ABSTRACT:
A feed conveyor supplies resawn split shakes of varying thicknesses to an operator at a shake panel assembling machine. The operator arranges shakes in a row with the shake butts generally aligned and the sawn surfaces of the shakes laid on the upper surface of a backing strip to which thermosetting glue has been applied. The assembly of shakes and backing strip is conveyed by a carrier belt to a press station where a solid but readily deformable elastomer pad is pressed against the rough split upper surfaces of the shakes. The pressure of the pad on the shakes causes the pad to be deformed unevenly to conform to the split surfaces of the uneven and varying thickness shakes so that each shake and all portions of each shake are held in engagement with the backing strip under substantially the same pressure while the glue is set by dielectric heating. When the glue has set, the elastomer pad is released from the shakes and the completed assembly is conveyed by the carrier belt to a discharge conveyor.
