Abstract
A table for squaring metal sheets and metal plates by means of applying controlled pressure to the edges of such sheets or plates to bring them into symmetrical alignment for further processing.
Claims20
A table for aligning the edges of stacked metal sheets or metal plates that is comprised of:
- a planar surface;
- a first wall that is rigidly affixed to a first edge of the table and protrudes above the planar surface;
- a second wall that is rigidly affixed to a second edge of the table and protrudes above the planar surface;
- wherein the second wall is orthogonal to the first wall.
1 more element
A squaring table for use in aligning the edges of stacks of metal sheets or metal plates comprised of:
- four edges;
- a top planar surface;
- a first raised wall attached to one of the edges and protruding vertically upward above the top planar surface;
- a second raised wall attached to a second edge and protruding vertically upward above the top planar surface;
- wherein the first raised wall is orthogonal to the second raised wall.
2 more elements
A table for squaring metal sheets or metal plates comprised of:
- atop planar surface;
- four edges;
- a wall connected to at least two of said edges of the table and extending vertically upward from the planar surface, and wherein such that the wall defines said wall defines a corner on the table where the wall features a first planar surface and a second planar surface that are orthogonal to each other;
- at least two pushing rams connected to the table, wherein one pushing ram is extendable toward the first planar surface of the wall and wherein a second pushing ram is extendable toward the second planar surface of the wall;
- wherein the ends of the pushing rams facing the planar surfaces of the wall are positioned above the top planar surface of the table.
