METHOD OF ASSEMBLING COMPONENTS

摘要

The invention relates to a method of assembling two parts of which one part is a sub-assembly formed of a plurality of relatively movable components. The method comprises the steps of holding the components of the sub-assembly in their desired relative positions for assembly, cooling the sub-assembly sufficiently to prevent relative movement between the components of the sub-assembly, and offering the sub-assembly to the other part while the components of the sub-assembly are locked against one another. It is preferred to coat the sub-assembly prior to cooling with a liquid, the cooling being sufficient to freeze the liquid to cause locking of the components.
