20080202190 | Modular tooling system and method - A die having various features such as spring pockets and mounting provisions for a lifter bar that can be utilized to make a variety of dies. The dies may include pockets or other mounting features that provide for mounting replaceable plates that can be machined for mounting of die forming and cutting steels and other die components. The die shoe may include an array of pockets or blind holes for mounting nitrogen springs or the like for operation of forming steels and the like. One or more openings may be drilled in the replaceable plates above the pockets selected to receive nitrogen springs, with the remaining unused pockets being covered by the replaceable plate. The replaceable plate and pre-formed spring pockets thereby permit the die to be readily adapted for a particular die. The replaceable plates may be removed, and a replacement plate may be installed as needed for a new die. | 08-28-2008 |
20100058826 | Method of manufacturing container for absorbing fluid shock or mechanical shock - Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing a container for absorbing fluid shock or mechanical shock. The method includes preparing a raw material pipe, forming a coupling pipe by reducing a diameter of at least one side of the raw material pipe, and forming an inner circumference of the coupling pipe and bending it. Accordingly, a container body and a coupling pipe coupled to at least one side of the container body are integrated together, so that an additional process for coupling the container body with the coupling pipe is not required, and thus the cost of production is reduced. | 03-11-2010 |

20140230514 | Pneumatic stamping press with high velocity slide and punch - A pneumatic press with high slide acceleration and velocity is equipped with an arrangement trigger mechanism for holding the slide, upper die, and punch in place until air pressure force in tons is exerted against slide opposite the upper die and punch. When the trigger mechanism releases the slide, upper die, and punch in a short travel the velocity is very high. This will permit the punch to enter the part material at the strain rate of the material, thus eliminating burrs, reducing fatigue initiation sites on the part material surface where the punch goes through the material. Also will permit forming parts of uniform thickness, impact powder titanium to form sheet, and stamp parts against flat sheet of polyurethane with punch having the shape of the part. | 08-21-2014 |
