A joint molding apparatus for molding joints between composite panels comprising inflatable molding bladders connectable to a source of pressurized fluid. A bladder support structure supports the bladders in respective positions adjacent an intersection of panels where, when inflated, the bladders support a joint formed at the intersection of panels while an uncured portion of the joint is curing to hold the joint in a desired configuration at the panel intersection. 복합 패널들 사이에 조인트를 몰딩하기 위한 조인트 몰딩 장치는 가압 유체 공급장치에 연결할 수 있는 팽창가능한 몰딩 블래더를 포함한다. 블래더 지지 구조체는 블래더를 패널의 교차부에 인접하는 각각의 위치에서 지지하고, 블래더는, 팽창될 때, 조인트의 미경화 부분이 조인트를 원하는 형태로 패널 교차부에 유지하도록 경화되고 있는 동안 패널의 교차부에서 형성된 조인트를 지지한다.
