ABSTRACT:
A wire gripper (48) includes a housing (50,52,56) that defines a chamber (62) which has sidewalls (64) that taper in an axial direction. Jaws (66) are closely and slidably received into chamber (62). Axial spring (74) biases jaws (66) axially outwardly relative to chamber (62). Radial springs (78) bias jaws (66) toward sidewalls (64). A double-acting cylinder (94) moves housing (50,52,56) axially outwardly to tighten jaws (66) around a wire (200), and axially inwardly to move jaws (66) against jaw stop (88) to open jaws (66). Preferably, axial movement of wire (200) pulls pivoting blades (6,8) closed. Gripper (48) may be modified to cut or punch wire (200) rather than grip it.
