ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for fitting of grommets onto ends of electric cables. The shape of the grommet is independent of the manner in which it is fitted, by which it is pushed onto an electrical cable, and the characteristics of the electrical cable is not important for the exact positioning of the grommet. For this purpose, a conveying rail of a feed apparatus includes a buffer, in which the grommets are stored in correct position. In alignment with the axis of a vertical bore arranged below the first grommet in the buffer, a singling cylinder with a punch, which is movable up and down, is arranged above the conveying rail and a pivotable fitting cylinder with a grommet-receiving part positioned on a piston rod is arranged beneath the conveying rail, wherein the grommet is pushed by means of the punch through the vertical bore into the grommet-receiving part and the fitting cylinder is pivoted into a horizontal position. Pivotable gripper elements thereafter surround and hold the grommet-receiving part and are moved together with the piston rod against the cable, while the grommet is pushed onto the cable and its position thereon is assisted by an excess pressure that builds up in the grommet-receiving part.
