Definitions
- ABSTRACT A forging press comprises two press rams slidably movable against each other in rigid slide tracks by a drive including, for each ram, two eccentric shafts coupled for rotation in opposite senses, an eccentric carried by each shaft, a respective slide block surrounding each eccentric, an elliptic chuck containing the two slide blocks, a rotatable screw and thrust rod member extending centrally through the chuck between the slide blocks and having at one end screw threads in threaded engagement with screw threads on the associated press ram, and being corotationally connected at its other end to an adjusting gearing.
- the rod member is axially displaceable relative to the gearmg.
- This invention relates to a high-speed forging press, which comprises two press rams, which are slidable in rigid slide tracks and to act against each other and are adapted to be driven by eccentric shafts, slide blocks surrounding the eccentrics on said shafts, and elliptic chucks.
- This time of contact includes the time of the actual deformation and the times in which the machine exhibits a resilient expansion and contraction. Mainly in hydraulic presses the resilient expansion and contraction take more time than the deformation. An increase of the time of contact is accompanied by an increase of the heat quantity which is transferred from the workpiece to the forging tools. The tools may thus be heated until they are red hot and such a high temperature rise will obviously greatly increase the wear of the tools. This large heat transfer from the workpiece to the tool has also a highly adverse effect on the quality of the forging because it results in a premature formation of cracks on the surface and in a depressing of the surface.
- hydraulic forging presses are highly undesirable because in addition to the mechanical compliance of the various components of the machine, such as rams, press frame, and the likethere is a hydraulic compliance, which is a multiple of the strictly mechanical compliance and is due to the compressibility of the hydraulic fluid used in relatively large amounts, and to the elasticity of the pipelines and containers etc. which are required.
- the strictly mechanical forging press is most desirable.
- the forging press is mechanically driven, in most cases by eccentrics, and in its stroke position can be adjusted by mechanical means, so that the spring excursions are within tolerable limits.
- a comparison of the spring excursions of a mechanical forging press, a semihydraulic forging press and a fully hydraulic forging press shows that the use of a hydraulic fluid adds greatly to the spring capacity. For instance, in a press capable of exerting a force of 1,000 metric tons, the spring excursion is about millimeters in a fully hydraulic plant, about 15 millimeters in a semihydraulic plant, and only 5 millimeters in a strictly mechanical plant. It is apparent from these values that the times of contact vary greatly in the different types of machines.
- a great disadvantage of mechanical forging presses is the fact that they permit only of a relatively complicated and closely limited adjustment of the stroke position because separate adjusting housings are required for this purpose and large machine components are needed as the forging forces increase.
- the driving eccentric shafts would have to be very large in diameter so that their manufacture would become too difficult and the size of their bearings in the machine and consequently the overall size of the entire machine would become intolerably large.
- the expenditure involved in the conventional means, such as adjusting housings or the like, required to adjust the stroke position would hardly be justifiable. For this reason, the previously known, strictly mechanical forging presses can be used only to exert small forging forces.
- each press ram has associated with it at least two eccentric shafts, which are coupled to rotate in opposite senses, and that the associated slide blocks are contained in a common elliptic chuck, which is connected to the press rarn by a rotationally adjustable drive mechanism, which includes a screw, which serves also as a thrust rod and extends between the slide blocks centrally through the elliptic chuck and is rotatable in and axially fixed to said elliptic chuck and is guided at one end in female screw threads of the press ram and at the other end is corotationally connected and axially displaceable relative to an adjusting gearing, preferably a worm gearing.
- a rotationally adjustable drive mechanism which includes a screw, which serves also as a thrust rod and extends between the slide blocks centrally through the elliptic chuck and is rotatable in and axially fixed to said elliptic chuck and is guided at one end in female screw threads of the press ram and at the other end is corotationally connected and axially
- this highspeed forging press is driven and operated by strictly mechanical means, the spring excursion is minimized and the at least two eccentric shafts provided for each press ram prevent an excessive increase of the dimensions of components of machines designed for exerting large forging forces.
- the load previously applied to one eccentric shaft is shared by a plurality of such shafts so that machines having components having approximately the same dimensions as before can be used to exert much larger forging forces.
- the slide blocks which are guided in a common elliptic chuck and which during the reciprocation of the press ram slide toward or apart from each other constrain the screw to move exactly in the axis of the press ram and ensure a steady and reliable operation of the press ram.
- the screw is guided by female screw threads of the press ram so that a rotation of the screw will result in a change of the distance between the elliptic chuck and press ram since the screw is axially fixed and rotatable relative to the elliptic chuck.
- the adjusting means i.e., the screw, can be driven because the same carries at its end remote from the press ram a drive wheel, which is part of an adjusting gearing and transmits its rotation to the screw.
- the drive wheel must be slidable along the axis of the screw so that theadjusting gearing can be mounted in a fixed position and yet the screw can perform its working movement without complications although the adjusting gearing is mounted in a fixed position.
- the term working movement refers to the reciprocating motion which is imparted to the screw by the eccentrics, the slide blocks and the elliptic chuck and which is transmitted by the screw to the press ram.
- the range in which the press rams can be adjusted depends only on the axial extent of the female screw threads and of the screw-threaded portion of the screw.
- the structural expenditure remains within the conventional range and the structure of the machine itself is sufficiently rugged to ensure an operation involving no problems.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevation showing partly in section a high-speed forging press according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken on line lIII in FIG. 1, and
- FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken on line Ill-III in FIG. 1.
- the high-speed forging press generally designated 1 has two horizontally guided press rams 2, which act against each other and are slidable in rigid slide tracks 4 in a forging box 3.
- Two eccentric shafts 5 are associated with each press ram 2 and are coupled for joint rotation by a spur gearing 6.
- Each of the eccentric shafts 5 comprises an eccentric 7, which is surrounded by a slide block 8.
- the corresponding slide blocks 8 move with mirror symmetry in a common elliptic chuck 9.
- the elliptic chuck 9 is connected to the press ram 2 by a mechanism which comprises a screw 10, which is axially fixed in and rotatable relative to the elliptic chuck 9 and which transmits the movement of the elliptic chuck to the press ram.
- the screw 10 extends centrally through the elliptic chuck and between the slide blocks 8. It is guided at one end in female screw threads 11 of the press ram 2 and at the other end is corotationally coupled to and axially displaceable relative to the adjusting gearing 12, which in most cases consists of a worm gearing.
- the high-speed forging press 1 is driven by two synchronized motors 13. Each motor 13 rotates by means of clutches 14, 15 and intermediate gear trains 16 the eccentric shafts associated with a press ram 2 so that the working motion is imparted to the press ram 2. To adjust the stroke position of the press rams 2, the screw 10 serving as a thrust rod is rotated by the adjusting gearings 12, which are also synchronized. This results in a change of the distance between the elliptic chuck 9 and the press ram 2 and consequently in a change of the stroke position. Because the forging press according to the invention is driven by strictly mechanical means, it has only a small overall compliance so that only a small spring excursion must be overcome in each working stroke of the press rams. This affords the advantage that only a small loss is involved as this spring capacity is overcome and that the time of contact between the tool and workpiece is short. This is essential for a high quality of the forgings and for the profitability of the machine.
