  • Patent number: 9205520
    Abstract: A two-stage punch accomplishes the two-step process of sheet deformation and nut flaring to attach the nut to the sheet in a single stroke of an assembly press. The punch comprises an outer cylindrical sleeve which captivates a resiliently biased center punch. When the punch is moved downward into contact with the sheet, an embossing ring on the sleeve deforms the sheet material around an aperture in the sheet. When the punch is moved farther downward, a pointed end of the center punch extends beyond the embossing ring and into forcible contact with the nut. The nut is thereby flared capturing the sheet between flared edges of the nut and a nut flange.

  • Patent number: 6905136
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a collapsible support (1) for absorbing energy during an impact, particularly to a support for an automobile knee bolster (50). The collapsible support (1) has the form of a tubular body with closed ends. The body extends along a longitudinal axis (3) along which it will collapse during an impact. The support (1) has two opposing end walls (4,10) substantially perpendicular to the axis (3). The two end walls (4,10) are connected by four similar stepped side walls (8) of rectangular plan form that substantially enclose the longitudinal axis (3) such that the side and end walls (8,4,10) of the collapsible support (1) substantially enclose an internal volume. The tubular body is adapted to deform so that sections (31-35) of side walls 8 collapse with one section moving inside another adjacent section upon the application of a compressive force applied to said body along said axis 3.
