Abstract

Abstract An automatic device for supplying an elastomer or like material for an intion machine comprising an injection cylinder and a piston, wherein the piston is controlled by a hydraulic multiplier device formed by two stages, the first stage being called the downstream stage and the second stage being called the upstream multiplier stage, and wherein the device comprises a sensor for controlling the supplying of the cylinder with material so as to stock said cylinder by an electrically driven tape advance unit, the sensor being brought into play when the piston is moved in the forward direction, a pressure controller for tripping the upstream multiplier stage to multiply the pressure in the injection cylinder, the pressure controller being controlled from a pressure threshold of the fluid supply of the first downstream stage and an end of travel sensor for tripping the return of the first and second stages to make the piston return at the end of the injection.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
An automatic device for supplying an elastomer or like material for an injection machine comprising an injection cylinder and a piston, wherein the piston is controlled by a hydraulic multiplier device formed by two stages, the first stage being called the downstream stage and the second stage being called the upstream multiplier stage, each stage having a fluid supply, and wherein the device comprises means for controlling the supplying of the cylinder with material so as to stock said cylinder by means of an electrically driven tape advance unit, said control means operating when said piston is moved in the downstream direction, means for starting said upstream multiplier stage to multiply the pressure in said injection cylinder, said starting means being controlled from a pressure threshold of the fluid supply of said first downstream stage and means for actuating said first and second stages to make the piston return at the end of the injection.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
An automatic device for supplying an elastomer or like material for an injection machine comprising an injection cylinder and a piston, wherein the piston is controlled by a hydraulic multiplier device formed by two stages, the first stage being called the downstream stage and the second stage being called the upstream multiplier stage, each stage having a fluid supply, and wherein the device comprises means for controlling the supplying of the cylinder with material so as to stock said cylinder by means of an electrically driven tape advance unit, said control means operating when said piston is moved in the downstream direction, means for starting said upstream multiplier stage to multiply the pressure in said injection cylinder, said starting means being controlled from a pressure threshold of the fluid supply of said first downstream stage and means for actuating said first and second stages to make the piston return at the end of the injection.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein said means for controlling supplying with material comprise a sensor which is tripped by the movement from a protruding position of the piston and which controls the advance of a strip of material intended to stock the injection cylinder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein said means for tripping the multiplier stage comprise a pressure controller disposed at the input of the fluid supply of said downstream stage.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein said means for actuating said first and second stages to return said piston comprise an end of travel sensor controlling injection of compressed air to said first and second stages.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
A device according to claim 4, wherein said end of travel sensor is actuated by a rod integral with the piston of the upstream multiplier stage.
