ABSTRACT:
A wire stripper provides for one-hand thermal-stripping of thermoplastic insulation from wire in a substantial range of wire sizes without need for adjustment or alternation in manipulation of the wire relative to the stripper or of the stripper relative to the wire. The stripping operation requires merely insertion of a free-end of thermoplastic-insulated wire in the larger end of a teardrop-shaped slot in a flat conductive strip tensioned between electrodes passing current through the strip, then withdrawing the free end of wire out of the slot in a direction wedging the insulation in the smaller end of the slot as the wire is withdrawn from it, either with or without a twist of the free end. A novel electrode mount both maintains tension on the flat conductive strip when it is heated and serves as closure of a box that holds the current transformer supplying the electrodes.
