Abstract
A cylinder piece for use as the cylinder in a pile driving ram is provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of the guide frame. The core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and has at least two substantially cylindrical guide girdle faces for guide girdles, with the guide girdle being formed by a ring having a cylindrical bore being shrunk around a guide girdle face.
Claims22
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and is forged with at least two substantially cylindrical guide girdle faces for guide girdles, with each guide girdle being mainly formed by a ring with a cylindrical bore shrunk around a guide girdle face.
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and is forged with at least two substantially cylindrical guide girdle faces for guide girdles, with each guide girdle being divided in an axial direction and clamped around a guide girdle face by clamping means.
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and each guide girdle has a substantially square or rectangular circumference.
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of tye cylinder piece is made by forging and forged with at least one mainly cylindrical tank girdle face for supporting an annular tank, with the tank being shrunk around the tank girdle face.
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and is forged with at least one mainly cylindrical tank girdle face for supporting an annular tank, with the tank being divided in an axial direction and arranged around the tank girdle face.
A cylinder piece for the cylinder of a pile driving ram, said cylinder being provided with inlet and outlet ports and at least two guide girdles for supporting guide members adapted to cooperate with at least one guide stay of a guide frame, wherein at least the core of the cylinder piece is made by forging and, the outer diameter of each guide girdle face being larger than the outer diameter of an annular port girdle for the inlet and outlet ports and larger than that of at least one of the two ends of the cylinder piece.
In a pile driving device comprising;
- a guide frame having guide stays and a foot for receiving a pile to be driven;
- a cylinder having interconnected an upper portion and a lower portion;
- a piston slidable in said cylinder;
- guide members connected to said cylinder and engaging said guide stays;
- an impact member slidable in said cylinder;
- and a bottom ring connected to the lower portion, said bottom ring slidably receiving the impact member;
- the improvement which comprises said lower portion of said cylinder being a forged alloy steel having end portions adapted to be connected to the upper portion of said cylinder and to the bottom ring, inlet and outlet ports between said end portions, and a plurality of guide girdles for supporting said guide members.
