Disclosed are a method and a device for mounting a fastening element (12, 12′) on a part, e.g. a sheet metal part (13, 13′). Said fastening element comprises an axis of symmetry (18), a head piece (14) with a contact surface (22) that comes in contact with the part (13), a fastening section encompassing a thread (15, 15′), and at least one undercut (24, 82) which accommodates the material of the part. The material of the part is pressed against the contact surface and into the undercut by means of a first tool (26-26′″″) which is provided with a female die that is suitable for embodying the fastening element. The inventive method and device are characterized in that a local force (K) is applied to the head piece (14) of the fastening element (12, 12′) or to the tool (26-26′″″) at the side of the axis of symmetry (18) and moves in a circular manner around said axis of symmetry (arrow 43) while performing a relative advancing movement (arrow 28) between the tool (26-26′″″) and the fastening element (12, 12′), between which the part (13, 13′) is positioned, in order to press the material of the part into the undercut (24, 82).

The invention relates to a rivet nut (10) with a base part (12) and a cylindrical rivet section (14), the base part having a central threaded cylinder (16), an annular contact surface (18) that is coaxial to the threaded cylinder in a plane (20) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (22) of the threaded cylinder, and that has an axially aligned annular groove (24), said groove being arranged radially inside the annular contact surface and radially outside the cylindrical rivet section and said groove blending, on the radially inner side, into the outer surface of the cylindrical rivet section, and antirotation ribs (42) being provided in the area of the annular groove. The invention is characterized in that the annular groove, when seen in an axial cross-sectional plane, has a U-shaped cross-section with a radially outer lateral wall (30) which is relatively steep and which has, at the steepest point (33), an inclination to the center longitudinal axis of the rivet nut in the range of approximately 45° to approximately −20°, preferably of approximately 30° to approximately 0°. The volume of the annular groove is chosen in such a manner that across a range of sheet thicknesses adapted to the respective thread size there is room for the volume of the respective folded region of the rivet section inside the annular recess (80) that is formed by molding the sheet part (60) into the annular groove of the element and that it does not project beyond the side (82) of the molded sheet facing away from the annular contact surface.

The invention relates to a method for producing hollow body elements (200), for example, nut elements which are applied to components which are normally made of steel (280), in particular, for producing hollow body elements having an essentially quadratic or rectangular external profile (202). Said method consists of cutting individual elements of a profile in the form of a profile rod (1) or a winding after holes (204) have previously been stamped in the profile, a threaded cylinder (206) is subsequently, optionally, formed using a follow-on composite tool (10) which consists of several working stations. The invention is characterized in that a penetrating process and a punching process are carried out in the working station. The invention also relates to hollow body elements (200), components, follow-on composite tools (10) and rolling mills (600, 602).
摘要:
A first and second component joint includes using a fastener having a first end, and a flange having a diameter greater than a tubular barrel portion. A second end having a second tubular barrel portion merges into a shoulder of a flange part having a greater diameter than the barrel portion. The first tubular barrel portion is deformed radially outwardly sandwiching the first component between the flange and the first barrel portion. The second end of the fastener is introduced through a hole in the second component by applying the second component to the first component so the shoulder of the flanged part abuts the second component spacing the second component from the first component. The fastener device is fastened to the second component by deforming the second tubular barrel portion radially outwardly sandwiching the second component between the shoulder and the tubular barrel portion.

摘要:
A method of connecting a first component and a second component with the aid of an auxiliary joining part, wherein the auxiliary joining part is formed from a pin and a plate. A position of intended fracture is present between the plate and the pin. The first component, the second component and the auxiliary joining part are brought into a stacked arrangement such that the plate contacts the first component and the pin projects away from the side of the plate remote from the first component. A force is exerted on the pin of the auxiliary joining part in the direction towards the stacked components which leads to a fracture at a position of intended fracture and the pin is used in order to pierce slugs from the stacked components. The end of the pin which is pressed through the second component, and/or a washer which is optionally provided there, is deformed in order to provide a form-locked connection to the second component or to a washer which is provided there. Furthermore, an auxiliary joining part is claimed.
