ABSTRACT:
Thin metal strips to be temporarily or permanently connected end-to-end, e.g. for successive traverse of a heating zone, are passed with overlapped extremities through a press in which these extremities are jointly perforated from above at several locations by punches of pyramidal shape leaving separate tabs of both strips hanging down in each perforation, these tabs being then bent over and flattened against the lower strip by rising pushers. The series of strips thus interconnected may be continuously advanced toward a furnace or other treatment stage by traction rollers over a path defined by spring-loaded guide rollers forming loops which contract when two sheets to be joined are temporarily clamped in the press.
