Definitions
- the sleeve is designed in part as a worm wheel meshing with a worm which is rotatable, via an articulated telescoping shaft, by a servomotor fixedly mounted on the press frame.
- the pressure block is split to form two bearing halves for the sleeve which are normally held together by elastic tie rods to clamp the sleeve and prevent its rotation.
- a hydraulic cylinder can be operated to separate the bearing halves, thereby allowing adjustment of the working gap between hammer and anvil by actuating the servomotor.
- My present invention relates to a power press, more specifically to a high-speed forging press having a reciprocating hammer driven by an eccentric.
- a more specific object is the installation of such gapadjusting means on the hammer side of the press in a manner insulating the servomotor from the dynamic impacts of the hammer drive.
- a press wherein the two jointly reciprocable members, i.e., the hammer member and the force-transmitting block, are interconnected by an eccentric coupling which includes a transverse element, such as a cam sleeve, rotatably lodged in one of these members, preferably the pressure block.
- This element is operatively joined to an electric or hydraulic servomotor, mounted on the press frame, through a flexible link such as a telescoping and universally jointed shaft.
- I provide selectively operable blocking means to prevent the cam sleeve from rotating except when an adjustment of the working gap is to be carried out.
- the member supporting this sleeve is split into two bearing halves normally held together by one or more elastically extensible tie rods.
- the two bearing halves may be forcibly separated, by a hydraulic or pneumatic jack, to unclamp the sleeve for adjustment purposes.
- the coupling between the two members includes a worm driven by the motor and meshing with a worm wheel on the cam sleeve.
- the sleeve surrounds a pin that spans two arms of the yoke-shaped hammer member bracketing the pressure block.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional elevational view of a press according to my invention
- FIG. 2 is a section taken on the line II II of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion of the press taken in the direction of arrow III of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of the region of FIG. 2 indicated by arrow IV.
- a forging press embodying my invention has a frame 1 in which is journaled a shaft 2 carrying an eccentric disk 3.
- the shaft 2 also mounts a flywheel l8 entrained bymeans of keys 19, a drive motor 20 being couplable to this shaft through a clutch 21.
- the eccentric 3 is moved so that its axis A describes a cylinder of a radius r around the axis A.
- the base of frame 1 forms an anvil 6.
- the working gap G of the device is the distance between the lower face of hammer 5 and the top of the anvil 6; this gap can be adjusted by displacing the hammer 5 relatively to the force-transmitting member 4.
- a cam sleeve 7 surrounds the pin 14 in its central region where this pin pases through the block 4.
- the sleeve 7 has a thickness varying from a maximum T to a minimum t, as seen best in FIG. 4.
- the hammer 5 may be moved with reference to block 4 through a distance 2(Tt) equal to the distance between the axis A" of the pin 14 and the axis A' of the outer peripheral surface of the sleeve 7.
- the hammer also carries a hydraulic jack 33 which may be operated during each upstroke to displace, through a lever 34, a knockout pin 35 for dislodging adhering workpieces.
- the adjustment of the relative positions of the hammer 5 and the pressure block 4 is carried out by rotating the sleeve 7 on the pin 14.
- the sleeve 7 is formed around its center as a worm wheel 8 engaged by a worm 9 which is driven .by an electric servomotor 11 carried on the press frame I.
- the worm 9 has a shaft 23 rotatably journaled in a horizontal bore 24 of block 4 by bearings 25.
- the outer end of the shaft 23 is connected via a ball-type universal joint 12 to a telescoping shaft 10, consisting of two nested, splined and relatively slidable sections, whose other end is linked via another ball-type universal joint 13 to the output shaft 26 of the motor 11 paralleling the worm shaft 23.
- Energization of motor 11 rotates the worm 9 to turn the sleeve 7 on the shaft 14, thereby changing the relative position of the hammer 5 and the forcetransmitting member 4.
- the block 4 is horizontally split at a recess 15 into an upper bearing half 4', rigid with the body of the block, and a complementary lower bearing half 4" integrally but flexibly joined to it in the region diametrically opposite the recess 15 which is spanned by two tie rods 16 clamping the cam sleeve 7, cradled in these bearing halves, tightly in position.
- the tie rods are stretchable, against their inherent elasticity and/or the force of strong loading springs not shown, by a hydraulic jack 17 inserted in the recess 15. As shown in FIG. 2, jack 17 is connected via a conduit 27 to a source 28 of highpressure fluid, the conduit being normally blocked by a manually operable valve 29.
- a manual switch 36 in series with circuit breaker 31 serves to energize the motor but is ineffectual as long as jack 17 is not pressurized to spread the bearing halves 4', 4" apart so as to facilitate rotation of sleeve 7; thus, actuator 30 serves as a lockout means preventing untimely operation of motor 11.
- the lower bearing half 4" could also be completely separated from the block 4, with duplication of the tie rods 16 on opposite sides of sleeve 7.
- a forging press comprising:
- a force-transmitting member mounted on said frame for reciprocation toward and away from said anvil; drive means for reciprocating said force transmitting member;
- transverse element is a cam sleeve
- said coupling further comprising a pin connected to the other of said members and passing eccentrically through said sleeve.
- said blocking means includes a split bearing for said sleeve on said force-transmitting member and clamping means for holding said bearing together.
- split bearing has a first half integral with said force-transmitting member and a separable second half embracing said sleeve, said clamping means including elastically extensible tie means engaging said halves.
- a press as defined in claim9 further comprising lockout means for preventing operation of said motor in an inoperative state of said spreader means.
