ABSTRACT:
A wire stuffer mechanism removes wires successively from a jig at a first operating station (e.g. terminating) and then transfers them to a second station (e.g. contact inserting) spaced from the first station. The jig is annular and has closely spaced wire locating slots on one side. The transfer mechanism includes a plurality of widely circumferentially spaced jaws mounted for stepped rotation between the station in synchronism with incremental movement of the jig. The contact insertion mechanism comprises contact guides of complementary shape to the contact and insertable into a housing cavity from one side of the housing to mate with and guide a contact into the cavity from the other side of the housing.
