Terminal Carrier and Connector Assembly Device

Abstract

A terminal carrier comprises a fixture and a moving component. The fixture is adapted to clamp an electrical connection member connected to a terminal. The moving component is mounted on the fixture in a movable manner and can be moved relative to the fixture between an initial position and a final position along a longitudinal direction. A guide groove adapted to mate with the terminal is formed on the moving component, and positions and guides the terminal to be inserted into a housing along the longitudinal direction. When the moving component is in the initial position, the terminal is positioned in the guide groove. As the moving component is moved from the initial position to the final position, the terminal gradually extends from the guide groove to allow the terminal to be gradually inserted into the housing.
