  • Patent number: 11441591
    Abstract: This invention relates to a pin comprising a head (22) and a threaded portion, an end of the head forming an end surface (32) on a first plane perpendicular to the main axis. The pin further comprises a handling component (30) which is an integral part of the head, a junction (50) between that head and the handling component comprising a breakneck groove (52) with a rotational shape. A section of the breakneck groove has an arc of circle portion (60), a center (68) of that circle primarily in the first plane, so that a plane containing the breakneck groove (52) surface clearly coincides with the first plane.

  • Patent number: 9669457
    Abstract: A rivet for blind fastening may include a screw with a handling element, a break groove, a head separated from the handling element by the break groove, and a threaded part. The rivet may also include a sleeve with a collar and a tubular shank having an internal thread intended to come into engagement with the threaded part of the screw. The handling element includes a first handling portion able to guide introduction of the rivet in a setting tool, and a second handling portion able to transmit a torque, the two handling portions being separated by a blocking portion able to limit an axial movement of the rivet in a setting tool. A setting nose may be used for installing such a rivet, and the rivet, setting nose and a setting method can be used in the assembly of aircraft structures.
