Definitions

  • the invention relates to a piston of a die casting press for pressing liquid metal - preferably liquid aluminum or liquid brass - out of a casting cylinder, with a cap to be placed on a carrier and to be fastened to the carrier in this way, the cap having an inner cover surface of an end face of the carrier faces.
  • Such a piston is known from EP-A2-423 413.
  • the cap with an internal thread is to be thermally screwed onto an external thread of the carrier.
  • the object of the invention is to facilitate the fitting and fastening of the cap to the carrier in order to enable the cap to be replaced quickly, so that the corresponding downtimes of the machine in which the piston works are reduced.
  • the piston is characterized in that there are recesses in the inner circumferential surface of the cap in the vicinity of its free edge surface for receiving bayonet locking projections on the circumference of the carrier.
  • the piston is preferably characterized in that there are four equally spaced bayonet-lock projections on the carrier, which four insertion recesses in the cap are assigned.
  • the piston is preferably characterized in that the axial dimensions of the Recesses receiving bayonet catch protrusions, allowing an axial movement play between the inner cover surface of the cap and the end face of the wearer, are somewhat larger - preferably 0.1 to 0.2 mm larger - than the axial dimensions of the bayonet catch protrusions.
  • the piston is preferably characterized in that, in order to fix the cap to the carrier, the cap has at least one round recess in its free edge for receiving a head part of a screw to be screwed into the carrier .
  • the cap is preferably provided with a sealing ring in the front area of its circumference, as is known in principle from EP-A2-423 413. It has proven particularly useful in cooperation with the cap according to the invention that the sealing ring not only encompasses an outer circumferential web on the cap with an inner circumferential groove, but also that the sealing ring has a cylindrical inner circumferential surface in front of the circumferential groove, which has two axially successive, cylindrical outer circumferential surface sections of the Encloses the cap at a distance, wherein the front cylindrical outer peripheral surface has a larger diameter than the rear cylindrical outer peripheral surface.
  • the rear cylindrical outer peripheral surface is designed as a retention puncture for solidified liquid metal. Metal that solidifies in the retaining groove spreads the sealing ring apart and thus increases its sealing effect.
  • the sealing ring is held on the cap by the circumferential web.
  • the front boundary surface of the peripheral web forms a stop surface for the sealing ring, so it absorbs an axial pressure on the sealing ring and delimits a sealing zone to the sealing ring.
  • the cap preferably has a ring surface pointing forward at a short distance from a rear end face of the sealing ring.
  • the cap In order to also use liquid metal that is penetrating axially over the outer circumferential surface of the sealing ring, the cap preferably has a section of reduced outer diameter behind the sealing ring that forms a storage zone. If metal enters this storage zone, the user recognizes that the sealing ring no longer has to be completely sealed and replaced.
  • Fig. 1 shows an axial section, partly in side view, of a cap located on a carrier, the carrier being pushed forward relative to the cap.
  • Fig. 2 shows corresponding to Fig. 1 the case that the carrier is pulled back relative to the cap.
  • Fig. 3 shows a section along III-III in Fig. 1 with the cap not yet locked.
  • Fig. 4 shows corresponding to Fig. 3, the locked cap.
  • Fig. 5 shows an exploded view of the cap and carrier.
  • the piston according to the exemplary embodiment has an end to be secured to a carrier 2 and serves as the actual piston Cap 4 on.
  • the cap 4 faces an end face 8 of the carrier 2 with an inner cover surface 6.
  • In the inner circumferential surface 10 of the cap 4 there are four depressions 14 in the vicinity of their free edge surface 12, which have the same angular spacing from one another, for receiving four bayonet catches 16 on the circumference 18 of the carrier 2, respectively.
  • the axial dimensions of the bayonet catch projections 16 Recesses 14 - allowing an axial play of movement between the inner cover surface 6 of the cap 4 and the end face 8 of the carrier 2, as can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, permitting temperature expansion of the cap 4 - are somewhat larger than the axial dimensions of the bayonet lock projections 16.
  • the cap 4 has in its free edge surface 12 a round recess 20 for receiving a head part 22 of a screw 24 to be screwed into the carrier 2.
  • the carrier 2 is provided with an internal thread 26 for screwing onto an external thread of a piston rod, not shown.
  • an internal thread 26 for screwing onto an external thread of a piston rod, not shown.
  • attachment surfaces 28 for a U key on the outside of the carrier are provided.
  • the piston rod and the carrier 2 are axially penetrated by a tube 30 which ends in a bore 32 in front of the end face 8 of the carrier 2.
  • a coolant can be pressed through the tube 30 into a radial cannula 34 in the end face 8 of the carrier, which coolant can then be drawn through axial recesses 36 in a front annular support surface 38 of the carrier via an annular channel 40 and obliquely extending bores 42 in a carrier 2 formed in the carrier 2. the tube surrounding the annular space 44 and from there flows back through the carrier 2. Details of this type of cooling are described in EP-A2-423 413.
  • a sealing ring 46 is schematically shown, which encloses the front end of the cap 4.
  • cap and sealing ring which can also be used independently of the cap 4 which can be plugged onto the carrier 2 by means of a bayonet lock and which is explained in connection with FIGS. 1 to 5, is shown in FIG. 6.
  • Another preferred embodiment has a cap which has a cylindrical projection with an outer ring web on an outer cover surface. This ring web engages in an inner ring groove of a sealing ring.
  • the cylindrical extension is provided with an annular recess, which serves to receive an inner annular web of the sealing ring.
  • the sealing ring and the shoulder have at the front first parallel, then diverging to the front, opposing boundary surfaces.
  • a ring shoulder of the outer cover surface of the cap which is radially delimited by the extension, is opposite a rear boundary surface of the sealing ring at a short distance.
  • the rear boundary surface of the sealing ring merges into the outer peripheral surface of the sealing ring via a run-up slope.
  • the sealing ring In front of the annular groove, the sealing ring has a cylindrical inner circumferential surface which forms a section of the boundary surface and encloses two axially successive cylindrical outer circumferential sections of the cap at a distance, the front cylindrical outer circumferential section having a larger diameter than the rear cylindrical outer circumferential section.
  • the outer peripheral portion thus limits the Retention puncture described at the beginning.
  • the cap has a section of reduced outer diameter which forms the storage zone described at the outset.
  • the liquid metal flows into the spaces between the sealing ring and the cap and in the axial direction over the outer peripheral surface of the sealing ring.
  • the piston is to be moved within an inner circumferential surface of a casting cylinder.
