Abstract
Abstract A punching device for automatic punching machines for the punching of paper, cardboard and the like, comprising: impulsion means for a top shoe; such as an eccentric cam drive; a stationary bottom shoe supporting a counterpunch; a movable top shoe supporting punch knives; and a gripper bar arrangement for intermittent forwarding through the punching device of sheets to be punched wherein the impulsion means for the top shoe is located between the top shoe and a yoke which is connected with the bottom shoe through prestressed tie rods.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
A punching device for automatic punching machine for the punching of sheet material comprising: impulsion means for a top shoe; a bottom shoe and a top shoe, wherein one shoe supports punch knives and the other shoe supports a counter-punch, one shoe is stationary and the other shoe is movable to and fro normal to the plane of the counter punch by said impulse means; and a gripper bar arrangement for intermittent forwarding between said top and bottom shoes of sheets for punching, wherein the bottom shoe is stationary and the top shoe is moved, and the impulsion means for the top shoe comprise eccentric drive means located between the top shoe and a yoke which is connected with the stationary bottom shoe through prestressed tie rods and said eccentric drive means is adapted to provide a gripper movement period of up to 288° of rotation of said eccentric drive means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
151 words
A punching device for automatic punching machine for the punching of sheet material comprising: impulsion means for a top shoe; a bottom shoe and a top shoe, wherein one shoe supports punch knives and the other shoe supports a counter-punch, one shoe is stationary and the other shoe is movable to and fro normal to the plane of the counter punch by said impulse means; and a gripper bar arrangement for intermittent forwarding between said top and bottom shoes of sheets for punching, wherein the bottom shoe is stationary and the top shoe is moved, and the impulsion means for the top shoe comprise eccentric drive means located between the top shoe and a yoke which is connected with the stationary bottom shoe through prestressed tie rods and said eccentric drive means is adapted to provide a gripper movement period of up to 288° of rotation of said eccentric drive means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
66 words
A punching device according to claim 1, in which the impulsion means further comprises an upper frame portion which is connected with the yoke or is integral therewith, and a lower frame portion which is connected with the top shoe or is integral therewith, and in that the upper and lower frame portions are displaceable to and fro relative to each other by said drive means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
48 words
A punching device according to claim 2, in which the yoke is provided at its flanks with end bearing faces, and the bottom shoe has projections approximately aligned with the yoke flanks and having bearing surfaces to which the bearing faces of the yoke flanks can be secured.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
76 words
A punching device according to claim 3, in which the yoke flanks of the yoke and the projections of the bottom shoe have bores in alignment with each other and through which high-tensile tension rods can be inserted and put under such a degree of stress by means of tightening nuts that the total tensile force applied by the tie rods formed in that way is greater than the maximum pressure force during the punching operation.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A punching device according to claim 4, in which bushings are interpositioned between the end bearing faces of the yoke flanks and the bearing surfaces of the bottom shoe.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
59 words
A punching device according to claim 1, in which the eccentric drive means comprises two eccentric shafts supported by the yoke and on which are supported eccentrically by an anti-friction bearing, rollers, said rollers adapted for support against spring pressure upon a hardened bearing surface of the top shoe which lies within the punching surface of the top shoe.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
A punching device according to claim 6, in which the hardened bearing surfaces of the top shoe are formed by hardened steel plates.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
40 words
A punching device according to claim 1, in which the moving mass of the top shoe, including the masses which are raised and lowered of the impulsion means, is many times less than the stationary mass of the bottom shoe.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
11 words
A punching device according to claim 8, including wedge-shaped punching-pressure-adjusting devices.
