Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a riveted part, in particular to a thin plate pressure riveted bushing. Background Art

[0002] The description in this section merely provides background information related to the disclosure of the present utility model and does not constitute prior art.

[0003] The self-riveted bushing is a riveted structure connected to the mounting plate, generally set in a ring shape. After riveting, the hollow bushing structure can be tightly combined with the mounting plate to expand the structural function of the mounting plate.

[0004] During the riveting connection process between the existing self-riveted bushing and the mounting plate, the self-riveted bushing generally adopts the riveting process, that is, the self-riveted bushing needs to provide a partial diagonal force in addition to the radial force to squeeze the mounting plate. The flange structure squeezes part of the metal material of the mounting plate into the preset groove to achieve the connection. The disadvantage is that the mounting plate after installation is subjected to the force of the riveting, or the mounting plate needs to be machined to cut out the melting groove to accommodate the metal material of the mounting plate, which reduces the structural strength of the mounting plate and may have a large dent, affecting the quality of the finished product. For thin plates with lower strength, the above-mentioned dent effect is further amplified.

[0005] It should be noted that the above technical background is merely for the purpose of providing a clear and complete description of the technical solutions of the present invention and to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that the above technical solutions are well known to those skilled in the art simply because they are described in the background technology section of the present invention. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a thin plate pressure riveted bushing, which can be easily processed by arranging a serrated portion for extruding the mounting plate on the periphery of the riveted portion, and can avoid the concavity of the plate after riveting.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention discloses the following thin plate riveted bushing, which is used to connect with a mounting plate, wherein the mounting plate has a mounting hole; the thin plate riveted bushing comprises:

[0008] A body, the body being configured as a ring extending in the axial direction, the body having a first surface and a second surface oppositely disposed in the axial direction;

[0009] a riveted portion connected to the first surface of the main body, wherein the outer diameter of the riveted portion is smaller than the outer diameter of the main body so that the riveted portion and the main body form a stepped structure, and the outer diameter of the riveted portion is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting hole;

[0010] Wherein, the outer ring wall of the riveted portion is provided with a serrated portion, and a gap is formed between the serrated portion and the body, and the gap is used to accommodate at least a portion of the mounting plate after deformation.

[0011] Furthermore, the serration portion includes a plurality of serrations spaced apart around the peripheral ring wall of the riveted portion.

[0012] Furthermore, a side of the end of each saw tooth facing away from the main body has an inclined surface inclined toward the main body.

[0013] Furthermore, a dimension of the riveted portion along the axial direction is the same as a dimension of the mounting plate along the axial direction.

[0014] Furthermore, the main body and the riveted portion are configured as an integrally formed structure, and the inner annular wall of the main body and the inner annular wall of the riveted portion are configured as the same connected annular surface.

[0015] Also disclosed is a connection structure, which includes the above-mentioned mounting plate and thin plate riveted bushing, wherein the mounting plate and the thin plate riveted bushing are riveted together, and the serrated portion is inserted into the inner hole wall of the mounting hole, and at least part of the mounting plate is arranged in the gap between the serrated portion and the main body.

[0016] Also disclosed is a riveting device for riveting the above-mentioned mounting plate and the thin plate riveted bushing, wherein the riveting device includes an upper mold corresponding to one side of the riveted part and a lower mold corresponding to one side of the main body, wherein the side of the upper mold facing the riveted part is set to be a plane, and the radial dimension of the upper mold is not less than the aperture of the mounting hole.

[0017] By means of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0018] The thin plate riveting bushing of the utility model can be provided with a serrated portion for squeezing the mounting plate on the periphery of the riveted portion. During the riveting process, the riveted portion can be pressed down by only using a mold on a plane, so that at least part of the mounting plate is pressed into the serrated portion on the periphery of the riveted portion to achieve the riveting effect. Compared with the existing riveting process, since the riveted portion does not need to be bent, the entire riveting process is smoother and easier, and the mounting plate after riveting does not have the concavity of the mounting plate in the riveting process, and is suitable for processing thinner plates.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this specification, not all of them.

The following implementation methods will further explain the relevant technical contents of the present invention in detail, but the disclosed contents are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] It should be understood that although terms such as "first," "second," and "third" may be used herein to describe various components or signals, these components or signals should not be limited by these terms. These terms are primarily used to distinguish one component from another, or one signal from another.

[0029] See Figure 1-3 , is a thin plate self-riveting bushing of this embodiment, used to connect with the mounting plate 100, wherein the mounting plate 100 has a mounting hole; wherein the thin plate self-riveting bushing includes:

[0030] The body 1 is arranged in a ring shape extending in the axial direction, and has a first surface and a second surface arranged opposite to each other in the axial direction;

[0031] The riveted portion 2 is connected to the first surface of the main body 1. The outer diameter of the riveted portion 2 is smaller than the outer diameter of the main body 1, so that the riveted portion 2 and the main body 1 form a stepped structure, and the outer diameter of the riveted portion 2 is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting hole;

[0032] The outer ring wall of the riveted portion 2 is provided with a serration portion 3 , and a gap 4 is provided between the serration portion 3 and the body 1 . The gap 4 is used to accommodate at least a portion of the mounting plate 100 after deformation.

[0033] With the above structure, see Figure 3 When in use, the operator only needs to install the thin plate riveting bushing to one side of the mounting plate 100. Specifically, the mounting hole of the mounting plate 100 is preliminarily aligned and placed on the top of the riveted part 2. Then, the second surface of the body 1 is placed on the lower mold 6, and the upper mold 5 of the corresponding size is selected, so that the upper mold 5 is pressed downward toward the riveted part 2. The axis of the upper mold 5 coincides with the axis of the riveted part 2. During the pressing process, the top surface of the mounting plate 100 first contacts the pressing upper mold 5, so that the bottom surface of the mounting plate 100 is aligned with the top surface of the riveted part 2. Pressure is generated between them, and the serrated portion 3 on the outer periphery of the riveted portion 2 directly exerts pressure on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 100. With the help of the serrated portion 3 with higher structural strength, and further force is applied, the serrated portion 3 exerts pressure on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 100 and another part of the mounting plate 100 is deformed. The deformed mounting plate 100 is embedded in the gap 4 on one side of the serrated portion 3 until the upper mold 5 is completely pressed down, so that the gap 4 is filled with a preset amount of mounting plate 100, so that the mounting plate 100 and the serrated portion 3 on the outer periphery of the riveted portion 2 are riveted and fixed together.

[0034] During the above-mentioned use, during the riveting process, the riveted part 2 can be pressed down only by a planar upper mold 5, so that at least part of the mounting plate 100 is pressed into the serrated part 3 on the periphery of the riveted part 2 to achieve the riveting effect. Specifically, the riveted part 2 in this embodiment is configured to extend approximately axially and is not deformed during the riveting process. The riveting process is that the outer serrated part 3 of the riveted part 2 is directly pierced and riveted along a circle of the mounting hole of the mounting plate 100. The riveting speed is faster, and the strength of the riveted part 2 itself can be made higher. The force during the riveting process is straight up and down, so that the metal material of the mounting plate 100 is squeezed and flows into the gap 4 at the bottom of the serrated part 3. The stroke of the upper mold 5 is linear and more stable, the riveting efficiency is significantly improved, and the riveting accuracy can be guaranteed.

[0035] It is worth noting that, compared to existing flip riveting methods, this embodiment employs a straight-up and straight-down riveting method that directly pierces the mounting plate 100 via the serrated portion 3, allowing the metal material of the mounting plate 100 to be riveted into the gap 4 for fixation. This simplifies the force distribution and avoids the pitfalls of the mounting plate 100 being recessed due to the need to generate an oblique extrusion force on the mounting plate 100 during flip riveting, or the need to hollow out a portion of the mounting plate 100 to accommodate the metal material of the mounting plate 100. Therefore, with the structure of this embodiment, the thickness and strength requirements for the mounting plate 100 are lower, while still maintaining its inherent recessed shape. This indirectly makes it easier to produce thin plate parts with high specifications and precision.

[0036] Further, please refer to Figure 2 The serrated portion 3 includes a plurality of serrations spaced apart around the outer ring wall of the riveted portion 2. Specifically, the end of each serration, facing away from the main body, has an inclined surface 31 inclined toward the main body. The arrangement of the inclined surface 31 in the above structure allows the metal material of the mounting plate 100 to flow more efficiently into the bottom side of the serrated portion 3 due to the guiding effect of the inclined surface 31 during the riveting process when the serrated portion 3 and the bottom of the mounting plate 100 are directly subjected to force and squeezed. This reduces the resistance encountered during the riveting process, making the riveting smoother and avoiding the situation where the upper mold 5 is skewed or shaken due to excessive resistance during riveting, thereby indirectly improving the processing accuracy and efficiency.

[0037] Furthermore, the axial dimension of the riveted portion 2 is the same as the axial dimension of the mounting plate 100. That is, after the riveting is completed, the top surface of the mounting plate 100 is completely flush with the top surface of the riveted portion 2, and the thickness of the mounting plate 100 is the same as the thickness of the riveted portion 2, so that the connection structure with the mounting plate 100 and the thin plate riveted bushing in this embodiment has a complete top plane. At the same time, the main body 1 and the riveted portion 2 are set as an integrally formed structure, and the inner annular wall of the main body 1 and the inner annular wall of the riveted portion 2 are set as the same annular surface that is connected. The connection structure of this embodiment has a complete annular surface without protrusions and inclinations. With the help of the above structure, after the riveting is completed, since the riveted portion 2 has not been deformed or has only undergone very small deformation, compared with the existing flip riveting structure, a smoother upper surface and the inner wall structure of the middle hole can be obtained in this embodiment, and the quality of the finally formed connection structure is higher.

[0038] In one embodiment in which riveting is performed using a pressure riveting device, the lower die 6 has an inwardly concave groove 61 on the side facing the body 1. The groove 61 is used to retain the body 1, thereby preventing the body 1 from separating from the lower die 6 during the pressure riveting process. Specifically, the axial thickness of the groove 61 is no greater than the thickness of the body 1 to prevent the lower die 6 from lifting the mounting plate 100 to be processed placed above the body 1. Furthermore, the axial thickness of the groove 61 is equal to the thickness of the body 1. In other words, during the riveting process, the top surface of the lower die 6 radially outside the groove 61 can support the mounting plate 100.

[0039] like Figure 4 The figure shows an example of a usage scenario of a thin plate riveted bushing. After riveting is completed, the top of the mounting plate 100 is still a complete plane. Therefore, another connecting plate 200 can be set on the top of the mounting plate 100 and connected to other components at the bottom through the holes of the thin plate riveted bushing.
