| Bulges in a wire having helically coiled strands are formed by untwisting the strands in an anti-helical direction at a predetermined position, to form an electrical connector from a length of the stranded wire. The wire is gripped by moving two spaced apart clamp members to a closed position and thereafter rotating the clamp members relative to one another in at least one complete relative revolution in a direction which is anti-helical relative to the coiled strands to form the bulge. The wire is gripped and rotated in the anti-helical direction for a relative rotational interval of greater than one-half, and preferably three-fourths, of a complete relative revolution. Thereafter, during the remaining rotational interval of each relative revolution, the clamp members are opened to permit the wire to be advanced to the next position where a bulge is to be formed. | ||||||

| 138 | Wirewrapping method and machine | US979236 | 1992-11-20 | US5280812A | 1994-01-25 | Richard S. Bigelow |
| A support wire is placed through the hole of a device such as a ceiling clip for suspending an acoustical ceiling, and the wire is bent to provide a layover loop to which the device is slidingly attached, the tail of the layover loop being as long as a significant portion of the perimeter of the layover loop. The wide portion of such loop is placed in the vertical slot of a pivoted faceplate yieldingly urged to a vertical upright position, and the apex [crossover portion] of the loop is positioned in the conical zone in which the conical face have an angle, with respect to the axis of the wire-wrapping shaft of from 30 to 60 degrees. The stem is positioned in a slot substantially coaxially with the shaft, with the tail in the slot of said rotatable shaft. When the shaft is rotated, the conical faces guide the tail to wrap around the precursor to provide from about 2 to about 8 helical wrappings to stabilize the loop to which the clip is slidingly attached. Because of a one-way clutch, the shaft can be manually rotated in one direction to vertically and upwardly align the slot, thereby permitting removal of the product and the insertion of the next precursor. A foot switch is actuated by the operator to initiate and stop the wire-wrapping step. The gear coaxial with the shaft has a slot extending from the zone between the teeth of the gear to its center and sufficiently beyond to accommodate the coaxial stem of the wire. | ||||||
