Abstract
A stand and method for disassembling structures, such as automobile radiators, by separation of first and second parts thereof that are joined by a meltable bonding medium such as solder. The disassembly stand is of a simple frame construction that is provided with an adjusting platform for raising, lowering, and supporting the structure to be separated and clamps for freely suspending the structure with its joint to be separated located so as to be acted upon by a room-shaped heating structure, according to a preferred embodiment. In accordance with an aspect of the method, opposed forces are caused to act upon the parts to be separated while the joint by which they are connected is simultaneously heated along substantially the entire length thereof.
