MECHANISM FOR SIMULTANEOUS JOINTING OF PRESS HEATING PLATES Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: multiplaten presses for compacting of wallboards. SUBSTANCE: the mechanism uses upper (3) and lower (4) levers and journals 6 of tie 7 with compensators 8 engageable with them, brackets of upper fixed cross-piece 1 and lower movable cross-piece 2 hinge-joined to upper (3) and lower (4) levers respectively. Upper cross-piece 1 and lower cross-piece 2 are furnished with axles secured in parallel with their working surfaces; the brackets are installed on the axles for turning, the brackets of lower cross-piece 2 are Y-shaped and can turn about its longitudinal axis perpendicular to the axis of cross-piece 2. EFFECT: enhanced service life of bearings due to balancing of loads on them at shifts and misalignments of the movable cross-piece. 6 dwg
