METHOD OF RIVETING Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method involves making a stepped hole in a package of parts to be connected, putting a larger-diameter step in the metal part. Then a set head bar is placed into the hole at the side of the part made of fibrous composite material. Then method involves simultaneous fixing of the bar in the metal part and compressing the part made of the fibrous composite material. Said part is compressed by a bushing whose length exceeds the thickness of the metal part. The bushing is installed with an interference with relation to the bar and to the hole in the metal part. The bushing is pushed in until its end comes level with the outer surface of the metal part. Compression can be carried out on the portions of the part which lie in the directions of minimum strength of the part made of fibrous composite material. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 2 cl, 5 dwg
