Abstract
Abstract A method and machine for use in hydrostatic extrusion wherein a portion of an elastic-plastic viscous pressure medium is introduced into the rear portion of a container, with the rear end thereof being sealed in a fluid tight fashion. The pressure medium being of such a nature that it has a high viscosity and cannot flow by itself. Subsequently, a billet is charged into the container and then a die is mounted in the container at the forward end thereof. The aforesaid pressure medium is caused to fill around the outer circumferential surface of the billet. In this respect, a high pressure seal is provided for the junctions between the die and the forward end of the container and between the die and the forward end of the billet before the pressure medium flows out of the container in a practically negligible small amount, immediately after which a pressure stem is pushed into the container from the rear end thereof, thus proceeding with the hydrostatic extrusion.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of use in hydrostatic extrusion comprising the steps of: sealing a stem in the rear portion of a container in a fluidtight manner; inserting, from the forward end of said container, a lump of viscous pressure medium being capable of hydrostatically transmitting pressure, into the rear portion of said container; subsequently charging, from the forward end of said container, a pre-heated billet together with a die mounted at the front end of said billet into said container, thereby causing said pressure medium to fill around said pre-heated billet, discharging substantially all air from said container, before any excess flow of said pressure medium flows out of said container; immediately thereafter, elevating the pressure required for hydrostatic extrusion by pushing said stem forwardly from said rear portion of said container such that homogeneous pressure is hydrostatically applied to said billet by means of said viscous pressure medium.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of use in hydrostatic extrusion comprising the steps of: sealing a stem in the rear portion of a container in a fluidtight manner; inserting, from the forward end of said container, a lump of viscous pressure medium being capable of hydrostatically transmitting pressure, into the rear portion of said container; subsequently charging, from the forward end of said container, a pre-heated billet together with a die mounted at the front end of said billet into said container, thereby causing said pressure medium to fill around said pre-heated billet, discharging substantially all air from said container, before any excess flow of said pressure medium flows out of said container; immediately thereafter, elevating the pressure required for hydrostatic extrusion by pushing said stem forwardly from said rear portion of said container such that homogeneous pressure is hydrostatically applied to said billet by means of said viscous pressure medium.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
75 words
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein said pressure medium used is selected from the following groups: a) a grease group comprising: 1. soap type greases being composed of a petroleum oil and soaps such as fatty acids, soaps of sodium and calcium and lithium, 2. complex greases in which the soap phases are prepared by the solidification of compounds composed of soap and complexing agent such as water, salt, or the like, 3.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
57 words
non-soap type greases in which metal phtalocyanines, silicas, metal oxides, and the like are used as a gelling agent. b. wax or fat group comprising beeswax, carnauba wax, montan wax, spemaceti wax, woll wax, lanolin, lard. c. mixture or suspension in which a solid lubricant such as molybdenum disulfide, graphite, lead oxide, polytetrafluorethylene or the like is
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
57 words
non-soap type greases in which metal phtalocyanines, silicas, metal oxides, and the like are used as a gelling agent. b. wax or fat group comprising beeswax, carnauba wax, montan wax, spemaceti wax, woll wax, lanolin, lard. c. mixture or suspension in which a solid lubricant such as molybdenum disulfide, graphite, lead oxide, polytetrafluorethylene or the like is
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
56 words
added to the aforesaid material belonging to said a) or b) group. 3. A method as defined in claim 1, wherein, prior to the charge of said billet into said container, said billet is preheated up to 500°C, while said pressure medium is preheated up to a temperature below the drop point of said pressure medium.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
39 words
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein the temperature at the inner wall of said container is maintained at a temperature below the drop point of said pressure medium, upon insertion of the pressure medium into said container.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
45 words
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein, before inserted into said container, the pressure medium, billet and die are arranged in series in the above order from said container, and are then inserted simultaneously into said container along the center line of said container.
