Dabei hat es sich bislang als günstig erwiesen, dass ihre Herstellung in zumindest drei Fertigungsstufen erfolgen muss. Dies verbessernd zu ändern, ist Aufgabe der Erfindung.Screw plugs of this type are mainly used in motor vehicles and must therefore be produced in large quantities. It has proven to be favorable so far that their production must be carried out in at least three stages of production. To improve this improvement is the object of the invention.

Bei einer mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren herstellbaren Verschlussschraube ist der Schaft als mit dem Außengewinde versehener Rohrstumpf ausgebildet und von der Stirnfläche des Schaftes der Verschlussschraube geht ein zum üblichen Sackloch der Firstplatte koaxiales Sackloch aus. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist, dass bei einem von der Firstplatte achswärts -- in einem längsschnittlichen Winkel von bevorzugt 30° -- geneigten sowie sich firstwärts erweiternden Phasenabschnitt als Übergang zum Rohrstumpf die rohrwärtige Fußkontur dieses Phasenabschnittes gleichzeitig -- konstruktiv -- innere Ansatzlinie für das über diese Kontur radial hinausragende Außengewinde sein soll. Im übrigen wird ein Durchmesser der Fußkontur des Phasenabschnitts von 19,5 mm bevorzugt.In a screw which can be produced by the method according to the invention, the shaft is designed as a tube stump provided with the external thread, and a blind hole coaxial with the usual blind hole of the ridge plate emerges from the end face of the shaft of the locking screw. Of particular importance is that at one of the ridge plate achswärts - at a longitudinal angle of preferably 30 ° - inclined and widening firstward phase section as a transition to the pipe stump the rohrwärtige foot contour of this phase section at the same time - constructive - inner approach line for over this contour radially protruding external thread should be. Otherwise, a diameter of the foot contour of the phase section of 19.5 mm is preferred.
Als günstig hat es sich erwiesen, das Lochtiefste des Sackloches des Rohrstumpfes einen von dessen Wandfläche zur Schraubenlängsachse geneigten Querschnitt aufweisen zu lassen; vorteilhafterweise soll die Tiefe der Wandfläche etwa 8 mm betragen, insbesondere 7,8 mm.As low it has proven to have the deepest hole of the blind hole of the pipe stump have a inclined from the wall surface to the screw longitudinal axis cross-section; Advantageously, the depth of the wall surface should be about 8 mm, in particular 7.8 mm.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der mit dem erfindungemäßen Verfahren herstellbaren Verschlussschraube misst der Durchmesser des Sackloches etwa 14 mm und der Außendurchmesser des Außengewindes etwa 21 mm; die Maße sollen insbesondere die Werte von 13,8 mm bzw. 20,97 mm erfassen.According to a further feature of the closure screw which can be produced by the method according to the invention, the diameter of the blind hole measures approximately 14 mm and the external diameter of the external thread measures approximately 21 mm; the dimensions should in particular cover the values of 13.8 mm or 20.97 mm.
Die Formgebung der mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren herstellbaren Verschlussschraube umfasst auch, dass dem freien Rohrrand des Rohrstumpfes zumindest ein -- und bevorzugt beidseits jeweils ein -- von diesem Rohrrand weg zur Firstplatte hin geneigter Phasenrand zugeordnet ist, wobei der außen liegende Phasenrand in das Außengewinde übergehen soll.The shaping of the closure screw which can be produced by the method according to the invention also comprises at least one, and preferably one on both sides, a phase edge inclined away from this tube edge toward the ridge plate, the outer phase edge merging into the external thread should.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung liegt ein Verfahren zum Herstellen dieser Verschlussschraube, bei dem ein Rohling mit einem an eine Firstplatte angeformt anschließenden zylindrischen Rohrstumpf erzeugt wird, dessen Innendurchmesser und Außendurchmesser kürzer geformt werden als die vorgesehenen, diesen entsprechenden Durchmesser der Verschlussschraube; der Rohrstumpf des Rohlings wird unter gleichzeitigem Erzeugen von Druck auf die innere Wandfläche von dessen Sackloch aufgeweitet. Nach einem anderen Merkmal der Erfindung wird in das Sackloch des Röhlingrohrstumpfes ein Druckstempel als Dornwerkzeug eingetrieben und durch dieses die Wandung des Rohrstumpfes radial aufgeweitet.In the context of the invention is a method for producing this screw plug, in which a blank is produced with an integrally formed on a ridge plate subsequent cylindrical stump, the inner diameter and outer diameter are formed shorter than the intended, this corresponding diameter of the screw plug; the tube stump of the blank is widened by simultaneously creating pressure on the inner wall surface of its blind hole. According to another feature of the invention, a plunger is driven as a mandrel tool in the blind hole of Röhlingrohrstumpfes and radially widened by this wall of the pipe stump.
Dabei hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, wenn die Außenfläche des Rohrstumpfes über die Fußkontur des an die Firstplatte anschließenden -- querschnittlich achswärts geneigten -- Phasenabschnitts des Rohlings radial hinausgedrückt wird; das Außengewinde soll in die Rohraußenfläche des aufgeweiteten Rohrstumpfes eingeformt werden, vorteilhafterweise in den achswärts von jener Fußkontur des Phasenabschnitts bestimmten Bereich des Rohrstumpfes. Diese Einformung erfolgt vorteilhafterweise nach der Fertigung der oben beschriebenen Gestalt der Verschlussschraube durch einen gesonderten Gewinderollvorgang.It has proved to be beneficial if the outer surface of the pipe stump on the foot contour of the at Ridge plate subsequent - cross-sectionally inclined to the axis - phase portion of the blank pushed out radially becomes; the external thread is to be formed in the tube outer surface of the flared tube stub, advantageously in the achswärts of that foot contour of the phase section specific region of the tube stub. This molding is advantageously carried out after the production of the above-described shape of the screw plug by a separate thread rolling process.
Jedoch liegt im Rahmen der Erfindung auch ein Verfahren, in dessen Verlauf die Außenfläche des Rohrstumpfes bei dessen Aufweitung gegen eine sie umgebende Formfläche mit Gewindenegativ gepresst wird.However, within the scope of the invention is also a method in the course of which the outer surface of the pipe stump is pressed during its expansion against a surrounding mold surface with threaded negative.
Von besonderer Bedeutung ist der für das Verfahren genutzte Rohling zum Herstellen der Verschlussschraube; bei diesem schließt an die Firstplatte ein zylindrischer Rohrstumpf eines Außendurchmessers sowie eines Durchmessers des Sackloches an, deren Maße kürzer sind als die des Außendurchmessers und des Lochdurchmessers der eigentlichen Verschlussschraube; der Durchmesser des Sackloches soll etwa 12 mm sowie der Außendurchmesser des Rohrstumpfes etwa 19 mm messen, bevorzugt 19,2 mm. Die Maßdifferenz zum Endprodukt wird durch den Aufweitungsvorgang kompensiert.Of particular importance is the blank used for the process for producing the closure screw; in this connects to the ridge plate a cylindrical pipe stub of an outer diameter and a diameter of the blind hole, the dimensions of which are shorter than the outer diameter and the hole diameter of the actual screw plug; The diameter of the blind hole should measure about 12 mm and the outer diameter of the pipe stump about 19 mm, preferably 19.2 mm. The dimensional difference to the final product is compensated by the expansion process.
Auch hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, den Außendurchmesser des Rohrstumpfes am Rohling kürzer zu wählen als den Fußdurchmesser des Phasenabschnittes an der Verschlussschraube; letzterer -- sowie der Phasenabschnitt des Rohlings -- soll mit der Rohlingslängsachse einen Winkel einschließen, der bevorzugt etwa 30° misst.Also, it has proved to be favorable to choose the outer diameter of the pipe stub on the blank shorter than the foot diameter of the phase section on the screw plug; the latter - as well as the phase section of the blank - should enclose an angle with the blank longitudinal axis, which preferably measures about 30 °.
Nach einem anderen Merkmal ist auch dem Rohrrand des Rohrstumpfes beidseits jeweils ein vom Rohrrand weg geneigter Phasenrand zugeordnet, wobei der äußere Phasenrand in die zylindrische Rohraußenfläche übergeht.According to another feature, the pipe edge of the pipe stump on both sides is assigned in each case one of the pipe edge inclined away phase edge, wherein the outer phase edge merges into the cylindrical pipe outer surface.
Von Bedeutung ist auch ein Werkzeug, mit dem die Umformung des Rohlings auf einfache Weise erfolgen kann; erfindungsgemäß ist in einem Gehäuse ein Druckstempel als Dornwerkzeug einends festgelegt und dessen freiem Ende ein relativ dazu bewegbar angeordneter Trag- oder Haltekopf mit einer Aufnahme für einen Rohling zugeordnet; dessen Achse verläuft in der Mittelachse des Werkzeugs bzw. des Druckstempels. Günstig ist zudem, dass an dem jenem dem Trag- oder Haltekopf fernen Ende des hülsenartigen Gehäuses eine stationäre Sockelplatte vorgesehen ist, die ein Widerlager für den ihr aufsitzenden Druckstempel bildet. Das freie Ende des teilweise von einem ein Stempelrohr umfangenen Druckstempels soll erfindungsgemäß in eine zentrische Bohrung des Trag- oder Haltekopfes eingreifen, wobei dann ein Druckkopf des Druckstempels den Mündungsrand des Stempelrohres axial überragt. Dazu hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, wenn dieses Stempelrohr andernends -- bevorzugt mit einem Tellerfuß -- einer stationären Standhülse des Werkzeugs aufsitzt, die eine Auflagefläche für den die Standhülse durchsetzenden Druckstempel bildet. Um den Druckvorgang zu verbessern, kann an jene Sockelplatte ein zentrischer Drucksockel angeformt sein, der ein gemeinsames Widerlager für den Druckstempel sowie die Standhülse bildet.Of importance is also a tool with which the deformation of the blank can be done in a simple manner; According to the invention, a plunger is set as a mandrel tool at one end in a housing and the free end of a relatively movably arranged support or holding head associated with a receptacle for a blank; the axis of which runs in the central axis of the tool or the plunger. It is also beneficial that at the that the support or holding head far end of the sleeve-like housing, a stationary base plate is provided which forms an abutment for her seated plunger. According to the invention, the free end of the plunger partially surrounded by a plunger tube is intended to engage in a central bore of the support or holding head, a printhead of the plunger then projecting axially beyond the mouth edge of the plunger tube. For this purpose, it has proven to be advantageous if this stamp tube at the other end - preferably with a disc base - a stationary stationary sleeve of the tool is seated, which forms a support surface for the stationary sleeve passing through plunger. In order to improve the printing process, a central pressure base can be formed on that base plate, which forms a common abutment for the plunger and the stand sleeve.
Bevorzugt ist es, dass der Trag- oder Haltekopf des Werkzeugs einer Gleithülse aufsitzt, die koaxial dem Druckstempel sowie der Standhülse zugeordnet ist. Der Durchmesser des Drucksockels soll dem aufsitzenden Durchmesser der Gleithülse dann etwa entsprechen.It is preferred that the carrying or holding head of the tool is seated on a sliding sleeve, which is associated coaxially with the pressure ram and the stationary sleeve. The diameter of the pressure base should then correspond approximately to the seated diameter of the sliding sleeve.
Letztere weist im übrigen an einem dem Drucksockel zugeordneten Fußabschnitt einen gegenüber diesem radial erweiterten Kopfabschnitt auf und soll mit dem Haltekopf von einem Führungsfutter haltend umfangen sowie mit diesem relativ zu dem Gehäuse axial bewegbar angeordnet werden.The latter has, moreover, on a base portion assigned to the pressure base, a head portion which is radially widened relative to the latter and is intended to be held in a retaining manner by the holding head by a guide chuck and to be arranged so that it can move axially relative to the housing.
Zur Unterstützung der Bewegung von Sockelplatte sowie dem Führungsfutter ist erfindungsgemäß zwischen diesen Werkzeugteilen ein Kraftspeicher angeordnet, insbesondere ein Profilelement aus elastischem Werkstoff. Dieses Profilelement ist bevorzugt ringförmig um den Drucksockel der Sockelplatte gelegt und kann aus Materialsträngen unterschiedlicher Querschnittsform hergestellt werden.To support the movement of the base plate and the guide chuck, a force store is arranged according to the invention between these tool parts, in particular a profile element of elastic material. This profile element is preferably placed annularly around the pressure base of the base plate and can be made of strands of material of different cross-sectional shape.
Schließlich hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, dass der im Trag- oder Haltekopf sitzende Rohling bei dessen axialer Bewegung auf den Druckkopf des Druckstempels aufgepresst zu werden vermag, wobei der Durchmesser des Druckstempels größer ist als der Durchmesser des Sackloches im Rohling, d.h. beim Einschub des Druckstempels weitet sich der Rohling auf.Finally, it has proved to be favorable that the blank sitting in the supporting or holding head blank can be pressed in its axial movement on the print head of the plunger, wherein the diameter of the plunger is greater than the diameter of the blind hole in the blank, i. when inserting the plunger, the blank expands.
Insgesamt ergibt sich ein bestechend einfaches Verfahren zum Herstellen der eingangs erwähnten Verschlussschrauben.Overall, a captivatingly simple method for producing the closure screws mentioned above results.
