Patent number: 6629689Abstract: The invention is concerned with a toggle clamp construction comprising an actuator cylinder including a linearly guided piston rod. The piston rod engages a header of the construction arranged on one end or the actuator cylinder where it is connected, via an adjusting mechanism, to a clamp arm pivotally located on the header. The header is provided with at least one engaging hole; an extension is disposed an the piston rod. For selectively fixing the opening angle which is to be taken by the clamp arm after opening the clamp mechanism, a support element for a stop is detachably inserted in the engaging hole. The said stop protrudes into the path of adjustment of the extension of the piston rod, thereby determining the opening angle.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2001Date of Patent: October 7, 2003Assignee: DE-STA-CO Metallerzeugnisse GmbHInventor: Peter Schauss

Patent number: 6561556Abstract: The invention is concerned with a closure clamp, comprising a carrier element (1) provided with a bearing (2), and a clamping lever (3) pivotable thereto, wherein one end (31) thereof is connected to the bearing (2) while the second end thereof includes a handle (32). To that effect, a pivotally arranged clamping element (5) is disposed on the clamping lever (3) between the bearing (2) and the handle (32) to detachably connect a locking element (6) provided on the W side of the bearing (2) facing away from the handle, to the carrier element (1). Provision is made according to the invention that, for swivelling the clamping element (5), the same is provided, on the side facing the handle, with a hand-operated lever (7).Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2001Date of Patent: May 13, 2003Assignee: DE-STA-CO Metallerzeugnisse GmbHInventor: Rainer Fuchs

Patent number: 6349912Abstract: The invention is related to a supporting structure, especially for attachment to a robot arm and for securing tools, such as clamping, gripping and suction devices or other equipment such as valves, sensors and the like. The supporting structure is formed of not less than two shaped bars and of at least one clamping member. The clamping member conforms to the profile of the bars and is formed of at least two parts, and the shaped bars are provided with at last one undercut groove, with an adjusting strip being arranged within the said groove and being displaceable and firmly clamped therein. Provided both within the clamping member and within the adjusting strip, for insertion of an adjusting pin, are adjusting ports adapted to be placed in registry by a relative displacement of the adjusting strip and the clamping member, with the said adjusting ports being of identical diameters.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2000Date of Patent: February 26, 2002Assignee: DE-STA-CO Metallerzeugnisse GmbHInventors: Peter Schauss, Wilhelm Born-Fuchs

Patent number: 4923184Abstract: A clamping device, more particularly a toggle lever clamping device is devised for clamping workpieces and comprises an actuator cylinder (3) with a mounting head (23), said mounting head protruding from the piston rod and being provided with the control mechanism for the clamping arm (24) which is linked to said mounting head and, furthermore, two pressure medium supply lines and sensors for the final position with connecting lines. A positioning rod (5), provided with positioning elements (4), is arranged on the free end (1) of, and parallel to, the piston rod (2) and directed toward the actuator cylinder (3). The positioning path (W) of the positioning elements (4) extends within the region of the actuator cylinder (3). At least two sensors (6, 6') for the end position are located in the region of the positioning path (W).Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 1988Date of Patent: May 8, 1990Assignee: DE-STA-CO Metallerzeugnisse GmbHInventor: Peter Schauss
