Abstract

A press includes two components and a clamping element insertable in an axial direction, via an actuating element which is axially displaceable via an actuator, radially between a region of the first component and a region of the second component. The actuating element passes through the components and the clamping element in the axial direction. The actuating element at one end cooperates with the actuator and at the other end includes a cover element via which the actuating element is actively connected to the components. The clamping element is arranged between the cover element and the components, or between the components and a housing region of the actuator. The actuating element and/or the actuator is movable by the actuator, for insertion of the clamping element between the components, in a scope reducing an axial distance between the cover element and the housing region of the actuator.

First claim

1 . An arrangement with a press, with two components and with at least one clamping element which can be inserted in the axial direction, via an actuating element of the press which is axially displaceable via an actuator, radially between a region of the first component and a region of the second component, characterized in that the actuating element passes through both the components and also the at least one clamping element in the axial direction, wherein the actuating element at one end cooperates with the actuator and at the other end is configured with a cover element via which the actuating element is actively connected to the components, wherein the at least one clamping element is arranged between the cover element and the components or between the components and a housing region of the actuator, and wherein the actuating element and/or the actuator is movable by the actuator, for insertion of the clamping element between the components, in a scope reducing an axial distance between the cover element and the housing region of the actuator.

2 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the actuating element can be actuated hydraulically via the actuator.

3 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein an actuation travel of the actuating element and/or the actuator is limited via housing-side stops in the region of the actuator.

4 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the clamping element is a clamping sleeve which is formed so as to be at least approximately cylindrical in the region of its outer periphery and so as to be at least approximately conical in the region of its inner diameter, wherein the inner diameter of the clamping sleeve diminishes, starting from the side facing the components, in the direction of the side facing away from the components.

5 . The arrangement according to claim 4 , wherein the radially inner component in the joint region has a conical outer contour which is at least approximately adapted to the clamping sleeve, while the radially outer component in the joint region is configured with an at least approximately cylindrical inner contour.

6 . The arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein a distance between the stops for the actuating element and/or the actuator corresponds at least to the axial length of the region of the clamping element by which the clamping element can be inserted between the components by means of the actuating element and/or the actuator.

7 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the radially inner component is configured with a line via which hydraulic fluid can be conducted under pressure into the joint region between the clamping element and the radially inner component.

8 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the clamping element is configured with a line via which hydraulic fluid can be guided from the joint region between the clamping element and the radially inner component into the joint region between the clamping element and the radially outer component.

9 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein two clamping elements can be inserted between the radially inner component and the radially outer component by displacement of the actuating element and/or the actuator, starting from sides of the components facing away from each other in the axial direction of the components.

10 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein a spacer element may be arranged in the axial direction between the cover element or the housing region of the actuator and at least one of the components.

11 . The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the radially inner component is a bearing bolt of a planet wheel and the radially outer component is a planet carrier of a planetary gear mechanism.
