ABSTRACT:
A crimping tool is provided for feeding and crimping wire terminals, removably secured to a storage belt. A crimping projection is provided on an upper jaw and a receiving body including a plurality of receiving cavities is rotatably mounted on a lower jaw. The projection is received by one of the cavities as the upper jaw moves toward the lower jaw. A ratchet wheel including a plurality of teeth is coaxially mounted on the receiving body and rotatable therewith. A first spring is mounted in said upper jaw so as to engage the teeth of the ratchet wheel. The movement of the upper jaw and spring away from the lower jaw rotates the receiving body in a first direction. A second spring is mounted on said lower jaw so as to engage the ratchet teeth and prevent rotation of the receiving body in a direction counter to the first direction. A retaining mechanism retains the belt of the workpiece so that a portion of the workpiece to be crimped is retained in the receiving cavity, and a receiving case is mounted on the lower jaw for storing the belt of workpieces. The movement of the upper jaw toward the lower jaw causes the crimping projection to be received by the receiving cavity so as to crimp the portion of the workpiece received in the cavity. The movement of the upper jaw away from the lower jaw causes the receiving body to rotate so as to index an adjacent cavity with a workpiece received therein, into position preparatory to being crimped.
