Definitions
- the present invention relates to a punch riveting apparatus for connecting at least two components and to a production apparatus having such a punch riveting apparatus.
- Methods and devices for punch riveting serve for connecting at least two in a connection region in particular flat trained components (joint partners).
- a punch riveting method is characterized in that a pre-punching of the components to be joined together is not required. Rather, a rivet is pressed by means of a punch or a punch tool in the at least two components, being ensured by a correspondingly shaped counter-holder, for example.
- a die which cooperates with the punch tool, that the rivet in a certain way deformed within the components to be joined together to produce a positive and positive connection between the components while avoiding penetration of the component facing away from the rivet.
- ultrasonic punch riveting methods or devices are known in which a vibration generator, such as.
- An ultrasonic generator is used to enable one or more components in the connection of the components in vibration. By this vibration, for example, the expended force is reduced to push the rivet.
- a punch riveting device serves for connecting at least two components and has a punch, a counter-holder, a holding-down device and a vibration generator.
- the punch, the hold-down and the counter-holder are arranged to each other such that the at least two components between the punch and the counter-holder and at the same time between the hold-down and the counter-holder can be arranged.
- the punch and the oscillator are coupled together and form a vibration system and there is provided a drive to which the punch and the hold-down are coupled so that by means of the drive, a force on the punch and on the hold-down in the direction of the components is exercisable.
- the holding-down device is coupled to the oscillating system in such a way that an oscillation amplitude of the holding-down device in the area of contact with one of the components is at most 25%, in particular at most 10%, of a vibration amplitude of the stamp in the contact area with a rivet.
- the holding-down device is thus coupled to the oscillating system in such a way that only a minimum, preferably no, oscillation can be transmitted from the oscillating system to the holding-down device.
- the vibration amplitude of the blank holder in the contact area with one of the components is 0% (i.e., node) of the vibration amplitude of the punch in the contact area with the rivet, and no vibration is transmittable from the vibrating system to the blank holder.
- a rivet both a so-called semi-tubular rivet and a so-called solid rivet can be used.
- the hold-down is suitably coupled to the vibrating system formed by the vibrator and the punch, which causes the punch to vibrate as desired, but not the hold-down.
- a punch riveting device can be provided with only one drive, which is therefore simple and inexpensive.
- the hold-down is in a region of the vibration system in which a vibration amplitude of the vibration system at most 10%, in particular at most 5%, the vibration amplitude of the punch in the contact region with the rivet, coupled to the vibrating system.
- the hold-down device is coupled to the vibration system in a region of the vibration system in which an oscillation of the vibration system has the lowest possible amplitude.
- the oscillation amplitude of the oscillating system in this area is preferably 0% (ie vibration node) of the oscillation amplitude of the stamp in the area of contact with the rivet.
- such a vibration system furthermore has a booster and / or a sonotrode, in particular also only a sonotrode, via which the ram is coupled to the vibration generator.
- the stamp can also be designed as a part of the sonotrode.
- a vibration is generated by the vibration generator and via the booster, the amplitude of the vibration is translated. Depending on the geometric design, the amplitude can be reduced, constantly transmitted, but usually translated and thus increased.
- the sonotrode forms a resonator, where the amplitude is usually further increased. Overall, this forms a standing longitudinal vibration in the vibrating system. This standing oscillation thus also has points or areas in which the amplitude is zero or at least almost zero.
- a holding device which is fastened to the drive, and to which the oscillating system is attached.
- the holding device surrounds the vibrator at least partially.
- the holding-down device is fastened to the holding device separately from the oscillating system.
- both the oscillating system and the hold-down to the holding device and the holding device are attached to the drive.
- a power transmission from the drive to the punch and the hold-down is possible.
- no direct contact between the oscillating system and hold-down is given by the separate attachment of the oscillating system and hold-down on the fixture, but there is only an indirect contact on the holding device, which can also be kept low with a suitable design of the holding device. In this way, a vibration transmission from the vibration system to the holddown is largely avoided.
- the oscillating system is also fastened to the holding device in a region of the oscillating system in which a vibration of the oscillating system has the lowest possible, in particular no, amplitude, a vibration transmission to the holding-down device is further reduced.
- care must be taken that the vibration system is fastened near the vibration generator or remote from the punch on the holding device, since an amplitude is generally significantly lower than in the area of the punch.
- the hold-down device is coupled to the oscillating system in a region of the stamp in which a vibration amplitude of the oscillating system has at most 10%, in particular at most 5%, of the oscillation amplitude of the stamp in the contact region of the rivet.
- the holding-down device is coupled to the oscillating system in a region of the stamp in which an oscillation of the oscillating system has the lowest possible amplitude.
- the oscillation amplitude of the oscillating system in this range is 0% (ie Vibration node) of the vibration amplitude of the punch in the contact area with the rivet.
- the hold-down on a spring unit via which it is coupled to the oscillating system.
- the spring unit can have, for example, a cylindrical helical compression spring or disk springs or an elastomeric spring.
- a vibration-damping or sound-insulating coating for example a suitable lacquer, on the hold-down device, in particular in a region where the hold-down device is coupled to the oscillating system or other components.
- a hold-down force can be adapted during the indentation of the rivet.
- the spring constant can be suitably selected so that, for example, hold-down forces between 2 kN and 8 kN are obtained.
- the spring constant runs, for example, linearly with a cylindrical helical compression spring, degressive with disc springs or progressively with pressure-loaded elastomer springs.
- the spring unit has a damping material which is suitable for reducing an amplitude of the vibrations generated by the vibration generator to at least half.
- the spring unit may, for example, be an elastomeric spring, ie an elastic material which transmits the linear movement of the drive, but not the generally high-frequency oscillation generated by the oscillator.
- a damping material for example.
- An elastomer can be used.
- the vibration generator is designed as a sound generator, in particular as an ultrasonic generator, more particularly a piezo converter. This is a simple method for vibration generation.
- the vibration system further comprises a booster and / or a sonotrode, via which the punch is coupled to the vibration generator.
- the stamp is formed as a part of the sonotrode. This is a common and easy to use arrangement for a vibration system for a punch riveter.
