ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for cutting and holding a piece of wire cord. The apparatus comprises a conveyor which includes a plurality of plates for movement in a first direction and a plurality of holding blocks wherein each of the holding blocks is mounted on a corresponding one of the plates. Each of the holding blocks has a fixed portion and a slidable holder portion, the slidable holder portion being slidable relative to the fixed portion. An advancing device advances the cord a predetermined length in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, and a cutter is positioned downstream of the advancing device for cutting the wire cord into cut portions of the predetermined length. A loading device is positioned downstream of the cutter and is operatively coupled thereto for engaging a holder portion of one of the holding blocks to prevent the movement of the holder portion in the first direction, while the fixed portion is moved in the first direction to thereby cause a relative sliding movement between the holder portion and the fixed portion. This forms a space between two adjacent holding blocks having a width at least as great as the width of the wire cord. The loading device pushes the cut cord into the space and releases the holder portion such that the holder portion slides in the first direction whereby the cut wire cord is held between the holder portion of one of the holding blocks and the fixed portion of an adjacent holding block.
