1,068,961. Riveting. TEXTRON INDUSTRIES Inc. Aug. 4, 1964 [July 31. 1963], No. 30987/64. Heading B3U. A pulling head for setting tubular rivets by break-off mandrels comprises a sleeve connected to the body of a power tool and having a nose for bearing on the rivet head, a tubular draw-bolt reciprocable away from the nose for pulling the mandrel and movable toward the nose to a mandrel receiving position, the nose and the adjacent end of the draw-bolt having axially aligned apertures, mandrel gripping jaws in the draw-bolt, means in the draw-bolt to close the jaws when the drawbolt is pulled relatively to the sleeve, means to urge the jaws to the gripping position and means to limit the closing of the jaws in the mandrel receiving position. The sleeve 8 is supported by a liner 13 screwed into a power tool 9 and has a nose 16 which bears on the head 2 of the rivet 1. A spring 18 biases the sleeve to the right as seen in Fig. 5. A pin 21 enters a slot 22 which guides the pin but does not limit its stroke. The draw-bolt comprises a base section 28 which screws into the piston shaft 31 of the power tool and a jaw holder 32 which screws into the base 28 and has a conical surface 41 which coacts with the jaws to close them to the gripping position. The jaws 37 are formed on the limbs of a spring collet 26 which has a conical forward end to coact with the surface 41. The means to urge the jaws to the gripping position comprises a block 44 which extends through elongated slots 46 in the jaw holder and into an enlarged bore 47 of the liner 13. A spring 52 and plunger 51 hold the block 44 against a shoulder 48. An ejector tube 53 which extends through the device and through the piston-rod of the power tool, has a threaded flange 54 which screws into the piston shaft 31. A non-return pin 57 extends across the mandrel receiving aperture in the nose 16 and is resiliently held by a spring ring 59. Operation.-A mandrel 6 is inserted into the jaws 37 and as the draw-bolt 23 moves away from the nose 16 the block 44 holds the jaws stationary so that the surface 41 closes the jaws on to the mandrel. Further movement sets the rivet and the draw-bolt then begins to return to the initial position but the broken-off part of the mandrel 6 abuts the pin 57 and pushes the nose 16 and sleeve 8 away from the liner 13 thus compressing the spring 18. As the draw-bolt moves further to the left in Fig. 5, the block 44 abuts the shoulder 48 and the spring 52 is compressed and thus relieves the pressure on the collet 26. The pressure of the spring 18 acting through the broken mandrel 6 then moves the collet 26 away from the surface so that the jaws release the mandrel which is then propelled along the the ejection tube. |
