4 Claims.
My invention'relates toa hydraulic press system and more particularly to'hydrauli'c press systems for forming and shaping objectssuch as, for example, bacon, meat, or other material.
In theoperation of hydraulic press devices for shaping and forming bacon, meat, or other material a plurality of the press rams or pressure devices are operated in sequence to compress the bacon, meat or other material into block or angularly-shaped forms Therefore an object of my invention is the provision of a hydraulic press system which automatically causes the plurality of the press devices to be operated in sequence, in which the timing sequence'is determined by the pressure encounered by the press devices.
Another object of my invention is the provision of successively operating a plurality of I fluid press devicesin sequence and in controlling the sequence operation automatically by means of a fluid pilot device which is adapted to govern theflow of fluid to and from the fluid press devices.
Another 'ob ject of my invention is the provision of a hydraulic press system having a plurality of press devices arranged to be successively operated in sequence, in which the timing of the sequence is determined by the pressure with-.
in the system, together with the provision of operating the press devices in a forward sequence or ina reverse sequence. e I
Another object of myfinvention is the provision of operating a plurality of press devices in a forward sequence or in a reverse sequence depending upon the establishment of certain fluid circuits.
Other objects and a fuller understanding of my invention may be had by referring to the following description and claims taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing which shows a diagrammatic arrangement oi a hydraulic press system embodying the features of my invention.
With reference to the drawing, I have illustrated my invention as being applied to a lga con or meat press which is illustrated generally by the reference character In. The press is shown diagrammatically and comprises principally a suitably supported base having two sides. operatively associated with the press ID are three press work devices II, I 2 and I3 which actuate respectively press plates l4, l5 and 16. Each of the press work devices may be similarly constructed and comprises a cylinder and a piston arranged to be reciprocally actuated by a suitable mounted therein arranged to control the flow of I press plate I6 when it moves laterally and sidewards against the piece of material being formed.
While I am describing my fluid system as being particularly applicable to bacon or meat presses, it is understood that my system may be adapted to operate other types of presses requiringa sequential movement of a plurality of press devices.
The press work devices ll, l2 and iii are arrangedto be respectively controlled by control valves 20, 2| and 22. Each control valve is of similar construction and comprises a fluid housing having a spring biased reciprocal' valve fluid to and'irom opposite sides of the piston .within the cylinder of the press work devices.
and the press-work devices may be characterized as a work fluid system.
As diagrammatically illustrated-the reciprocal valves within the housings of the control valves 20, 2| and 22 are arranged to be actuated against the biasing action of springs mounted within the housings by a cam or sequence means illustrated generally by the reference character 26. The cam. or sequence means 26 comprises a suitably mounted shaft upon which are mounted a plurality of individual earns 21, 28, 29 and 30. Upon the rotation of the shaft of the sequence means 26, the cam 21, as indicated by the dashline, reciprocally actuates the valve within the housing of the control valve 20, the cam 28, as indicated by the dash-line, reciprocally operates the valve within the housing of the control valve 2|, and the cam 29, as indicated by'the dashline, reciprocally operates the valve within the housing of the control valve 22. The shaft is A similar squeezing operation is performed by the rotated by means of a fluid pilot device 34 comprising a cylinder and a piston which actuates a rack 35 to rotate a pinion 36 mounted upon the shaft. The reciprocal movement of the piston within the .pilot device 34 is controlled or governed'by an electrically operatedfluid control valve 31. An electro-magnet 38 is mounted upon one end of the control valve 31 to actuate the valve in-one direction and an electro-magnet 39 is mounted upon the other end of the control .valve 31 to actuate the control valve in the op- The electro-magnets are ar-' posite direction. ranged to be electrically energized from supply conductors 42- and 43 through a push button 4| and a pole changer 40, the latter of which is operated, as indicated by the dash-line, by
the positions shown in the drawing and that the valve 45 in the fluid pipe leading from the pump 23 is open. In the positions as shown, it is further assumed that the control valves are in position to cause the fluid pressure to constrain the pistons in the press work devices I I, I2 and I3 and the piston in the pilot device 34 to the rear. In this position, the fluid pressure within the system is at a high value because the rearward movements of the several pistons are constrained against further movement'of travel. The setting of the adjustable pressure relief valve 44 is such that under a condition of high fluid pressure within the work fluid system, the fluid is permitted to flow through the pipe 46, the pressure relief valve 44 and the pipe 41 to the central feed port of the control valve 31; after which the fluid flows out of the control valve-31 through the pipe 48 to the upper side of the piston within the pilot device 34. The fluid forces the piston in the pilot device 34 forwardly and causes the rack 35 to turn the pinion 36 and rotate the cams of the sequence means 26. As
the piston within the pilot device 34'moves 'forwardly the fluid on the forward side of the piston is exhausted out through the pipe 49- into the control valve 31, after which the exhaust fluid flows through thecornmon exhaust pipe 50 to the fluid container 24 of the pump assembly; The rotation of the shaft of the sequence means 26 causes the cam 21 to actuate the-control valve to its opposite position which permits fluid under pressure to flow from the pump 23 through the pipe 5| to the central feed port of the control valve 20, after which fluid flows through the pipe 52 to the rearward side of the piston in the press work device II. The fluid upon the rearward side of the piston in the press Work device II urges the press plate I4 downwardly for pressing the bacon or other material against the base plate of the press Ill. The downward movement of the piston in the press work device |I exhausts the fluid on the forward side of the cylinder through the pipe 53 into the control valve 20, after which the exhaust fluid flows through the pipe 54 into the common exhaust pipe 50 to the container 24 of the pump assembly. Just as soon as the control valve 20 is actuated to connect the rearward portion of tion with the fluid pump 23, the pressure within the work fluid system immediately drops to a low value. Under the condition of this low fluid pressure the adjustable pressure relief valve 44 functions to arrest the flow of the fluid through the pipes 46 and '41, in which event the movement of the piston within the pilot device 34 immediately stops and the sequence means 26 remains in the position it occupied upon the actuation of the control valve 20. The piston within the work press device II continues to move downwardly until the press plate I4 encounters the bacon or other material to be pressed. Pressure is continued to be exerted upon the bacon or other material until the pressure within the work fluid-system attains a high value sufficient to operate the adjustable pressure relief valve 44 which, permits fluid to flow through the pipes 46' and 41 and the control valve 31 into the rearward 'side ofthe piston in the pilot device .34.
The piston within the pilot device 34 is then again urged forwardly and the rack 35 turns the shaft of the sequence means 26 until the cam 38 actuates the control valve 2| to its opposite position which connects the rearward end of the press work device I2 in circuit relation with the work fluid system. The fluid now flows through the pipe 55 into the central feedport of the control valve 2|, after which the fluid flows through the pipe 56 into the rearward side of the piston in the work press device I2. The fluid entering the rearward side of the piston in the work device I2 forces the piston and the press plate I5 laterally against the side of the bacon or other material in the bacon pressr As the piston in the press work device |2 moves forwardly, the fluid on the forward side of the piston is exhausted through the pipe 51 in the control valve 2|, after which the fluid flows through the pipe 58 into the common exhaust pipe 50 to the fluid container 24 of the pumping unit. Just as soon as the control valve 2| is actuated by the cam 28 to permit fluid to flow into the rearward side of the piston of the press work device l2, the fluid pressure within the fluid work system drops to a low value which permits the pressure relief valve '44 to function and arrest the flow of the fluid through the pipes 46 and 41 and the control valve 31 to the rearward side of the pilot device 34. The arresting of the flow of the fluid through the pilot device 34 by the pressure relief valve 44 stops the rotation of the shaft of the sequence means .26 so that the shaft remains in the position it occupied when the cam 28 actuated the control valve 2| to its opposition position. The fluid continues to flow into the rearward side of the piston in the press work device I2 and constrains the press plate |5 laterally against the side of the bacon or other material in the press I0. As the press plate I5 encounters resistance, the pressure of the fluid in the work fluid system again builds up to the high value suflicient to operate the pressure relief valve 44 and again to permit the fluid to flow through pipes 46 and 41, the control valve 31 and the pipe 48 to the rearward side of the piston in the pilot device 34. The fluid in the pilot device 34 again actuates the rack 35 to rotate the pinion 36 and the shaft of the sequence means 26 until the cam 29 actuates the control valve 22 to its opposite position which perm-its fluid' to flow through the pipe 59 into the central feed port of the control valve 22,
,after which fluid flows through the pipe 66 into the cylinder of the work device I I in circuit relathe rearward side of the piston in the press workdevice l3. The fluid delivered to the rearward side of the piston in the press work device l3 immediately drops to a low value and sure. relief valve 44 again operates to arrest the flow of fluid to the pilot device 34 which means.
a,-a41,sor forces the piston and the press plate I. laterally against the side of the bacon or other material in the press l0. As the piston-within the press work device 13 moves forwardly, the fluid on the forward side of the piston' is exhausted through the only by way of example and that numerous.
pipe Si in the control valve 22, after which it flows through .exhaust pipe 62 into the common exhaust pipe 50 to the fluid container 24. Just as soon as the control valve 22 is connected to the rearward side of the piston in the press work device l3 the pressure in the work fluid system the presthat the shaft of 'the sequence device 26 remains in the same position that it occupied when 'the'cam 29 actuated the'control valve 22 to its changes in thedetails 0% construction and the combinationand arrangement of parts may be resorted'to without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
