Abstract:
A receiver assembly can be coupled to a spindle to receive self-piercing rivets carried by a tape along a tape path below a punch. A reverse locking pawl can be designed to permit movement of the tape relative to the reverse locking pawl along the tape path in a forward direction and to engage a positioning aperture of the tape to stop movement of the tape in the reverse direction when a lead rivet is aligned with the punch. A method can include moving the tape forward along the tape path until a lead rivet of the tape is at a position along the tape path that is beyond an alignment position with the punch, and moving the tape in reverse to engage the corresponding positioning aperture.

Claim (Index 33):
The tape feed apparatus of  claim 26 , wherein the locking pawl that engages the corresponding rivet positioning aperture is positioned above the tape path to engage the corresponding rivet positioning aperture from an upper surface of the tape.
