ABSTRACT:
A termination apparatus for electrical connectors, which includes an improved apparatus for applying operating forces from an apparatus operator to rotatable insertion arms, is provided for use in inserting a plurality of insulated conductors into respective insulation piercing contact portions of an electrical connector. The disclosed apparatus includes a frame, a removable support structure for a connector, which aligns the insulated conductors adjacent respective insulation-piercing contact portions of the connector, a pair of oppositely disposed insertion tools that are rotatably mounted on the frame for movement toward and away from each other and that carry insertion tools for inserting the insulated conductors into the connector, and an assembly that more effectively applies and distributes operating forces to the insertion arms during a termination cycle. The disclosed assembly for applying and distributing operating forces includes a removable and independently positionable handle structure that is releasably secured to and imparts rotational motion to a rotatable camming shaft carried by the frame. A spiral groove is provided in the rotatably camming shaft which engages and defines a predetermined path of travel for camming rollers carried by each of the insertion arms.
