ABSTRACT:
Wire stripping apparatus is described (FIG. 1) in which movement of a lever handle 18 towards a second handle 12 causes an actuator plate 50 to shift laterally so as to cam displace gripping jaw 14 towards the second gripping jaw 10. Cutting jaws 28 30 are provided between the gripping jaws to penetrate the sheath of the cable. When the cable is firmly gripped and the sheath penetrated, the vectorial force applied by the inclined link 54 displaces the actuator axially (arrow B) to move the cutting jaws relative to the gripping jaws and strip the severed portion of the sheath along the core of the cable. The actuator undergoes a complex lateral and axial movement dependent upon the parameters of the cable being treated and by virtue of the triangular slot 56 in the actuator thus enabling the extent of lateral movement before commencement of axial movement to vary according to the cable.
