<p>The invention relates to a vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) for pressing and fixing rivets (3) in component holes (7) in component (8) of aircraft. The v ibrating rivet tool (1, 15) comprises a rivet receptacle (2, 14) and a drive unit (4, 16) for producing a high static pressing force (5). According to t he invention, the static pressing force (5) is superimposed by a mechanical vibration (11, 19), of which the amplitude acts substantially in the directi on of a longitudinal axis (6) of the rivet. As a result, the force necessary to press and fix the rivet (3) in a component hole (7) is reduced in such a way that the overall size and mass of the vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) acco rding to the invention are smaller/ lower in comparison with conventional ri vet tools. Due to the small overall size and low weight, the vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) can more easily be integrated in automated riveting processes.</p> |
