<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a component assembly device 1 requiring neither high precision of assembly of a component 4 and an object to be assembled 2 nor high precision of movement of the component 4 in the assembly of the component 4 when the component assembly process is automated. Ž<P>SOLUTION: In accordance with the component assembly device 1, the individual component 4 held by an individual retainer 30 is made to abut on a surface of the object assembled 2 so that the circumference adjacent to the component and the circumference adjacent to the object assembled are substantially identical to each other, and a component retaining part 41 is disposed between two assembly holes 3 circumferentially adjacent to each other, and thereafter a main robot 25 is rotated. Consequently, the individual component 4 rotatingly slides over the circumference adjacent to the object assembled, and the component 4 in which the assembly hole 3 and the component retaining part 41 coincide is sequentially temporarily inserted. The temporarily inserted retainer 30 is relatively moved with respect to a retainer bearing 31 by allowing a spring 33 to be circumferentially compressed. Thus, the automation of the component assembly process is achieved. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
