摘要： The fastener of the fastener and panel assembly includes a body portion received in a panel opening and a tubular barrel having a free end extending radially inwardly and a midportion bowed outwardly having a diameter greater than the panel opening. The body portion has an outside diameter greater than the inside diameter of the panel opening to form an interference fit providing torque resistance and preventing push-through of the fastener. The method of installing a fastener includes inserting the fastener body portion into the panel opening with the barrel received in a first die member and the body portion supported in the panel opening by a second die member. The end of the barrel is deformed radially inwardly and toward the body portion by the first die member and the midportion of the barrel is deformed radially outwardly preventing withdrawal of the fastener element from the panel. The second die member simultaneously deforms the body of the fastener radially outwardly to form the interference fit with the panel.
摘要翻译： 紧固件和面板组件的紧固件包括容纳在面板开口中的主体部分和管状筒体，其具有径向向内延伸的自由端和向外弯曲的具有大于面板开口直径的中间部分。 主体部分具有大于面板开口的内径的外径，以形成过盈配合，提供扭矩阻力并防止紧固件的穿通。 安装紧固件的方法包括将紧固件主体部分插入到面板开口中，其中筒体容纳在第一模具构件中，并且主体部分由第二模具构件支撑在面板开口中。 筒的端部通过第一模具构件径向向内并朝向主体部分变形，并且筒的中间部分径向向外变形，从而阻止紧固件从面板上拉出。 第二模具构件同时使紧固件的主体径向向外变形以形成与面板的过盈配合。

摘要： An assembly line for continuously manufacturing fasteners from a rod with a groove for receiving a wire for retaining the fasteners in a strip includes a receiver for receiving the rod. A die press is arranged to receive the rod from the receiver and includes a piercing member for piercing an aperture in each fastener and a cutting member for cutting each fastener from the rod. A tapping member provides ribs to an inner wall of the aperture formed in the fastener by the piercing member. An inspector inspects the internal rib formed into the inner wall of the aperture disposed in the fastener verifying exactness of the aperture and the rib. A wire inserter inserts the wire into the groove forming a strip of connected fasteners. The inserter receives the fasteners sequentially from the inspector after verification of the exactness of the aperture disposed in each fastener.
