Abstract: Die opening-closing means includes a servo motor and a movement conversion mechanism and is disposed between a support plate and a base stand. A movable plate is mounted on the support plate that is disposed on the base stand via a linear movement guide. In a forging cycle, die opening and closing is performed by activation of the die opening-closing means and tie bar fixing means at a rear surface side of the movable plate, and clamping force is obtained using a die clamping cylinder provided in the movable plate. When it is necessary to change over exclusive dies and change over is performed by: extending tie bar removal cylinders provided in a frame behind the movable plate so as to remove tie bars from a fixed plate; and moving a movable rail of internal rails to an open position and moving the change over carriage in along the internal rails from the outside.

Abstract: A movable platen (4) capable of advance and retraction with respect to a fixed plate is provided with a tie bar connecting device (12) for meshing a split nut (18) with the multiple groove portion (16) of a tie bar (10), and a mold clamping cylinder (20) operable with the split nut (18) serving as a reaction force point. The mold clamping cylinder (20) comprises a primary piston (22) contacting the split nut (18) and a secondary piston (24) movable relative to the primary piston (22). It is arranged that the movable platen (4) is stopped just before the position at which the movable mold contacts the fixed mold, and in this state the split nut (18) is reliably meshed with the multiple groove portion (16). Thereafter, the secondary piston (24) and primary piston (22) are moved integrally with respect to the movable platen (4) so as to effect mold contacting and mold clamping. After molding, the secondary piston (24) and the primary piston (22) are relatively moved to effect mold release.

Abstract: In a molding machine, a fixed platen which supports a fixed die is disposed on one end of a base plate. A movable platen which supports a movable die and a supporting mount which supports each one end portion of the four tie bars are mounted on slide units. The movable platen and the supporting mount are advanced so as to close the die, a tip portion of each tie bar is locked to the fixed platen by a lock mechanism, and a die clamping cylinder provided on the movable platen is actuated to generate a clamping force so as to execute molding. After that, the lock mechanism executes an unlocking operation so as to cause the movable platen and the supporting mount to retreat to a die open position. Furthermore, an attaching and detaching mechanism releases the die clamping cylinder so as to cause only the supporting mount to significantly retreat from the movable platen, and thus the four tie bars are completely evacuated from the fixed die and the movable die.

Abstract: The invention provides a molding die in which a whole or a part of an exclusive portion forming a cavity can be swiftly changed while leaving a general portion in a molding machine. A fixed insert, a movable insert, a pressing plate and a slide core which correspond to an exclusive portion can be automatically attached to and detached from a fixed main die, a movable main die, a pressing rod and a slide holder which correspond to a general portion by an attaching and detaching mechanism. Further, the fixed insert, the movable insert, the pressing plate and the slide core can be integrated in a die close state by a connection mechanism.

Abstract: The invention achieves a more effective die changing work, reduces a time required for performing die changing of work of a die, and improves an operational availability of a molding machine, in various kinds of molding dies. A die changing operation can be efficiently performed by drawing out an exclusive portion which is automatically attached to and detached from a general portion of a molding die, from the general portion by a feeding means and pressing the exclusive portion to the general portion. Further, the exclusive portion (an old insert) drawn out to a predetermined position from the general portion can be carried out to an outer side of a die casting machine by a carrying means, and another exclusive portion (a new insert) can be carried in to a predetermined position within the machine from the outer side thereof, within the machine in a die unclamp state.

Abstract: A method of forming a belt/belt sleeve having a length and teeth spaced lengthwise of the belt/belt sleeve. The method includes the steps of providing a cylindrical cloth having a sewn joint; providing a mold having an axis, a circumference, and a plurality of axially extending grooves spaced around the circumference of the mold; extending the cylindrical cloth around the mold; providing a rod; pressing the rod against the cloth at the sewn joint so as to urge the sewn joint into one of the axially extending grooves; separating the rod from the cloth; and forming at least one belt component around the cloth on the mold after the rod is separated from the cloth.

Abstract: A die casting process, and a die casting apparatus make it possible to produce high-quality cast products, which little involve gas defects, with simplified constructions, such as an electromagnetic induction coil disposed around a plunger sleeve, and a contractible container disposed movably in a plunger sleeve. With these simplified constructions, a molten metal is localized on a side of a retracted plunger chip disposed in the plunger sleeve. Accordingly, when the retracted plunger chip is advanced, only gases, contained in the plunger sleeve, can be transferred to a cavity of a mold at first, and thereafter the localized molten metal can be injected into the cavity. Thus, it is possible to effectively inhibit the molten metal from involving the gases.
