Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1078701A2] The rivet joint making process involves forming a die by means of a rivet (4) at a connecting point of the sheets (2,3) within a bulge (6) so that a positive connection is made between the rivet and the sheets. The bulge is basically in the shape of a sector of a sphere. A counter-directed curvature may be formed on the bulge.
