Description

MECHANICAL PRESS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Mechanical presses are constructed in a wide variety of styles and sizes so that they can perform a variety of functions, such as stamping, embossing, forming and many others. The harmful effect of the impact load associated with many functions of mechanical presses is well known and recognized. A variety of cushioning arrangements for use in mechanical presses is also well known. Examples of these cushioning arrangements associated with mechanical presses are taught in: U.S. Patent No. 4,732,033, entitled "Pneumatic Die Cushion", published March 22, 1988, by Smedberg et al .; U.S. Patent No. 4,736,615, entitled "Pneumatic Press Counterbalance", published April 12, 1988 by Smedberg et al .; U.S. Patent No. 4,796,460 entitled "Cushion Construction Including Snubber," published January 10, 1989, by Smedberg et al .; U.S. Patent No. 4,825,681, entitled "Pneumatic Press Counterbalance and Cushion Construction", published May 02, 1989 by Smedberg et al .; U.S. Patent No. 4,860,571 entitled "Power Press With Improved Cushioning Construction", published August 29, 1989 by Smedberg et al .; and the REF. 152345 U.S. Patent No. 4, 930,336 entitled "Single Action Cylinder," published June 5, 1990 by Smedberg et al. Although the equalizing arrangement improves the operation of a mechanical press, it is still necessary to provide a means that modulates the force applied by a hydraulic press piston on a work piece and on the fixed portions of the press, so that the additional harmful effect of the unwanted shock load on parts of the press is reduced and a smooth application of the force on a work piece is achieved.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention described herein provides an improved mechanical press. This press construction provides improved fastening of a work piece and generates an improved desirable load in a mechanical press. An improved force modulator is used to hold the work piece and to regulate the internal load in the press with a piston capable of being moved relative to a fixed part of the press. The force modulator includes a container having hydraulic fluid contained therein. A reservoir of hydraulic fluid is mounted inside the container. One end of the force modulator is coupled with the press piston. The opposite end of the force modulator is coupled with the fixed part of the mechanical press. A regulator is connected to the reservoir in order to control the flow of hydraulic fluid in the container, whereby a support force or counterforce is determined in the press piston congruent with a defined curve of force displacement, ie , the force defined for each position of progressive increase of the piston in response to the position of the piston in relation to the fixed part of the press. The counterforce on the press piston substantially eliminates the unwanted impact load on the parts of the press and achieves a smooth application of a work force in a work piece located in the press.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Modality Next, with reference to the drawings and especially to Figure 1, a conventional mechanical press, which is generally indicated by the number 20, is shown therein. The mechanical press 20 is conventional in that it includes a conventional frame 22 with a conventional brace or srt 24 fixed with the frame. The srt is a fixed portion of the press. A conventional piston 26 is mounted movably on the frame and is moved by a conventional motion or drive transmission assembly 28 from a power source that is conventional and well known, although not shown in this figure. A die assembly 30 is placed within the press with four force modulators 32 (any suitable amount could be used) connected to the die assembly and the srt 24 only through two force modulators as shown in Figures 2, 3 y. As can be seen in Figures 2, 3 and 4, the die assembly 30 includes a fixed male portion 34 that is clamped on the work table. A matrix ring capable of being moved 36 is located adjacent to and surrounding the male portion 34. The matrix ring extends above the male portions 34 as can be seen in Figures 2 and 4. A conventional female portion or capable of being moved 38 of the die assembly can be coupled with the male portion 34. The movable portion 38 is fixed on the piston 26 to move it up and down with the piston inside the frame 22. A workpiece 40 is located at the r part of the matrix ring, as can be seen in Figure 2. A plurality of identical force modulators 32 are mounted on the srt 24 and clutch with the work table ring 36. When the female portion 38 moves toward down in clutch with the workpiece 40, the workpiece is immobilized on its outer periphery between the female portion and the matrix ring. In addition to the downward movement of the piston, the central portion of the work piece is caused to be stretched around the fixed male portion. The force modulator is connected to the piston through the ring, the work piece and the portion of the matrix that can be moved. Once the piston has completed its downward stroke, the piston is moved upward, which allows the array ring to move up, and to disengage the workpiece from the male portion of the array, as shown in Figure 4. Then, the work piece is moved in a conventional and well-known manner and a new work piece is placed in the array in the arrangement shown in Figure 2. Each forming operation in the matrix requires that a given force is applied by the piston in the work piece to stretch it a selected amount. The given force varies progressively in relation to the position of the piston, in turn in relation to the work table, as a force defined in a given curve of force displacement. The downward movement of the piston is a simple harmonic movement, where the initial vertical movement is light. Then, the speed of the downward movement increases to a halfway point in the total displacement of the piston. After the midpoint, the speed of the downward movement then decreases until the piston reaches the end of its downward stroke and starts to return to its starting position. Through each of the progressive increase positions, the defined force of the piston on each work piece is observed in relation to the work table that generates the defined force displacement curve for the given work piece. The four force modulators 32 cooperate in order to provide a predetermined clamping force of the part, with the applied force of the piston to soften the force applied to the parts of the mechanical press. The use of the predetermined force against the force of the piston reduces the noxious effect of extraneous forces within the press that are generated by the piston. The hydraulic force modulators create the proper force for clamping the part through the action of a piston assembly 41, which can be seen in Figure 5, which moves inside a reservoir, ie, a regulating cylinder 42, which is an elongated tube, forcing a well-known and conventional hydraulic fluid from the regulating cylinder to pass, to through a plurality of regulating holes 43. The predetermined amount of force is established by the flow velocity of the hydraulic fluid through the regulating orifices. The initial number of holes is large in view of the fact that the piston initially moves only in a small amount. In this example, the number of effective holes is smaller as the piston moves down in the direction of the work table, until the piston reaches the bottom and finds a hole. A specific construction of each force modulator 32 is identical to each other force modulator construction and construction that is shown in detail in Figures 5 and 6. In general, the force modulator 32 includes a hydraulic cylinder 44 and a conventional elastic tire 45 bellows connected to the cylinder. A movable base plate 46 is connected to the die ring 35. A fixed base plate 56 is connected to the support 24. The pneumatic bellows has an end secured in a sealed manner with the fixed base plate 48 and its opposite end is secured with the plate capable of being moved 46. A barrier or stop 50 is welded onto the susceptible base plate, if moved 46. The cylinder 44 includes a plunger head 52, which is mounted in a sealed the fixed plate 48. The cylinder includes a reservoir or cylinder vessel 54, which has one end connected in sealed manner with the head 52. The closed end head 56 is connected in sealed manner to the other end of the vessel 54. regulating cylinder 42 is concentric with vessel 54 and has one end secured in sealed form with plunger head 52 and the other end secured in sealed form with closed end head 56. A plurality of connecting rods The elongate elongated nibs 60 are threadably mounted on the closed end head 56 and extend through the head 52 and the plate 58. A conventional connecting rod nut 59 is threaded at the end of each connecting rod that is extends through plate 58 to secure vessel 54 and regulating cylinder 42 in position. The cylinder 44 includes a plunger rod 62, which is slidably mounted on the head 52 with a bearing 64 located therein for guiding the rod on the head 52. The plunger rod 62 is secured on the stop 50 by a screw 66. The plunger assembly 41 is placed on the free end of the rod 62. The rod 62 includes a plunger bolt 70 which receives the piston assembly 41 .. A conventional nut 72 secures the plunger assembly on the rod of plunger. As best seen in Figs. 1 and 12, the piston assembly 41 includes a plunger 74, which has a plurality of ports 76 extending therethrough. A plunger guide 78 is mounted on the clutch pin 70 with the plunger 74. The outer diameter of the plunger guide is smaller than the inside diameter of the adjusting cylinder allowing the hydraulic fluid to move between the plunger guide and the plunger guide. regulation cylinder. Plunger guide 78 includes a recess 80 adjacent to the plunger. A piston ring 82 is movably mounted in the recess 80. The piston ring 82 engages sealed with the inside of the regulating cylinder. However, the piston ring is capable of being moved from a sealing clutch with the piston guide to a clutch with the piston. When the piston ring is in clutch with the piston, the hydraulic fluid can move through the ports 76, through the piston ring the piston guide during the return of the piston assembly 'from its lower position, shown in Figure 5, to its starting position adjacent to the plunger head 52 shown in Figure 6. The closed end head 56 includes a fluid passage 84 between the regulating cylinder and the container 54 . A. valve; Ball retainer 86 is located in the passage for the purpose of controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid through the fluid passage. The ball check valve 86 includes a ball 88 connected to a spring 90 through the plug or plug 92. The spring pushes the ball 88 in the direction of the passage 84, so that the ball seats in the passage. A port 93 located in the fluid passage 84 provides communication for the hydraulic fluid between the interior of the regulating cylinder and the ball. When the pressure inside the regulating cylinder is increased, this increase in pressure effectively pushes the ball toward a larger contact with the head seat 56 to seal the closed passage 84. However, when the pressure inside the regulating cylinder, so that the pressure inside the vessel 54 is greater than the pressure in the regulating cylinder, the ball is displaced from its seat so as to allow the hydraulic fluid to move in the direction of the cylinder. regulation. The passage 84 is connected through port 94 with a hydraulic fluid supply reservoir, which is not shown in this document. The interior of the container communicates with the interior of the pneumatic bellows through a passage of the overflow or drain 95. The drain passage 95 allows the fluid to move from the container to the pneumatic bellows which acts as a drain reservoir. A tube 96 is mounted on the plate 48 'and connected to a conventional source of compressed air, not shown, through the line 98. The tube 96 extends above the maximum hydraulic fluid height in the pneumatic bellows. . The defined force that is applied to the piston in its positions of progressive increase relative to the fixed part of the press, has a predetermined force that is generated by the force modulators for each position. The predetermined force, which is generated by each of the force modulators, is established by the number of holes in each force modulator, which allow the hydraulic fluid to move out of the respective regulating cylinder. The force defined for each force modulator is determined by the pressure drop through the holes, which is established by the following formula: A p = Q2 p 2362 d04 c2 where : ? p = pressure drop through the holes in pounds per square inch.
Q = flow rate in gallons per minute. ds. = diameter of the hole in inches. c = flow coefficient. p = density in pounds per cubic foot The model or pattern of the placement of the orifice in the force modulators is shown in Figure 13, where the holes 43 are located in axial position along the extension of the cylinder coupled with the piston speed to effect the predetermined force that is desired. At the top of the cylinder, ie, adjacent the head 52, a plurality of holes 102 is formed therein. When the piston starts its initial downward movement, the initial force is small, thus reducing the initial impact. As the piston moves downward and in clutch with the workpiece, the support pressure increases to be congruent with the force applied to the workpiece by the piston. In this way, the force modulators follow the movement of the piston in order to maintain a predetermined force thereon. The movement "^ into the plunger assembly for each force modulator from its starting position shown in Figure 6, causes the hydraulic fluid contained in the regulating cylinder to be pushed out of the cylinder into the container 54. through the holes 43.
The ball check valve prevents any hydraulic fluid flow from leaving the end of the regulating cylinder. The piston rod occupies a volume inside the regulating cylinder larger than the volume that was originally occupied by the piston, so that there is an excess of hydraulic fluid in the regulating cylinder between the piston assembly and the head 52. The Hydraulic fluid passes through the drain passage 95 in the direction of the pneumatic bellows where it is retained. The inward movement of the plunger assembly does not allow any hydraulic fluid to move through the plunger. As can be seen in Figure 11, when the plunger assembly moves towards the head 56, the sealing ring 92 engages with the plunger guide 78, thereby preventing the flow of fluid from passing through the guide . In this way, the hydraulic fluid can not pass through the piston assembly. When the piston reaches the lower part of its stroke, ie the position shown in Figure 3, the stop 50 is located adjacent to the head 52 and thereby preventing further movement of the plunger assembly towards the regulation cylinder. As the piston retracts, the force modulator expands, that is, the pneumatic bellows filled with compressed air acts as a pneumatic operation and lifts the moveable plate 46 to move the plunger assembly to its starting position. The drain ports 102 allow the hydraulic fluid to move out of the regulating cylinder and in the direction of the container. The plunger assembly also allows hydraulic fluid to travel through the assembly. The upward movement of the plunger assembly locates the sealing ring 82 in the position shown in Figure 12 which acts as a return valve. The hydraulic fluid passes through the piston guide because the sealing ring is disengaged from the piston guide and the hydraulic fluid travels through the ports 76 of the piston towards the other side of the piston assembly. The movement of the piston assembly to its starting position also causes a decrease in pressure in the regulating cylinder in the space between the piston assembly and the head 56, so that the hydraulic fluid coming from the container has a free return of flow through the passage 84 and pass through the ball retainer assembly so that it can flow towards the regulating cylinder. In this way, the force modulator moves rapidly towards its starting position. Although a specific embodiment of the invention described in this document has been described in detail previously, it is readily apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes can be made to a specific construction without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It is expressly understood that the present invention is limited only by the appended claims. It is noted that in relation to this date the best method known by the applicant to carry out the aforementioned invention, is that which is clear from the present description of the invention.
