COVERED WIRE ALIGNING AND TAKING-OUT DEVICE

PURPOSE:To make work efficient by surely taking out covered wires flatly aligned one by one, and setting them in a determined position of an insulator in the following step. CONSTITUTION:Covered wires 11 having cables 1 exposed are flatly aligned, and the arranged covered wires 11 are successively taken out one by one from the end part by a covered wire aligning and taking-out part 35. A magazine 32 is provided with a slit groove 321a for flatly aligning the covered wires 11 and a covered wire pushing piece 33 for collectively moving the covered wires 11 in the covered wire taking-out direction laid along the groove 321a. The covered wire taking-out part 35 sets a required covered wire taking-out position according to the signal of the detection of the position of the taking-out side end part of the covered wires 11 aligned in the magazine 32. The covered wire pushing part 36 pushes the covered wire pushing piece 33 in the magazine 32 according to the signal of the taking out of the covered wire situated in the end part of the covered wires 11. The taking-out part 35 and the pushing part 33 are controlled by a control system.
