Abstract
A moulding plant, notably intended for the production of electrodes, includes a hopper, at least a first mould and a second mould, two compression devices, each device including a working table and a pressing form. The plant is characterized in that there is fixed intermediate laying plane, interspaced between the compression devices, and vertical to the hopper, and there is a displacement device to position each either at a working table, or at the intermediate laying plane.
Claims5
A molding plant for production of electrodes comprising:
- a hopper means for selectively dispensing a material therefrom;
- a first mold having a side wall and a bottom wall;
- a second mold having a side wall and a bottom wall;
- a first compressing means having a working table and a pressing form, said first compressing means for compressing the material dispensed from said hopper means into said first mold with said pressing form;
- a second compressing means having a working table and a pressing form, said second compressing means for compressing the material dispensed from said hopper means into said second mold with said pressing form;
- a fixed intermediate laying plane extending between said first and second compressing means, said fixed intermediate laying plane positioned below said hopper means and extending transverse to a dispensing axis of said hopper means;
- a displacing means cooperative with said first and second molds for positioning said first mold at either said working table of said first compressing means or below said hopper means on said fixed intermediate laying plane and for positioning said second mold at either said working table at said second compressing means or below said hopper means on said fixed intermediate laying plane;
- and
- an evacuating means cooperative with said first and second molds at said hopper means for drawing and ejecting the compressed material from said first and second molds in an area directly below said hopper means at said fixed intermediate laying plane, said evacuating means for selectively detaching the side wall from the bottom wall of each of said first and second molds.
