摘要 |
An assembly apparatus is disclosed for assembling a first element having opposed end surfaces within a second element so as to leave the end surfaces exposed subsequent to the application of an adhesive material. The apparatus includes a pair of elastomeric seals, each seal having an axially inner surface for contacting an end surface of the first element, the edge of the axially internal surface acting to position the end surfaces of the first element wholly within the edge of the internal surface. Each seal also includes a step spaced a preselected distance outside of the internal surface edge for positioning the second element generally coaxially with respect to the first element. The lower seal includes apertures for permitting the introduction of adhesive material between the first and second elements while the upper seal includes apertures to permit venting of the space between the first and second elements, the venting apertures leading to a reservoir for receiving any overfill of the adhesive material.
