Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable pressure welding of an electric wire with a diameter not smaller than the inner diameter of a terminal, while preventing the external flaw of the electric wire and the deformation of the terminal caused by a collision between the electric wire and the side wall of the terminal. SOLUTION: An electric wire (a) gripped by an electric wire chuck is conveyed into a position above a pressure connected terminal T, and the electric wire (a) is pressed down by a pressure connecting blade 43 and fed into a clearance 46 of pressure connecting guides 45 from a clearance 37 of electric wire guides 36. The clearance 46 of the pressure welded guides 45 is formed in downwardly narrowed taper shape with its lower inner diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the electric wire (a), and the electric wire (a) is pressed into the pressure welded terminal T through the clearance 46. The electric wire (a) is pushed into the pressure welded terminal T, while being longitudinally deformed without colliding with the sidewall of the pressure welded terminal T.
