  • Patent number: 11911988
    Abstract: A manually operated press comprising an actuating member coupled to a shaft, wherein an actuation of the actuating member is converted into a stroke movement of a press ram coupled to the shaft, and hence also into a change in a relative position of the press ram. The press furthermore comprises a reset mechanism for resetting the actuating member, which reset mechanism counteracts the actuation of the actuating member and causes a return movement of the press ram opposite the stroke movement. The reset mechanism comprises a spiral spring.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11801652
    Abstract: A spindle drive having a spindle, a spindle nut which is arranged on the spindle, a housing which surrounds the spindle nut, and an overload clutch which is arranged in the housing. The spindle nut and the housing are connected to one another via the overload clutch. The overload clutch is set up to disconnect the spindle nut from the housing in a torque-free manner if a defined overload torque which acts between the spindle nut and the housing is exceeded.

  • Patent number: 11465381
    Abstract: A press including a drive train having a motor and a press ram, and a housing having a first base plate, a second base plate and at least three columns arranged therebetween. The columns connect the two base plates to one another and keep them spaced apart. A first opening is arranged in the first base plate and a second opening is arranged in the second base plate. At least a part of the motor is arranged on a first side of the first base plate facing away from the columns and at least a part of the press ram is arranged on a second side of the second base plate facing away from the columns. The motor and the press ram are interconnected through the first and second openings.
