Abstract
Apparatus for stripping articles from a press ram including a plurality of individual strippers supported in ring members surrounding the press ram. Each of the strippers is formed as a rigid member having an operating piston and a stripping piston rigidly joined together by a web section with the pistons extending parallel to and laterally spaced from one another. The operating pistons of the respective strippers are rotatably supported in bores provided in a first support ring and the operating pistons are guidably supported in radial slots at a second support ring. The two rings are rotatably moved with respect to one another by way of a piston-cylinder unit, with relative rotation of the rings effecting a forced rotation of the strippers about the operating pistons into and out of respective stripping positions adjacent the press ram. The end faces of the operating pistons are communicated with a pressure medium for forcing the stripper in an axial direction to strip articles from the press ram when the strippers are rotated to an in-use stripping position.
