Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9425196A1] Improvements relating to tools for cold flow forming of assembly points in sheet metal. The tools comprise a first tool (1) with a punch (6) and a blank holder (5) and a second tool (10) with a guiding surface (16) from which extends a finger (14) terminated by an anvil (15), a die (20) formed by at least two shells (18), each of said shells (18) having a shoulder (21) slidingly mounted on the guiding surface (16) and in contact with the lateral surface of the finger (14) through resilient means (26), the guiding means of the sections (18) being provided together with a stop restricting the separation of the shells (18) during cold flow. The improvements are characterized in that the stop consists of two half sections (30) elastically secured to the second tool (10).
