Description

RIVETABLE ATFACHMENT
Field of the invention
The present invention relates to a rivetable attachment and particularly, but not exclusively, to a rivetable attachment for fastening to sheet material.
Background to the invention
Riveting is an operation whereby two plates are joined using a rivet with sufficient mechanical force being applied to form the joint. Smooth holes are drilled (or punched and reamed) in two plates to be joined and the rivet is inserted into the hole. Holding the rivet by its head using a backing bar, necessary force is applied at the tail end of the rivet with a die until the tail deforms plastically to the required shape.
Depending upon whether the rivet is initially heated or not, the riveting operation can performed cold' or hot'. Cold riveting is performed with the rivets at ambient temperature whereas in the hot riveting process the rivets are initially heated before applying force. Afterthe riveting is completed, the joint is generally heat-treated by quenching and tempering.
The friction between the flat steel surfaces thus clamped together adds substantially to the resistance of the joint to moving.
The conventional hot riveting process while joining two or more sheets of metal does not help with the attachment of studs or bosses to the metal sheets.
Statements of invention
According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a rivetable attachment comprising: a first end; and an opposite second end, wherein the first end comprises a deformable portion, the second end comprises a fastener portion, with a flanged portion being disposed between the first and second ends.
S
An advantage of the present invention is that it enables the hanging or attaching of, for example, exhaust duct liners and other structures to sheet metal fabrications in a quick and cost effective way.
Optionally, the deformable portion is cylindrical in cross-section.
This makes the rivetable attachment simple and cost effective to manufacture.
Optionally, the deformable portion has a polygonal cross-sectional profile.
This ensures that after the rivetable attachment is inserted into and riveted onto a sheet metal substrate, the rivetable attachment is positively located and prevented from rotating about an axis along the length of the attachment.
Optionally, the deformable portion, flanged portion and fastener portion are arranged in sequence along an axis of the attachment, the deformable portion having a maximum first lateral dimension, and the flanged portion having a maximum second lateral dimension, and wherein the second lateral dimension is at least twice the first lateral dimension.
During the hot riveting process, the heat input to the rivetable attachment causes the deformable portion to expand. After the riveting process has been completed, as the deformable portion cools down, it will contract thereby tightening the joint between the attachment and the metal sheet.
By providing the flanged portion with a larger lateral dimension than the deformable portion, it is possible for the contraction resulting from the cooling the rivetable attachment to further deform the metal sheet. This may advantageously locally flatten the surface profile of the metal sheet so further enhancing the strength of the joint s between the rivetable attachment and the metal sheet.
Optionally, the fastener portion comprises a threaded stud.
Optionally, the fastener portion comprises an internally threaded boss.
Optionally, the fastener portion comprises a bracket.
Optionally, the fastener portion comprises a bobbin.
According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a rivetable attachment system comprising: a rivetable attachment as claimed in any one of Claims ito 10; and at least one sheet material having a first face and an opposing second face, the sheet material having a hole therethrough, the hole being sized to accommodate the deformable portion, the rivetable attachment being positioned such that the deformable portion extends through the sheet material from the first face towards the second face and partially projects from the second face, a distal end of the deformable portion being adapted to be hot riveted to the sheet material.
An advantage of the invention is that it can be used to mount bosses, bobbin and studs to circular or curved sheet metal shapes. The heat generated in the hot riveting process allows the local deformation of the sheet metal that the hot rivet is in contact with. This means that the process can be used in holes drilled perpendicular to curved surfaces and the hot rivet will create its own flat.
The fact that the riveting process has been done hot also means that the rivet is in tension when in a cooled state. This pre tensioning means that the rivet is less likely to become loose when there is a change in temperature, and allows the assembly to be heat treated
S
Optionally, the hole is countersunk at the second surface.
This enables flat sheet metal to be assembled onto more rigid structures in a simple cost effective manner. The deformed side of the hot rivet may then be dressed back so that it is flush with a surface of the metal substrate. This means that a smooth surface can be obtained on one side, making this process ideal for use in jet pipe liners. Furthermore the smooth surface allows the part to be more easily and successfully painted or coated.
By heating and then deforming the head to fill the countersink, the rivet is in tension is when cooled and the stud is fastened securely to the sheet.
Other aspects of the invention provide devices, methods and systems which include and/or implement some or all of the actions described herein. The illustrative aspects of the invention are designed to solve one or more of the problems herein described and/or one or more other problems not discussed.

It is noted that the drawings may not be to scale. The drawings are intended to depict only typical aspects of the invention, and therefore should not be considered as limiting the scope of the invention.
Detailed Description
Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a rivetable attachment according to a first embodiment of the invention is designated generally by the reference numeral 10.
The rivetable attachment 10 comprises a first end 20 and an opposite second end 30.
The first end 20 is formed as a deformable portion 20 and the second end 30 is formed as a fastener portion 30. A flanged portion 40 is defined part way along an axis of the rivetable attachment 10 between the deformable portion 20 and the fastener portion 30.
In this embodiment the fastener portion 30 is formed as a threaded stud 32 (shown in Figure 1).
Referring to Figure 3, a rivetable attachment according to a second embodiment of the invention is designated generally by the reference numeral 100.
The rivetable attachment 100 comprises a first end 120 in the form of a deformable portion 120, and an opposite second end 130 in the form of a fastener portion 130, with a flanged portion 140 disposed therebetween.
s In this embodiment, the fastener portion 130 is formed as a threaded boss 130 with the hot riveted end closed to secure it into sheet metal.
Similarly, Figure 4 shows a rivetable attachment according to a third embodiment of the invention is designated generally by the reference numeral 200.
The rivetable attachment 200 comprises a first end 220 in the form of a deformable portion 220, and an opposite second end 230 in the form of a fastener portion 230, with a flanged portion 240 disposed therebetween.
is The fastener portion 130 of this embodiment takes the form of a threaded boss 130.
Again, as is shown in Figure 3, the deformable portion 220 is shown as being hot riveted to a metal sheet.
In use, the rivetable attachment 10,100,200 is positioned in alignment with a hole in a metal sheet 50, as shown in Figures 1 and 2. The deformable portion 20,120,220 is then hot riveted to secure the rivetable attachment to the metal sheet SO.
Whilst Figures land 2 illustrate the application of the rivetable attachment 10,100,200 to a flat metal sheet 50, the invention may equally be used in conjunction with a curved metal sheet 60, as illustrated in Figure 5 and 6.
In the arrangement shown in Figures 5 and 6, as the deformable portion 20,120,220 cools following the hot riveting process, the deformable portion 20,120,220 contracts pulling the flanged portion 40,140,240 into intimate contact with a surface of the curved metal sheet 60 thereby creating a localised flat portion 65. This in turn improves the joint strength of the rivetable attachment 10,100,200.
The shrinkage that occurs after the hot riveting process will place the deformable portion 20,120,220 into tension. It is assumed that this tension would provide adequate resistance to turning. Where a greater torque resistance is required the cross-sectional s profile of the deformable portion 20,120,220 may be altered.
Figure 7 shows a fourth embodiment of the invention designated generally by the reference numeral 300. The rivetable attachment 300 comprises a first end 320 in the form of a deformable portion 320, and an opposite second end 330 in the form of a fastener portion 330, with a flanged portion 340 disposed therebetween.
In this embodiment, the deformable portion 320 is formed with a square cross-sectional profile. This deformable portion 320 would be put through a square hole that has been punched or laser cut into the sheet metal 50,60. When the square head had been closed/formed the square cross section would act as an anti-rotation feature.
A further alternative anti-rotation feature is shown in Figure 8 which shows a fifth embodiment of the invention designated generally by the reference numeral 400. In this embodiment an anti-rotation peg 444 projects from a surface of the flanged portion 440 in a direction towards the surface of the sheet metal 50,60.
A resistance welder could then be used across the anti-rotation peg 444 to secure and orientate the hot riveted body. The hot riveting process can then be carried out as before to complete the join. In this instance the projection weld combined with the material shrinkage would both act together as the anti rotation feature.
The foregoing description of various aspects of the invention has been presented for purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed, and obviously, many modifications and variations are possible. Such modifications and variations that may be apparent to a person of skill in the art are included within the scope of the invention as defined by the accompanying claims.
