Abstract

The invention relates to a semi-tubular self-piercing rivet (1) having a rivet head (10) and a rivet shaft (30), the shaft bore (32) of which satisfies the following relationship in relation to the length of the semi-tubular self-piercing rivet: (formula I), the total length of the self-piercing rivet LN being <= 4 mm. The invention further relates to a corresponding self-piercing rivet joint, toa method for producing the self-piercing rivet, and a method for producing the self-piercing rivet joint.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semi-hollow self-piercing rivet, in particular for the production of sheet metal connections. The invention also relates to a connection of thin components with said semi-hollow self-piercing rivet, a method for said connection and the manufacture of said semi-hollow self-piercing rivet. Background technique [0002] Semi-hollow self-piercing rivets known in the prior art, such as described in DE102006028537B3 and DE102005052360A1, known semi-hollow self-piercing rivets include a rivet shaft with a central shaft hole, which extends in the direction of the rivet head. Most of the punch rivet (more than 80% of the total length of the semi-hollow self-piercing rivet). The geometry of this self-piercing rivet is not suitable for making thin metal sheet connections due to its length and the expansion characteristics of typical semi-hollow self-piercing rivets. [0003] DE19648231A1 describes a method for influencing the expansio...
