Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pressing device for relative axial displacement of two coaxial with each other and only by means of high compression pressure against each other displaceable parts with the parts to be pressed coaxially comprehensive housing which in the closed state at least one coaxial annular engagement edge for engagement on one of the parts to be pressed , an axially displaceable inside the housing pressing plate having a coaxial annular engagement edge for engagement with the second part to be pressed and a number of annularly arranged pressure cylinders according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Pressing operations of this kind are used, for example, in the pressing of pipe ends or shaft connections.
  • High compression pressures are required because the friction must be overcome by a tight fit and in many cases additional material deformation must be effected.
  • a typical example is the pressing and squeezing of collets or sleeves in corresponding tool or collet holder in machine tools.
  • the collets or sleeves with the tool shank used can not readily in the recording of the collet holder introduced and fixed with a clamping nut or vice versa removed after loosening the clamping nut, but must be pressed in with high pressure and again squeezed out.
  • This pressing in and out have disadvantages.
  • a pressing device that fulfills these tasks is in the CH-A-0862/03 described.
  • this known device is only suitable for one tool size, ie, different devices are required for different tool sizes.
  • Another problem with the known device is that the required pressing pressure is not readily adjustable.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a pressing device that can accommodate different tool or workpiece sizes and with each adjusted pressures or can press out.
  • a pressing device with the features of claim 1, which is characterized by an outer housing and insertable therein insert from at least partially separable shells, each having two fixed plates with engagement edges for engagement on one of the parts to be pressed and an axially movable pressure plate having an engagement edge for engagement with the second part to be pressed.
  • Fig. 1 shows the essential parts of a pressing device according to the invention, wherein details such as hinge, closure, hydraulic lines, etc. are omitted in this illustration for the sake of clarity.
  • An outer housing 1 consists of two mutually rotatable about a connecting axis shells 2, each consisting of an upper part 3 and a rigidly connected to this bottom part 4.
  • Each half-shell has a recess 5 in which a slot of a lower fixed plate 6, an upper fixed plate 7 and a displaceable between the two fixed plates pressing plate 8 is inserted.
  • the two slots in the half-shells together form a removable jaw assembly, which fully includes inserted tool or workpiece parts when the two half-shells of the housing are closed.
  • the inserts in the half-shells are therefore referred to as slide-in halves.
  • FIG. 2 shown representation of a half-shell 2 of the outer housing without insert it can be seen that the recess 5 has a semi-cylindrical shape.
  • Fig. 3 is an illustration of a half-shell 2 of the outer housing, in addition four print cylinders 9 are visible, which are arranged in the body of the half-shell above the recess.
  • each insert half consists, as mentioned, of two fixed plates 6, 7 and a pressing plate 8 displaceable therebetween by the pressure pistons 10.
  • the pressing plate 8 is pressed against the upper fixed plate 7, when the impression cylinders are not pressurized by the hydraulics.
  • the pressure pistons are in this initial or resting state in their uppermost position in which they flush with the top of the upper fixed plate 7, and with the upper wall of the recess 5 are. In this state, the insertion half can be removed from the recess.
  • the two fixed plates are interconnected by means of guide pins 20 through which the movable pressure plate is guided.
  • the insertion halves thus form a unit which can be inserted as a whole into the housing recess and can be removed from it.
  • the upper fixed plate 7 has an engaging edge 12 which engages for the expression of a collet from a holder in a corresponding groove or a shoulder of the collet holder.
  • the lower fixed plate 6 has a corresponding engaging edge 13 for engagement in the collet holder for the press-fitting operation.
  • the two engagement edges of the fixed plates are approximately rectangular in cross section, ie their flanks lie in planes perpendicular to the device axis.
  • the slidable press plate 8 has an engaging edge 14 for engaging a corresponding groove of a collet. This engaging edge 14 has conical flanks, in contrast to those of the fixed plates, because of the corresponding engagement surfaces of the collets.
  • Fig. 5 shown has the pressure plate 8 integrally formed bolts 15 which extend through corresponding holes 16 of the upper fixed plate 7 to the pressure piston.
  • the pressure plate 8 integrally formed bolts 15 which extend through corresponding holes 16 of the upper fixed plate 7 to the pressure piston.
  • the pressure plate 8 can also be missing at individual holes in the upper fixed plate 7 bolts, as in the case of the hole shown to the right.
  • Fig. 6 and 8th show used bolts in each case two holes visible in section and thus the arrangement for a higher pressure transmission to the press plate.
  • the Fig. 7 and 9 show a bolt only in each one of two holes and thus an arrangement for the transmission of lower pressure on the press plate.
  • Fig. 10 shows a further variant, as may be done differently depending on the pressure transfer.
  • the pressure pistons consist of an inner piston 18 and an outer piston 19 enclosing this coaxially, in the manner of a telescopic arrangement.
  • the piston can also be divided into several coaxial pistons to further subdivide the pressure transmission.
  • Fig. 11 With the above described and in Fig. 10 shown coaxial piston is possible to arrange per half shell only two impression cylinder, as shown in the plan view of Fig. 11 is shown.
  • the two impression cylinders are how Fig. 11 also shows, not uniformly distributed over the semicircle, that is arranged at an angle of 60 °, but moved closer to the parting plane between the two device halves. This ensures that the tilting effect is reduced during pressing.
  • FIGS. 12 and 13 also show the arrangement of the printing cylinder in uneven distribution.
  • the four stepped bolts of in Fig. 8 illustrated embodiment of a drawer half, as in Fig. 12 shown, moved to the dividing plane.
  • Fig. 13 shows an embodiment with six bolts 16 per drawer half, which are also shifted to the parting plane to reduce the tilting effect.
  • FIG. 17 various possibilities of controlling the printing cylinder are shown schematically.
  • the hydraulic pressure is generated by a hand pump 26 and directed to the two half-shells 2 of the device.
  • valves 27 are provided, which are opened when inserting a slot by the actuating pins 21 and getting closed. If both valves are closed, only the two middle pressure cylinders are pressurized and the lowest pressure level is generated on the pressure plate 8. If the left valve is open and the right closed, then in addition the upper pressure cylinder is pressurized and thus causes an increased pressure on the pressure plate 8. Finally, when both valves are open, all five pressure cylinders are active.
  • valve 27 In the lower half shell, a variant is shown in which only one valve 27 is provided. If this valve is closed, only the two middle pressure cylinder are pressurized and causes a lower pressure on the pressure plate. When the valve is opened by inserting a drawer, all pressure cylinders become active and the pressure plate is pressurized.
  • the hydraulic supply lines between the two half-shells of the device are integrated into the hinge 23 connecting them.
  • the hydraulic connection is shown on one of the two half-shells.
  • This hydraulic connection also serves as a hinge for the rotation of the device by 180 ° for the change between pressing and pressing.
  • a bearing 28 is provided in the hydraulic connection.
  • Fig. 15 shows two interlocking and connected by a bolt 24 blocks 25.
  • Fig. 16 Parts of the blocks are shown cut.
  • outwardly leading holes 28 are provided, which are closed at its outer end by a screw. They stand with the hydraulic supply lines to the pressure cylinders inside the housing halves in conjunction.
