Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a telescopic tool, for a waste ejection station in a sheet-working machine, comprising a hollow cylindrical body in which engages the rear part of a needle having a flange, one of the faces of which bears against the lower part of a first bore of the hollow cylindrical body and the other face of which is in contact with one end of a compression spring housed in said first bore closed at its upper end by a plug serving tool fixing member and support piece for the other end of the compression spring, the needle being guided with play in said plug and in the lower part of the hollow cylindrical body from which the front part protrudes of said needle.
  • these frames are moved in an alternating vertical movement intended to apply the ends of the upper and lower needles to the surface of the waste, so as to first pinch it then, in a second operation, to accompany it downwards in a plane different from the plane of the sheet and then, to release it by moving the frames away again and, there, the needles, so that the waste can be removed from the sheet.
  • the needle therefore moves back and forth in its hollow cylindrical body.
  • the sheets contain a large number of wastes to be ejected and that, consequently, the upper and lower frames will be equipped with a large number of telescopic tools. It is obvious that the mass represented by the frames and the tools will be significant and that, in the case of rapid presses which are used in this field, the inertial forces brought into play will be significant, and that the control of the press should be sized accordingly.
  • the hollow cylindrical bodies of the tools have been made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, and the needles themselves have been made of steel.
  • the use of such telescopic tools mounted in their lower and upper frames has many disadvantages when it is desired to further increase the speed of production of the press.
  • the first of these drawbacks lies in the significant noise resulting from the arrival in contact of the steel needles with the waste to be treated.
  • the second disadvantage relates to the wear, by matting, of the tips of the needles, which, in certain cases of advanced wear, causes, by the decomposition of the force of support of the tips of the needles on the waste, jamming of the needle in the bores of the hollow cylindrical body and of the closure cap thereof. It has, in fact, been noticed, during production, that the point of the needles deformed in such a way that it could have an inclined plane. It has even been observed, in certain cases, a total rupture of the needle due to the significant forces which it underwent following the wear of its end.
  • the skew wear of the needle point can come either from a bad alignment between the upper needle and the lower needle, or from a defective assembly, for example skew, of the telescopic tools.
  • a third disadvantage is represented by the relatively large mass of each of the telescopic tools which obliges the manufacturer of the cutting press to use highly dimensioned control members which, by the evidence, has an unfavorable influence on the increase in speed. of production sought.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a solution to existing problems, without complicating current construction principles and without increasing, to an unsustainable extent, the price of a telescopic tool. It has, in particular, the advantage of ensuring perfect contact of the end of the needle with the waste to be ejected while avoiding the risk of jamming thereof, this without taking into account the angle of action thereof against the waste.
  • the elastic quality of the deformable element reduces, to an appreciable extent, the wear of the contact faces of the tool with the waste, which has a non-negligible influence on the lifetime of the latter. while ensuring better pinching of the waste to be ejected.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic longitudinal section through a telescopic tool 1 which comprises a hollow cylindrical body 2, preferably of synthetic material, in which is machined a first bore 3 in the extension of which is machined a second bore 4 having a diameter smaller.
  • the first bore has, at its upper end, a thread 5 into which a plug 6 is screwed.
  • the plug 6 is arranged so as to have a thread 7 intended for fixing the telescopic tool in the supports of a frame d ejection (not shown).
  • This plug 6 also has a guide bore 8 for the rear part 9a of the needle 10. Two holes 11 and 12 open at the top of the guide bore 8.
  • the needle 10 has a rear part 9a and a front part 9b, separated by a flange 13.
  • the front part 9b of the needle 10 is composed of a rigid element 14 and a deformable element 15.
  • the rear part 9a of the needle 10 is equipped with a compression spring 16 which rests, on the one hand, on the face 17 of the flange 13 and, on the other hand, against the face 18 of the plug 6.
  • the front part 9b of the needle 10 is guided in the second bore 4 and it is provided with a noise damping member 19 placed between the face 20 of the flange 13 and the lower part 21 of the first bore 3.
  • the rear parts 9a and front 9b of the needle 10 slide freely in the two bores 4 and 8.
  • the rigid element 14 of the front part 9b of the needle 10 is advantageously produced by an aluminum rod whose surface has been hardened by an eloxage or anodizing treatment. It should be noted that the entire needle can be treated, so as to present a hardened surface.
  • the deformable element 15 can, for its part, be an elastomer such as polyurethane and be fixed to the rigid element by vulcanization or optionally by bonding or any other permanent fixing means.
  • any other elastomer such as natural or synthetic rubber, polyacrylates, neoprene, etc.
  • the elastomer is replaced by any other element having similar elasticity characteristics.
  • the noise damping member 19 is produced, in this embodiment, from an elastomer ring which can, for example, have the same characteristics as the materials used to manufacture the deformable element 15.
