Wire harness manufacturing method and wire harness manufacturing device

A wire harness manufacturing device comprising:

• a standard-size electric wire manufacturing device in which a terminal-equipped electric wire which is connected to a terminal at least at one end is manufactured in lot units for each type;
• an electric wire clamp which includes a pair of electric wire clips which clamps the terminal-equipped electric wire respectively so as to dispose both end portions to be adjacent in a same direction and form the terminal-equipped electric wire in a U shape;
• a dispensing device which dispenses a plurality of terminal-equipped electric wires clamped by the electric wire clamp respectively for each type;
• an electric wire holder which temporarily stores the plurality of terminal-equipped electric wires for each type through the plurality of electric wire clamps aligned in a row so that a plurality of the both end portions of the terminal-equipped electric wires clamped by the pair of electric wire clips respectively face upward in parallel;
• a take-out device which selects and takes out at least one of the electric wire clamps which clamp the terminal-equipped electric wires which is predetermined for each type from a supply stand where the plurality of electric wire holders are aligned in parallel;
• an electric wire driving device in which the both end portions of the terminal-equipped electric wire clamped by the electric wire clamp taken out from the electric wire holder are locked to an electric wire clip tool respectively, and an electric wire group configuring a wire harness is aggregated at the electric wire clip tool so as to forms a harness set;
• and
• an automatic terminal inserting device which detaches the end portions of the terminal-equipped electric wire from the harness set in a predetermined order and inserts the terminals which are connected and fixed into a terminal accommodating chamber of a connector housing.
