Latest Patents
One of Takano's latest patents is a die clamp mechanism for press machines. This mechanism includes a plunger that protrudes from the lower side of a carrier when the carrier, which has a bolster mounted on it, is separated from the bed of a press machine. The plunger plunges into the lower side of the carrier when the carrier is grounded on the bed. Additionally, a biasing member biases the plunger downward, while an engaging member engages a die with the bolster based on the axial movement of the plunger.
Another significant patent is the slide inclination correcting method and apparatus in press machinery. This invention features a slide drive mechanism located in the top area of a press machine, which drives a slide via multiple points to vertically move it up and down, thereby forming a workpiece. The method and apparatus involve measuring or computing an eccentric load for each die or die set, preparing die-based slide inclination correcting data, and pre-imparting a compensatory amount of inclination to the slide based on the predicted eccentric load.
