Patent ID: 6986827

Claim:
A method for bonding a plurality of non-magnetic members comprising the steps of: (1) mating non-magnetic members via an uncured adhesive interposed between their surfaces to be bonded; (2) applying pressure to the mated portions of said non-magnetic members between a pressing magnet jig and a pressure-receiving, soft-magnetic jig; and (3) curing said adhesive while applying pressure, wherein a cushioning member is interposed only on a single side of said mated portions of said non-magnetic members between a pressing surface of said pressing magnet jig and outside surfaces of the mated portions of said non-magnetic members so as to subject the whole bonding surfaces to contacting uniformly with said adhesive, and wherein said cushioning member comprises two separate parts each interposed on the single side of the mated portions of the non-magnetic member between the pressing surface of the pressing magnetic jig and the outside surfaces of the mated portions of the non-magnetic members, said two separate parts being spaced apart sufficiently from each other to subject the whole/bonding surfaces to contact uniformly.
