Abstract

Abstract An extrusion head for producing profiles from different compounds comprises a body having a main fixed body portion with a plane forward face and two movable body portions which are pivotally mounted on the main body portion to pivot between a closed position in which they overlie the forward face of the main body portion and an open position. A short central channel leads from a central extruder to an extrusion die mounted in front of the forward face of the main body portion while flow channels formed between the forward face of the main body portion and the movable body portions lead from two side extruders respectively to the extrusion die. The movable body portions are moved between open and closed positions by hydraulic cylinder piston units which also hold the movable body parts in closed position during the extrusion process. Hydraulically operated clamping devices on the movable body parts releasably hold the extrusion die in position.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 189 words
Extrusion head for producing profiles from different compounds, said extrusion head comprising a main body portion having a forward face and two movable body portions overlying said forward face of said main body portion, three extrusion cylinders comprising a central cylinder and two side cylinders, said three extrusion cylinders having forward ends leading into said main portion, an extrusion screw in each of said extrusion cylinders, said forward face of said main body portion lying generally in a plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of said central cylinder, an extrusion die mounted on said forward face of said main body portion in line with said central cylinder and between said movable body portions, a central channel leading from the forward end of said central cylinder to said extrusion die and two side channels formed between the forward face of said main body part and said two movable body parts respectively, said two side channels leading from the forward ends of said side cylinders respectively to said extrusion die, said movable body portions being movable to open said side channels and afford access to forward ends of said side cylinders.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 189 words
Extrusion head for producing profiles from different compounds, said extrusion head comprising a main body portion having a forward face and two movable body portions overlying said forward face of said main body portion, three extrusion cylinders comprising a central cylinder and two side cylinders, said three extrusion cylinders having forward ends leading into said main portion, an extrusion screw in each of said extrusion cylinders, said forward face of said main body portion lying generally in a plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of said central cylinder, an extrusion die mounted on said forward face of said main body portion in line with said central cylinder and between said movable body portions, a central channel leading from the forward end of said central cylinder to said extrusion die and two side channels formed between the forward face of said main body part and said two movable body parts respectively, said two side channels leading from the forward ends of said side cylinders respectively to said extrusion die, said movable body portions being movable to open said side channels and afford access to forward ends of said side cylinders.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
Extrusion head according to claim 1, in which said movable body portions are pivotally mounted on said main body portion so as to swing out away from said forward face of said main body portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 41 words
Extrusion head according to claim 2, further comprising hydraulic cylinder piston units for swinging said movable body portions about their respective pivots and for holding said movable body portions in closed position against the forward face of said main body portion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
Extrusion head according to claim 1, further comprising clamping means on said movable body portions for holding said extrusion die in position.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
Extrusion head according to claim 4, in which said clamping means is hydraulically operated.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
Extrusion head according to claim 1, in which said central channel comprises an insert between the forward end of said central cylinder and said movable body portions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
Extrusion head according to claim 2, in which said pivotally mounted movable body portions have pivot axes which are parallel to one another and lie substantially in the plane of said forward face of said main body portion.
