- the invention relates to a device for connecting fiber composite components.
- the invention relates to a fiber composite material component assembly.
- WO 2016/071335 Al discloses a method for connecting two objects.
- DE 37 21 717 AI discloses a clamping and clamping element consisting of a mounting bracket and at least one clip, wherein the mounting bracket has a plurality of self-tapping frames, which are connected to the clip by bending.
- DE 10 2009 056 580 A1 discloses a method for joining thermoplastic fiber composite components by means of pin-shaped functional elements.
- DE 10 2010 061 301 AI discloses a connecting element for connecting a fiber composite component to a second component, wherein the connecting element has a base body, arranged on which at least one anchoring element for anchoring the connecting element in the fiber composite component and at least one fastening means for fastening with the second component are.
- GB 2 238 977 A discloses a method for producing a composite material.
- the invention has for its object to provide a connecting element of the type mentioned, with which can be easily connect fiber composite components.
- This object is achieved in the above-mentioned connecting element according to the invention in that a plate is provided, and that a plurality of spaced pins are provided, which sit on the plate, wherein the pins are provided for penetration into a matrix material of the fiber composite material, wherein the pins are plastically deformable, and wherein in a fixing position of the connecting element, a pin is oriented by plastic deformation at least partially transverse to a direction of penetration of the corresponding pin in the matrix material and / or at least partially bent relative to its orientation in a starting position and / or at least partially a Has transverse orientation to its orientation in the starting position.
- the connecting element can be introduced into the fiber composite components via its pins during the production of the connection. Due to the spaced pins, which do not form areas enclosed by semi-hollow punch rivets, there is no local separation of material. In particular, no fibers are severed in the fiber composite, but these are merely displaced; the fibers can dodge and are not damaged.
- fiber composite components By connecting fiber composite components with connecting elements according to the invention, advantageous crack stop properties result. Furthermore, fiber composite components can be combined with greater tolerances, since the corresponding joining partners do not have to have parallel surfaces across large areas.
- a corresponding connecting element can be produced in a simple and cost-effective manner.
- connection can be produced in a simple and cost-effective manner. It is favorable if at least three pins, preferably at least five pins and in particular at least seven pins are provided. This results in a good connectivity. It is particularly advantageous if the pins are spaced apart and in particular evenly spaced on a closed line. For example, they are arranged on a circle. A corresponding connecting element then has the approximate structure of a half-hollow punch rivet, but no area is enclosed. This means that no material has to be separated when penetrating into a joining partner, that is, there is no local separation of material instead. Furthermore, fibers can escape and by this fiber displacement, a separation of fibers can be avoided.
- a pin has a tapering area at one end, which faces away from the plate.
- This tapering region can be produced, for example, by one or more wedge surfaces, by a conical or partially conical surface, etc.
- the tapering area allows easy penetration into matrix material of a fiber composite material (which in particular is heated).
- a pin has a tapering region parallel to the plate with respect to its cross section, in particular a region with a greater width being closer to an edge of the plate than a region having a smaller width.
- the pins are connected to the plate and in particular are integrally connected. This results in a connecting element which can be used and produced in a simple manner.
