Method for producing a rotary joint
View Patent ↗A method and an assembly device for producing a rotary joint between a drive element and a flange are defined. The drive element and the flange are screwed together by a nut and a bolt of the drive element. The bolt is drawn axially in to a bore in the flange by the rotation of the nut and until the drive element attains a final position in relation to the flange.
1. A method for producing a rotary joint between a drive element and a flange wherein the drive element and the flange are screwed to one another at least by a nut and by a bolt of the drive element at least until the bolt is by rotation of the nut drawn axially into a hole of the flange as far as an end position of the drive element in relation to the flange, the method comprising the steps of:
introducing the bolt into an axial hole of the flange from one axial side of the flange until a loose screwed joint can be produced between the bolt and the nut, the nut lying opposite the flange axially on a side of the flange facing away axially from the axial side;
mounting the nut onto the bolt; and
screwing the nut together with the bolt and in so doing drawing the bolt axially into the hole by rotating the nut, keeping the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange during drawing of the bolt into the hole with the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange until the drive element is located in the end position in relation to the flange and the nut is then screwed together with the bolt until the nut is prestressed axially against the flange.
2. A method for producing a rotary joint between a drive element and a flange, wherein the drive element and the flange are screwed to one another at least by a nut and by a bolt of the drive element at least until the bolt is by rotation of the nut drawn axially into a hole of the flange as far as an end position of the drive element in relation to the flange, the method comprising the steps of:
introducing the bolt into an axial hole of the flange from one axial side of the flange until a loose screwed joint can be produced between the bolt and the nut, the nut lying opposite the flange axially on a side of the flange facing away axially from the axial side;
mounting the nut onto the bolt; and
screwing the nut together with the bolt and in so doing drawing the bolt axially into the hole by rotating the nut, keeping the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange during drawing of the bolt into the hole with the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange until the drive element is located in the end position in relation to the flange and the nut is then first released in an axial direction and finally the nut is screwed to the bolt until the nut is prestressed axially against the flange.
3. A method for producing a rotary joint between a drive element and a flange, wherein the drive element and the flange are screwed to one another at least by a nut and by a bolt of the drive element at least until the bolt is by rotation of the nut drawn axially into a hole of the flange as far as an end position of the drive element in relation to the flange, the method comprising the steps of:
introducing the bolt into an axial hole of the flange from one axial side of the flange until a loose screwed joint can be produced between the bolt and the nut, the nut lying opposite the flange axially on a side of the flange facing away axially from the axial side;
mounting the nut onto the bolt; and
screwing the nut together with the bolt and in so doing drawing the bolt axially into the hole by rotating the nut, keeping the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange during drawing of the bolt into the hole with the nut is kept spaced axially in relation to the flange until a tightening torque on the nut defined by a first desired value is reached.
4. A method for producing a rotary joint between a drive element and a flange, wherein the drive element and the flange are screwed to one another at least by a nut and by a bolt of the drive element at least until the bolt is by rotation of the nut drawn axially into a hole of the flange as far as an end position of the drive element in relation to the flange, the method comprising the steps of:
introducing the bolt into an axial hole of the flange from one axial side of the flange until a loose screwed joint can be produced between the bolt and the nut, the nut lying opposite the flange axially on a side of the flange facing away axially from the axial side;
mounting the nut onto the bolt; and
screwing the nut together with the bolt and in so doing drawing the bolt axially into the hole by rotating the nut, keeping the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange during drawing of the bolt into the hole the nut spaced axially in relation to the flange by a device, the nut first bearing against the flange when the drive element has occupied the end position in relation to the flange by virtue of rotation of the nut.
5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the nut is rotated by the device at least until the drive element is located in the end position.
6. The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the device is supported at least axially on the flange and is then coupled releasably to the nut, the nut being supported on the device rotatably relative to the flange.
7. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the nut is kept spaced axially in relation to the flange by the device until a tightening torque on the nut, defined by a first desired value, is reached and in that the nut is rotated by the device until the first desired value is reached.
8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the nut is screwed together with the bolt by the device until the nut is prestressed axially against the flange and a second desired value is reached.
