Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a chuck (2) for retaining fixing elements (1) that are provided with a respective radial contact surface and a follower profile (17) for a friction welded connection on a component and for transmitting the rotational and contact forces that act on a fixing element. An annular receiving element (9) is provided in the chuck (2) for transmitting the rotational force, said receiving element tightly surrounding the fixing element comprising an axial polygonal profile that has been introduced. The chuck comprises a retractable contact part (18, 27) in the annular receiving element (9), which is guided in said element and which can be retracted in said element to permit the entry of a fixing element through a lateral opening (12) in the receiving element, the part being retracted behind said opening. After the introduction of a fixing element, the contact part can be displaced into a holding position against the contact surface (19) of the fixing element, in such a way that the fixing element presses against the component in the friction welding position during its rotation. In the holding position, the fixing element that has been introduced into the annular receiving element is held axially by retractable stop parts (10, 11) that project radially inwards.
