ABSTRACT:
A splining apparatus for seating an elongated flexible spline in the screen retaining channel of a screen frame to secure flexible screen material thereto, including a work support assembly for receiving and holding the screen frame, and a carriage assembly for longitudinal movement between a first position and a second position. The splining apparatus further includes a screen roll feed holder assembly for supplying screen material located at the first position; and a spline roll holder for supplying spline material located at the second position. The carriage assembly supports a spline head assembly for supplying the spline to the screen frame as the carriage assembly moves from the second position to the first position. The spline head assembly includes a spline wheel sub-assembly for inserting and seating the spline into the screen retaining channel as the carriage assembly and the spline head assembly move from the first position to the second position. The spline head assembly also includes a spline cutter sub-assembly for cutting the spline at the second position after the spline and screen material have been seated in the screen retaining channel. The splining apparatus also includes an electronic sensor for sensing the end of the screen frame and for stopping the movement of the spline head assembly at the second position.
