Definitions

  • This invention relates to a new or improved pressure exerting mechanism for use in presses of that type wherein a ram and a bearer plate movable transversely of the ram are mounted in a frame, and links, struts or edge pressure plates are arranged edgewise between the ram and bearer plate, and, in some instances, also between the bearer plate and a fixed part of the frame, so that, when w the bearer plate'is reciprocated relatively to the ram, movement is imparted to the ram by variation of the angular position of such links, struts or edge pressure plates rela tively to the ram and bearer plate.
  • a pressure exerting mechanism comprises in its construction plates, bars or strips of metal which according to the purpose for which they are employed, are hereinafter referred to as bridgeplates, as ram-plates and as push-or-drawbar plates, each having holes therethrough which serve to accommodate fulcrum-pins or equivalentdevices, on which fulcrum-pins a minimum of two sets of so-called oscillatinglinks, having pivot-holes therethrough near the ends of each link thereof, are pivotallymounted.
  • Each set of oscillating-links consists of a minimum of three of such links, arranged in a side-by-side form of placement and each separated one from the other by a bridgeplate, ram-plate, push-or-draw-bar-plate or by distance-pieces or by any or all of these,
  • this invention consists in providing for use in presses and other machines, a pressure-exerting mechanism having a multiplate bridge-member, a n1ulti-plate.push-ordraw-bar1nember and a multi-plate rammember, or alternatively a slidably-mounted lating-links which are pivotally-connected to the said members through the medium of pins or like equivalents which serve as fulcrums therefor, and these pins or the like are passed through holes in the said members and holes in the said oscillating-links and except where securing means, distance pieces, or oscillating-links occupy a partof any space between the said plates, the said spaces are unobstructed.
  • All or any of the said plates and oscillatinglinks which'alternate one with the other are, at'the parts thereof where they make contiguous junction one with the other, in a laminar form of placement and where they do not make contiguous junction one with the other they are in a spaced form of placement and appear, when viewed edgewise, like spaced parallel bars; this condition is the result of placing a plate between each two oscillatinglinks of a set, or by placing an oscillatinglink between each two of the said plates in each said member.
