Published by National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Metadata Last Checked: September 07, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-06
The process involves performing a beading operation for deforming a sheet metal (30) in order to form a rib and a calibrating operation for flattening the rib to form an over-thickness zone (36) having varying length. The sheet metal undergoes a laminating operation during the beading operation in order to obtain the over-thickness zone with a solid abutment, after the calibrating operation. An independent claim is also included for a joint comprising a sheet metal.
