Estimating the term…
Core end sleeves (22) are linked to one another in the form of a belt and in each case have a metal sleeve (70) in the front region and a plastic sleeve (71), which partially engages over the metal sleeve (70), in the rear region, via which the core end sleeves are connected to one another. The plastic sleeves are in each case provided on their rear end with a projection (72) which points to the rear and rests on an outer side of the belt. The height, running at right angles to the plane of the belt, of the projection (72) is independent of the diameter of the plastic sleeves (71). Core end sleeves (22) for different conductor cross-sections can thus be transported using one and the same core end sleeve guide track (63) which has a guide groove (67) on its one side wall (65) for the projections (72).
Core end sleeves comprising core end sleeves linked to one another in the form of a belt, each core end sleeve having a metal sleeve in a front region thereof and a plastic sleeve which partially engages over the metal sleeve and is permanently connected to the metal sleeve, the plastic sleeve being in a rear region of the core end sleeve, the core end sleeves being connected to one another via the plastic sleeves, each of the plastic sleeves being provided on their rear end with a projection which points rearwardly and forms an outer side of the belt, each of the plastic sleeves having a perforating slot which runs on the rear thereof in the longitudinal direction of the belt in order to form the projection.
The combination of core end sleeves and a device for transportation of the core end sleeves comprising the core end sleeves being linked to one another in the form of a belt, each core end sleeve having a metal sleeve in a front region thereof and a plastic sleeve which partially engages over the metal sleeve and is permanently connected to the metal sleeve, the plastic sleeve being in a rear region of the core end sleeve, the core end sleeves being connected to one another via the plastic sleeves, each of the plastic sleeves being provided on their rear end with a projection which points rearwardly and forms an outer side of the belt, each of the plastic sleeves having a perforating slot which runs on the rear thereof in the longitudinal direction of the belt in order to form the projection, the device having a groove-shaped core end sleeve guide track with a base and mutually opposite side walls, one of the side walls having a guide groove which is incorporated in an extension of the base and is used to hold the projections of the core end sleeves in a fitting manner during their transportation along the guide track.
