Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pneumatic-hydraulic blind riveting device for setting blind rivets consisting of a rivet sleeve and a tear-off mandrel, with a pneumatic cylinder in which a pressure piston and a plunger which is rigidly connected to it and sealed and plunges into a subsequent hydraulic chamber can be moved back and forth, and with a device head adjoining the hydraulic chamber, in which a pulling device carrying the chuck mechanism for gripping the pulling mandrel can be moved back and forth pneumatically and hydraulically, wherein a through-channel for the ejection of the pulling mandrels torn off during the riveting process is provided in the device head.
  • Such a blind riveting tool is e.g. B. known from DE-PS 2 419 190.
  • the traction consists essentially of a piston which can be sealed in a cylinder space of the device head, which rests in the rest position of the device on a stop formed in the cylinder space and which has a piston shaft on each side, of which the piston located on the side of the mouthpiece of the device head Carries the feed mechanism and the other protrudes into an opening provided on the side of the device head opposite the mouthpiece and aligned with it.
  • the passage channel for the ejection of the mandrel torn off during each riveting process passes through the piston and its two piston shafts.
  • the cylinder space of the device head is connected to a hydraulic chamber on the side of the piston facing the mouthpiece.
  • the compressed air preferably escapes from the pneumatic cylinder via a quick exhaust valve, and all parts can be returned to their starting position.
  • the torn mandrel is then still in the passage channel of the pull piece formed from the piston displaceable in the device head together with its piston shafts, so that the operator of the device must first make a pivoting movement in order to eject the mandrel from the passage channel in the device head.
  • a device has therefore already been proposed in which, behind the clamping jaws of the chuck mechanism, an air duct connected to a compressed air source opens into the passageway of the blind riveting device in such a way that a compressive force is exerted on the mandrel lying in the passageway, which compresses the torn mandrel into one at the end of the passage channel arranged container transported.
  • This known device has the disadvantage that the compressed air supply takes place in the area of the feed mechanism, which requires special training of the feed mechanism and the actuating device for the feed mechanism. Furthermore, the air connection must participate in the axial movement of the chuck mechanism during the riveting process, so that a particularly robust design of the feed line is necessary.
  • Another disadvantage of the known device is that the effect of the compressed air introduced into the passage channel is also directed against the newly inserted mandrel for the next riveting process, so that it can be pushed out of the chuck mechanism again.
  • DE-OS 2 827 904 which is designed as an additional device for pneumatically operated blind riveting devices and consists of a collecting container which can be attached tightly to the device head of the blind riveting device and which, preferably in its removable cover, has a vacuum system operated by compressed air contains, which can be connected via a connecting line to a compressed air source, which is preferably also that of the blind riveting tool.
  • a vacuum is generated in this container by the vacuum system contained in the collecting container, which then pulls the torn mandrel out of the chuck mechanism through the passage channel in the device head and hurls it into the collecting container.
  • this additional device practically any (pneumatically) operated blind riveting tool can be retrofitted in a simple manner by only placing the container containing the vacuum system tightly on the device head and a connecting line between the connection of the vacuum system and the compressed air source, that is to say preferably the part of the connecting nipple which carries compressed air of the blind riveting tool is connected.
  • this additional device also consumes additional energy because compressed air must not only be provided for the actual riveting process, but also for the ejection or suction of the torn mandrel, and the production and supply of compressed air is known expensive.
  • the vacuum system To the negative pressure in the collecting container during operation the vacuum system must be constantly supplied with compressed air; this creates a u. U.
  • connection line between the vacuum system in the Aultang container and the compressed air connection which must always be installed on the outside of the device when retrofitting a blind riveting device, can be a hindrance.
  • the continuous operation of the vacuum system can result in the advantage that a blind rivet inserted into the mouthpiece is held in the mouthpiece by the negative pressure generated in the device head before its mandrel is gripped by the chuck mechanism.
  • this small advantage is generally not related to the high energy consumption and the annoyance caused by the constantly generated compressed air. In certain ways of working, it can even turn into a disadvantage; if the blind rivets are inserted into the material to be riveted, the rivet can be pulled out of the rivet hole when the blind riveting tool approaches due to the continuous operation of the vacuum system.
  • the object of the invention is, while avoiding the disadvantages described, to integrate a device for ejecting or extracting the mandrel torn off during the riveting process into the blind riveting device.
  • the suction or blowing out of the mandrel should take place automatically after each riveting process, but as energy-saving as possible.
  • the compressed air required for the riveting process should also be able to be used for suctioning off the rivet mandrels torn off during the riveting process.
  • the device should also be designed for certain applications so that it can keep the rivet ready in the mouthpiece even before the riveting process with a constant metered supply of compressed air.
  • the entire blind riveting device should be compact in terms of its outer dimensions and relatively small, and light in weight, yet powerful, and in particular be able to process all commercially available rivets with rivet diameters of up to 1/4 inch.
  • the compressed air can preferably be introduced into the passage channel through a nozzle located behind the mandrel in the ejection direction.
  • the suction device for the torn off mandrels is thus integrated into the actual blind riveting device, and the compressed air that is necessarily required to carry out the riveting process is advantageously used twice, namely for the riveting process and for suctioning the mandrel.
  • the suction process is carried out automatically after the riveting process, but saves energy because compressed air does not have to be supplied separately for suction.
  • the intermittent operation of the compressed air for riveting and suctioning the mandrel also saves energy compared to continuous operation according to the prior art; the noise and train annoyance of the operator is greatly reduced.
  • a nozzle tube is arranged concentrically in the passage channel to the inner wall of the passage channel, the end facing away from the chuck mechanism is widened radially in the direction of the wall of the passage channel and thus forms the nozzle, wherein the compressed air through a bore in the wall of the passage channel into the Gap between the inner wall of the passage and the nozzle tube can be introduced.
  • the passage channel is formed by a hollow cylindrical pulling element arranged coaxially in the device head, which carries the chuck mechanism at one end and a pulling piston which can be displaced tightly in the device head at its other end, and in from the side of the pulling piston the tension piece inserted pressure tube that pierces the end cover of the device head.
  • the nozzle tube can rest with one end sealingly on a pressure bush arranged inside the tension piece, resting on the chuck jaws of the chuck mechanism and with its widened end forming the nozzle, it can protrude into the pressure tube, a compression spring surrounding the nozzle tube between the pressure bushing and the pressure tube is arranged.
  • the suction device can be set up in an advantageous manner using components already present in the blind riveting device and inserting only relatively few additional components and thus in a space-saving and cost-effective manner in the blind riveting device.
  • the construction of the blind riveting device remains compact despite the additionally integrated device and is nevertheless powerful.
  • a further piston is preferably assigned to the pull piston, by means of which the compression spring can be relieved. This avoids a lifting movement of the traction piston when the riveting tool is depressurized, which could lead to a vacuum or to air ingress in the hydraulic chamber.
  • the tension piece can advantageously be surrounded by a cylinder sleeve below the tension piston at its end facing the traction piston has a radially inward shoulder against which the traction element can be moved tightly and, moreover, leaves an annular space for the traction element, into which the housing bore for supplying the compressed air opens;
  • Ring piston be surrounded, which is located in the starting position of the pull piece outside the cylinder sleeve and creates a connection between the space surrounding it and the bore in the pull piece and in the retracted state of the pull piece is inside the cylinder sleeve and seals the bore against the surrounding space abuts the wall of the cylinder sleeve.
  • the compressed air introduced to carry out the riveting process and, after completion of the riveting process, redirected by reversing a valve into the aforementioned housing bores, is initially briefly stored and only admitted into the nozzle according to the invention when the pulling device and with it the chuck mechanism still holding the torn off pulling mandrel have almost returned to their starting position, so that the suction effect of the compressed air emerging from the nozzle only comes into effect when the torn mandrel is released by the chuck mechanism.
  • the housing bore guiding the compressed air for the suction process opens via a puncture in the cylinder sleeve into the annular space formed in the retracted state of the pull piece between the shoulder of the cylinder sleeve lying close to it and the annular piston.
  • the reversed compressed air is initially also stored in this annular space, and the compressed air thus acting on the annular piston advantageously supports the return of the pulling device and the chuck mechanism to its starting position before the compressed air is passed on to the nozzle in the passage channel.
  • the passage channel preferably opens into a collecting container which is mounted on the device head and has a connection to the atmosphere; the torn-off and extracted mandrels can be collected in a collecting container in a known manner.
  • the blind riveting device should not only allow the torn rivet mandrel to be sucked backwards into the collecting container provided at the end opposite the mouthpiece of the device head, but also to allow the torn rivet mandrel to be ejected forward through the mouthpiece. Therefore, in a further embodiment of the invention, after unscrewing a sleeve containing the mouthpiece and the chuck mechanism and screwable to the device head, the nozzle tube can be removed through the pulling element, and the blind riveting device can thus be operated without the nozzle tube with a mandrel ejection through the mouthpiece.

  • the mandrel of a blind rivet to be riveted is now inserted through the mouthpiece 2 into the chuck mechanism 5, 6.
  • the working stroke (advance) of the blind riveting device is triggered, which is why reference is also made to FIG. 3b.
  • the valve body of the actuating valve 91 which is designed as a 2/2-way valve, is lifted from its seat by depressing the control button 90, and the 4/2-way valve 77 is reversed into its actuating position via the control line 76 by a pneumatic negative control.
  • the two pneumatic chambers 83 and 88 are pneumatically separated from each other in the cylinder pot 64 and the sewer pipe 80 is connected to the compressed air connection.
  • Compressed air thus flows through the duct pipe 80 into the pneumatic chamber 88 located behind the pressure piston 67 and acts on the surface F1 below (on the rear) of the pressure piston 67 and moves it together with the plunger 69 firmly connected to it in the direction of arrow P in FIG. 2a.
  • the plunger 69 is guided tightly on the reinforced free end of the compensating piston 66; at the same time, the compensation piston 66, which is open at the bottom of the cylinder pot, ensures pressure compensation in the interior, which is widened by the movement of the tachometer piston 69 and is determined by plunger piston 69 and compensation piston 66.
  • the plunger 69 penetrates into the hydraulic chamber 49 filled with hydraulic medium.
  • the throttle disk 58 of the throttle check valve 50 is brought into contact with its seat on the valve body 55 by hydraulic action, and this displaced during the further movement of the pressure piston 67 and plunger 69 as far as the stop on the flange 62 Hydraulic medium grossed throttled through the small oil 59 of the throttle plate 58, the passage bore 57 of the throttle valve body 55 and the GoHousbohrung 51 in the hydraulic chamber 52 dos housing part 1 and acts there on the annular surface of the pull piston 15 in the pulling direction.
  • the chuck mechanism 5, 6 carrying pull piece 4 and also the restoring piston 34 resting thereon with the pressure tube 26 against the pneumatic force acting on the restoring piston 34 are moved in the pulling direction by the stroke required for the riveting process (approximately 22 mm); the compressed air previously introduced into the space between the end cover 30 and the return piston 34 is thereby displaced.
  • the pulling mandrel of the blind rivet gripped by the chuck mechanism 5, 6 is torn off at its predetermined breaking point, forming the riveting point.
  • the annular piston 18 attached to its periphery also enters the inside of the cylinder sleeve 9 and lies sealingly against its inner surface.
  • FIGS. 2a and b This intermediate position of the blind riveting tool after the riveting process has just been carried out is shown in FIGS. 2a and b.
  • the 4/2-way valve 77 switches back to its starting position, again establishing a connection between the two pneumatic chambers 83 and 88 of the cylinder pot 64 is produced, and the return of the blind riveting device to its starting or standby position, shown schematically in FIG. 3a, begins.
  • the compressed air previously introduced into the rear pneumatic chamber 88 now also reaches the front pneumatic chamber 83 and from there via the bores 84, 84 'and the puncture 86 in the cylinder sleeve 9 into the during the pulling movement between the shoulder 10 of the cylinder sleeve 9 and the annular piston 18 created, sealed annular space 93.
  • the annular piston 18 is arranged with its annular surface F4 pressurized by compressed air.
  • the compressed air from the previous riveting process is in the switching position described above, in which the cylinder spaces 83, 87 and 88 are connected, at the two ring surfaces F1 'and F1 of the pressure piston 67 and the ring surface F4 of the ring piston 18 at the same time.
  • compressed air is always seen on the return piston 34 with its annular surface F3 'via lines 82, 40, 45 and 47, while on the other hand the hydraulic medium acts against the annular surface F3 of the tension piston 15.
  • the ring surfaces F1 ', F1, F2, F3, F3' and F4 are preferably flat surfaces.
  • the escaping compressed air creates a suction directed in the direction of the collecting container 31, which sucks off the mandrel released by the chuck jaws 6 and conveys it into the collecting container 31.
  • the tension piece 4, the pressure bush 23, the nozzle tube 24 and the pressure tube 26, which are arranged coaxially to one another and one behind the other in the device head A, thereby form the passage 94 for the torn mandrel which is continuous from the chuck mechanism 5, 6 to the collecting container 31.
  • the compressed air supplied via the hose connection is sufficient as a result of the metered Adjustment of the pressure relief valve 92 in order, on the one hand, as described above, to hold the return piston 34 in the advanced position in contact with the pulling piston 15 and thus the blind riveting tool in the ready position, and on the other hand through the outlet from the nozzle 27 via the above-mentioned path in the passage 94 and thus to generate a negative pressure on the mouthpiece 2, which holds the blind rivet inserted into the mouthpiece 2 in place, but then a constant, however h Limited compressed air supply is required.
  • the blind riveting device according to the invention can thus be converted by a simple measure - turning the adjusting screw 92 '- from a device with intermittent compressed air supply, in which the inserted blind rivets are not held in the mouthpiece 2 by negative pressure, into a device with a constant, but in comparison compressed air supply reduced to the prior art, in which the blind rivets are held in the mouthpiece 2 by negative pressure.
  • the blind riveting device according to the invention can be further transformed in an advantageous manner. Under certain conditions, e.g. B. for space reasons, ejection of the mandrels to the rear can be undesirable and even impossible.
  • the blind riveting device can then be quickly and easily into a device with ejection of the mandrels forward, i. H. through the mouthpiece 2.
  • the steel sleeve 3 with the pressure bush 23 and the chuck mechanism 5 is unscrewed from the device head A and the nozzle tube 24 is removed to the front by the pulling element 4.
  • an automatic suction or ejection device for the mandrel torn off during the riveting process into the actual blind riveting device in a space-saving manner.
  • the compressed air is used twice in an energy-saving manner, namely for the actual riveting process and for the suction or ejection of the mandrel.
  • the riveting process and the suction or ejection process can take place in succession in a closed work cycle, and the blind riveting device is then immediately ready for use again.
  • the blind riveting device according to the invention can be converted in a simple and quick manner, depending on the need, from the preferred suctioning off of the torn mandrels backwards to their forward ejection. Both systems are therefore combined in one and the same blind riveting tool.
  • the only intermittent supply of compressed air saves energy and costs.
