~2~ 7 advanced and retracted positions of the first movable table 11, namely, an advanced position at which the master shaft 14 is mounted in the engaging opening 8 up to a prede-te-mined depth, and a retracted position at which the shaft 14, after retracted therefrom, is left apart from the engaging opening 8. Numerals 23, 23 denote respec-tive limi-t switches for detecting advanced and retracted positions. of the second movable table 12, namely, an advanced position at which the master 'sleève'~ is mounted on the main shaft 7 up to a predetermined depth, and a retracted position at which the sleeve 16, after retracted therefrom, is left apart from the main shaft 7.
Numerals 24, 24 denote respective limit switches for detect-ing advanced and retracted positions of the movable frame 10, namely, an advanced position at which the movable frame 10 is brought to enter the interspace left between the engine 4 and the transmission 5 and a retracted position at which the movable frame 10, after retracted therefrom, is left apart from the interspace.
Next, the operation of the foregoing embodying example will be explained as follows:
After the movable frame 10 is swung to move into the interspace to be positioned at the advanced position, the first movable table 11 and the second movable table 12 are moved in their respective forward directions while the master shaft 14 and the master sleeve 16 are~being turned by the rotation means 13, 17, so that the engaging part 14a of the master shaft 14 is mounted into the engaging opening 8 of the clutch unit 6 cons-tituting the rotary body and the engag-ing opening 16a of the master sleeve 16 is mounted on the engaging part 9 of the main shaft 7, respectively, and there-after the rotation of the master shaft 14 and that of the master sleeve 16 are stopped and also the respective advance movements of the first and second movable tables 11, 12 are stopped, and then respective phases of the master shaft 14 and the master sleeve 16 are detected by the respective first and second detecting means 15, 18, and while the phase of either one of the shaft 1~ and the sleeve 16, for instance, that of the master shaft 14 is taken as a base or reference, the master sleeve 16 is turned by a phase difference between the two by the rotation means 17, and thereby the phase of the master shaft 14 and that of the master sleeve 16 become adjusted one to another, that is, in alignment with each other, and consequently the clutch unit 6 and the main shaft 7 are brought into such a phase alignment condition that the engaging openings 8 thereof and the engaging part 9 thereof can be coupled with each other.
Thereafter, the first and second movable table 11, 12 are moved in their respective backward directions so that the master shaft-14 may be disengaged from the engaging open-ing 8 and the master sleeve 16 may be disengaged from the engaging part 9, respectively, and the movable frame 10 is then swung backwards to go out of the interspace-to.the retracted position, and thereafter the engine 4 constituting the first workpiece and the transmission 5 constituting the second _ g workplece are brought near one to another so that the engaglng part 9 of the maln shaft 7 may be coupled with the engaglng open-lng 8 of the clutch unlt 6.
Further, In the foregolng embodylng example, thls Inventlon apparatus Is applled to the case of phase ailgnment and coupllng between the spllne openlng and the spllne shaft. How-ever, thls Inventlon Is no-t llmlted to thls example, but can be applled to a phase adJustment and coupling between a key and a key groove or flute. Further, the above example Is explalned about the case of the englne and the transmlsslon used as the flrst workplece and the second workplece, respectlvely, but It Is of course that the flrst and second workpleces are not llmlted to them.
Another embodylng example shown In Flg. 4 to Flg. 6 shows assembllng of the englne 4 havlng a torque converter 6~, and the transmlsslon 5. The baslc constructlon thereof Is not dlfferent especlally from the above flrst embodylng example, and the correspondlng constltuent members same as or Identlcal wlth those of the above embodylng example are added wlth the same ref-erence numerals so that the explanatlon thereof may be omltted.
The torque converter 6', as shown In Flg. 6, Is con-nected to a cran~ shaft 4a of tile englne 4 through a drlve plate 4b and Is provlded thereln wlth a turblne wheel 6'a, a stator wheel 6'b and a pump wheel 6'c. A flrst spllne openlng 81, formed In the turblne wheel 6'a Is adapted to be coupled wlth a fIrst engaglng part 91~ comprlslng a splIne formed on the outer perlphery of the forward end portlon of the maln shaft 7 of the transmlsslon, a second spllne openlng 82 formed In the stator wheel 6'b Is adapted to be coupled wlth a second engaglng part 92 formed on a stator shaft 7a on the outer perlphery of the maln shaft 7, and a thlrd splIne openlng 83 formed on a pump gear 7b on the outer perlphery of the stator shaft 7a rotatably attached to the transmlsslon 5 Is adapted to be coupled wlth a thlrd ~2~

A fIrst master shaft 25 havlng two engaglng parts 25a, 25b correspondlng wlth the foregolng fIrst and second engaglng parts 91~ 92 and a flrst master sleeve 26 havlng an engaglng openlng 26a correspondlng wlth the foregolng thlrd spllne openlng 83 are rotatably supported on the bracket 11a provlded uprlght on the flrst movable table 11 so as to be posltloned on the same axlal llne, and also the bracket 11a Is provlded wlth a rotatlon means 27 for the shaft 25 comprlslng a motor havlng a plnlon gear 27a provlded on an output shaft and meshed wlth a gear 25c fIxed to the shaft 25, a flrst detectlng means 28 comprlslng an encoder provlded wlth a gear 28a on an Input shaft meshed wlth the plnlon 15 gear 27a, a rotatlon means 29 for the sleeve 26 comprlslng a motor havlng a plnlon gear 2sa on an output shaft meshed wlth a gear 26b flxed to the sleeve 26, and a second detectlng means 30 comprlslng an encoder havlng a gear 30a on an Input shaft meshed wlth the plnlon gear 29a. !n addltlon, a master sleeve 31 havlng two engaglng openlngs 31a,31b correspondlng wlth the foregolng fIrst and second splIne openlngs 81,82 and a hollow master shaft 32 havlng an engaglng part 32a correspondlng wlth the foregolng engaglng part 93 are rotatably supported on the bracket 12a pro-vlded uprlght on the second movable table 12 so as to be posi-tloned on the same axlal llne, and also the bracket 12a Is pro-vlded wlth a rotatlon means 33 for the sleeve 31 comprlslng a motor havlng a plnlon gear 33a on an output shaft meshed wlth a gear 31c fIxed to the sleeve 31, a thlrd detectlng means 34 com-prlslng an encoder havlng a gear 34a on an Input shaft thereof meshed wlth the plnlon gear 33a, a rotatlon means 35 for the shaft 32 comprlslng a motor havlng a plnlon gear 35a on an output shaft meshed wlth a gear 32b fIxed to the hollow shaft 32 and a fourth detectlng means 36 comprlslng an encoder havlng a gear 36a on an Input shaft meshed wlth the plnlon gear 35a.
9~:17 Furthermore, the engaglng openlngs 31a,31b of the sec-ond master sleeve 31 are, slnce the stator shaft 7a Is a statlon-ary shaft, so arranged as to have such a posltlonal relatlon wlth the stator shaft 7a that In the course of advanclng of the second movable table 12 before the forward end of the engaglng openlr-g 31b correspondlng wlth the second spllne openlng 82 reaches the second engaglng part 92~ the forward end of the engaglng openlng 31a correspondIng wlth the flrst spllne openlng 81, may reach the fIrst engaglng part 91~ and also before the engaglng openlng 31b Is coupled wlth the second engaglng part 92 and the rotatlon of the ~2~3~17 master sleeve 31 is stopped by the s-tator shaft 7a, the engaging opening 31a may be coupled with the firs-t engaging part 91 When the engine 4 and the transmission 5 are intended to be assembled together by the above apparatus, in the first place, the movable frame 10 is swung to enter the interspace at the advanced position, and thereafter, by the respective rotation means 27, 29, 33, 35, the first and second master shafts 25, 32 and the first and second master sleeves 26, 31 are rotated, and, during rotation thereof, the first movable table 11 and the second movable table 12 are moved to advance in their respective directions, and thereby the engaging parts 25a, 25b of the first master shaft 25 are coupled with the first and second spline open-ings 81, 82, respectively, and the engaging opening 26a of the first master sleeve 26 is coupled with the third engag-ing part 93, and, meanwhile, the engaging openings 31a, 31b of the second master sleeve 31 are coupled with the first and second engaging parts 91' 92' respectively, and the engaging part 32a of the second master shaft 32 is coupled with the third spline opening 83, and thereafter the rota-tions of the first and second master shafts 25, 32 and ro-ta-tions of the first and second master sleeves 26, 31 are stopped, and at the same time the advance movements of the first and second movable tables 11, 12 are stopped. There-after, the respective phases of the first and second master shafts 25, 32 and the first and second master sleeves 26, 31 are detected by the first to fourth detecting means 28, 30, 34, 36, and while the phase of the first mas-ter sleeve 26 is used as a base or reference, -the second mas-ter shaft 32 is turned by a phase difference by the rotation means 35, and also with the phase of the second master sleeve 31 be-ing used as a base or reference, the first master shaft 25 is turned by a phase difference by -the rotation means ?7, and thereby the respective phases of the first mas-ter sleeve 26 and the second master shaft 32 are brought into phase alignment with each other and those of the second master sleeve 31 and the first master shaft 25 are brought into phase alignment with each other, and consequently, the first and second spline openings 81, 8.2 and the third engaging part 93 on -the torque converter unit 6' side and the first and second engaging parts 91' 92 and the third spline open-ing 83 on the transmission ~5 side are brought into align-ment with each other in their respective phases. Thereafter, the first and second movable tables 11, 12 are moved back-wards, so that the first master shaft 25 and the first master sleeve 26 are disengaged from the first and second spline openings 81, 82 and the third engaging part 93 9 and the second master sleeve 31 and the second master shaft 32 are disengaged from the first and second engaging par-ts 91' 92 and the third spline opening 83. Thereafter, the movable frame 10 is swung to be ;moved ba¢kwards to the retract-ed position, and the engine 4 and the transmission 5 are brought near one to another so that the respective spline openings 81, 82, 83 and the respective engaging parts 91' ~;~94~7 92'93 are coupled with each other.
Thus, according to this invention, before a first work-piece and a second workpiece are brought near one to another for being assembled together, a movable frame is placed into an interspace left between the two workpieces, and thereby a rotary body provided on the first workpiece and the rotary shaft pro-vided on the second workpiece can be phased automatically so as to be able to be coupled with each other, and thereafter if the movable frame is retracted to leave the interspace and the first workpiece and the second workpiece are then brought near one to another, the rotary body provided on the first workpiece and the rotary shaft provided on the second workpiece can be phased auto-matically so that the recessed portion on one side and the pro-truded portion on the other side may become in alignment witheach other, and thereafter if the movable frame is retracted to leave the interspace and the first workpiece and the second work-piece are then brought near one to another, the rotary body and the rotary shaft can be coupled with each other assuredly, with-out mutual abutment obstruction, and thus automatization of assembling work becomes possible. Further, a second feature of this invention, automatization of assembling of an engine pro-vided with a torque converter, and the transmission can be achieved.
Hltherto, at the tIme of assembly of an englne provlded wlth a clutch unlt and a transmlssion, It has been the practlce to posltlon the englne and the transmlssion face -to face In i5 allgnment wlth each other on the same axlal llne and then brlng them near to each other at predetermlned mutual close posltlons, followlng whlch a phase adJustment Is carried out by manually turnlng the maln shaft such that teeth of a spllne engaglng por-tlon formed on the outer perlphery of a forward end portlon of the maln shaft may be adJusted Into allgnment wlth flutes between teeth of an engaglng openlng comprlslng a spline openlng formed on a boss of a clutch dlsc. Thereafter the englne and the trans-mlsslon are further brought near one to another so that the clutch dlsc and the maln shaft may be spllne-coupled.
~5 As mentloned above, the conventlonal phase adJustment has been carrled out manually, so that a poor workablllty results.
