Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a screwing tool for threaded bolts and / or nuts with an inner opening which has a polygonal profile with twelve points.
  • the invention also relates to a screwing tool for threaded bolts and / or nuts with an inner opening which has a polygonal profile with twelve points, the opening being arranged in a block material.
  • a screwing tool for tightening a hexagonal fastening means such as in particular a screw nut or a bolt head is known.
  • the screwing tool is either designed in the "6-point” or the "12-point” form. In the latter form, the screwing tool provides a screw opening which has twelve pairs of angled flat surfaces which are connected to one another by means of curved engagement surfaces.
  • Another such tool is from the U.S. 3,125,910 known.
  • the object of the invention is to offer a method for the production of such screwing tools or a screwing tool which can be carried out or produced in a simple manner, the screwing tools produced being designed with a high degree of accuracy, so that with such a screwing tool for threaded bolts and / or Screwing work that is gentle on nuts is possible without excessively stressing threaded bolts and / or nuts in the area of the contact lines of two adjacent surfaces.
  • a screwing tool for threaded bolts and / or nuts which has an inner opening with a polygonal profile, is thus produced from a solid material.
  • a machining tool is used in such a way that a first recess with six points and a central focus is formed in the starting material.
  • This first recess essentially corresponds to the shape of the outer circumferential surface of a nut or a head of a threaded bolt.
  • the first recess thus has six surfaces that form a total of a hexagon, adjacent surfaces having common areas, which are referred to as peaks, these peaks being designed in the shape of a segment of a circular arc relative to the central focus of the first recess and extending overall convex.
  • the surfaces themselves are also designed in the shape of a segment of a circular arc and are slightly concave to the central focus aligned with the first recess.
  • the machining tool is set in such a way that this machining tool forms a second recess in the starting material, which second recess is formed with an identical shape and center of gravity to the first recess.
  • the processing tool is set rotated by 30 degrees relative to the first recess, so that six tips are also formed when the second recess is formed.
  • the inner opening is thus given a polygonal profile with twelve points, the two recesses being of identical design, so that the second recess also has convex and concave areas.
  • the sections running between the tips are rounded. This results in a uniform design in the inner region of the opening that is gentle on the material for the threaded bolts and nuts.
  • the first and the second recess are formed with a section S1 between oppositely arranged areas between two adjacent tips and a second distance S2 between oppositely arranged transition areas, the distance S1 as half the sum of a minimum and is designed according to a maximum width across flats according to ISO 691 tolerance class 1. This ensures that the finally produced opening with the polygonal profile lies between the minimum required and the maximum permitted width across flats.
  • the distance S2 is designed with the maximum width across flats according to ISO 691 tolerance class 1.
  • the areas between the six tips of the first recess and the six tips of the second recess are designed to be concave towards the inner opening. This ensures that the contact surfaces of the inner opening do not rest in the immediate vicinity of the edge areas of the threaded bolt or the nuts. A high load on these areas would lead to a rounding of the threaded bolt or the nut, which should be prevented with such tools, especially if such tools as Power screwdriver bits are used.
  • the rounding of the transition areas between each tip and the areas adjoining the tips concavely to the inner opening takes place with a radius which essentially coincides with the radius of the transition areas between the tips and the adjoining areas of each recess is formed. This results in a uniform wave profile in the entire inner surface area of the inner opening, so that pointed or sharp edges, which can lead to an increased pressure load on the nuts or screw bolts, are avoided.
  • the radius of the rounded areas is different, in particular smaller than the radius of the areas between two tips of the first and the second recess. Furthermore, it is finally provided that the inner opening is finally scaled to the required width across flats.
  • screwing tools can be produced which allow the tool surfaces to conform better to the outer surfaces of a nut or a bolt, since the minimum width across flats is taken into account for the design and formation of the tool surfaces.
  • the construction dimension that is to say accordingly the “nominal dimension” of an interior of the tool having the tool surfaces, is formed by the mean value of the minimum and maximum width across flats according to ISO 691. This results in a smaller angle of rotation of the tool relative to the bolt or the nut up to the point of contact between the tool surfaces and the outer surfaces of the nut or the bolt.
  • the better fit is also a result of the lower twist angle in Combination with a larger radius of the convex inner surface of the tool. This results in a lower load, in particular edge load on the tool and the nut or the screw head of a bolt.
  • Figure 1 shows a first recess 1, which is formed in a block material not shown in detail with six tips 2 and is part of a polygonal profile 3, as shown in FIG Figures 3 and 4 is shown.
  • the first recess has a central center of gravity 4 and, in addition to the tips 2, consists of areas 5, so that the first recess 1 forms a hexagon.
  • the tips 2 are convex relative to the center of gravity 4 and have a radius R1.
  • the areas 5 are concave to the center of gravity, the areas 5 having a radius R3.
  • the six tips 2 of the first recess 1 are arranged at regular intervals from one another.
  • a transition area 6 between the tips 2 and the areas 5 is also concave towards the center of gravity 4, each transition area 6 having a radius R2.
  • Figure 1 a length S1, which represents the distance between oppositely arranged areas 5 in the area of their mid-perpendicular. This length S1 corresponds to half the sum of the minimum width across flats to be finally set and the maximum width across flats according to ISO 691 tolerance class 1.
  • Another length S2 between opposite transition regions 6 is also in the Figure 1 shown. This length S2 corresponds to the maximum width across flats according to ISO 691 tolerance class 1.
  • FIG. 1 a length E, which extends between oppositely arranged tips 2 and corresponds to the product of the length S1 and 1.1577.
  • the radius R1 corresponds to the length S1 multiplied by 0.07
  • the radius R2 corresponds to the length S1 multiplied by 0.049, so that R3 results from S1, S2 and R1 before rounding with R2.
  • Figure 2 is the first recess 1 according to Figure 1 and superimposed with a second recess 7, in which the second recess 7 is arranged at 30 degrees to the first recess 1 and the second recess 7 exactly matches the shape of the first recess 1 and has the same center of gravity 4.
