Publication number: 20070271992Abstract: For handling reasons, this invention makes it possible to construct electrically operated pressing tools as compact as possible. The pressing tool includes a hydraulic pump that acts upon a piston-cylinder unit by which locking pliers can be actuated by a roll holder with rolls. During actuation, hydraulic oil is conveyed out of an elastic hydraulic oil reservoir and into the cylinder chamber and, from there, flows back again after a pressure build-up. To save space, according to this invention the hydraulic oil reservoir is formed as a sleeve that sealingly acts as a cylinder housing of the piston-cylinder unit. An actuating valve in the piston-cylinder unit can be actuated while passing through the sleeve.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2004Publication date: November 29, 2007Inventor: Rene Amherd

Publication number: 20070251070Abstract: The pressing tool comprises a drive unit (70), a piston cylinder unit (5) with a fork-like receiver (55) and the actual clamping pincer (60). The clamping pincer (60) comprises a T-shaped mounting which is connected to a retaining bolt (54) and a retaining bolt receiver (61) with the fork-like receiver (55). A roller holder unit with a roller holder and two rollers (2) are located in the fork-like receiver (55). The fork-like receiver (55) is part of the piston cylinder unit (5). On actuation of the pressing tool, the piston-cylinder unit (5) is pulled back and by way of this the roller holder with the rollers is moved forwards relative to this towards the clamping pincer (60). The rollers (2) at the same time roll on the clamping jaws (62). The clamping is accomplished. At the same time the clamping pincer (60) is pressed together in that the clamping jaws (62) are pressed apart at the rear by the rollers (2).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2004Publication date: November 1, 2007Inventor: Rene' Amherd

Patent number: 7036806Abstract: An electrically driven press tool that is compact, reliable and cost-effective. There is a press tool in which a crimping tool is retained in a recess by a bolt. An electromotor drives a spindle, which interacts with the crimping tool, by a reducing gear. The spindle is connected to a shaft by a pressure flange. The bearing pressure, which acts on the spindle, is brought to bear on a pressure ring by a pressure flange and a pressure bearing, the ring acting directly or indirectly on a force or pressure sensor. When a predetermine set value of the crimping is reached, the sensor forwards a switching signal to the controller of the drive motor.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2002Date of Patent: May 2, 2006Assignee: Von Arx AGInventors: Rene Amherd, Paul Dummermuth

Patent number: 6848749Abstract: It is suggested to machine contaminated surfaces, in particular radioactively contaminated concrete surfaces and masonry with pneumatically actuated striking tools. It has been shown that this is an extremely low-dust machining method with which the essentially the particles are struck off in the size order of 0.2 to 2.0 mm. The method may be realized with a device (1) with which in a housing (2) several chambers are arranged over one another. Most preferred at the top a pressurized air feed chamber (10) is fed via a pressurized air connection (3). Therebelow there is located a pressurized air suction chamber (12) which comprises a suction connection (4). At the bottom there is arranged a collecting chamber in which chisel-like hammer bolts (51) are effective. The hammer bolts which are part of the striking tools (5) project out of the housing (2).Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2002Date of Patent: February 1, 2005Assignee: Sina Industrieservice GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 6662621Abstract: A pressing tool apparatus with a clamping pincer and a sensory mechanism that permits a measurement of a displacement which the piston covers with the closure procedure of the clamping pincer. With the first closure of the clamping pincer, without a pressing, there results a nominal displacement value which is realized by a displacement sensor and a ring magnet. Electronics in the housing store a measured nominal value and compares it to subsequent closure procedures with a pressing, accounting for programmable tolerance values. Pressings within a permitted range or outside the range are suitably displayed.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2000Date of Patent: December 16, 2003Assignee: Von Arx AGInventor: René Amherd
