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: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 150 words
A hydrostatic extrusion machine comprising: a container movable along and aligned with the center line of said hydrostatic extrusion machine, a press platen located forwardly of said container, a sliding member interposed between said press platen and said container and mounted transversely slidably on said press platen, with respect to said center line of said machine, a die block, having a die, provided on said sliding member so as to define an extrusion station, a device for supplying pressure medium into said container provided on said sliding member so as to define a charging station, and a first hydraulic cylinder means mounted on said press platen and operatively connected to said sliding member for reciprocatingly sliding said sliding member between said extrusion and charging stations so as to alternatively disposed said pressure medium supplying device and said die along said center line of said machine for charging and extruding operations.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 150 words
A hydrostatic extrusion machine comprising: a container movable along and aligned with the center line of said hydrostatic extrusion machine, a press platen located forwardly of said container, a sliding member interposed between said press platen and said container and mounted transversely slidably on said press platen, with respect to said center line of said machine, a die block, having a die, provided on said sliding member so as to define an extrusion station, a device for supplying pressure medium into said container provided on said sliding member so as to define a charging station, and a first hydraulic cylinder means mounted on said press platen and operatively connected to said sliding member for reciprocatingly sliding said sliding member between said extrusion and charging stations so as to alternatively disposed said pressure medium supplying device and said die along said center line of said machine for charging and extruding operations.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 89 words
A hydrostatic extrusion machine as defined in claim 1, wherein said device further comprises: a cylinder for holding pressure medium having an opening at the container side thereof, a pusher adapted to slide reciprocatingly within said cylinder for charging said pressure medium into said container from said cylinder during a charging operation, piston means connected with said pusher, and a second hydraulic cylinder means connected to said piston means for driving said pusher reciprocatingly so as to repetitively charge said pressure medium into said container during a charging operation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A hydrostatic extrusion machine as defined in claim 2, wherein: said pusher is provided with a recessed portion being elongated longitudinally upon the circumferential portion of said pusher for discharging air from said container.
