10 Claims.
This invention relates to insulation cutting apparatus and more particularly to an insulation cutting fixture designed to perform a transverse cutting operation upon rubber jacketed cables.
It is frequently desirable to strip from cable cores a part of the insulation adjacent to the ends of insulated cables in order to join the cable conductor to terminals or to splice lengths of the cables. In order that the stripped end of such a cable may fit accurately into a connector secured thereto, it is desirable to have the insulation severed in such manner that the resulting incision lies in one plane and a straight transverse shoulder is left at the end of the remaining insulation after the severed portion of the insulation has been removed. When the cables are insulated with vulcanized rubber compounds or other tough plastics, it is often diificult to sever the insulation on the ends of the cables so that the entire incision lies in one plane.
t is the object of this invention to provide new and improved insulation cutting apparatus. One insulation cutting apparatus embodying the invention comprises a frame on which a rotatable disc is mounted to be rotated by a pivoted handle attached thereto, which carries a cutting blade secured in a slot thereof. A bushing having an opening of about the same size as the cable and having a gauge member to insure that a predetermined length of insulation is severed from the end of the cable, is secured to and rtated by the rotatable disc. By means of such apparatus, an annular incision may be made in the insulation at a predetermined distance from the end of the cable to facilitate stripping the insulation from the cable core.
Other objects and features of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of one embodiment of this invention, when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. l is a fragmentary side elevation of a cable insulation cutting apparatus embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary vertical sectional View thereof taken on line 2--2 of Fig. l, and
Fig. 3 is a side view of a cable showing the annular incision produced in the insulaton by the cutting apparatus.
Referring to Fig. 2 of the drawing, an annular disc it) is rotatably mounted on a flange H of an upright it which may be attached to a work bench or other structure. A bushing l4 rotatably mounted in an aperture E5 in the upright I2 has a bore (6 therein whose diameter is substantially Western Electric Comthe same as that of an insulated cable l8 comprising a core 20 surrounded by an insulating covering l9 made of a vulcanized rubber composi tion or the like, and from which a portion of the covering I9 is to be removed. For different sizes of cables, bushings having corresponding sizes of bores may be provided and each bushing fits into the aperture I5 50 that the same apparatus may be used for cutting the insulation on cables of various sizes.
The bushing 14 is secured against longitudinal movement in the aperture l5 by a flange 2| formed on the bushing l4 and a lug 22 removably attached by a screw 23 to the upright l2. The annular disc III has an L-shaped member 25 attached thereto by screws 25-26. The L.- shaped member has an aperture 28 therein in which a pin 29 is slidably mounted and in which a spring .30 bears against a collar 21 on the pin 29 and resiliently forces the pin into a socket 31 in a semicircular shoulder 32 of the bushing It to secure releasably the disc H) and the bushing for rotation together.
A gauging arm 34 is transversely mounted on a rod 35 which is threaded into a threaded socket 36 in the shoulder. The distance of the gauging arm 34 from the shoulder 32 may be adjusted by screwing the rod 35 into the socket 36 the required distance, a nut 31 threaded on the rod 35 against the shoulder 32 serving to retain therod in its adjusted position.
An arm 33 having a transverse handle 39 thereon is pivotally mounted on a pin 40 fixed in the disc I5. The arm 33 has a vertical slot 41 (Fig. 2) formed therein which is bounded by arms 44 and 45. A cutting disc 4.6 and a U-shaped gauge 48 partially surrounding the disc 46 are secured in the slot M by a screw 49. The screw 49 engages a threaded aperture 55 in the arm 44 and passes through an unthreaded aperture 5i in the arm 45. through a pair of elongated slots 52-52 in arms 53 and 54 of the, U-shaped gauge 48, and through an aperture 55 in the disc 46. The arm has a pair of slots -56 therein, of which only one is shown in full lines in Fig. 1, through which screws 58.-58 pass. The screws 58-53 are screwed into threaded apertures 59.-59 in the arm 54 to adjustably secure the gauge 48 against rotation relative to the arm 45. The cutting disc 46 has a heel 5!) (Fig. 1) formed thereon upon which a rigid bar 6| bears to prevent rotation of disc 46 relative to the arm 38. The bar 6| is secured to the arm 38 by screws 62-.-62.
A circular cutting edge 54 and a radial cutthereof, which bear against the cable l8 when the arm 38 is in the position as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1 and in full lines in Fig. 2. The arcuate surfaces 6868 bearing on the insulation l9 prevent the point 66 from penetrating beyond the insulation into the cable core and thereby prevent injury to the cable core during the insulation cutting operation. Flat end surfaces 69-69 of the arms 53 and 54 bear against the shoulder 32 when the arm 38 is in the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1 and prevent the adjacent arcuate surfaces 68-68 from flattening the insulation I9 during the cutting operation.
A catch 10 is secured to the disc ID by screws ll-ll to receive the arm 38 when the arm is rotated into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1. i
In the operation of this device, with the arm 38 depending from the disc I0, substantially as shown in full lines in Fig. 1, an insulated cable I8 is inserted through the bore IS in the bushing l4 until the end of the cable abuts the gauging arm 34 and is held manually in'that position. The arm 38 is then rotated upon the pin 48 in a clockwise direction as seen in Fig. 1 to the position shown in dotted lines in that figure so that the point 66 on the cutting disc46 penetrates the covering l9 to the depth permitted by the surfaces 68 -68 and 6969 on arms 53 and 54 of the gauge 48. The arm 38 then is in engagement with the catch l0 and further attempted rotation of the arm 38 causes the disc I0 and the bushing I 4 secured thereto to rotate about the cable l8. Rotation of these members causes the cutting disc 46 to be forced through the insulation l9 in a circular path and the radial cutting edge 65 thereon makes a ring-like incision 12 (Fig. 3') in the covering l9. After the ring-like incision 12 has been formed, that portion of the covering I9 between the incision I1 and the end of the cable I 8 can be stripped off.
As has been mentioned previously, the exposed length of the rod 35, which determines the amount of the insulation to be stripped from the cable, may be adjusted as desired. The bushing I4 may be removed from the frame l2 by turning the lug 22 and withdrawing the pin 29 from the socket 3| in the shoulder 32'. If several bushings similar to the bushing l4 but having central openings of different sizes are provided, the fixture may be used to cut the insulation of cables of various sizes corresponding to the sizes of the bores in the bushings. Obviously, the gauge 48 can be loosened in the slot 4! and moved with respect to the arms 44 and 45 to leave a larger or smaller portion of the cutting disc 46 exposed for operation on cables having insulation of difierent thicknesses and to effectively prevent injury to the cable core 20 by the point 66 on the cutting disc 46.
The catch 10 holds the arm 38 against the disc l0 during the entire cutting operation and thus causes the arm and the cutting blade to be rotated in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cable so that the incision 12 will be in saidplane.
