Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de fixation de première et seconde pièces (20 et 12) ensemble par l'intermédiaire d'un sphéroïde (10), la première pièce (20) présentant une ouverture (22) légèrement plus petite que le sphéroïde (10), alors que la seconde pièce (12) et le sphéroïde (10) comprennent chacun une matière fusible par ultrasons. Le système comprend un moyen (W) destiné à supporter les deux pièces (20 et 12) dans une relation superposée de sorte que l'ouverture (22) se trouvant dans la première partie (20) recouvre une partie de ladite seconde pièce (12), un moyen (C) destiné à contenir le sphéroïde (10) pris parmi une pluralité de sphéroïdes, ainsi que des moyens (R, A) comprenant une corne de concentrations (14) destinée à appliquer une énergie ultrasonique audit sphéroïde (10), ladite corne (14) comportant un bout (18) doté d'une dépression hémisphérique (16) reliée à une source de vide (V) recevant et maintenant de manière libérable ledit sphéroïde (10). Ledit système comprend également des moyens (R, A) déplaçant (M) ladite corne (14) du conteneur (C) au moyen (W) de support des pièces.
