Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hand tool to be used when cabling an electric plug, especially a multi-connection plug.
  • connection cable having multiple cores, each core being colour coded by its insulation, to assist connection to the correct terminal.
  • an installation engineer usually needs to refer to installation notes to locate the colour of the core to be connected to the individual connections, which may be within a single plug or other termination-type device.
  • a plug cabling hand tool comprises an openable body having in a first side a plug recess into which an electric plug to be multiple-connected to a cable can be inserted, and in a second, opposite side a plurality of apertures spaced along the body, the apertures within the body narrowing and converging towards the plug recess.
  • the ends of the apertures adjacent to the plug recess are arranged so that if a plurality of electric cores of a cable are pushed into individual apertures, the cores are directed into respective connection slots of a plug within the plug recess.
  • the tool has on a third side a label or decal to indicate the correct order in which colour coded cable cores are to be placed in the apertures.
  • a metal backshell 4 has a circular collar 5 which can slide along the cable and a rectangular part 6 which fits over the plug 2. After the cable cores have been crimped into position, the backshell is slid over the plug body, leaving part exposed; this exposed part carries a spring clip 7 which retains the plug in its electrical connection.
  • the jig comprises a rectangular body 10 made of polypropylene having on one short edge an integral hinge 12 and on the opposite short edge a snap fitting connector 14, comprising a first tongue 16 with a projection 18, and a second tongue 20 with an aperture 22 into which the projection 18 snap fits to keep the tool closed and to allow easy opening.
  • a decal 24 On the upper surface of the jig is a decal 24 on which the solid or shaded lines 25 indicate lines of different colour.
  • Figure 2A shows that along one long edge of the body 10 between the hinge 12 and the snap fitting 14 there is a row of circular apertures 26.
  • Reference to figure 2B shows that the apertures are funnel shaped, narrowing and converging within the body 10; the apertures together form a fan shape.
  • a rectangular plug recess 28 the dimensions of which match the plug 2.
  • a rear wall 30 of the recess acts as a stop.
  • the jig is made of polypropylene and comprises upper and lower matching parts 10L, with half of the converging apertures 26 and half of the plug recess 28 being formed in each part.
  • the jig can be cast metal such as aluminium.
  • an RJ45 plug which has eight connection slots, is placed in the recess 28 against the stop 30 and the body 10 is closed.
  • a cable for connection has its outer insulation stripped to expose its colour coded cores.
  • the cores are separated and placed one in each aperture 26, in the correct order as indicated by the coloured line 25. There is no need for the installation engineer to look away from the task to refer to installation notes.
  • the cable is pushed into the body, and the cores are guided by their respective funnel shaped apertures 26 into the plug in recess 28 until each core is in its correct connection slot where it is held captive by friction.
  • the snap fitting 14 is opened and the plug and cores removed from the jig. The cores are then crimped in position in the plug 2.
  • Figure 4 shows the plug 2 with the eight cores 32 of a cable 34 after they have been pushed through the funnel shaped apertures and into their positions in the plug.
  • the backshell 4 is shown on the cable 34. After the cores have been crimped, the shell is slid to place.
  • the body 10 could be provided with slots to allow interchangeable colour coded labels to be used. if this should be considered cost effective.
  • a dimension of the jig can be used to indicate the length of outer cable sheath which must be removed for correct connection to the plug for which the jig is designed.
  • the jig can be dimensioned so that when the plug is inserted in the recess 28, the length of the jig plus the plug projecting from the jig indicates the length of outer cable sheath to be stripped.
