ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a crimping die (12,14,16,18) and a crimping tool (2) comprising at least three crimping dies (12,14,16,18) that are guided for displacement in the crimping tool (2), where each of the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) have a respective crimping surface (42,44,46,48) and a respective sliding surface (50,52,54,56), where the crimping surfaces (42,44,46,48) together form a crimping opening (36), said crimping surface (42,44,46,48) of each crimping die (12,14,16,18) slidably abutting said sliding surface (50,52,54,56), of an adjacent die, where the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) have pivot points (29,31,33,35) that are arranged movable relative to the body of the crimping tool (2) and where a linkage (11) is arranged to guide the movement of the pivot points (29,31,33,35) of the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) relative to the body (4) of the crimping tool (2) producing a movement between the pivot points (29,31,33,35) of the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) and the body (4) of the crimping tool (2), and where the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) have tooth flanks (66,68) arranged to cooperate with tooth flanks (60,62) in the body (4) of the crimping tool (2), whereby the crimping surfaces (42,44,46,48) of the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) are arranged to act on the workpiece (19) to be crimped without the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) sliding on the surface of the body (4) of the tool (2) thereby decreasing the wear between the crimping dies (12,14,16,18) and the body (4) of the tool (2.
