Abstract

THE INVENTION RELATES TO THE MANUFACTURE OF AN ALCOHOL LEVEL INCLUDING A LEVEL TUBE MOUNTED IN A SUPPORT. TO MOUNT THE LEVEL 8 TUBE IN THE SUPPORT ELEMENT 9, TWO END CAPS 1 ARE EACH EQUIPPED WITH A DEEP SLOT 5 SO THAT THE CAPS CAN FIRST BE MOUNTED, WITHOUT THE TUBE 8, IN THE THE CUT 11 OF THE CORE 10 OF THE SUPPORT 9, THEIR INTERNAL ENDS 6 BEING CLEARED FROM THE RELATIVELY WIDE TERMINAL PART OF THE NOTCHES 12 IN THE CORE 11. THEN ALIGN THE TUBE 8 ON THE TWO CAPS 1 AND PUSH THESE- CI TO THE INSIDE TO RETAIN THE ENDS OF THE TUBE 8. APPLICATION TO THE MANUFACTURING OF THE ALCOHOL LEVELS.

Description

  The invention relates to a method for mounting a tu-

  be elongated with alcohol on a support element.

  According to the invention there is provided a method of mounting an elongated alcohol level tube on a support member, comprising the steps of: mounting two

  end caps, aligned one to the other

  on the other hand, a sufficient spacing

  being provided between the two caps eztré mitê so that one then inserts the tubae between them in V '

  aligning with them, then insert the

  between the two hoods, in the

  of those, and then move at least one of the

  in the direction of the other end cap so that the tube is held at its ends by the two end caps while the latter remain mounted on the end cap.
