A sheet sticking apparatus for sticking a sheet S held on a continuous separator T and fed to the surface of a work W carried on a conveyor, which comprises a sorting section 7 adapted to position a work W fed from the preceding step and lower a detection plate 84 to sort the height of the work W, a sheet sticking section 8 arranged downstream of the sorting section 7 and adapted to lower the separator T to just above the work W, and sticking the sheet S to the surface of the work W while gradually peeling the sheet S from the separator T in synchronism with the carriage of the work W, and a press section 9 adapted to lower a press member 270, 271 to a position at which the press member contacts the surface of the work W, so that the press member presses the sheet S over its substantially entire surface against the work W, and to deliver the work W with the sheet stuck to the ensuing step. By virtue of this apparatus, the sheet S can be automatically stuck to the surface of the work W, even if it is large-sized and has an uneven surface, without the need to use a mold corresponding to the shape of the work W. |
