ABSTRACT:
A staking apparatus is provided for use in assembling two or more workpieces, wherein one of the workpieces is made from a thermally softenable and pressure deformable material. The staking apparatus includes a first end plate, an intermediate plate aligned with and spaced apart from the first end plate and a first extensible member disposed therebetween. A second end plate is provided that is extensible in relation to the intermediate plate by the first extensible member. A vent tube, which supplies a flow of air unto the workpiece, and a second extensible member are secured for movement with the second end plate. A staking tool is mounted to the second extensible member and is extensible between a working position, wherein a portion of the thermally softenable workpiece is deformed, and a storage position. A method of operating the staking apparatus is also disclosed.
