Abstract
A forging device includes a die having an axis extending generally vertically. A work is placed in the die along the axis. First and second punches extend coaxially with the die and can interpose the work therebetween. A pressurizing section pressurizes the first and second punches toward the work generally simultaneously.
Claims14
A forging device comprising:
- a die having an axis extending generally vertically, the die receiving a work placed in the die along the axis;
- first and second punches extending coaxially with the die and being capable of interposing the work therebetween;
- and
- a pressurizing section for pressurizing the first and second punches toward the work generally simultaneously, the pressurizing section comprising a first pressurizing unit for pressurizing the first punch downward and a second pressurizing unit for pressurizing the second punch upward;
- and
- a base block for supporting the die, wherein at least a portion of the second punch extends in the base block;
- and
- wherein the first pressurizing unit moves downward when the first pressurizing unit pressurizes the first punch, and at least a portion of the second pressurizing unit moves downward together with the first pressurizing unit when the second pressurizing unit pressurizes the second punch;
- wherein the second pressurizing unit comprises a first portion extending downward from the first pressurizing unit and moving together with the first pressurizing unit, a second portion extending generally vertically in the base block and moved by the first portion when the second pressurizing unit pressurizes the second punch, a third portion positioned under the second punch, and a fourth portion extending generally horizontally to connect the third portion to the second portion so that the third portion moves together with the second portion;
- and
- wherein the second portion and the fourth portion are connected through a cam connection.

A forging device comprising:
- a die having an axis extending generally vertically, the die receiving a work placed in the die along the axis, the die laterally surrounding the work;
- first, second and third punches extending coaxially with the die and being capable of interposing the work therebetween;
- a pressurizing section for pressurizing the third punch toward the die;
- a clamp for clamping the third punch, the third punch generally extending along the first punch, the clamp and the first punch interposing the third punch therebetween when the first punch is pressurized to the work, the third punch or the first punch having an outer guide surface tapering downward, the clamp or the third punch having an inner guide surface tapering downward and corresponding to the outer guide surface, and the third punch being press-fitted into the clamp along the outer and inner guide surfaces when the first punch is pressurized to the work, or the first punch being press-fitted into the third punch along the outer and inner guide surfaces when the first punch is pressurized to the work.

- a core member interposing the work with the die;
- and
- wherein the die locks the work together with the core member when the third pressurizing unit pressurizes the third punch;
- and
- wherein the third pressurizing unit starts pressurizing the third punch before the first pressurizing unit starts pressurizing the first punch.
