ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns an apparatus and method for making a core structure for use in a seal assembly, trim assembly, and the like. According to the method of the present invention, a plurality of individual core segments of resilient material such as metal are conveyed along a predetermined path in spaced apart unattached relationship to one another. Next, a first strip of flexible material such as fiber reinforced adhesive tape is applied to one surface of the segments as they travel along the predetermined path and subsequently, and a second strip of flexible material is attached to the opposite surface of the segments. In the preferred embodiment of the apparatus of the invention, the individual segments are conveyed by utilizing a rotatable wheel having a plurality of individual spaced apart recesses formed therein, which are adapted to successively receive the individual segments.
