TERMINATION MACHINE WITH BLADE POSITION SWITCHING MECHANISM

A termination machine includes a ram, a shearing arm, and a toggle mechanism. The ram moves reciprocally relative to a stationary anvil between an extended position and a retracted position during a crimp stroke and crimps a terminal against the anvil while moving towards the extended position. The shearing arm is mounted to the ram and moves with the ram along a portion of the crimp stroke. The shearing arm includes a blade at a distal end thereof and a post projecting laterally from the shearing arm. The toggle mechanism is operatively connected to the post of the shearing arm. The toggle mechanism selectively toggles the shearing arm between a cutting position and a non-cutting position of the shearing arm relative to the ram. The blade of the shearing arm projects farther beyond a crimp end of the ram in the cutting position than in the non-cutting position. 一种端接机包括冲头、剪切臂和肘节机构。所述冲头在压接冲程期间在延伸位置和缩回位置之间相对于固定砧座往复地移动，并且当朝向所述延伸位置移动时，所述冲头将端子抵靠所述砧座进行压接。所述剪切臂安装到所述冲头且沿着所述压接冲程的一部分随着所述冲头移动。所述剪切臂包括在其远端处的刀片和从所述剪切臂横向突出的
