Abstract
A system for electrically terminating two or more insulated or uninsulated wires comprising forming a terminal about the wires with a ram and die cavity such that the terminal and wire configuration cross sectional profile is elongated in one direction, withdrawing the ram and die and engaging the terminal with a pair of electrodes to fuse the same under pressure and heat such that the terminal and wire configuration cross sectional profile becomes elongated in a direction generally perpendicular to said first direction.
Claims6
A method of electrically connecting two or more wires comprising forming a terminal about the wires elongating the terminal and wire in one direction, applying heat and current to the terminal and wires causing softening of the same, applying pressure to the softened terminal and wires fusing the contacting surfaces thereof and elongating a portion of the terminal and wire in a direction generally perpendicular to said one direction.
