A crimping hand tool used for crimping a coaxial cable and a coaxial terminal together is provided. The crimping hand tool includes a first body, a second body pivoted to the first body, a first linking body having a first end pivoted to the second body and a second end, a second linking body having a third end pivoted to the first body and a fourth end, a third linking body having a fifth end and a sixth end, a moving assembly, and a crimping assembly, wherein the second, the fourth, and the sixth ends are pivoted coaxially. The moving assembly is pivoted to the fifth end and slidably coupled to the first body along an axial direction. The crimping assembly is disposed on and moves along with the moving assembly to crimp the coaxial cable and the coaxial terminal together.

A compression tool including, in one embodiment, a fixed base, a compression member and a bi-directionally pivoting handle. The fixed base includes a static plunger for engaging a portion of a cable connector while the compression member slideably engages the fixed base along a line of action. The handle pivotally mounts to the fixed base and bi-directionally pivots about the axis to slide the compression member in one direction to facilitate loading of a connector body into a recess of the compression member, and in the other direction, to compress the connector body and the connector portion thereby coupling a cable to the connector body.

The invention relates to crimping pliers (1). The crimping pliers comprise a spring element (7) which is located in the force flow between hand levers (3, 5) and dies (12). The spring element (7) builds a force-displacement-compensation element (8) which provides the option to be able to crimp workpieces with different cross-sectional areas with the crimping pliers (1). According to the invention, the spring element (7) which builds the force-displacement-compensation element (8) is built in the region of the pliers head (4) of the crimping pliers (1). Preferably, the spring element (7) is a spring in the shape of an arc of a circle or a spiral spring (44) which extends in circumferential direction around the die axis (13).

A universal compact compression tool includes a vise assembly having different sets of jaws. The different sets of jaws are for holding different connectors during installation on a cable. A shaft on the tool is mounted to move between advanced and retracted positions with respect to the vise assembly. On the shaft, a plunger is mounted to move between first and second positions. In the first position of the plunger, the plunger is advanced on the shaft. In the second position of the plunger, the plunger is retracted on the shaft. The user sets the plunger in either the first or the second position depending on the type of connector to be installed on the cable. Once selected, and with the connector in the vise assembly, the user closes a lever of the tool to move the shaft to the advanced position, thereby applying the connector to the cable.

The invention is related to a cassette for machining a connector. The cassette is detachably disposed in a tool body having a head and a driving element. The direction of motion of the driving element defines a first axle. The cassette comprises: a cassette body and a machining block. The cassette body is detachably disposed in an opening of the head of the tool body and has a machining opening therein. The machining block is slidably disposed in the cassette body along the first axle and has an engagement element detachably engaged with the driving element of the tool body. Through the engagement element, the driving element drives the machining block to slide along the first axle to move toward or away from the machining opening.

A terminating apparatus for terminating a plurality of wires of a cable to a plurality of connection terminations of a communication module, the communication module comprises at least one upright walls each provided with at least one receiving slots for receiving the connection terminations each of which is electrically connected with one wire. The terminating apparatus comprises: at least one terminating portion into which the upright walls of the communication module are able to be inserted, each terminating portion separately holding the plurality of wires of the cable; and at least one cutting apparatus mounted in the terminating portions outside the receiving slot of the communication module and constructed to cut off parts of the wires which extend out the receiving slots after the wires are terminated to the connection terminations of the communication module. The wires may be easily and quickly terminated to the communication module. External protection layers of the wires are pierced and conductors of the wires are electrically connected to the communication module during terminating the wires. It does not need to peel off the external protection layers of the wires before terminating the wires.
