Abstract: A hydraulic press unit has a fixed part and a movable part. The movable part is moved relative to the fixed part by a hydraulic piston and is moved back into a starting position by a return spring. In addition, the return motion is actuatable as a function of a predetermined applied pressure by activation of a return valve. A control valve is provided which, in addition to the return valve, opens a hydraulic-medium outlet when in its open state and has a hydraulic-medium inflow side and a hydraulic-medium outflow side. In order to configure the hydraulic press unit, when the return valve opens, the control valve is acted on by the pressure of the returning hydraulic medium on the inflow and outflow sides, the pressure being lower on the inflow side due to throttling.

Abstract: A hydraulic pressing unit includes a hydraulic pump, supply and hydraulic chambers, moving and stationary parts, a restoring spring, and a return valve provided within or attached to a housing. The moving part is displaced from a starting position into a pressing position as a result of filling the hydraulic chamber with a hydraulic medium from the supply chamber by using the hydraulic pump. The return valve is automatically displaced into an open position as a result of a hydraulic pressure corresponding to the pressing position, and the restoring spring moves the moving part. A piston acts on the flow of the hydraulic medium and lowers the pressure such that the return valve is displaced into the closed position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a motor-driven hand-held pressing apparatus. In said method, once a switch has been actuated, one or more pressing jaws is/are moved from a starting position into a closed pressing position until a predefined pressing force has been reached or a given amount of time has lapsed, whereupon the pressing jaw/s is/are automatically released, e.g. using the return travel of a plunger. The releasing action can be interrupted in an intermediate position, before reaching the starting position, so as to start a subsequent pressing process from such an intermediate position.
