Definitions
- the invention relates to force-locking pliers for transporting steel blocks, steel billets, slabs or the like, with a pliers housing and two two-armed pliers legs, each pivotable about an axis, between whose upper arms a force device for closing and opening the pliers is arranged, during gripping an energy accumulator is charged, which maintains the contact pressure of the pliers legs when transporting the material.
- the force device of each pliers is a hydraulic cylinder.
- a piston pressure accumulator attached to the hydraulic cylinder is used as the energy accumulator, which is charged while the workpiece is being picked up.
- the damping of the collision force that occurs depends on the position of the pliers legs. For example, with the pliers limbs in a vertical position, damping of the vertically acting collision force is not possible at all.
- the invention has for its object to design a pliers of the type mentioned in such a way that it ensures a damping of the collision forces that do not occur on the pliers legs.
- each force arm is mounted on a rocker arm held by a double-acting force accumulator supported on the forceps housing, the axis of rotation of which is arranged on the forceps housing and is offset in a horizontal and vertical direction relative to the axis of the associated forceps leg.
- the first embodiment example according to FIGS. 1 and 2 is placed on force-locking pliers 10 for transporting a steel block 11.
- the pliers 10 which are attached to a crane (not shown) by means of the four support members 13, 14, 15, 16 attached to a pliers housing 12, have two pliers legs 19, 20 which can be pivoted about an axis 17, 18.
- Each axis 17, 18 is rotatably mounted in a rocker 21, 22, the axis of rotation 23, 24 of which forms a swivel joint with the pliers housing 12. Both axes of rotation 23, 24 are offset from their associated axes 17, 18 of the pliers legs 19, 20 in the horizontal direction by the dimension a and in the vertical direction by the dimension b.
- a force accumulator 25, 26 is articulated to each rocker 21, 22 and is supported on a bearing block 27, 28 connected to the pliers housing 12.
- the drive mechanism of the pliers 10 includes a threaded spindle 30 driven by a drive unit 29 with left and right-hand threads and two nuts 31, 32 rotatably mounted on the upper arms of the pliers legs 19, 20.
- the drive unit 29 is held in the direction of the axis of the threaded spindle 30 a fork 33 with two springs 34,35.
- the fork 33 is rotatably mounted in an arm 37 pivotable about an axis 36.
- a rod 38 connected to the drive unit 29 and the pliers housing 12 performs the function of a torque support.
- the forceps closing force causes the two energy stores 25, 26 to be charged via the two rockers 21, 22.
- each double-acting force accumulator 25, 26 fulfills the function of a shock absorber as soon as horizontal or vertical collision forces become effective on the pliers legs 19, 20 in the plane of the pliers.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine kraftschließende Zange zum Transportieren von Stahlblöcken, Stahlknüppeln, Brammen oder dgl, mit einem Zangengehaüse und zwei zweiarmigen, um je eine Achse schwenkbaren Zangenschenkeln, zwischen deren oberen Armen ein Kraftgerät zum Schließen und Öffnen der Zange angeordnet ist, wobei während des Fassens des Werkgutes ein Kraftspeicher aufgeladen wird, der den Anpreßdruck der Zangenschenkel beim Transportieren des Werkgutes aufrechterhält.The invention relates to force-locking pliers for transporting steel blocks, steel billets, slabs or the like, with a pliers housing and two two-armed pliers legs, each pivotable about an axis, between whose upper arms a force device for closing and opening the pliers is arranged, during gripping an energy accumulator is charged, which maintains the contact pressure of the pliers legs when transporting the material.
Eine derartige Zange ist durch die Zeitschrift "Fördern und Heben", Jahrgang 18, 1968, Heft 4, Seiten 865 und 866, bei einem Zangenkran für den Transport warmer Brammen bekannt, bei dem sechs Zangen der eingangs genannten Art auf einer heb- und senkbaren Traverse nebeneinander angeordnet sind.Such a pair of tongs is known from the magazine "Förder und Heben",
Das Kraftgerät einer jeden Zange ist ein Hydraulikzylinder. Als Kraftspeicher, der während des Fassens des Werkgutes aufgeladen wird, ist ein an den Hydraulikzylinder angebauter Kolben-Druck-speicher eingesetzt.The force device of each pliers is a hydraulic cylinder. A piston pressure accumulator attached to the hydraulic cylinder is used as the energy accumulator, which is charged while the workpiece is being picked up.
Mit einer solchen Ausführung ist es möglich, den Kolben-Druck-speicher so an den Hydraulikzylinder anzuschließen, daß er die Funktion eines Stoßdämpfers übernehmen kann. Dies gilt für den Fall der Kollision der geöffneten Zange mit einem Hindernis, wenn die Kollisionskraft im schließenden oder öffnenden Sinne auf einen oder beide Zangenschenkel einwirkt.With such a design, it is possible to connect the piston-pressure accumulator to the hydraulic cylinder in such a way that it can take over the function of a shock absorber. This applies to the case of the collision of the open pliers with an obstacle, if the collision force acts on one or both pliers legs in the closing or opening sense.
Beim Aufschlagen der geöffneten Zange auf ein Hindernis oder auf den Hüttenflur hängt jedoch die Dämpfung der auftretenden Kollisionskraft von der Stellung der Zangenschenkel ab. So ist beispielsweise bei senkrechter Stellung der Zangenschenkel eine Dämpfung der senkrecht wirkenden Kollisionskraft überhaupt nicht möglich.However, when the opened pliers hit an obstacle or the hut floor, the damping of the collision force that occurs depends on the position of the pliers legs. For example, with the pliers limbs in a vertical position, damping of the vertically acting collision force is not possible at all.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Zange der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß sie eine Dämpfung der an den Zangenschenkein auftretenden Kollisionskräfte gewährleistet.The invention has for its object to design a pliers of the type mentioned in such a way that it ensures a damping of the collision forces that do not occur on the pliers legs.
Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung ausgehend von dem eingangs näher bezeichneten. Stand der Technik dadurch gelöst, daß zur Kraftspeicherung jeder Zangenschenkel jeweils an einer von einem doppeltwirkenden, sich auf dem Zangengehäuse abstützenden Kraftspeicher gehaltenen Schwinge gelagert ist, deren am Zangengehäuse angeordnete Drehachse gegenüber der Achse des zugehörigen Zangenschenkels in waagerechter und senkrechter Richtung versetzt angeordnet ist.This object is, according to the invention, based on that specified in the introduction. The state of the art is solved in that each force arm is mounted on a rocker arm held by a double-acting force accumulator supported on the forceps housing, the axis of rotation of which is arranged on the forceps housing and is offset in a horizontal and vertical direction relative to the axis of the associated forceps leg.
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand einer Zeichnung, in der zwei Ausführungsbeispiele schematisch dargestellt sind, beschrieben. Es zeigt
