    Abstract: A stripping tool includes a fixed handle (10), a fixed clamp plate (20), a movable handle (30), a movable clamp plate (40), a cutting/pulling mechanism (50) and a driving operation mechanism (60). The driving operation mechanism (60) includes a pushing assembly (61), a pressing assembly (62) and an action member (63). One end of the pushing assembly (61) is connected to the moveable handle (30) and another end is moveably connected to the action member (63). The pressing assembly (62) is fixed to the fixed handle (10). One end of the action member (63) is connected to the cutting/pulling mechanism (50) and another end is elastically pressed by the pressing assembly (62). When the movable handle (30) rotates toward the fixed handle (10), the pushing assembly (61) moves the action member (63) and the cutting/pulling mechanism (50) toward the pressing assembly (62) to implement wire stripping.

  • Patent number: 10800018
    Abstract: A crimping tool includes a base, a press handle, a slide module, a link and a fixed fix shaft. The base has two first side walls and to sliding space is defined therebetween. One end of the press handle is pivoted at an end of the base. The slide module is slidably accommodated in the sliding space and has a guiding groove. Two ends of the link are pivoted at the press handle and the slide module separately. The fix shaft is disposed across the two first side walls and inserted in the guiding groove. When the press handle drives the slide module sliding in the sliding space through the link, the guiding groove of the slide module will be guided and restricted by the fix shaft. Therefore, the guiding grooves will not be damaged and get dirt.

  • Patent number: 10461690
    Abstract: A defect inspection method and a defect inspection system for a solar cell are proposed, where the method includes the following steps. Output voltages and output currents of the solar cell are measured by a measuring device. A stepwise current-voltage curve (stepwise IV curve) and a fitted current-voltage curve (fitted IV curve) are generated by a processing device according to the output voltages and the output currents, and whether a first error of the fitted IV curve is less than a first error tolerance is determined by the processing device. When the first error is not less than the first error tolerance, whether there exists at least one surge in steps of the stepwise IV curve is determined by the processing device so as to determine whether the solar cell has a defect. Next, a determined result of the processing device is outputted by the output device.
