ABSTRACT:
A split ring assembly apparatus utilizes a unique combination of three major subassemblies whose interaction is microprocessor controlled to facilitate operator attachment of object to a split ring. A ring delivery and pick-up arm subassembly automatically delivers rings to an operating position where the combined interaction of the clamping/rotating and splitter wheel subassemblies precisely locate and position the ring gap adjacent the operator, open the split in the ring adjacent the gap to enable initial attachment of objects to the ring by the operator, and complete rotation of the ring with respect to the objects resulting in full attachment. Various position sensors monitor and control operation and interaction of the subassemblies to provide reliable, safe and efficient operation.
