SLEEVE COMPRESSOR FOR CONNECTING ELECTRIC WIRE

PURPOSE:To facilitate the connecting work of distribution lines by providing a moving mechanism which locates the connecting hole of a sleeve held by a sleeve holding section and an electric wire held by an electric wire holding section face to face on the same straight line then moves the sleeve holding section and the electric wire holding section near to each other in the direction parallel with the connecting hole. CONSTITUTION:A sleeve S is compressed and fitted at the tip of a distribution line 33 in the power stoppage state. The sleeve S is set on the sleeve holding section 5 of a compressor main section 1. A distribution line 32 in the active state is set to an electric wire holding section 9. A screw shaft 4 is rotated with an insulated driver or the like, and the tip of the distribution line 32 is inserted into the connecting hole H of the sleeve S. The distribution line 32 and the connecting hole H of the sleeve S are located on a straight line, the sliding direction of a sliding member 3 against a base 2 and the direction of the screw shaft 4 are the same, thus the distribution line 32 can be inserted with no center positioning. Distribution lines 32 and 33 are pulled together with the screw shaft 4, and thus even if tension is applied to distribution lines 32 and 33, the tension can be coped with a small force by the boosting action of screw, and the load of a worker is reduced.
