Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus and method for ultrasonically welding a conductor wire to an electrical terminal. The terminal has a channel portion for receiving the conductor wire. The electrical terminal with the wire therein is confined adjacent the welding tip whereby movement of the welding tip into the channel portion presses the conductor wire against the electrical terminal and welds it thereto.
