Abstract
An assembly 10 comprising a battery box 11 and a lid 12. The lid 12 defines a well 13 for receiving a secondary closure 14, with the well providing fining access to the battery box 11. The secondary closure is applied to a battery box lid by a secondary closure applying apparatus. This comprises essentially three units: a lid and battery box assembly locating unit 16, a heated platen unit 17 and a closure applicator 18. By engaging lid 12, rather tan box 11, any offset positioning of the lid relative to the box, is substantially removed. Orientation of platen and closure 14 is made in response to the detected position of the well 13 and/or lid 12.
