ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for assembling a spline-type connection wherein a plurality of angularly spaced spline teeth on a first member project radially from a circular edge thereof and are disposed in an imaginary annulus concentric with the circular edge, a staging annulus corresponding in size to the imaginary annulus is formed on a second member at one end of and perpendicular to a cylindrical wall on the second member adapted to slidably receive the circular edge of the first member, a frusto-conical centering guide shoulder is formed on the second member around the staging annulus and extends longitudinally outboard from the staging annulus, and a plurality of spline grooves are formed in the cylindrical wall and intersect the staging annulus at a corresponding plurality of notches angularly spaced to register with the spline teeth. During assembly, the first member is advanced to a staged position on the second member wherein the spline teeth rest on the staging annulus and is then rotated in the staged position to register the spline teeth with the notches to permit advancement of the spline teeth along the spline grooves.
