Abstract
A pressing machine includes a bottom form, onto which pressing material is laid from an operating side, and a top form which can be lowered onto the bottom form and which can be lifted off from the bottom form. There is a guide for the top form, by which guide the top form, without a substantial change in its spatial orientation, is moved, in a first stroke, out of an initial position obliquely downwards towards the operating side over the bottom form. The top form is then lowered onto the bottom form essentially at right angles, and, in a second stroke, is lifted off from the bottom form essentially at right angles and is then moved obliquely upwards away from the operating side into the initial position.
Claims8
A pressing machine, comprising:
- a stand;
- a bottom form located on the stand for receiving material to be pressed from an operating side of the pressing machine;
- a top form which is lowered onto and lifted off of the bottom form;
- and
- a guide for moving the top form, in a first stroke from a first position linearly and obliquely downwards towards the operating side to a second position above the bottom form and then in a second stroke from the second position linearly vertically downward onto the bottom form to a third position and, in a third stroke, lifting the top form linearly vertically upward off the bottom form from the third position to a fourth position above the bottom form, and then in a fourth stroke obliquely upwards away from the fourth position to the first position.
A method of pressing, comprising the steps of:
- providing a pressing machine having top and bottom forms;
- moving the top form, from a first position linearly and obliquely downwards towards an operating side of the pressing machine to a second position above the bottom form;
- lowering the top form linearly vertically downward onto the bottom form to a third position;
- lifting the top form linearly vertically upward off the bottom form to a fourth position;
- and
- moving the top form from the fourth position linearly and obliquely upwards away from the operating side to the first position.
