Abstract
A box holder swingably mounted on a frame is angularly movable between a box receiving position and a box attaching position. The box holder has a casing, an anvil slidably disposed in the casing, and a pair of gripping jaws angularly movably disposed in the casing for gripping the box therebetween against an end of the anvil. A first fluid cylinder is disposed on the frame for pressing the anvil in the box attaching position. An ultrasonic horn mounted for movement toward and away from the box holder is pressed by a second fluid cylinder toward the anvil holder in the box attaching position to grip the box between the end of the anvil and the ultrasonic horn. While the box is gripped between the anvil and the ultrasonic horn, the ultrasonic horn is energized to apply ultrasonic vibrations to weld the box to the box pin inserted therein.
