Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for fixing a rod-shaped part, preferably with a cylindrical cross-section, in a comprehensive this holder.
  • DE 41 31 385 A1 describes a method for caulking a component in a particular hollow cylindrical receptacle, wherein the receiving side wall by means of a stamp partially cold-formed, such that it covers the component in sections, distributed over the circumference of the receptacle at least two punches inclined to the receiving side wall are driven into this.
  • this does not achieve sufficient tensile strength for all applications
  • US 2,675,774 A describes a method for producing cable connectors, wherein a flat board, which has elements for positive engagement at two opposite side edges, are formed by bending the side edges and shapes into a cylindrical cross section, which is secured by the intermeshing of the elements.
  • No. 4,543,297 A describes a corresponding procedure for producing a rigid metal ring.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a highly tensile connection between a rod-shaped part and its holder, which can be produced inexpensively, minimized component and even in already provided with a coating parts can be realized.
  • a further development of the invention is that the two opposite side edges are chamfered to one side, so that an inner side with a smaller area than that of the outside is formed.
  • an embodiment of the invention is that the rod-shaped part has a preferably radial profiling, in particular a thread.
  • the rod-shaped part is a threaded rod.
  • the holder 1 for the rod-shaped part 2 is produced, which e.g. can be done by punching.
  • the first still flat holder 1 has elements 5, 6 for surface meshing, wherein the protruding element 5 can engage in the corresponding recess 6 and the resulting connection to train is loaded.
  • elements 5, 6 may be distributed in a different form over the side edges 3, 4.
  • the inner side 7 has a smaller area than the outside 8. This ensures that when creating the connection between the holder 1 and the rod-shaped part 2, the side edges 3, 4 abut on their entire height and thus a better connection is achieved than in straight side edges 3, 4th
  • the side edges 3, 4 are bent up, so that the inside 7 is arranged in the interior of the now U-shaped holder 1.
  • This bending up can e.g. done by roll forming.
  • the holder 1 is formed to a rod-shaped part 2 corresponding cross-sectional shape, which means in the present example that the holder 1 receives a circular cross-section, as it also has the rod-shaped part 2.
  • the elements 5, 6 already interlock, so that the cross section is substantially fixed.
  • the cross section of the holder 1 is still so large that it is possible to introduce the rod-shaped part 2 through one of the open sides in the preformed holder 1, which takes place after completion of the shaping.
  • FIG. 1e Another pressing operation (Fig. 1e) is made which is offset from the first pressing by 90 °, i. takes place in the region of the opening 9 formed by the abutting side edges 3, 4 and of the region 10 opposite thereto.
  • the opening 9 is closed by the flowing material and the holder 1 tensile strength connected to the rod-shaped part 2.
  • the method is particularly suitable for fastening threaded rods in a holder, since the material of the holder can flow into the radial profiling of the threaded rod during Ver rempligens, whereby a positive connection between the two parts is achieved. Even with parts already provided with a coating (e.g., chromated), the method can be used, which is advantageous for many applications.
  • a coating e.g., chromated
  • FIG. 2 shows a threaded rod 2 produced by the method according to the invention, which is fastened in a holder 1.
