Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rodless cylinder according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Rod-free band and slot working cylinders are known (EP-A 29188), which have force transducers guided on the outside of the cylinder body which they grip, which are mechanically connected to the piston.
  • the mechanical connection takes place via a circumferential band, which runs over rollers arranged on the end faces of the band cylinder and connects the piston to the power take-off, or, in the case of the slit cylinder, via a rigid holder which projects through a sealable slot in the cylinder body.
  • a brake device is integrated in the power take-off, which concentrically surrounds the cylinder body with at least one brake pad.
  • the known braking device can be designed as a bellows, which is fastened to the cylindrical inner wall of the power take-off comprising the cylinder body with play and which concentrically surrounds the cylinder tube.
  • the bellows is expanded by supplying a fluid, the brake linings coming to bear against the cylindrical outer circumference of the cylinder tube for braking or stopping the force transducer moved by the piston.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved rodless cylinder of the type mentioned, which takes up only a small space and has a relatively small diameter with simple manufacture and assembly, and whose easily movable power take-off can be easily braked and positioned by the braking device.
  • the exemplary embodiments show working cylinders according to the invention in cross section through the power consumer.
  • the same reference symbols in the figures denote the same or corresponding parts.
  • the exemplary embodiments are band or rope cylinders.
  • so-called slot cylinders can also be provided, the working cylinder of which is provided with a slot-shaped cylinder wall opening, through which a part connecting the power consumer to the piston engages and which can be sealed by a cover strip.
  • the cylinder body 1 of a band cylinder forming a cylinder tube is designed, for example, as an octagonal tube with flat surfaces.
  • a sled-like power take-off 8 encompassing it is slidably arranged on the octagonal cylinder body 1.
  • the power take-off 8 is connected in a manner known per se via a circulating belt to a piston arranged in the cylinder body 1. Neither the band nor the piston are shown in Fig. 1.
  • the band can be divided in a known manner into two sections, one section of which engages with its one end on the front end face of the power take-off 8 and is pressure-tightly guided via a first roller at the front end of the cylinder body through a sealed slot in the front cylinder head in order to to attack its other end on one side of the piston. Accordingly, the other section of the band engages with its one end on the opposite end face of the power take-off 8 and is pressure-tightly guided via a second roller at the rear end of the cylinder body through a further sealed slot in the rear cylinder head in order to have its other end on the opposite other side of the Attack piston.
  • the axial length, not shown in FIG. 1, of the force transducer 8 can be selected in accordance with the axial length of the force transducer of known band cylinders.
  • the cylinder body does not have to have the profile shape shown in Fig. 1, it can rather be profiled in different ways, the profile surfaces which form friction surfaces for the installation of a braking device, which can be integral with the cylinder body or can belong to separate housing or profile parts that are held on the cylinder body.
  • the power take-off 8 contains the braking device, which does not include the cylinder body 1.
  • a wedge-shaped shape of the friction or braking surfaces of the braking device can be advantageous, since this increases the available braking surface and the Wedge effect depending on the selected wedge angle can be used for brake reinforcement. It is then expedient to have springs which move the brake bodies back into their release position after braking.
  • the forces acting on the force collector 8 can essentially be absorbed by a profile part on the cylinder body 1, the surface dimensions of which are independent of the diameter of the cylinder body 1.
  • the profile surfaces are independent of the diameter of the cylinder body 1 can be selected in terms of its area size and area shape in such a way that an optimal braking and positioning of the force transducer 8 is possible, the friction influences of the braking device in the released state also exerting a largely minor influence on the easy displaceability of the force transducer 8.
  • the power take-off 8 is supported with four wheels or rollers 31 to 34 on diametrically opposite surfaces of the octagonal cylinder body 1 forming runways.
  • a pressure body 36 is displaceable radially to the piston body 1.
  • the pressure body 36 has wedge surfaces drawn inwards on the piston body side for carrying a wedge-shaped brake lining 37.
  • the pressure body 36 carries a pressure pad-like sealing element 38, the outer edge of which is supported lip-like on the inner wall of the recess 35.
  • the profile surface 28 of the cylinder body 1 between two adjacent profile surfaces serving as rolling surfaces for the force transducer 8 carries an angled profile plate 39 which forms wedge-shaped contact surfaces for the wedge-shaped brake pads 37.
  • the flat profile surface 28 itself can also serve as a contact surface for the braking device if a wedge-shaped braking device is dispensed with.
  • the profiled sheet 39 can be an integral part of the profile body 1, it can then have two profile surfaces, which serve on the one hand for the rotationally secure guidance of the power take-off 8, and on the other hand serve as a system for the braking device 36 to 38 integrated in the power take-off 8.
  • the power take-off 8 comprises the cylinder body 1 in the example, the special shape of the profile means that the power take-off 8 is secured against rotation, so that special devices for securing the power take-off against rotation are no longer required.
  • a pressure medium source is connected to actuate the braking devices via at least one flexible hose, not shown, and a connection bore 27 to the pressure-tight space 35.
  • the part of the power take-off with the braking device 35 to 38 diametrically opposite the part of the power take-off has a similar braking device, the two braking devices acting spatially against each other during braking.
  • rollers or wheels 31 to 34 can be replaced by slideways or sliding linings, which are to be attached to the profile surfaces of the cylinder body or, accordingly, to the power consumer.
  • the power take-off 8 does not necessarily have to be guided by means of four wheels or rollers or along four slideways.
  • three rollers or slideways, which are offset by 120 ° to each other, can be sufficient.
  • the cylinder body 1 has a wedge-shaped profile part 40 which is placed on the cylinder body 1 or forms a unit with it.
  • the wedge-shaped profile part 40 has such a shape that the wedge-shaped opposite inner surfaces of the profile part 40 serve as contact surfaces of a wedge-shaped braking device 35 to 38, the brake pads 37 of which, in contrast to the embodiment according to FIG are arranged approximately correspondingly wedge-shaped outward.
  • the outer counter surfaces 41 and 42 on the profile part 40 serve as anti-rotation roller or slideways for the power take-off 8, which is displaceably guided thereon with rollers or lubricants.
  • Two corresponding rollers or wheels 43 and 44 are shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2.
  • the force collector 8 according to FIG. 2 is therefore guided by means of two rollers or wheels or by means of two slideways.
  • the invention is suitable for band or rope cylinders as well as for so-called slotted rodless working cylinders.
  • the tubular profiles of the cylinder bodies can be produced from aluminum using the extrusion process; the exemplary embodiments show basic profile examples, the working cylinders made from these, without piston rods, requiring only a small overall height.
