Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plate assembly point according to the preamble of claim 1, more particularly thick aluminum sheets by cold flow and a tool for the realization of such an assembly point according to the preamble of claim 3.
  • the invention relates to creep assembly cold which consists of superimposing at least two sheets, keep them applied against each other by a greenhouse, to form a stamping using a punch against a matrix in order to form, in a first sheet, a cavity whose side walls have, in the vicinity from the bottom, an enlargement, and in the second sheet a cavity of corresponding shape matching, by its external surface, the shape of the cavity of the first sheet.
  • GB-A-2 189 175 describes an assembly point and a set to produce such an assembly point according to the preambles of claims 1 and 3.
  • the thickness of the second sheet, to the right of the side wall of the cavity is reduced due to the stretch produced by the depression of the punch, this generates a slight weakness of the especially sensitive assembly point when using relatively thin aluminum sheets.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to remedy this drawback.
  • the assembly point is of the type in which we practice simultaneously in at least two sheets superimposed using a punch and a die two stampings so as to form, in each of the sheets from one side a cavity and on the other side a projection, the projection of the first sheet being inserted into the cavity of the second sheet, said cavity of said second sheet having, in the vicinity of its bottom, an enlargement, while the projection of the first sheet has a flare housed in said enlargement, said point being characterized in that the cavity of the first sheet has a series of beads extending substantially parallel from the bottom of said cavity to the free edge of this one.
  • the beads are one in number of four and evenly spaced.
  • the tool according to the invention for the realization of the assembly point as above defined and of the type comprising a punch with a blank holder, a matrix comprising an anvil against which are elastically applied movable shells on a surface guide and limited in their movement by a stop, said tools being characterized in that the punch has grooves extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of said punch and opening at its free end.
  • this affects a frustoconical shape.
  • the punch can also have at its end free a cylindrical part connected to the small base of a truncated cone.
  • the grooves can be regularly angularly offset.
  • a another feature of the invention is to remedy to this disadvantage.
  • the free ends of the shells can be rounded.
  • the ends free shells are rounded so that the free edge of said shells located on the side thereof cooperating with the anvil either at a distance from the surface guide greater than the distance from the edge free from the shells adjacent to the outer side wall of these.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a set of tools for the realization of an assembly point, according to the invention.
  • These tools include a tool 1 provided with a shank 2 to allow its attachment to a mandrel of a machine.
  • Tool 1 has a shoulder 3 intended to receive a support stop 4 for a blank holder 5.
  • the blank holder 5 is constituted by a block of rubber or plastic material shaped so as to have a circular opening 6 whose edges cooperate, on the one hand, with the bearing stop 4 and, on the other hand, with a shoulder 7 of the tool.
  • the tool 1 is terminated by the active part of the punch 8 which has four grooves 9 which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tool and which are regularly offset by 90 ° between them.
  • the active part of the punch 8 has, on the side of the free end, a cylindrical part 8 a connected to the small base of a truncated cone 8 b , the large base of which is adjacent to the shoulder 7.
  • the bottom of the grooves 9 is rounded and these are open at the free end of the punch 8.
  • the punch 8 is intended to cooperate with a matrix 10 which includes four shells 11 which rest by their underside on a guide surface 12 of the tool 13.
  • the guide surface 12 and the underside shells 10 are perfectly machined so that the shells 10 can slide freely on said surface 12.
  • the tool 13 includes an anvil 14 against the lateral surface of which the shells abut 11.
  • a cage 16 which constitutes a stop limiting the sliding of the shells 11 and which has holes 17 for guiding fingers 18 secured to the shells 11.
  • the shells 11 have a groove 20 in which is housed a tension spring 21 in the form of a ring closed.
  • References 23 and 24 designate two sheets, for example, aluminum sheets.
  • the free end of the shells 11 is rounded which has the advantage, when formation of the assembly point, avoid when the shells move apart that the sheet 24 is marked. Indeed, thanks to the rounded ends, the shells when they deviate only on the sheet 24 on one point and no projecting part is in contact with said sheet.
  • the rounding is carried out so that the free edge shells 11 located on the side of the internal lateral edge cooperating with the lateral surface of the anvil 14 either located at a distance from the upper guide surface 12 to that separating said guide surface from the free edge of each shell 11 located on the side of the lateral surface external of it.
  • Tool 1 is lowered so that the blank holder 5 blocks said sheets, the punch 8 deforming by cold stamping said sheets to form the point assembly.
  • the grooves 9 of the punch 8 forms in the cavity 26 four beads 35 which extend parallel to each other from the bottom from the cavity 26 towards the free edge of the latter.
  • Figure 4 shows a section of an assembly point made with a classic punch and we carried over in this figure the same references as those used to designate different corresponding parts of the point assembly of figure 5, but assigned the letter "at”.
  • the thickness "L" of the sheet 23 a in the part situated above the flaring 32 a and comprised between the projection 33 a and the cavity 26 a is smaller than for the other parts.
  • the formation of the beads 35 allows the right of these beads to increase the thickness "L” and thus strengthen the assembly point.
