Abstract: The invention relates to a rivet (2) for connecting workpieces (11, 12), in particular a blind rivet, having a sleeve (1) with a shank (5) and a widened preformed head (13) adjoining thereto, and optionally a rivet mandrel (8) with a head (9), wherein an end of the shank (5) lying opposite the preformed head (13) if necessary can be deformed to form a driven head by drawing the rivet mandrel (8) into the sleeve (1). In order that during the placement of a rivet (2) a gap (10) between the rivet (2) and workpieces (11, 12) to be connected can be closed and a highly loadable connection can be achieved, at least one indentation (3) running axially and/or at least one slot running axially are provided in the shank (5), which indentation (3) or which slot (4) during the placement of the rivet (2) causes a radial expansion of the shank (5) of the sleeve (1) towards the workpieces (11, 12).

Abstract: The invention relates to a rivet for connecting parts, in particular aircraft components, through which holes are formed, the rivet including a sleeve part, which has a rivet head with an axially extending cavity and an adjoining or is composed of such rivet head and a rivet mandrel having an essentially cylindrical base body and a widened rivet mandrel head in relation to the diameter thereof and which passes through the sleeve part and along the cavity with its base body. So that a cost-effective connection with improved loadability can be produced between workpieces, even when they have holes of different sizes for the rivet, the rivet mandrel according to the invention has ribs running axially on the cylindrical base body.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rivet for connecting parts, in particular aircraft components, penetrated by bores, comprising a sleeve part (1), which has a rivet head (11) with a cavity running axially and a shank adjoining the rivet head (11) or is composed of this rivet head (11), and a rivet mandrel (2), which has an essentially cylindrical base body (26) and a widened rivet mandrel head (21) with respect to the diameter (D) thereof and which penetrates the sleeve part (1) with its base body (26) along the cavity. So that a cost-effective connection with improved loadability can be produced between workpieces, even when they have bores of different sizes for the rivet, it is proposed according to the invention that the rivet mandrel (2) has ribs (22) running axially on the cylindrical base body (26).
