Tool for connecting cable conductors

Abstract

A tool for connecting cable cores to insulating perforated contact elements has a ram which projects through an opening in the end face of the tool housing, the ram being arranged longitudinally movably in the tool housing, the ram being formed with a ram knife holder, the cable core wires can be pressed into the insulating through-hole contact elements through the ram tool holder, the shape of the ram tool holder is such that at least two cable core wires can be simultaneously pressed into at least two insulating through-hole contact elements arranged close to each other, And there is a cutter arranged on the ram knife holder for cutting the cable core wire. The longitudinal movement of the ram is used to trigger the cutting operation. The cutter includes two relatively movable shear blades, which are relatively movable around a common axis. Pivotably mounted to each other, one of them has at least one shearing surface and the other has at least two shearing surfaces, and the portion of the ram extending from the tool housing includes a ram tool holder and a ram handle, wherein , the ram handle is at least as long as the ram tool holder.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tool for connecting cable cores, in particular insulated telecommunication and data synchronization transmission cables, with insulated perforated contact elements. Background technique [0002] EP0040307B1 discloses a tool for connecting insulated electrical conductors. The tool consists of a hollow double-shell clamp in which is arranged a striking mechanism with a spring-loaded hollow slide and a ram capable of moving longitudinally against the force of the spring. A wire cutter is arranged on the ram portion extending from the front end of the ram head on the jig, the wire cutter includes two shearing legs, one pivotable and located at the rear inside the jig The end has an inclined longitudinal slot in which a pin fastened to the clamp is guided. Thus, longitudinal movement of the ram results in pivoting of the movable shearing leg. In order to connect the insulated cable cores to the insulating perforated contact ele...

Problems solved by technology

However, on the one hand, this means additional work for the installation engineer, and on the other hand, it does not correspond to the procedures required from safety considerations

Moreover, the reinstallation of the safety connector may be forgotten

When the space conditions on the terminal strip are reduced, the optimization of the tools for connecting the cable cores to the insulating piercing contact elements creates problems, which have hitherto not been satisfactorily solved by conventional methods and devices known in the prior art the solution
