Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Befestigen eines stabförmigen Teiles (2), vorzugsweise mit zylindrischem Querschnitt, in einer dieses umfassenden Halterung (1). Sie betrifft ferner einen in einer Halterung (1) befestigten Gewindestab (2) und die Verwendung eines derartigen Gewindestabes (2).The invention relates to a method for fastening a rod-shaped part (2), preferably with a cylindrical cross section, in a holder (1) encompassing this. It also affects a threaded rod (2) fastened in a holder (1) and the use of such Threaded rod (2).

Um eine hochzugfeste Verbindung zwischen einem stabförmigen Teil (2) und seiner Halterung (1) zu schaffen, die kostengünstig herstellbar und auch bei bereits mit einer Beschichtung versehenen Teilen realisierbar ist, wird im Rahmen der Erfindung das folgende Verfahren vorgeschlagen:

  • a.) Herstellen einer flächigen Halterung (1), die an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seitenkanten (3,4) Elemente (5,6) zum formschlüssigen Ineinandergreifen aufweist,
  • b.) Hochbiegen der Seitenkanten (3,4) der Halterung (1),
  • c.) Formen der Halterung (1) zu einer dem stabförmigen Teil (2) entsprechenden Querschnittsform,
  • d.) Einführen des stabförmigen Teiles (2) in die Halterung (1),
  • e.) Verprägen der Halterung (1) um das stabförmige Teil (2).
    • Figure 00000001
    In order to create a high-tensile connection between a rod-shaped part (2) and its holder (1), which can be produced inexpensively and can also be implemented with parts already coated, the following method is proposed within the scope of the invention:
  • a.) Manufacture of a flat holder (1) which has elements (5, 6) on two opposite side edges (3, 4) for interlocking engagement,
  • b.) bending up the side edges (3, 4) of the holder (1),
  • c.) forming the holder (1) into a cross-sectional shape corresponding to the rod-shaped part (2),
  • d.) inserting the rod-shaped part (2) into the holder (1),
  • e.) Stamping the holder (1) around the rod-shaped part (2).
