摘要： A method and apparatus for forming rivet joints with a desired amount of clearance to allow pivotal motion of the parts interconnected by such joints. Parts to be riveted together are aligned with each other, and a rivet is placed into aligned holes. A parts clamp urges the parts and a preformed head of the rivet against a rivet support anvil to establish an initial condition. A parts support anvil is placed in a required position with respect to the rivet support anvil prior to formation of the second head on the opposite end of the rivet, to provide the desired amount of clearance. The parts support anvil is moved by pushing against a set of arched leaf springs to adjust their effective length, using a hydraulic motor controlled in response to an electrical signal from a transducer that measures movement of parts by the parts support anvil.

摘要： An apparatus for installing rivets or other fasteners through a workpiece includes an automated machine disposed on one side of the workpiece and a hand-held tool that is manipulated by a single worker located on the opposite side of the workpiece. The automated machine includes an end effector supporting tools such as a drill and a riveter. The automated machine also includes a guide structure adapted to be releasably affixed to the workpiece, and a carriage that travels along the guide structure and supports the end effector so that the end effector can be positioned in various locations along the surface of the workpiece where fasteners are to be installed. The end effector includes an electromagnetic clamping device, and the hand-held tool includes a magnetic clamping block that is attracted by the clamping device to clamp the workpiece therebetween. The end effector generates a positioning signal and the hand-held tool includes a detector for detecting the positioning signal. The detector is operable to generate guidance information telling the person operating the hand-held tool where to move the hand-held tool so as to align the tool with the end effector of the automated machine. Once the hand-held tool is aligned with the end effector, the electromagnetic clamping device is activated to clamp the workpiece, and then the end effector tools are operated to drill a hole and to install a rivet or other fastener into the hole.

摘要： A device to hold roller chain is disclosed for holding roller chain in position for repair, maintenance, and the like. The device includes first and second jaws which are generally parallel. Each jaw has first and second ends, inner and outer faces, and two side faces. Each of the jaws has a primary gripping recess in the inner face near one end to grip the roller chain. Each jaw may also have a secondary gripping recess at the opposite end of the jaw. First and second shank members extend between the jaws and through at least one of the jaws. Each shank member has a cylindrical shank with external threads. The device has two shank channels, with each shank channel extending from the inner to the outer face of one of the jaws. The shanks pass through the shank channels. A pair of nut members engage the threads of the shanks adjacent to the outer faces. A coil spring surrounds each shank between the first and second jaws and biases the jaws away from each other. The shank members and nut members allow the jaws to be adjusted to grip the roller chain, while the coil springs keep the device stable.
