20120318401 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR BENDING WIRE - An apparatus for bending wire is disclosed. The apparatus for bending wire comprises a pair of forming parts pivotably connected at a joint. The first forming part has a receiving section and the second forming part has a projecting section. The receiving section has a bottom surface and a pair of opposing sidewalls extending toward the second forming part. The projecting section has a projection extending toward the first forming part. The receiving section and the projecting section are sized to bend a wire into a pair of substantially right angles when the wire is positioned between the receiving section and the projecting section and when the second forming part is pivoted such that the projection is received between the pair of opposing sidewalls. A method for bending wire with the above-described apparatus is also disclosed. | 12-20-2012 |
