A terminal bending tool comprises a plate, a plurality of receiving grooves, and a plurality of rollers. The plate extends in a first horizontal direction. The receiving grooves are disposed in the plate in a row along the first horizontal direction. The rollers are pivotally mounted in the receiving grooves. A terminal is received and positioned in a first receiving groove and is in contact with an outer circumferential surface of a first roller. When the terminal bending tool is moved in a vertical direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction, the first roller rotates and moves along a surface of the terminal while pressing and bending the terminal.

Systems and devices for crimping a medical device and associated methods are disclosed herein. A crimping device configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a frame including a stationary plate, a movable member, and a plurality of blades arranged to form a channel and each including a pin that projects through a slot on the movable member and a corresponding slot on the stationary plate. The crimping device can be actuated to move the movable member relative to the stationary plate to drive the pins along paths defined by the slots to thereby drive the blades radially inward to crimp a medical device positioned within the channel.

A crimping die including a first die piece having a recess portion and a second die piece having a protrusion portion is provided. An inner wall surface of the recess portion has a bottom wall surface and recess-side lateral end surfaces. An outer surface of the protrusion portion has a top end surface and protrusion-side lateral end surfaces. The bottom wall surface has a recess-side projection portion, a recess-side concave portion, and a recess-side curvature changing portion. The top end surface has a protrusion-side projection portion, a protrusion-side concave portion, and a protrusion-side curvature changing portion. A sign of curvature of the bottom wall surface changes at a boundary portion in the recess-side curvature changing portion with respect to the recess-side concave portion. A sign of curvature of the top end surface changes at a boundary portion in the protrusion-side curvature changing portion with respect to the protrusion-side concave portion.

The present invention relates to a manufacturing method for an electrical connector, comprising the following steps: providing a first strip, a second strip, and a plurality of grounding terminals, power terminals and signal terminals which are located between the first strip and the second strip; forming a first body and a second body onto the grounding terminals, the power terminals and the signal terminals by insert-molding, wherein each grounding terminal comprises an exposed upper contacting portion, an exposed lower contacting portion and a first connecting portion located between the first body and the second body; bending the first connecting portions, assembling a shielding plate into the accommodating space; and forming an insulation block onto the first body and the second body by an insert-molding.

The present invention relates to an electric contact element that has at least one crimping strap which is configured and arranged to reach around the outer circumference of an electric conductor, at least in sections, at least in a fully crimped state of the contact element. Furthermore, the invention relates to an electric contact arrangement that has at least one electric conductor and at least one contact element that has at least one crimping strap which is crimped, at least in sections, around an outer circumference of the conductor. Finally, the invention relates to a method of producing an electric contact arrangement, at least one crimping strap of a contact element being crimped, at least in sections, around an electric conductor. In order to seal an interior of the contact arrangement as simply and effectively as possible and with long-term stability against the penetration of corrosive media, provision is made according to the invention such that at least one front protection strap of the contact element is aligned running, at least in sections, transversely to the at least one crimping strap and rests against the latter, a front section of the electric conductor being covered, at least in sections, by the at least one front protection strap.
