Description
RIVET 2288648 Rivets, whether blind (i.e. settable by access to one side
only of the workpieces) or non-blind (i.e. settable by access to both sides of the workpieces) are set or installed by being permanently deformed, and are intended to form permanent joints. They are not intended to be removed. In this context, the term "rivet" is used to designate any such fastener which is not intended to be readily removable, and may include types of fastener outside of those which are commonly known as "rivets" in the fastener trade and in engineering practice.
However, it sometimes happens that the workpieces is must be later separated, e.g. for repair, or unforeseen servicing, of the structure of which they form part. Consequently it is then necessary to remove one or more rivets. since in most cases it will be necessary to remake the disassembled joint, it will be necessary on reassembly to install a replacement rivet in the same overlying holes in the workpieces. Accordingly removal of the rivet must not damage or distort the hole or its surrounding workpieces.
It is usually found that it is sufficient to separate the head of the rivet from its shank. Since there is relatively little engagement between the shank of a set rivet and the adjacent wall of the workpiece P.355 hole, the shank and the integral head at its other end are then easily removed.
since rivets are commonly circular in cross-section, comprising a cylindrical shank, one convenient way of detaching the head from the shank is by drilling out.
That is to say, a drill having a diameter the same as, or slightly larger than, the diameter of the rivet shank, is applied to the head co-axially with the rivet shank, so that it drills through the head until it meets the adjacent end of the rivet shank. If the drill is positioned accurately, little or no material remains connecting the head and shank, and the two are easily separated. However, the drill must reach the circle at which they mutually abut the nearer end of the workpiece hole, so that damage to the workpiece around the hole is very likely. Furthermore, the rivet may spin in the hole before separation, due to engagement with the rotating drill.
The present invention is intended to provide a rivet which overcomes this problem.
The invention provides, in one of its aspects, a rivet comprising a shank and a head at at least one end of the shank, the rivet being provided with an annular groove at the junction of the shank and the head, the annular groove extending radially inwardly of the diameter of the shank, thereby to facilitate separation of the head from the shank when a drill of diameter P. 355 substantially equal to that of the shank is applied to the head of an installed rivet co-axially with the shank until it meets the annular groove. Preferably the annular groove lies entirely within the head, thereby to facilitate separation of the head from the shank by the drill as aforesaid without the need for the drill to enter the shank. Preferably the head of the rivet is provided with locating means for cooperating with drilling apparatus thereby to locate the drill co-axially with the annular groove. In a preferred embodiment, the locating means comprises an annular rim or boss. Preferably the head of the rivet is provided with centering means, which centering means is engageable by a drill to assist in centering it co-axially with the rivet shank. In a preferred embodiment, the centering means comprises an annular rim or boss. Preferably the head of the rivet is provided with engaging means for engaging a non-rotating part of drilling apparatus thereby to prevent rotation of the rivet under the influence of the rotating drill. Preferably the initial angular orientation of the non-rotating part of the drilling apparatus with respect to the engaging means is not critical. Preferably the engaging means comprises a plurality of abutments spaced apart angularly around the rivet head. Preferably the radially outer ends of the abutments also provide at least part of the locating means.
P. 355 The invention includes a method of separating the head from the shank of a rivet as aforesaid, which method comprises the steps of drilling through the head of the rivet with a drill which has substantially the same diameter as the rivet shank and substantially co-axially aligned therewith, until the drill breaks into the annular groove.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:- Figure 1 is a longitudinal axial section through a blind rivet assembly before installation; Figure 2 is plan view of the top f ace of the rivet head before assembly on to the stem; Figure 3 is a section through the rivet head on the line III - III of Figure 2; Figures 4, 5 and 6 are sections, similar to Figure 1, through the installed rivet and the f ront end of a removal tool, illustrating successive stages in the use of the tool; and Figure 7 is a side elevation of the removal tool in a position corresponding to Figure 4.
The rivet in this example is a blind rivet 11 comprising a tubular shank 12 with an integral pre-formed head 13. The rivet forms part of an assembly which includes a stem 14 extending through the rivet bore 16 and having a pre-formed head 15, which lies outside and P. 355 adjacent to the tail end of the rivet shank 12. The stem 14 includes a breakneck 17 spaced a short distance f rom the head 15. The rivet and stem are both made of steel.
Blind rivets of this type are well known, and are widely available under the registered trademark STAVEX.
In use, (see lower part of Figure 4), the rivet is set or installed by inserting the shank through a clearance hole 18 in a workpiece 19 which comprises two panels, e.g. of metal, which are to be joined thereby, until the f lat underf ace 24 of the rivet head 13 abuts the near face. Tension is applied to the stem 14 whilst the rivet head 13 is supported against the workpiece, so that the rivet shank buckles and bulges to form a blind head 21 which clamps the panels together. The stem then breaks at the breakneck 17, leaving the head 15 of the stem plugging the rivet bore 16. This f orm of blind riveting is well known.
The rivet of this example is intended to facilitate removal of the installed rivet, if necessary. This removal uses a drill 22 which has substantially the same diameter as the rivet shank 12. The drill is applied to the head of the rivet, co-axially with the rivet shank, by means which will be described below. In order to facilitate separation, by the drill, of the rivet head 13 from the rivet shank 12, whilst minimising the risk of damage by the drill to the workpiece 19, the rivet is provided with an annular groove 23 at the junction of the P.355 6.
head 13 and shank 12. As illustrated in Figures 4, 5 and 6, the annular groove is located within the head 13, i.e. its position axially of the rivet is on the head side of the flat underface 24 of the head. The annular groove 23 opens onto the radially inner part of the underface 24 of the head, and extends radially inwardly of the diameter of the rivet shank 12.
The result is that, when the drill 22 enters the rivet head co-axially with the shank and progressively penetrates the rivet head towards the shank, the radially outer part of the tip of the drill breaks into the radially inner part of the annular groove 23 before the radially outer part of the drill tip reaches the level of the head underface 24 and the abutting face of the is workpiece 19. This is illustrated in Figure 6. Thus the rivet head 13 is detached from the rivet shank 12 and its integral blind head 21, which can be pushed out of the hole 18.
The head 13 of the rivet is provided with locating means for co-operating with drilling apparatus thereby to locate the drill 22 co-axially with the annular groove 23. The locating means comprises an annular rim 25 provided by the peripheral curved edge of a protruding boss 26 in the centre of the head.
Centering means f or the drill 22 is provided by a protruding annular rim 27 in the centre of the boss 26.
P. 355 Engaging means, f or engaging a non-rotating part of drilling apparatus thereby to prevent rotation of the rivet in the workpiece under the influence of the rotating drill, comprises four abutment faces 28 spaced 900 apart around the boss 26, each face being radial or nearly so and being provided as the vertical side wall of a wedge-shaped pit or indentation 29.
The outer ends of the abutment faces 28 provide part of the locating annular rim 25.
The drilling apparatus is illustrated in Figure 7. It comprises an airoperated hand held rotary tool 31 containing an air motor to rotate the drill 22 in a clockwise sense. Secured to the body of the tool is a sleeve 32 which is sprung forwardly from the tool body but is prevented from rotating by a pin 33 running in a slot in the sleeve. The sleeve 32 has a bore in which runs the drill 22 and, concentric with its front end, a recess 35 carrying dogs 34 which engage with the abutment faces 28 on the rivet head. The sleeve 32 has a cut-out 36 in its bottom for the exit of swarf.
Progressive stages in the use of the drill and drilling apparatus are illustrated in Figures 4, 5 and 6. The sleeve is offered to the head of the installed rivet (Figure 4) until the outer edge of the sleeve recess 35 engages around the outer edge of the locating rim 25 on the rivet head. The dogs 34 inside the recess enter into the wedge-shaped pits 29. The air motor is then actuated P.355 to rotate the drill 22, and the tool body pushed towards the rivet. The drill tip contacts the rivet head at the outer end of the rim 27, and cuts into the rivet head, the rim 27 tending to keep the drill centered. If the rivet tends to rotate in the workpiece due to the rotating drill, it can do so only until the four abutment f aces 28 contact the four dogs 34. When the drill tip enters the annular groove 23 (Figure 6), the shank 12 of the rivet is separated from the head 13 and can be pushed out. As explained previously, this occurs before the drill tip has advanced sufficiently far to meet the near face of the workpiece, thus minimising the likelihood of damage to the workpiece.
The invention is not restricted to the details of is the foregoing example. For instance, the invention may be applied to a non-blind rivet.
