Abstract:
A wire wrap bit has a rotatable drive member with an axial bore to receive a terminal to be wrapped, and a ridge extending longitudinally along the outer periphery thereof. A hollow rotatable outer member having a longitudinal opening therein to receive the ridge is positioned circumferentially of the drive member. A wire is inserted in a channel formed by the ridge and an edge of the longitudinal opening and is releasably clamped therebetween upon rotation of the drive member. Continued rotation of the drive member causes the wire to be withdrawn from the channel and tightly wrapped on the terminal due to the tension on the wire resulting from the rotational clamping action.
