Attorney, Agent or Firm:

A partially pre-assembled electrical connector has metal terminals partially inserted in a housing. The connectors are completed by at least partially withdrawing each terminal from the housing, placing the end of a wire in the exposed portion of the terminal, crimping the terminal on the wire, and then fully inserting the terminal in the housing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION These and other objects of the invention are accomplished in accordance with the principles of the invention by providing electrical connectors in which the terminals are partially pre-inserted and releasably retained in a terminal housing.
When the electrical conductors (wires) are to be connected to the terminals, each terminal is partially ejected from the housing so that the appropriate conductor can be placed in the terminal.
The terminal is then crimped around the conductor and pushed all the way back into the housing where it is latched in place.
Apparatus is provided for partially ejecting the pre-inserted terminals form the housing, crimping the partially ejected terminals around conductors placed in the terminals, and then fully re-inserting the crimped terminals in the housing.
Further features of the invention, its nature and various advantages will be more apparent from the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description of the invention.
