  • Publication number: 20150140351
    Abstract: A method for fixing on a metal workpiece a connecting element permits the friction-increasing, play-free, reversible connection of workpieces to be joined. The connecting element includes a metal foil which bears on its joining surfaces hard material particles, which are fixed on the metal foil by means of a metallic binder phase. The connecting element is fixed on the metal workpiece securely for purposes of assembly and transportation by welding involving the formation of locally confined weld points. Alternatively a component includes a metal workpiece and a connecting element fixed on it securely for purposes of assembly and transportation by locally confined weld points. The connecting element permits the friction-increasing, play-free, reversible connection of workpieces to be joined and includes a metal foil which bears on its joining surfaces hard material particles, which are fixed on the metal foil by means of a metallic binder phase.

  • Patent number: 8981255
    Abstract: Provided herein is a method for securely fixing a connecting element on a metal workpiece by welding involving the formation of locally confined weld points that permits the friction-increasing, play-free, reversible connection of joined workpieces for applications in assembly and transportation. The connecting element includes a metal foil having hard material particles fixed on the joining surfaces by a metallic binding layer. Similarly, a component having a metal workpiece and the connecting element, which is suitable for the connection of workpieces to be joined in machine, plant, and motor vehicle construction, is also provided.

  • Patent number: 8425169
    Abstract: Described is a device and method for a securing element for screw connections as an interlayer, between the screw head and supporting material and/or between the nut and supporting material, the basic body of the element consisting of a metallic material, to the top side and underside of which hard material particles are fixed, wherein the hard material particles are fixed by means of a metallic binding phase, the thickness of the metallic binding phase being lower than the mean diameter of the hard material particles, so that the hard material particles project out of the metallic binding phase.

  • Publication number: 20100119326
    Abstract: The invention relates to a securing element for screw connections as an interlayer between the screw head and supporting material and/or between the nut and supporting material, the basic body of the element consisting of a metallic material, to the top side and underside of which hard material particles are fixed, wherein the hard material particles are fixed by means of a metallic binding phase, the thickness of the metallic binding phase being lower than the mean diameter of the hard material particles, so that the hard material particles project out of the metallic binding phase. The invention also relates to the use of a securing element according to the invention for highly loaded, permanent and rereleasable screw connections, the securing element being used as an interlayer between the screw head and supporting material and/or between the nut and supporting material.
