Abstract
Abstract A die stem for an extrusion press connected at its one end to a die holder including a first connecting construction such as a screw or a bayonet provided in the inner bore of the end portion of a sleeve received by the inner bore of the die stem, and a second connecting construction such as a screw or a bayonet provided at the rear end projection of the die holder, the second connecting construction being adapted to cooperate with the first connecting construction, whereby the compression stress at the connecting portion thereof due to the extrusion force is prevented from taking place.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
A die stem assembly for an extrusion press, comprising: a elongate die stem having an axial bore therethrough and having a flat end surface at one end thereof, the bore being radially enlarged at said one end; an elongate sleeve fitted in the die stem bore, and having one end radially enlarged complementally to the die stem bore; a die holder having a flat, annular shoulder in abutting engagement with the die stem end surface and having an axial projection extending into said one end of the sleeve; first connecting means engaged between the outer surface of the die holder projection and the inner surface of said one end of the sleeve; and second connecting means engaged between the other end of the sleeve and die stem, holding the die holder and die stem together via the sleeve and connecting means, whereby axial compressive forces on said one end of the die holder and die stem are carried by the axially abutting shoulder and end surface and the connecting means remain substantially free of deforming stresses.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
176 words
A die stem assembly for an extrusion press, comprising: a elongate die stem having an axial bore therethrough and having a flat end surface at one end thereof, the bore being radially enlarged at said one end; an elongate sleeve fitted in the die stem bore, and having one end radially enlarged complementally to the die stem bore; a die holder having a flat, annular shoulder in abutting engagement with the die stem end surface and having an axial projection extending into said one end of the sleeve; first connecting means engaged between the outer surface of the die holder projection and the inner surface of said one end of the sleeve; and second connecting means engaged between the other end of the sleeve and die stem, holding the die holder and die stem together via the sleeve and connecting means, whereby axial compressive forces on said one end of the die holder and die stem are carried by the axially abutting shoulder and end surface and the connecting means remain substantially free of deforming stresses.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The die stem assembly of claim 1, wherein the first and second connecting means comprise a threaded portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
113 words
A die stem assembly as claimed in claim 2, wherein: said one end of said sleeve has threads on the inner surface thereof; the outer surface of the die holder projection has threads thereon for cooperation with the sleeve threads, and with the sleeve threads comprises the first connecting means; and the other end of the sleeve projects beyond the other end of the die stem and has a nut threaded thereon, comprising the second connecting means, whereby the sleeve and first and second connecting means serve merely to hold the die holder to the die stem, and axial compressive forces produced during extrusion are carried by the abutting shoulder and end surface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
29 words
The die stem assembly of claim 1 which further comprises: a die mounted in said die holder; and a die backer disposed within said die holder adjacent said die.
