This invention relates to a removable strip per appliance for die presses.

hole of the stripper plate, makin it ncessary when cutting edges become ull to re move the die out of the press for grinding, and to overcome "the die removal it is one of the objects of this invention and to this 1 end the invention'resides, in providing in a manner as. hereinafter set forth, means whereby it ispossible to remove the stripper plates from the die when the upper part of the die is held in an elevated position by the ram of the press, and after the removal of the stripper the d1e can be ground easily. v

A further object of the invention is to provide, in amanner ashe'reinafterset'forth, means to eliminate the employment of a gauge for holding the sheet metalin position for cutting and with' -said means forming a part of the removable stripper appliance.

'Further objects of the invention are to pro-- vide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, I a removable stripper appliance for the purpose referred to which is simple in its construction andarrangement, strong, durable, compact, readily installed, thoroughly efiicient in its use, permitting of the convenient removal of the stripper plates when desired to grind the dies, and comparatively inexpensive to set up.

With th foregoing and other objects in view the invention consists of the novel con-,

struction, combination and arrangement of .parts as hereinafter more specifically described, and illustrated in the. accompanying drawings, wherein is shown an embodiment .of the inventionyhut itisjo be understood that changes, variations and modifications can be resorted to which fall within the scope of the claims hereunto appended. v

4 male and female dies t ereo Figure 2 is a perspective Viewof the coupling memberof a stripper plate of the male die. 1 1

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the coua fragmentary view in section pling member for the stripper plate of the female die. thefpractice to se- ,Figure 4 is a section on line Figure 1.-

Referring to the drawings in detail 'l de notes the stationary element and 2 the shiftable element of a die press and the former has 'coupledtherewith a guide pin- 3 for the 'shiftable elemem 2 and said guide pin 3 travels in a guide opening 4: formed in the shiftable element 2. -A coupling means for the gulde' pm 3 is indicated at 5 and which is carried by the stationary element 1.' The male die of' the press is indicated at 6 and is connected tol the shiftable element 2. Thefemale die of the press is indicated at. 7 and which is carried by the stationary element 2; vI-loldfast devices 8 are employed forfixedly securing the dies 6 and 7 in position.

The die 6 includes a reduced portion 9 whereby a part of the ,lower face thereof will be positioned in a plane above the remaining portion of said lower face and that part of the lower face of the die 6 hich' is positioned above the remaining part of said lower face i is indicated at 16 and provides an abutment.

The stripper plate for the die 6 is indicated at 11 and it is formed" with an inverted conical shaped opening 12. The stripper plate for the die 7 is indicated at 13' and is formed with a conoidal shaped opening 14.

.The stripper plate 11 is connected to the stationary element 1 by a coupling'member, referred to generally at 15, in connection with a retaining nut 16 of the non-rotative type. Thecoupling member 15 includes a cylindrical shank 17 provided at its lower end with peripheral threads 18 and formed at its upper end with an inverted conical shaped head 19 terminating'in a 'cyhndrical extension 20 formed with a polygonal shaped socket 21. The'he'ad 19 seats in the opening 12 of the plate 11 and the extension 20 is positioned above the plate 11 and is of a diamv eter corresponding to the greatest diameter of the head 19. The extension 20 coactswith the raised portion 10 of the lower face of the die 6 for the purpose of lowering the plate 11. The element 1 is formed with a 'socket' 22 which opens at the upper face of said element 1, and arranged below and spaced-from the socket 22 is a' socket. 23 which is also formed in the element 1 and opens at the lower face thereof. The socket 23 is closed by a counter-sunkplate 24 secured in the lower face of the element 1. Communication is-established betweenthe

sockets

22 and 23 bit a cylindrical opening provided:in-the -e ement 1.; The non-rotative nut 16'is arranged in socket 23. The shank or stem 17 extends through socket 22 and into socket 23; as well 'as' plassing' through opening 25; ranged wit in socket 22 and interposed be,-

'Theinon-rotative y'nut 16 is mounted on the threaded lower ter Ininal portion of the shank or stem 17, and the latter projectsrbelow said nut 16' when the coupling member is employed to connect the plate 11 with the stationary element '1.- An
