Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand-held pressing device with a drive unit and an attached pressing tool, wherein the pressing device has at least two device parts which are movable relative to each other between a starting position and a final pressing position and overlap such that their degree of overlap in the movement between the starting position and End position changes, wherein a display device is provided, via which the achievement or failure of the final press position is visually determined.
  • the US Pat. No. 5,490,406 11 shows a hand-operated pressing device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the pressing is done by means of pressing devices, which consists of a drive unit and a coupled thereto
  • Press tool consist. Examples are the DE 10 2006 003 044 A1 . EP 0 627 273 B1 . DE 196 31 019 A1 refer to.
  • the pressing devices have a drive unit, at the end of a pressing tool is interchangeably coupled, which is formed in many cases in the manner of a pressing tongs.
  • the pressing tool has two mirror-image running and arranged pressing lever, which are mounted on a holder about two parallel pivot axes so pivotally that the pressing lever from a starting position in a final press position and vice versa are pivotable.
  • the ⁇ Presshebel protrude into the range of movement of a Betuschistsstkovs, which is part of the drive unit and which is linearly movable by means of a drive between the two press levers so that it spreads apart the press lever in this area, with the result that they approach each other at the free ends.
  • semicircular pressing jaws are formed, which are intended for direct contact with the workpiece to be pressed and come into mutual contact in the final pressing position and thereby form a substantially closed pressing space.
  • the free ends of the pressing lever can also be connected to other pressing elements, such as a pressing jaws provided with press loop, as in the EP 0 627 273 B1 and the FIG. 1 from DE 10 2006 003 044 A1 is disclosed, or for Axialverpressen pipe ends (see. DE 203 04 017 U1 ).
  • the pressing devices are usually delivered with a set of several pressing tools adapted to the respective nominal diameter of the tube ends or pressfittings.
  • the appropriate pressing tool is coupled to the drive device.
  • electromechanical drive the rotational movement of an electric motor is converted via a spindle gear in a linear movement of the actuating punch.
  • electrohydraulic drive the electric motor drives a hydraulic pump, the hydraulic oil conveyed thereby being supplied to a cylinder-piston unit whose piston rod forms the actuating punch.
  • the drive in the drive unit is moved into its end position.
  • this does not necessarily achieve the desired and predetermined final press position of the press jaws.
  • the occurring forces lead to elastic deformations on the pressing levers on which the pressing jaws sit.
  • the press jaws, press fittings and pipes are subject to tolerances that lead to unfavorable summation that when reaching the end position of the drive is not given sufficient compression.
  • the pressing jaws are subjected to a pressing force which is designed with the addition of a sufficiently large safety factor so that in the normal case sufficient compression and thus tight connection is achieved.
  • a trigger member is responsible as a switching element, for example, in rotating drives, a torque clutch in an electro-hydraulic drive, a pressure relief valve and electrically operated pressing devices, an overcurrent release. Because the driving force is not measured directly, but a converted quantity (torque, pressure or current), which represents only a fraction of the size of the end force, any inaccuracy in the production of the trigger and any wear has a major impact on the final power of the drive and thus ultimately on the press quality. In addition, the ambient and operating temperature has an influence on the pressing behavior. It is particularly treacherous that the change in the end force, especially due to wear and tear occurs cautiously and is therefore usually not noticed.
  • the invention has the object of providing a pressing device of the type mentioned in such a way that the display device is as simple, inexpensive and damage-resistant.
  • the basic idea of the invention is therefore to attach a marking to one of the parts of the device moving relative to one another during the pressing process - several such markings can also be provided and they can also be arranged on different parts of the device - in such an arrangement and areal extent that is visually determined by the position and / or the degree of coverage of the mark, whether the final pressing position is reached or not.
  • a marking can be attached to the device part in a simple manner, for example in the form of a color layer, a glued or riveted plate, a foil, an impression, a milled or drilled hole, and has no moving parts.
  • the marking is therefore inexpensive to produce and relatively damage-resistant, especially if it is arranged sunk. If several markings are provided, it is not mandatory that they all belong only to one of the alternatives specified in claim 1. Rather, they may also belong to different alternatives, so that in the final press position, for example, one marking is completely outside and another completely within the overlap.
  • the mark in the final press position is only partially covered by the overlap, it should be in be completely outside the overlap or completely covered by the overlap. If the marking or one of the markings is completely outside the overlap when the final press position is reached, the end press position can be recognized even if the mark is spaced from the overlap, in particular if the distance is equal to the extent of the mark in the spacing direction. A better recognizability is given, however, if the mark is in the final pressing position adjacent to the overlap. In this case, even in the starting position, the marking can lie completely outside the overlap, which is favorable for the recognizability of the final pressing position, or be completely covered by the overlap. If the marking is completely covered by the overlap only in the final press position, it should be completely outside the overlap in the starting position. However, this is not mandatory.
  • the marking changes its extension transversely to the direction of movement in the relative movement of the device parts at the border to the overlap, so that the progress of the compression is recognizable by the change in the extent of the marking transversely to the direction of movement.
  • the mark may be formed as a triangle, circle or trapezoid. If the mark is formed as a triangle, should be a corner in the final press position adjacent to the overlap. The corner should include an acute angle.
  • the marking is preferably attached to the pressing tool itself, so that the indication by the marking as close as possible to the pressing jaws and thus intermediate influences are minimized.
  • one of the overlapping device parts may be part of the tool and the other device part part of the drive unit.
  • the pressing tool in a conventional manner has two mirror-image formed and arranged drive lever, which are pivotally mounted on a holder about two parallel axes, wherein the holder is connected to the drive unit via a coupling unit which partially overlaps the drive lever, should at least one of Press lever have the mark in the coupling unit.
  • the press apparatus shown is typically used for the compression of press fittings with pipe ends to connect two pipe ends. It has a drive housing 2, in which a drive device is encapsulated and installed.
  • the drive housing 2 runs right into a coupling fork 3, which has two spaced, in cross-section semicircular fork arms 4, 5.
  • the fork arms 4, 5 comprise on both sides a pressing tool 6. It has a holder with two T-shaped holding plates 7, 8, which - in the front view according to FIG. 2 seen - are arranged exactly behind each other and congruent.
  • the holding plates 7, 8 protrude partially into the space between the two fork arms 4, 5 and are held there by means of a connecting pin 9 on the fork arms 4, 5.
  • the connecting pin 9 passes through both fork arms 4, 5 and the holding plates 7, 8 and connects in this way the pressing tool 6 with the drive housing 2.
  • the connecting pin 9 can be removed by hand, so that the pressing tool 6 shown removed from the drive housing 2 and through another pressing tool can be replaced.
  • pressing jaw levers 10, 11 are provided between the holding plates 7, 8, two mirror-image formed and arranged pressing jaw levers 10, 11 are provided. They are pivotally mounted on mutually parallel bearing pins 12, 13, which pass through the two holding plates 7, 8.
  • the press jaw levers 10, 11 have drive housing side drive arms 14, 15, which partially extend into the space between the fork arms 4, 5, so overlap with these.
  • the drive arms 14, 15 have - as in particular from the FIGS. 2 and 3 can be seen - mutually facing drive surfaces 16, 17, which initially include only a very obtuse angle, but which shrinks in the direction of the holding plates 7, 8 to an acute angle.
  • the pressing jaw levers 10, 11 continue in the form of pressing jaw arms 18, 19, which form semicircular recesses on the mutually facing end faces, which form the contour of pressing jaws 20, 21.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 are two actuating rollers 22, 23 can be seen, which are freely rotatable about mutually parallel axes and abut each other.
  • the actuating rollers 22, 23 are mounted at the upper end of an actuating plunger, not shown here, which is part of a housed in the drive housing 2 spindle gear, which is connected on the input side to an electric motor.
  • the electric motor is be supplied with electrical energy by a battery pack or by connection to the mains.
  • FIG. 2 the pressing tool 6 is shown in its open starting position, in which the actuating rollers 22, 23 occupy their retracted position below the lower ends of the drive arms 14, 15. In this position, the actuating rollers 22, 23 are not on the drive arms 14, 15 at.
  • the pressing device 1 is attached to a pipe joint, that it is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the pipe joint between the pressing jaws 20, 21 and the longitudinal axis 24 of the pressing device 1.
  • the pipe connection has a pipe end region 25, over which a conventional press fitting 26 is partially pushed, perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
  • the drive arms 14, 15 of the pressing jaw lever 10, 11 color-contrasting, triangular markings 27, 28 in the form of a color coating, in the starting position according to FIG. 2 are partially covered by the fork arm 4 due to the overlap between this and the drive arms 14, 15. They face each other with their pointed ends.
  • the electric motor is turned on. This has the consequence that the actuating plunger and thus the actuating rollers 22, 23 are moved in the direction of the pressing tool 6.
  • the actuating rollers 22, 23 initially leads against the flat inclined portions of the drive surfaces 16, 17. This leads to the spreading of the drive arms 14, 15, with the result that the Pressbakkenarme 18, 19 approach each other and the pressing jaws 20, 21 come to rest on the press fitting 26.
  • With the further translational movement of the actuating stamp then begins the actual pressing process in which the press fitting 26 is plastically deformed radially inwardly, in the last stage of compression and the Rohrend Scheme 25 - also plastically - is compressed radially inward.
  • the actuating rollers 22, 23 enter the area between the drive arms 14, 15 and thereby cause a further spreading of the drive arms 14, 15th
  • FIG. 3 how out FIG. 3 can also be seen, are the marks 27, 28 when reaching the final press position completely outside the overlap between fork arm 4 and drive arms 14, 15, in such a way that their mutual aligned peaks at the overlap. For the operator, it is thus easy to determine that the final press position has been reached. If the tips of the markings 27, 28 are only slightly covered, this is clearly visible and signals the operator that the Pressbakkenarme 18, 19 have not reached their final pressing position, so there is Fehlverpessung.
