Abstract (en)

A contact crimper (1) for crimping contacts (30) on wire ends (35) has a cam means (3a,3b) rotatable only in one direction, a pair of manual levers (4,5) for driving the cam means to rotate, and a pair of first jaw (2a) and second jaw (2b) both operatively connected by the cam means to the manual levers so as to crimp the contact. The jaws (2a,2b) respectively have cam followers (16a, 16b) formed at proximal ends and kept in contact with the cam means' periphery. The cam means (3a,3b) has protuberances (3b1) protruding radially and outwardly, and a spring (15) intervenes between the jaws so as to urge their distal ends away from each other. <IMAGE>
