ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for assembling a frame, wherein the frame includes slotted side members connected by corner members insertable into slots of the slotted side members. The apparatus includes a table for holding side members of the frame, and a pair of ram assemblies proximate the table and having rams which move toward and from the table. When a ram of a ram assembly is activated a corner bracket received by the ram assembly is inserted into a frame side member carried by the table. The table includes locking mechanisms and guide members. Each locking mechanism and guide member combination orients a frame side member in an aligned position in relation to a ram, and locks a side member so that the side member remains stable when a ram is activated to insert a corner bracket into a side member. The apparatus is particularly useful for assembling a flange frame of an air conditioning or heating duct.
