Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for connecting components, in which at least one rivet passes through at least one component and by means of a forming machine, a closing head of the rivet or any shaped part is formed.
- rivets Since riveting in large quantities are increasingly used for connecting components, rivets are often used, which are manufactured in lathes at a fairly high cost.
- rivets can be used, which are manufactured, for example, cold-beaten and therefore are much cheaper to produce, however, have a greater tolerance range by a cheaper manufacturing process.
- the cold-rolled rivets may have a tolerance range of about 1 mm.
- the supernatant tolerance of the rivet supernatant is in the above example in the tolerance range of about 0.3 mm. Therefore, in the riveting or forming process, since a constant forming path or a constant forming time is preselected, they are not usable to obtain a required and specified riveting joint.
- the DE 193 46 463 A1 discloses a method for controlling a device for deforming a workpiece by means of a pressurizable tool, in which a rivet overhang is determined, and the riveting process, in particular whose process parameters are adaptable based on stored comparison curves for producing a batch ,
- the present invention has for its object to improve a method of the type mentioned, in which cost rivets can be used and a riveted joint can be made, which still achieves a permissible rivet connection even when exceeding or falling below a permissible Nietüberstandes.
- a rivet projection of the rivet shank is determined exactly before the forming process or before deformation for each rivet connection or component pairing of rivet and component. If the rivet protrusion is within the tolerance range, the forming path and the forming time of the closing head are deformed to the correct rivet connection with preselected deformation parameters. If, however, the rivet passing through the component exceeds the permissible rivet protrusion, then the riveting or forming process is automatically compensated for the respective rivet connection when determining the actual rivet protrusion in the process according to the invention, in which deformation, forming time and forming force are changed and adjusted so that one more perfect riveting can be guaranteed.
- the forming process is automatically automatically redetermined or its parameters are newly determined and set as a function of the deviation from the required rivet protrusion.
- a percentage of the amount of exceeding or falling below permitted rivet overhang is used as a correction factor for the forming process parameters such as forming path, forming force and forming time.
- rivets with wide manufacturing tolerances can be used in the present invention to obtain a consistently reliable riveting result.
- significant savings in the manufacturing process can be realized through the use of lower cost rivets.
- high accuracy, permanent process and rivet monitoring is ensured during the manufacturing process even with conventional rivets, whereby the error rate is minimized or even eliminated in the forming or riveting process.
- a rivet 1 is pushed through an opening 2 until a shoulder 3 of the rivet 1 rests against a bearing 4 of the component 5.
- a cylinder-like rivet shank 1 or a component 1 to be deformed passes through the opening 2 and protrudes in a rivet protrusion U out of the component 5.
- the rivet shank 1a or the component to be deformed is deformed into a rivet head 6.
- a supernatant of a component which is to be connected by forming with another component to be understood.
- the term rivet is chosen in the present application as the supernatant of a component.
- a minimum rivet protrusion U min or a maximum rivet protrusion U max can be predefined in order to permanently set the forming parameters, the forming force, forming speed, forming path and forming time in a conventional forming or riveting process in order to achieve a constant riveting result at this particular machine setting still within the permissible tolerance range.
- Component pairings or rivets with a rivet projection U, which exceed the rivet protrusion U min or U max up or down, are eliminated as scrap.
- the closing head 6 is formed, so that a closing head height H is formed.
- the closing head 6 is thickened in the region of the bearing hole 4.
- the closing head 6 also forms a sufficient grip on the bed hole 4 or opening 2 or bore, with no significant deformation of the component 5 in the region of Perimeter hole is visible. This closing head 6 is formed correctly.
- the closing head 6 is not deformed correctly, since the bearing 4 is deformed. This may be due to the fact that in a conventional riveting or forming process the rivet protrusion U is too large and an allowable rivet protrusion U max has been exceeded.
- the component 5 or sheet, in particular its bearing 4 is bent or expanded and the shoulder 3 of the rivet 1 is compressed if the rivet projection U is too high. The riveted connection is incorrect.
- a second possibility of error is that when falling below a rivet supernatant U or rivet supernatant U min , as in particular in the embodiment according to FIG. 4 is shown to achieve a correct closing head 6 at a constant closing head height H too little material for the closing head 6 during forming is present, so that no sufficient attack of the closing head 6 on the bed hole 4 or opening 2 is achieved and additionally within the opening 2 no Compressing or pressing the rivet 1 is ensured, so that no sufficient rivet connection.
- the rivet protrusion U is too large by an amount X, as in particular in FIG. 5 is pointed, controls the forming or riveting machine to a new closing head height H, which riveted by a certain percentage of the error X, by which the rivet protrusion U is too large, that is, it riveted by a selectable percentage X less than at a conventional method.
- the rivet supernatant U um an amount X of the rivet 1 is too small in which case after determining the actual rivet protrusion U the forming machine, in particular the riveting machine controls to a new closing head height H, which has been reduced by a certain percentage of the amount or error X, ie, it will riveted deeper by a certain percentage, depending on the amount X of too small or too low rivet supernatant U. Also, the rivet protrusion U or the actual rivet protrusion is determined and then automatically taken to a new, to be traversed or riveting Closing head height with corresponding automatic adaptation of forming time and forming path or riveting time and riveting path.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Verbinden von Bauteilen, bei welchem wenigstens eine Niete zumindest ein Bauteil durchgreift und mittels einer Umformmaschine ein Schliesskopf der Niete oder einem beliebigen Formteil angeformt wird.The invention relates to a method for connecting components, in which at least one rivet passes through at least one component and by means of a forming machine, a closing head of the rivet or any shaped part is formed.
Bei herkömmlichen Verfahren siche z.B.
Dabei werden diese Toleranzbereiche häufig über- oder unterschritten, was zur Folge hat, dass der Nietprozess angehalten werden muss oder eine hohe Anzahl an Ausschuss im Fertigungsprozess entsteht, was unerwünscht ist.These tolerance ranges are often exceeded or fallen below, which has the consequence that the riveting process must be stopped or a high number of rejects in the manufacturing process, which is undesirable.
Da Nietverbindungen in hohen Stückzahlen immer häufiger zum Verbinden von Bauteilen eingesetzt werden, werden häufig Nieten verwendet, die in Drehautomaten zu recht hohen Kosten gefertigt werden.Since riveting in large quantities are increasingly used for connecting components, rivets are often used, which are manufactured in lathes at a fairly high cost.
Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass Nieten verwendet werden können, die beispielsweise kaltgeschlagen hergestellt werden und daher wesentlich kostengünstiger herzustellen sind, die allerdings einen grösseren Toleranzbereich durch einen günstigeren Fertigungsprozess aufweisen. Im bisher herkömmlichen Fertigungsprozess können derartige günstigere Nieten nicht verwendet werden, um im Fertigungsprozess permanent eine exakte Nietverbindung herzustellen bzw. zu gewährleisten. Beispielsweise können die kaltgeschlagenen Nieten einen Toleranzbereich von etwa 1 mm haben. Die Überstandtoleranz des Nietüberstandes liegt jedoch bei diesem o. g. Beispiel im Toleranzbereich von etwa 0,3 mm. Daher sind beim Niet- bzw. Umformprozess, da ein konstanter Umformweg oder eine konstante Umformzeit vorgewählt ist, diese nicht verwendbar, um eine geforderte und spezifizierte Nietverbindung zu erhalten.However, it is also conceivable that rivets can be used, which are manufactured, for example, cold-beaten and therefore are much cheaper to produce, however, have a greater tolerance range by a cheaper manufacturing process. In hitherto conventional manufacturing process such cheaper rivets can not be used to permanently manufacture or ensure an exact rivet connection in the manufacturing process. For example, the cold-rolled rivets may have a tolerance range of about 1 mm. The supernatant tolerance of the rivet supernatant, however, is in the above example in the tolerance range of about 0.3 mm. Therefore, in the riveting or forming process, since a constant forming path or a constant forming time is preselected, they are not usable to obtain a required and specified riveting joint.
Die
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu verbessern, bei welchem kostengünstige Nieten verwendet werden können und eine Nietverbindung hergestellt werden kann, die auch bei Über- oder Unterschreiten eines zulässigen Nietüberstandes noch eine perfekte zulässige Nietverbindung erzielt.The present invention has for its object to improve a method of the type mentioned, in which cost rivets can be used and a riveted joint can be made, which still achieves a permissible rivet connection even when exceeding or falling below a permissible Nietüberstandes.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe führen die Merkmale des Kennzeichens des Patentanspruches 1.To achieve this object, the features of the characterizing part of
Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung hat sich als besonders vorteilhaft erwiesen, dass für jede Nietverbindung bzw. Bauteilpaarung aus Niet- und Bauteil ein Nietüberstand des Nietschaftes vor dem Umformprozess bzw. vor dem Verformen exakt ermittelt wird. Liegt der Nietüberstand im Toleranzbereich, so wird mit vorgewählten Umformparametern der Umformweg und die Umformzeit der Schliesskopf zur korrekten Nietverbindung verformt. Überschreitet jedoch die das Bauteil durchgreifende Niete den zulässigen Nietüberstand, so wird beim erfindungsgemässen Verfahren automatisch für die jeweilige Nietverbindung bei Ermittlung des tatsächlichen Nietüberstandes der Niet- bzw. Umformprozess kompensiert, in dem Umformweg, Umformzeit und Umformkraft verändert und angepasst werden, so dass noch eine perfekte Nietung gewährleistet werden kann. Gleiches gilt im umgekehrten Fall, sollte der tatsächlich gemessene und ermittelte Nietüberstand vor dem Umformprozess die Mindestgrenze bzw. den minimalen Nietüberstand unterschreiten, so dass dann ebenfalls Einfluss genommen wird auf die Niet- bzw. Umformparameter, wie Umformweg und Umformzeit. Bevorzugt wird automatisch nach Ermittlung jedes Nietüberstandes der Umformprozess automatisch neu bestimmt bzw. dessen Parameter werden neu ermittelt und eingestellt in Abhängigkeit der Abweichung vom geforderten Nietüberstand.In the present invention, it has proved to be particularly advantageous that a rivet projection of the rivet shank is determined exactly before the forming process or before deformation for each rivet connection or component pairing of rivet and component. If the rivet protrusion is within the tolerance range, the forming path and the forming time of the closing head are deformed to the correct rivet connection with preselected deformation parameters. If, however, the rivet passing through the component exceeds the permissible rivet protrusion, then the riveting or forming process is automatically compensated for the respective rivet connection when determining the actual rivet protrusion in the process according to the invention, in which deformation, forming time and forming force are changed and adjusted so that one more perfect riveting can be guaranteed. The same applies in the reverse case, if the actually measured and determined rivet protrusion before the forming process Minimum or minimum rivet supernatant below, so that then also influenced the riveting or forming parameters, such as forming and forming time. Preferably, after determination of each rivet protrusion, the forming process is automatically automatically redetermined or its parameters are newly determined and set as a function of the deviation from the required rivet protrusion.
Insbesondere wird als Korrekturfaktor ein Prozentsatz des Betrages des überschreitenden oder unterschreitenden zulässigen Nietüberstandes als Korrekturfaktor für die Umformprozessparameter, wie Umformweg, Umformkraft und Umformzeit verwendet.In particular, as a correction factor, a percentage of the amount of exceeding or falling below permitted rivet overhang is used as a correction factor for the forming process parameters such as forming path, forming force and forming time.
Dabei soll auch im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung liegen, dass zur Ermittlung des tatsächlichen Nietüberstandes Messelemente ggf. auch mechanische Tastorgane verwendet werden, wobei einer davon die Basisfläche des Bauteiles abtastet und der zweite, meist direkt mit dem Nietdöpper verbunden, die Höhe der Niete beim Aufsetzen auf dieser misst, um den Nietüberstand zu ermitteln. Wichtig ist auch bei der vorliegenden Erfindung, dass die beiden Tastorgane in einer gemeinsamen Messachse liegen. Hierdurch kann mit nur einem Messkanal gemessen werden. Zudem können die Messergebnisse in Echtzeit in einer Recheneinheit errechnet werden.It should also be within the scope of the present invention that are used to determine the actual rivet protrusion measuring elements, if necessary, mechanical Tastorgane, one of which scans the base surface of the component and the second, usually directly connected to the Nietdöpper, the height of the rivet when placing Measures on this to determine the rivet projection. It is also important in the present invention that the two Tastorgane lie in a common measuring axis. This makes it possible to measure with only one measuring channel. In addition, the measurement results can be calculated in real time in a processor.
Insgesamt können bei der vorliegenden Erfindung Nieten mit weiten Fertigungstoleranzen verwendet werden, um ein durchgehendes zuverlässiges Nietergebnis zu erhalten. Hierdurch können erhebliche Einsparungen im Fertigungsprozess realisiert werden, durch die Verwendung von kostengünstigeren Nieten. Zudem wird während des Fertigungsprozesses auch bei herkömmlichen Nieten eine hohe Genauigkeit, eine permanente Prozess- und Nietüberwachung gewährleistet, wobei im Umform- bzw. Nietprozess die Fehlerquote minimiert oder sogar ausgeschlossen wird.Overall, rivets with wide manufacturing tolerances can be used in the present invention to obtain a consistently reliable riveting result. As a result, significant savings in the manufacturing process can be realized through the use of lower cost rivets. In addition, high accuracy, permanent process and rivet monitoring is ensured during the manufacturing process even with conventional rivets, whereby the error rate is minimized or even eliminated in the forming or riveting process.

Gemäss
Je nach Fertigungsgenauigkeit und Toleranz des Nietes 1 ist für den Umform-, insbesondere Nietprozess von Bedeutung, dass der Nietüberstand U sich in einem Toleranzbereich des herkömmlichen Fertigungs- oder Nietprozesses bewegt. Dabei kann ein minimaler Nietüberstand Umin oder ein maximaler Nietüberstand Umax vordefiniert werden, um bei einem herkömmlichen Umform- oder Nietprozess die Umformparameter, die Umformkraft, Umformgeschwindigkeit, Umformweg und Umformzeit fest einzustellen, um an dieser bestimmten Maschineneinstellung ein konstantes Nietergebnis zu erzielen, welches noch im zulässigen Toleranzbereich liegt. Bauteilpaarungen bzw. Nieten mit einem Nietüberstand U, die den Nietüberstand Umin oder Umax nach oben oder nach unten überschreiten, werden als Ausschuss ausgeschieden.Depending on the manufacturing accuracy and tolerance of the
Bei einem Umformprozess, insbesondere einem Nietprozess beispielsweise mittels eines hier nicht dargestellten Döppers einer Nietmaschine wird, wie es insbesondere in
In dem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung gemäss
Eine zweite Fehlermöglichkeit besteht darin, dass bei Unterschreiten eines Nietüberstandes U bzw. Nietüberstandes Umin, wie es insbesondere in dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäss
In dem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung gemäss
Dann wird automatisch bei dem vorliegenden erfindungsgemässen Verfahren aufgrund des Nietüberstandes zur Erzielung einer spezifizierten und korrekten Nietverbindung der Umformweg, die Umformzeit, Umformkraft etc. über die jeweilige Nietverbindung bzw. für den tatsächlich bestehenden Nietüberstand in der Umformmaschine bzw. in der Nietmaschine automatisch eingestellt bzw. angepasst.Then automatically in the present inventive method due to the Nietüberstandes to achieve a specified and correct riveting the Umformweg, the forming time, forming force, etc. over the respective rivet or for the actual existing Niet supernatant in the forming machine or in the riveting machine automatically adjusted or customized.
Ist beispielsweise der Nietüberstand U um einen Betrag X zu gross, wie es insbesondere in
Dies setzt allerdings voraus, dass der tatsächlich bestehende, für die jeweilige Nietverbindung gegebene Nietüberstand U exakt ermittelt wird und anhand der Abweichung vom Sollmass des vorgegebenen Nietüberstandes hierdurch der Nietprozess automatisch, was die Umformparameter, wie Umformweg, Umformzeit, Umformkraft etc. betrifft, angepasst werden.However, this presupposes that the actually existing rivet protrusion U given for the respective rivet connection is determined exactly and the riveting process is automatically adjusted on the basis of the deviation from the nominal dimension of the given rivet protrusion, which affects the forming parameters, such as forming path, forming time, forming force, etc. ,
In dem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung gemäss
Hierdurch ergibt sich folgender Vorteil bei der vorliegenden Erfindung, dass auch ausserhalb des Toleranzbereiches liegende Nieten zur Herstellung einer korrekten Nietverbindung verwendet werden können. Hierdurch kann auf wesentlich kostengünstigere Nieten beim Umformen bzw. Nietprozess zurückgegriffen werden. Die Fehlerquote ist verringert, die Nietverbindung optimiert und verbessert. Hierdurch werden Fertigungskosten ebenfalls eingespart.
