ABSTRACT:
A terminal insertion apparatus includes a terminal insertion head having a pair of wire catching hands and a terminal guiding piece and being movable along a Y-axis beam by servo drive, a high speed transfer belt having an electric wire clamp and being movable in the X-axis direction by servo drive, and a terminal posture correcting device having a pair of chuck pieces for chucking the terminal of a terminal end on the wire clamp and delivering it to the wire catching hands and a terminal holder and being movable by servo drive in a direction in parallel to that of the high speed transfer belt. Using the terminal insertion apparatus, the posture of the terminal is corrected two-dimensionally, and the terminal is inserted into a connector housing along the terminal guide pieces. The chuck pieces which is apart from a terminal at a certain position advances to pass the terminal therebetween, chuck the terminal, and retreat to cause the terminal to abut on a terminal stopping step. The terminal holder advances to abut on the terminal. In order that the terminal hits on the center of a guide face, the terminal is held in its inclined state, or the height of an insertion head is adjusted. Thus, the posture of the terminal can be surely corrected and the terminal can be surely inserted into a connector.
