APPARATUS FOR JOINING TOGETHER OVERLAPPED SHEET MATERIALS, AT LEAST ONE OF WHICH IS THERMOPLASTIC, COMPRISING (A) BACK-UP MEANS ENGAGEABLE WITH THE OVERLAPPED SHEET MATERIALS AT ONE SIDE OF THE LATTER DURING THE CONTINUOUS ADVANCEMENT OF THE SHEET MATERIALS; AND (B) A ROTARY VIBRATOR MOUNTED AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SHEET MATERIALS FOR ROTATING ABOUT AN AXIS EXTENDING TRANSVERSELY WITH RESPECT TO THE DIRECTION OF SAID CONTINUOUS ADVANCEMENT AND INCLUDING A. A MAGNETROSTRICTIVE BODY OF GENERALLY CIRCULAR CROSS-SECTION, B. WINDINGS ON SAID BODY TO ESTABLISH ALTERNATING ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS PRODUCING RADIAL VIBRATIONS IN SAID BODY AT THE FUNDAMENTAL MODE OF VIBRATIONS OF THE LATTER, AND C. AT LEAST ONE TOOL MEMBER JOINED TO THE PERIPHERY OF SAID BODY FOR RADIAL VIBRATION WITH THE LATTER AND FOR ROLLING CONTACT WITH THE OVERLAPPED SHEET MATERIALS AGAINST SAID BACK-UP MEANS.
