ABSTRACT:
A method of assembling a gear train including at least two shafts each journaled in at least one gear and bearing, in a support assembly, comprising forming openings in the support assembly having cross sectional areas greater than the cross sectional areas of the bearings, positoning the bearings in the openings, meshing the gears to provide a desired clearance and alignment of the shafts, inserting a moldable, hardenable material in the openings between the support assembly and the bearings and then hardening the material to fix the position of the bearings and, correspondingly, assure the desired clearance of the gears and alignment of the shafts without requiring accurate machining of the openings in the support assembly.
