Definitions
- ABSTRACT A unique die button and die plate providing an improved die unit utilizing a pressured flow of air to more effectively cleanse the working area of a die assembly. Inclined air-flow passages are provided such that they extend through the die button wall in a direction to produce a whirlpool effect to move cut material through the die bore.
- a die assembly includes upper and lower die unitsnormally fixed, respectively, to upper and lower die shoes.
- the upper die unit mounts cutting tools which, in operation, are advanced to engage and cut, punch or form a work piece based on the lower die unit.
- the latter incorporates passages defined by die buttons, which passages are intended to align with the tools and, hopefully, pas s slugs or other particles separated from a work piece.
- Another object of the invention is to provide uniquely improved die buttons for use in die assemblies.
- a further object of the invention is to provide in a die plate embodying die buttons a complementary forming Industry has been seriously afflicted with the above SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
- the present invention utilizes pressure and vacuum but, by contrast to prior art devices directed to similar purposes, is simple in its structural embodiment, inexpensive to adopt, and most effective in use. It provides a die plate having a main intake passage into which may be plugged the delivery end of a line from any conventional available source of air under pressure. Leading from this main intake-passage are branches, each of which opens to a through aperture in the die plate, in which aperture is press fit the tubular die button.
- the die buttons are uniquely formed to receive and direct the air channelled through said branches under pressure to exit within and produce in the upper end of the die buttons the effect of a strong. whirlpool.
- This effect is so located and of such a nature to induce a positive displacement of slugs, shavings and other particles from adjacent surthereof enabling the simple and selective application therein of a pressured flow of air in a manner to maintain working areas of the die plate clear of particles which may be detached from a superposed work piece.
- An additional object of the invention is to provide a system for maintaining the working area of a die or like assembly clear utilizing individual, replaceable, die buttons constructed to direct a pressured flow of air to create within the die buttons and apply to areas adjacent thereto a whirlpool effect capable of detaching free particles which tend to adhere to adjacent surfaces.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a die unit of the class described and improved die buttons therefor possessing the advantageous structural features, the inherent meritorious characteristics, the reliability of range and mode of operation and the method of use herein described.
- FIG. 1 is a generally diagrammatic fragmentary view of a lower die unit embodying the concepts of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line 22 of FIG. 1 and illustrating details of a die button in accordance with the invention
- FIG. 3 is a fragmentary top view of the structure illustrated in FIG. 2, highlighting certain details of the die button;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to that shown in FIG. 2 but illustrating a different embodiment of the invention, taken on 4-4 of FIG. 5.
- the invention relates to improvements in die assemblies but more particularly the lower die unit. For this reason, only the lower die unit is shown in detail in the drawings. The remainder of the die assembly is not illustrated since in and of itself it forms no part of the invention and may be of any con- .ventional nature well known to those versed in the art.
- the lower die shoe 10 acts as a support and a mount for a releasably attached die retainer plate 11.
- Bolts or other suitable fastening means may be used to releasably hold the plate 11 to a firm seat on the upper planar surface 12 of the shoe 10.
- the shoe is suitably machined, as by boring, to form therein vertical through passages 13. The latter extend perpendicular to and open at their upper ends from the surface 12.
- the die retainer plate 11 has a planar undersurface 15 adapted to seat closely in abutting relation to the surface 12 of the die shoe 10. Similarly the plate 11 has a flat planar upper or outer surface 16 over which work pieces W may be advanced in either a continuous or with an incremental feeding motion. In coaxial alignment with each related cutting tool the plate 11 has a through aperture 17 defining a working position of the lower die unit and opening to a coaxial passage 13 in the die shoe 10 therebelow.
- the plate 11 is provided with a bore opening from one edge 18 thereof defining a main intake passage 19.
- a plurality of extensions or branches 20 communicate at one end with the passage 19 and each separately opens at 21 to a separate individual aperture 17.
- the opening 21 from the intake passage 19 is in relatively closely spaced adjacent relation to the upper surface 16 of the plate 11.
- the adapter 22 will preferably be of the type to afford a means for a quick coupling thereto of a mating adapter 23 on the discharge end of an air supply hose 24.
- the quick connect-disconnect type of coupling afforded by the adapters 22 and 23 may be any one of the available mechanical expedients well known to mechanics in the art.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a single working position of the lower die unit as defined by an aperture l7 and for purpose of description and understanding of the invention there shown in association therewith the cutting end of a punch P as it approaches the work piece in the function thereof.
- a die element or button 25 press fit in each aperture 17 in plate 11 is a die element or button 25.
- the latter is formed with a generally cylindrical configuration and is designed to have a length that, when properly inserted, its flat planar ends will lie respectively in the planes defined by the plate surfaces 15 and 16 of plate 11. It will be obvious that by reason of its press fit nature, as an individual die button becomes worn or the character of the work to which the die assembly is applied changes, the die button may be simply replaced.
- the die button will in any event have a through bore 26 positioning coaxial, in the illustrated instance, with a punch P and with a passage 13 in the die shoe l0 therebelow.
- the bore 26, at its end positioning adjacent the passage 13, will be counterbored.
- the counterbored portion 27 so provided will extend, for example, approximately three-quarters of the length of the bore 26 and will have a diameter increased slightly relative thereto but slightly less in dimension than the diameter of the passage 13 in alignment therewith.
- the portion of the bore 26 uppermost and immediately underlying the work piece W will be dimensioned to matingly accommodate the dimension of the related punch P which in operation thereof will descent on the work piece and cut therefrom a slug which will be carried thereby into the accommodating bore 26.
- the expansion provided by the counterbore 27 gives slightly greater freedom to the slug as it is pushed inwardly of the bore 26 by the punch P. The importance of this will soon become obvious.
- the passage 13 provides a means for any particle delivered through the bore 26 to exit to a waste receptacle or collector means (not shown).
- FIG. 2 there is milled in the outer wall surface of the die button, towards the upper end and circumferentially thereof, a groove 28 the base 29 of which is uniformly arcuate in cross section. It will be noted in FIG. 2 that the upper edge of the groove coincides generally with the shoulder defined by the counterbore 27 in the bore 26, which shoulder is in closely spaced adjacent relation to the surface 16 of the die retainer plate 11. Attention is also directed to the fact at this point that a branch 20 of the air intake passage 19 in the plate 11 will open to the groove 28 closely adjacent its upper end. Further formed in the wall of the sleeve-like die button 25, in this instance, are three circumferentially spaced portlike passages 30.
- the passages 30 open at one end to the groove 28, adjacent the upper end thereof on a level immediately below the discharge end 21 of an airflow passage 20. Moreover, the passages 30 are directed to open in a sense substantially tangential to the wall defined by counterbore 27 and in a sense inclined downwardly thereof towards the bottom or inner end of the button.
- the jets In exit of the series of the three jets illustrated issuing from the passages 30, the jets will be peripherally guided by the wall defined by counterbore 27. There will be produced thereby supplementing air streams having a downward inclination and at the same time-a strong rotary component of movement causing a whirlpool effect the center of which is the button axis. As will be seen, this whirlpool is produced adjacent the upper end portion of the bore 26 and the jets of air so functioning will have a plural effect. The center of the whirlpool produced creates a suction effect.
- each die button 21 maybe of .different size according to the character of the work being preferred that the position within the die button at which point the whirlpool is created in the counterbore 27 should be at a point where there may be produced an extended depth of the whirlpool.
- the related passage 13 may be utilized to extend the whirlpool effect and that the depth of the effect and correspondingly the drawdown power thereof will be in direct relation to the pressure and velocity at which air is delivered under pressure by way of the passage or passages 30 opening to the interior of the die button.
- FIG. 1 of the drawings diagrammatically illustrates a plurality of working positions in a die assembly. It may be, however, that in a particular instance only a single die position such as illustrated in FIG. 2 will be utilized for the work to be accomplished.
- the plate 11 may be provided with a single aperture 17 and a press fit die button 25 as illustrated with which the plate passage 19 may communicate.
- a plate having multiple working positions such as shown in FIG. 1 may be utilized and in such event those working positions not utilized may be plugged by a conventional die button or insert.
- a die retainer plate having multiple working positions may be variably utilized and air under pressure selectively directed only to those die buttons where'the situation requires.
- FIG. 4 of the drawings illustrates a modification of the die retainer plate and die button concept of the invention shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the die shoe 10 will be formed as previously described and the pertinent portions thereof are identified by the same numbers as utilized in reference to the previously described embodiments of the invention.
- the difference in reference to the die retainer plate is that in this instance the plate; identified as 41, had formed in its undersurface 15', which positions in abutting superposed relationto the surface 12 on the die shoe 10, a milled groove or slot 39 forming with portions of surface 12 a main air intake passage 39 for the plate.
- Similarly formed in the surface 15 are branches or extensions 40 of the main intake passage 39.
- each branch 40 opens to one of a plurality of apertures 17' formed in the working positions of the die plate. It will of course be obvious that in this embodiment of the invention, equally as in the instance first described, the surface 15' of the die retainer plate and the abutted surface 12 of the die shoe must mate in sealing relation.
- the apertures 17 accommodating the die buttons in the plate 41 will be formed and positioned as basically required for the range of the application of the plate.
- the die button 45 utilized is a modification of the die button 25.
- the interior of the die button 45 is formed identically as that of the die button 25, being provided with a bore 26 and a counterbore 27, the latter being of a depth equal to that provided in the case of the counter bore 27.
- the outer periphery of the sleeve-like button 45 has a circumferential groove 48.
- the latter is positioned generally as the groove 28 but its cross section is different.
- the inner or base portion of the groove 48 has a definite cylindrical configuration providing a surface 50 concentric with the outermost and innermost peripheral wall portions of the die button.
- the limit of the base portion 50 is defined by an annular shoulder 51 defining a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of the die button and one which is almost common with the plane defined by the shoulder produced by the inner end of the counterbore 27.
- the lower limit of the groove 48 is defined by an annular shoulder 52.
- the latter has a generally conical configuration and expands in a sense downwardly of the die button 45.
- the outer peripheral surface of the die button is cut back to a conical form by a chamfer 53.
- the latter is circumferentially continuous so that when a die button is inserted in the plate 41, such as shown in FIG. 4, there is produced a space 60 about the outer periphery of the die button at its bottom which communicates with a related air passage 40, as illustrated.
- flats 54 defined at circumferentially spaced locations on the outer periphery of the sleeve-type die button 45, in longitudinally extended surface portions thereof between the chamfer surface 53 and the shoulder 52, are flats 54. As may be seen, these flats 54 define, with the wall of aperture 17, passages which afford a direct communication between air passage 39-40 and the circumferential groove 48 in the outer periphery of the die button.
- the die button 45 has passages 30 formed in the walls thereof similar to passages 30 of the die button 25.
- the passages 30' in this case open at one end through the shoulder 52 and are so angled, both downwardly and inwardly, to open in the wall defined by the counterbore 27' so as to discharge in a sense downwardly of the die button and in a sense generally tangential to the wall of the counterbore.
- the plate 41 will have an adapter applied to define the inlet to the intake passage 39 serving as a quick connect device for a conventional air hose delivering air under pressure. Further, upon application of the air hose, as and when required, a pressured flow of air through the passage 39 and its extension or extensions 40 will produce circumferentially of the related die buttons 45, in the groove 48, a whirling flow of air under pressure which will be forced inwardly of the passages 30' to exit within the die button and create the whirlpool effect as previously described.
- the level at which the whirlpool will be effected will be slightly lower in the die button but will generally serve equally as well as in the first instance for many ordinary applications.
- the prime benefit of the fabrication of the die retainer plate in the manner as described with reference to the plate 41 is a simplicity of manufacture of the retainer plate. In the instance first described, for some applications the formation of the branch passages might of necessity, for the particular application, be somewhat more expensive.
- the air channels in the plate 11 might be formed in the bottom surface 15 such as described with reference to the example shown in FIG. 4.
- the die button 25 could be provided, between its groove 28 and bottom chamfer 33, with flats and such button could be utilized with a die retainer plate such as 41 in an obvious manner.
- the die retainer plate will be formed complementary to the invention die buttons and the air passages therein may be created by any suitable forming of the retainer plate, a variety of procedures enabling the same being well known to the mechanics versed in the art. It may be that where the working positions of the die retainer plates of the lower die unit are of such number and so complex that a single intake passage is inadequate. In such case there may be plural intake passages connected with a selective plurality of working positions and die buttons, in each of which air under pressure may be provided simply by plugging in a hose.
