ABSTRACT:
The assembly guiding apparatus for wiring harness subassemblies facilitates assembly work by indicating the connector to be used and displaying the terminal insertion position in the connector. The apparatus comprises: a plurality of connector boxes 3 containing connectors, each of which is provided with an indicator lamp 4 and a light interception sensor 5 facing a connector pick-up opening 14; an incrementing sensor 8 installed on the pick-up side of terminated wires 7 that are arranged in line on a wire supporting device 6; an indicator 10 that indicates with light a contour of the connector 2 and positions of terminal accommodating chambers in the connector 2; and a controller 13 incorporating a CPU and a memory, both connected to the indicator lamp, the light interception sensor, the incrementing sensor and the indicator. The apparatus also includes: a count means linked to the incrementing sensor to detect the number of remaining terminal accommodating chambers in the connector, or the sum of the number of all terminals in the wiring harness subassembly and the number of all connectors; a count means that is activated when the number of remaining terminal accommodating chambers is one; and a reset means which is activated when the total sum is counted up.
