12 Claims, 12 Drawing Figures 1 DIE SET ASSEMBLY AND MAGNET MEANS FOR RELEASABLY ATTACIIING DIES THEREIN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to dies and more particularly to an unique and novel means for attaching dies to a die set.
Dies are used in the prior art to cut, shape, form, draw and notch metal or other suitable materials and these prior art dies are generally affixed to a die set which is a two-piece device that is in turn attached to a press.
The purpose of a die set is to contain and properly support tooling and to assure alignment of the tooling at the area of work. The die set typically consists of a steel top plate and a steel bottom plate aligned with one another by means of guide pins and bushings permitting vertical movement of the top plate relative to the bottom plate but preventing relative lateral movement .therebetween. The die set includes a lower die half fastened to the top side of a die shoe, and a top die half fastened to the bottom side of a punch holder or shoe. The punch holder or shoe is affixed to a press ram and the die shoe is affixed to a press bolster for movement of the punch toward the die to thus perform work on a workpiece placed therebetween.
In the prior art, dies are usually screwed, bolted, or clamped to the die set in order to secure them in position. This manner of affixing the dies to the die set in the prior art is both costly and time consuming and because of the time and expense required to build and set up dies utilizing screws, bolts, or other similar fastening methods, the dies are expensive to purchase and are not readily reusable. Moreover, the die plate in conventional die assemblies must be made thick in order to elevate the workpiece to a desired elevation for performing work on a workpiece; and accordingly, the cost of material and of the die is substantially increased.
According to the present invention, a unique and novel means is provided for attaching the dies to the die set. In the present invention, a unique double ended magnet, having different magnetic strengths at the opposite ends thereof, is attached between the dies and die set to secure the dies to the die set. The end of the magnet having the greater magnetic strength is attached to the die, and the end of the magnet having the lesser magnetic strength is attached to the die set so that the dies may be easily positioned and secured relative to the die set and removed therefrom simply by exerting force thereon. Since the end of the magnets having the lesser magnetic power is attached to the die set, the magnets are normally carried by the dies and are attached and removed from the die set along with the dies.
Further, the magnets on the bottom half of the die serve as spacers to elevate the die and workpiece to a desired elevated position for performing work thereon and accordingly the die plate can be made relatively thin and less expensively than prior art dies plates. Additionally, a plurality of magnets are provided on each of the die halves positioned at points to provide support for the tooling of the dies.
The magnetic attaching means of the present invention also renders the dies readily reusable and thus significantly lowers the cost of the dies, and significantly lowers the time and cost required to build and set up die assembly for performing work on a workpiece.
In order to properly and accurately align the dies in the die halves, templates are provided, having interengaging means thereon for aligning the templates relative to the punch holder and die shoe, respectively, and for aligning the dies relative to the templates. Accordingly, quick and easy alignment of the die halves is accomplished.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION It is an object of this invention to provide a die set assembly having means for quickly and easily releasably attaching dies to a die set.
Another object of this invention is to provide a die set assembly wherein magnets are releasably attached to each of the upper and lower die halves and to the punch holder and die shoe, respectively, for magnetically attaching the dies to the die set so that the dies can be quickly and easily attached to and removed from the die set.
An even further object of this invention is to provide a unique and novel double ended magnet for attaching dies to a die set wherein the magnet has a greater magnetic strength at one end than at the other end thereof so that the magnet is normally carried by the dies and attached to the die set and removed from the die set along with the dies.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In the drawings, wherein like reference numerals indicate like parts throughout the several views, a press is indicated generally at P in FIG. 1 and comprises a press ram R and press bolster B held in vertically spaced aligned relationship. A die set indicated generally at S is secured to the press ram R and press bolster B and comprises an upper die half U and a lower die half L.
The upper die half U includes a large substantially flat and rectangularly shaped punch shoe 10, a punch plate 11, punch pad 12 and punch steel 13. The punch plate, punch pad, and punch steel are attached to the punch shoe by means of a plurality of magnets 14, and the punch plate, punch pad and punch steel are held in proper aligned position by means of a template l5 and a plurality of locater posts 16 secured to the punch shoe and positioned around the template 15 adjacent the corners thereof and received in holes therein. A plurality of hollow, vertically downwardly extending guide bushings 17 are secured to the punch shoe adjacent each of the corners thereof spaced outwardly from the template 15.
The lower half L of the die set S includes a die shoe 18 attached to the press bolster B, a die plate 19 and die steel 20. The die plate and die steel are attached to the die shoe 18 by means of a plurality of magnets 14 identical to the magnets used to attach the punch plate to the punch shoe, and the die plate and die steel are held in aligned relationship relative to the punch plate by means of a large flat rectangular template 15' which is aligned to the die shoe 18 by means of a plurality of locater posts 16 adjacent the corners thereof.
A plurality of vertically upwardly extending guide posts 21 are secured to the die shoe 18 through holes 21' bored therethrough in vertical alignment with the guide bushings 17 to assure proper vertical alignment of the upper and lower die halves.
In FIG. 1, the upper and lower die halves are shown in separated relationships and a workpiece W is shown removed from the work area between the upper and lower die halves.
The manner in which the die plate, template and die shoe are assembled together is depicted in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4. First, the magnets 14 are applied to the underside of the die plate 19 with the larger and magnetically stronger ends of the magnets attached to the die plate. Then, the template 15' is assembled to the die plate 19 and is accurately aligned therewith by means of a plurality of pins or posts 22 at the corners of the die plate received through a plurality of aligned openings 23 spaece outwardly from the corners of a large rectangular or other shaped opening 0 in the center of the template. The size of the opening 0 is substantially the same as the size of the die steel so that when the template and die plate are assembled together, the die steel extends through the opening 0. The assembled template and die plate are then attached to the die shoe 18 as seen in FIG. 4. The template 15' is accurately aligned relative to the die shoe 18 by means of the locating pins or posts 16 on the die shoe received through aligned openings 24 adjacent the corners of the template. The magnets 14 attached to the underside of the die plate are attached to the die shoe and thus securely hold the die plate to the die shoe. The smaller and magnetically weaker end of the magnets 14 is attached to the die shoe 18 so that when the die plate and template are removed from the die shoe, the magnets remain attached to the die plate.
The punch plate 11, template 15, magnets 14 and punch holder or shoe 10 are assembled in a similar manner to locator posts 16. The template 15 has a central opening 0 therein as in the template 15 of the lower half of the die set, with the punch steel 13 extended therethrough, and the ends of the magnets having to the lesser strength are attached to the punch holder or punch shoe 10 so that the magnets are normally carried by the punch plate.
The construction of the magnets 14 is seen best in FIGS. 5 through 8. Each magnet 14 preferably has a one-piece metal core 25 of cylindrical configuration and with approximately one-half 25a of the length of the magnet reduced in diameter relative to the other half 25b. If desired, however, the metal core could be made in two separate pieces separated by a nonmagnetic insulator I indicated in phantom lines in FIG. 6. Radially outwardly extending flanges 26 and 27 are formed on the adjacent ends of core halves 25a and 25b, respectively, and a suitable magnet 28 of Alnico, ceramic, or the like is secured in surrounding relationship to core half 25b in abutting relationship with flange 27. An insulator 29 of non-magnetic material is interposed between the magnet 28 and core half 25b and a non-magnetic shield 30 is secured in surrounding relationship to the magnet 28 and flange 27. An annular steel ring base 31 is secured in surrounding relationship to the end of core half 25b opposite flange 27 and against the end of magnet 28. The steel ring base 31 is also sandwiched between insulator 29 and shield 30.
As seen in FIG. 6, the steel ring base 31 has an annular notch 32 formed in the inner marginal edge thereof and the insulator 29 has an outwardly turned flange 33 received in the notch 32. A suitable filler material 34 is placed in the notch over the flange 33 to prevent chips, dirt and the like from collecting on the end of the magnet 14.
The reduced diameter end 25a of the magnet 14 is constructed substantially identical to the large end 2512, and the same reference numerals primed are applied to like parts.
A central, longitudinally extending opening 35 extends through the center of the core 25 and serves to slightly reduce the power of the magnet. Opening 35 may be eliminated if desired, however.
A slightly modified magnet 14' is illustrated in FIG. 8 and is substantially identical to the magnet 14, except that a small pin 36 is secured fitted within the opening 35 of the magnet 14 and a plurality of shallow holes or recesses 37 are formed in the rear surfaces of the punch plate and die plate for receiving the projection portion of the pin 36 on the magnets so that the magnets 14' are accurately positioned and located on the die halves at the point where they supply the most effective support to the die halves during operation.
Without the pins 36 recesses 37, the magnets 14 could be improperly positioned on the respective die halves and thus improper support would be provided for the die halves during the performance of work therewith. The pins and recesses insure against this.
A complete die set S is indicated in FIG. 9, with the punch plate 11 and template 15 assembled to the punch holder or shoe 10 and the die steel 20 and template 15 assembled to the die shoe 18. As illustrated,
the upper half U of the die set comprises the male half, and the lower half L of the die set comprises the female half.
FIG. is a plan view of the punch plate 11, punch pad 12 and punch steel 13 and showing the location of the punch steel on the punch pad and the positioning of the magnets 14 on the back side of the punch plate. As seen in this figure, the punch plate 11 has a pin 22 or post in each of the corners thereof substantially identical to the pins or posts 22 on the die plate 19 and for substantially the same purpose.
FIG. 11 is a plan view of the die plate 19 and die steel and showing the arrangement of the magnets 14 on the back side thereof. FIG. 12 is a sectional view of the invention shown in operative position performing work on a workpiece W placed therebetween. As seen in this figure, elastomer or spring strippers 38 are provided on the punch pad 12 adjacent the punch steel 13 for stripping the work material W from the punch steel when the press is separated. Further, elastomer or spring ejectors 39 are provided on the die plate 19 adjacent the die steel 20 for ejecting the work material after the operation is performed thereon in the press. Slugs may also drop through the die onto the surface of the die shoe. A gage pin 40 is provided on the lower half L of the die set for locating the workpiece to assure relative position of punched holes to the periphery of the workpiece. The gages may or may not be used.
In the present invention, the use of double ended magnets 14 and templates l5 and 15 enables a die set to be built and installed in a press much more economically and much more quickly than with the prior art devices, and the die halves are readily reusable due to their being easily attached and removed from the punch holder or shoe and die shoe, respectively.
Further, the magnets 14 attached between the die shoe l8 and die plate 19 serve to space the die plate upwardly to a desired elevated position and accordingly, the amount of steel which is required in the die plate is substantially less than in conventional, prior art devices, wherein the die plate itself must be made thicker in order to properly space the die plate and die steel from the die shoe.
As this invention may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, the present embodiment is therefore illustrative and not restrictive, since the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than by the description preceding them, and all changes that fall within the metes and bounds of the claims or that form their functional as well as conjointly cooperative equivalents, are therefore intended to be embraced by those claims.
