Abstract
Abstract In an indirect extrusion drawing press comprising a fixed crosspiece to which is fixed a tubular ram which is perforated by an axial orifice for the removal of the wire, a fixed bearing member, a movable crosspiece which is moved by a main jack bearing against the bearing member, a container in which is provided the bore of the billet, and which is interposed between the movable crosspiece and the ram, and a container bottom which is placed on the movable crosspiece along the axis of extrusion and which presses against the container during extrusion, the container being driven towards the ram by the movable crosspiece. A mechanism is provided for fixing the container relative to the movable crosspiece during extrusion so that auxiliary jacks, provided for moving the container independently of the crosspiece, can be used during extrusion to assist the main jack.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
274 words
An indirect extrusion press for tubes comprising: a fixed support and a fixed crosspiece; a tubular ram mounted on said fixed crosspiece and supporting a die centered on an extrusion axis; a movable crosspiece movable along said extrusion axis between said fixed support and said fixed crosspiece; a container, provided with a bore for a billet, engagable on said ram and movable between said movable crosspiece and said fixed crosspiece; a needle for piercing the billet and extrusion of the tubes, mounted on the movable crosspiece in the extrusion axis; a closing bottom of the container mounted on the movable crosspiece and comprising, with respect to the container, a cylindrical extension capable of being enclosed in the bore for ramming of the billet and having a length greater than the elongation of the billet during piercing; a main jack for the displacement of the movable crosspiece and of the container toward the ram; at least two auxiliary jacks attached to the support and connected, respectively to the movable crosspiece and to the container by the operating rods parallel to the extrusion axis; and at least one means of connecting the container with the movable crosspiece in an adjustable position, defined by a jack comprised of two displaceable elements, one with respect to the other parallel to the extrusion axis along a length greater than the elongation of the billet during piercing, control means and locking means for one of these elements with respect to the other and means for connecting one of these elements to the movable crosspiece and the other element to the container, at least one of said connecting means being detachable.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
274 words
An indirect extrusion press for tubes comprising: a fixed support and a fixed crosspiece; a tubular ram mounted on said fixed crosspiece and supporting a die centered on an extrusion axis; a movable crosspiece movable along said extrusion axis between said fixed support and said fixed crosspiece; a container, provided with a bore for a billet, engagable on said ram and movable between said movable crosspiece and said fixed crosspiece; a needle for piercing the billet and extrusion of the tubes, mounted on the movable crosspiece in the extrusion axis; a closing bottom of the container mounted on the movable crosspiece and comprising, with respect to the container, a cylindrical extension capable of being enclosed in the bore for ramming of the billet and having a length greater than the elongation of the billet during piercing; a main jack for the displacement of the movable crosspiece and of the container toward the ram; at least two auxiliary jacks attached to the support and connected, respectively to the movable crosspiece and to the container by the operating rods parallel to the extrusion axis; and at least one means of connecting the container with the movable crosspiece in an adjustable position, defined by a jack comprised of two displaceable elements, one with respect to the other parallel to the extrusion axis along a length greater than the elongation of the billet during piercing, control means and locking means for one of these elements with respect to the other and means for connecting one of these elements to the movable crosspiece and the other element to the container, at least one of said connecting means being detachable.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
98 words
An indirect extrusion press according to claim 1, wherein: the means for connecting the container with the movable crosspiece is a hydraulic jack comprising a piston connected to an operating rod of the container and being displaceable along a length greater than that of the extension of the bottom of the container on the interior of a cylindrical box, defining on both sides of the piston, two chambers having small volume whereby the piston is attached with respect to the box when the chambers are closed, the movable crosspiece being provided with connecting means detachable from the box.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
51 words
An indirect extrusion press according to claim 2, wherein: the movable crosspiece is provided with a bore in which the cylindrical box can be fitted, the latter being provided with a coupling part of a bolt mounted on the movable crosspiece and defining the means for detachable connection of the box.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
77 words
An indirect extrusion press according to claim 2, wherein: the means for connecting the container in adjustable position is a mechanical jack comprising a rod displaceable parallel to the extrusion axis being prevented from rotation, said rod being provided with a threaded part engaging a rotary screw, locked longitudinally on the movable crosspiece and adapted to rotate for regulation of the length of the rod, the container having detachable connecting means at the end of the rod.
