Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8606220A1] A harness making machine in which pairs of connectors (15, 15') are fed past work stations (13, 13') in which wires (25) are terminated in the connector pairs by rams (22, 22') is associated with a wire holding head (21) which defines either a curved wire feeding track (34) permitting the formation of a wire loop between the connectors of a pair or a straight wire feeding track (35) according to the position of a rotatable pilot (37) mounted in the head (21). An upper part of the track (34 or 35) is formed by a groove in the underside of a support plate (21) and the base of the track (34) is closed and opened to form and release a wire loop by the movement of cam followers (52 and 53) between outer and inner positions. Such movement is effected by lower and upper cam plates (54 and 55) connected by pins (56, 56') to pistons (78, 78').
