  • Patent number: 8720876
    Abstract: A clamping device for components to be joined, which clamping device comprises: a first component holder for a first component, a second component holder for a second component, and a clamping structure which secures the component holders relative to one another in a joining position, and when the component holders are in the joining position, the clamping structure extends from an external face of the first component holder to an external face of the second component holder facing away from the external face of the first component holder and extends respectively around a peripheral edge of the component holders.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8408036
    Abstract: A roll-flanging tool, including a bearing structure having a connector, by which the tool can be connected via a connection plane to an actuator which can be moved spatially. A first arm and a second arm are spread apart from each other and connected to each other in a connection portion which includes the connector. A first flanging roller is mounted on an end of the first arm which faces away from the connection plane, such that it can be rotated about a first rotational axis which extends along the first arm and pierces the connection plane. A second flanging roller is mounted on an end of the second arm which faces away from the connection plane, such that it can be rotated about a second rotational axis. The first rotational axis intersects or crosses a perpendicular dropped onto the second rotational axis, in or on the roll-flanging tool.

  • Patent number: 7637134
    Abstract: A flanging device for beading a flanging web of a component part around a flanging edge. The flanging device includes a tool head; a first flanging die and a second flanging die which the tool head simultaneously bears, situated in a processing position, and one of which is arranged following the other in a processing direction.
