Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of sheet metal processing, and in particular to a riveting device for bending short edges of sheet metal. Background Art

[0002] At present, the structure with rivet holes on the bending edge of sheet metal parts is generally directly riveted by a riveting machine. Although the minimum allowable distance to the edge is specified in the technical specifications of the riveted parts, it is often slightly less than the minimum allowable distance to the edge due to structural space limitations and other reasons during the design process. If the conventional riveting method is used, the sheet will be squeezed toward the shortest side, that is, the weakest direction, and bulge outward after being pressed, resulting in the material being unable to wrap around the head of the riveted part, and thus the riveting strength cannot be guaranteed. At the same time, it will also cause problems such as local sheet deformation. The edge of the sheet bulges outward, which may cause local interference and affect assembly; the failure to meet the riveting strength will cause the riveted part to loosen, making it unable to meet the use requirements; and the local deformation of the sheet will affect the appearance and assembly effect. Therefore, it is urgent to design a tooling to be applied to the riveted structure in special circumstances. Summary of the invention
