Abstract

Disclosed is a lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press. The hydraulic press includes a fixed crossbeam, a movable crossbeam, a column, and a return oil cylinder. By integrating a hydraulic cylinder with a through hole for the column to slide, an annular hydraulic cylinder is formed between the movable crossbeam and the column, and no hole is required to be specially provided on the movable crossbeam for mounting the hydraulic cylinder. Therefore, the rigidity, strength and bending resistance of the movable crossbeam serving as an upper crossbeam or a lower crossbeam can be effectively guaranteed, the crossbeam structure is simplified, and the manufacturing difficulty is reduced. Meanwhile, compared with the existing hydraulic press of a three-crossbeam structure, the two-crossbeam hydraulic press can greatly reduce the overall dimension and mass of the high-speed forging hydraulic press, reduce the overall height of the hydraulic press.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press, comprising:
a fixed crossbeam, for being mounted on the ground;
a movable crossbeam, positioned above or below the fixed crossbeam, wherein an upper die is mounted on the upper one of the movable crossbeam and the fixed crossbeam, a lower die is mounted on the lower one of the movable crossbeam and the fixed crossbeam, and a through hole is provided on the movable crossbeam to serve as an oil cylinder;
a column, provided between the movable crossbeam and the fixed crossbeam, wherein a first axial end of the column is fixedly connected to the fixed crossbeam, a second axial end of the column is provided with a first shoulder to form a sliding fit between a flared piston and the oil cylinder, and one end, close to the fixed crossbeam, of the through hole is provided with a sealing element, thus forming an annular closed oil chamber among the first shoulder, the through hole, the column and the sealing element; when a pressure in the annular closed oil chamber rises, hydraulic oil is able to push the movable crossbeam close to the fixed crossbeam to complete the pressing of a workpiece; and
a return oil cylinder, connected between the movable crossbeam and the fixed crossbeam for driving the movable crossbeam away from the fixed crossbeam.

2 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the movable crossbeam is located above the fixed crossbeam.

3 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the through hole is a circular through hole, and the column is a cylindrical column.

4 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing element is an annular end face formed by inward retraction of one end of the through hole close to the fixed crossbeam, and the column is in sealing fit with an inner hole of the annular end face by a sealing ring.

5 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing element is a flange, the flange is mounted on one end, close to the fixed crossbeam, of the through hole by a fastener, and the column is in sealing fit with a flange hole by a scaling ring.

6 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein two ends of the movable crossbeam each are provided with a through hole.

8 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the first axial end of the column is inserted into and in interference fit with the fixed crossbeam; the first axial end of the column is provided with a second shoulder, and a surface of the second shoulder is in contact fit with a surface of one side, close to the movable crossbeam, of the fixed crossbeam.

9 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein the first axial end of the column is provided with an external thread, and the first axial end of the column penetrates the fixing crossbeam and then is fixed by a tightening nut; the first axial end of the column is provided with a second shoulder, and a surface of the second shoulder is in contact fit with a surface of one side, close to the movable crossbeam, of the fixed crossbeam.

10 . The lightweight two crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 1 , wherein a cylinder block of the return oil cylinder is connected to the movable crossbeam, and a return plunger of the return oil cylinder is connected to the fixed crossbeam.

11 . The lightweight two-crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 2 , wherein the through hole is a circular through hole, and the column is a cylindrical column.

12 . The lightweight two-crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 2 , wherein the sealing element is an annular end face formed by inward retraction of one end of the through hole close to the fixed crossbeam, and the column is in sealing fit with an inner hole of the annular end face by a sealing ring.

13 . The lightweight two-crossbeam high-speed free forging hydraulic press according to claim 2 , wherein the sealing element is a flange, the flange is mounted on one end, close to the fixed crossbeam, of the through hole by a fastener, and the column is in sealing fit with a flange hole by a sealing ring.
