The patent application (Publication Number: US20230411047A1) describes a core wire separation apparatus designed to separate a multi-core cable's drain wire and core wires. The apparatus includes a holding device, a separation member, and a moving device. The separation member features a hooking portion that hooks the core wires while moving in a direction perpendicular to the cable's axial direction, without hooking the drain wire. Additionally, the hooking portion is positioned beyond the core wires in the opposite direction of movement and overlaps the core wires while staying away from the drain wire.

Furthermore, the apparatus includes a driving mechanism that allows the hooking portion to retract beyond the core wires in both perpendicular directions. The separation member also includes arms that extend beyond the hooking portions to grip the core wires. Additionally, a restriction portion is included to further aid in separating the core wires. The apparatus is designed to expose the drain wire and core wires at the cable's tip, with the moving direction oblique to the cable's axial direction. The hooking portion's contact surface extends obliquely to the cable's axis, ensuring effective separation as it moves closer to the cable's tip. Overall, the core wire separation apparatus offers a precise and efficient method for separating core wires in a multi-core cable.
