Abstract
Abstract A punch holder and stripper assembly is shown in which a punch holding body is provided with a reduced outer diameter boss section projecting therefrom terminating in an end face which has a bore opening thereinto which receives the punch, the punch projecting from the reduced diameter section of the holder and terminating in a punching face. An elastomeric stripper, preferably of a type of urethane rubber, is attached to and carried by the punch holder. The stripper has an inner diameter received around the reduced diameter portion of the holder and extending beyond the holder in radially spaced relationship with the projecting portion of the punch. The stripper either terminates adjacent the punching face or is equipped with an end cap terminating adjacent the punching face.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A punch holding device for use in punching comprising: a punch holder having a first body section with an outer diameter dimensioned to be received in a punch holder opening in a punching machine in a relatively close fit relationship, a second body section having a reduced outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the first body section and coaxial therewith projecting from the first body section and terminating in an end face, a punch receiving bore in said punch holder open to the end face having a diameter less than the outer diameter of the second body section, an elastomeric stripper having an outer diameter less than the outer diameter of the first body section and an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the second body section received on the second body section and projecting therefrom beyond the end face.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
145 words
A punch holding device for use in punching comprising: a punch holder having a first body section with an outer diameter dimensioned to be received in a punch holder opening in a punching machine in a relatively close fit relationship, a second body section having a reduced outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the first body section and coaxial therewith projecting from the first body section and terminating in an end face, a punch receiving bore in said punch holder open to the end face having a diameter less than the outer diameter of the second body section, an elastomeric stripper having an outer diameter less than the outer diameter of the first body section and an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the second body section received on the second body section and projecting therefrom beyond the end face.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
117 words
A punch holding device for use in punching comprising: a punch holder member having a first body portion with an end face, a second body portion projecting from the end face terminating in a second end face remote from the end face, the second body portion having a bore extending thereinto from the second end face with a punch received therein projecting beyond the second end face, the punch having an outer diameter less than the second section, an elastomeric stripper having an inner diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the second body section, the stripper press fit on the second body section projecting beyond the second end face in circumferentially spaced relationship to the punch.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
117 words
A punch holding device for use in punching comprising: a punch holder member having a first body portion with an end face, a second body portion projecting from the end face terminating in a second end face remote from the end face, the second body portion having a bore extending thereinto from the second end face with a punch received therein projecting beyond the second end face, the punch having an outer diameter less than the second section, an elastomeric stripper having an inner diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the second body section, the stripper press fit on the second body section projecting beyond the second end face in circumferentially spaced relationship to the punch.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
The device of claim 2 wherein the first body section has a dimension at the end face greater than the outer diameter of the second body section and the stripper has an axial end face abutting the end face of the first body section.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
130 words
In a punch holder having a body with a punch receiving bore therein with a punch in said opening projecting from an end face of the body and a stripper encircling the projecting portion of the punch, the improvement of the body having a reduced dimension projecting boss coaxial with the bore, the boss having an outer diameter greater than the diameter of the punch receiving bore, the boss terminating in an end face from which the punch projects, the stripper having an axial end portion received around the boss and held thereon, the stripper having an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the punch and substantially equal to the outer diameter of the boss, the stripper projecting beyond the boss in radially spaced relation to the punch.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
130 words
In a punch holder having a body with a punch receiving bore therein with a punch in said opening projecting from an end face of the body and a stripper encircling the projecting portion of the punch, the improvement of the body having a reduced dimension projecting boss coaxial with the bore, the boss having an outer diameter greater than the diameter of the punch receiving bore, the boss terminating in an end face from which the punch projects, the stripper having an axial end portion received around the boss and held thereon, the stripper having an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the punch and substantially equal to the outer diameter of the boss, the stripper projecting beyond the boss in radially spaced relation to the punch.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
The device of claim 4 wherein the stripper has an axial end face abutting a ledge wall of the punch holder from which the boss projects.
