rectangular cross section along an axial direction, and has a length in the axial direction twice or more the thickness of the thickness of the core wire crimp part before crimping. Using such a caulking die, at the crimping step, the core wire crimp part into which a core wire is inserted at the core wire inserting step is pressed by the pressing surface of the die main body to form a caulking region.
