  • Publication number: 20160218443
    Abstract: A conductor wire crimping portion (7) has depressions (13a, 13b, 13c) that are disposed at prescribed intervals in the axial direction and that are linear locking portions. The depressions (13a, 13b, 13c) are continuously depressed grooves on the inner surface of a crimping portion (5). On an upper die (30a), at a portion corresponding to the conductor wire crimping portion (7), a straight portion is formed, and in the front-back direction thereof, tapered portions are formed. More specifically, the upper die (30a) is formed to have an inverted trapezoid shape, a middle portion of which protrudes in the crimping direction. Consequently, at each boundary between the straight portion and the tapered portion, a die angled portion (32) is formed. At an area corresponding to the straight portion of the upper die (30a), the depression (13a) is provided, and at an area corresponding to the die angled section (32), the depression (13b) is provided.

  • Patent number: 5388869
    Abstract: A saddle type pipe joint for construction of branching connections, composed of a saddle-shaped main pipe-connecting part and a cylindrical branching pipe-connecting part. The two parts are integrally molded by a reaction molding, composed of a shape-memorized plastic resin, and have on the inner surfaces a fusion-bonding plastic resin layer containing a conductive filler. The pipe joint is made by polymerising a reactive liquid stock for a shape-memorizable plastic resin in a mold using a core made of a fusible plastic resin containing a conductive filler; cutting the main pipe part of the molded composite article along its length at the side opposite to the branching pipe-connecting site; and opening side edges of the thus-cut main pipe. The construction of branching connections is carried out by utilizing the restoration of the shape-memorized plastic resin to the original shape.
