Development and research of the press operating mechanism, made in the form of the wedge-joint mechanism with a curving wedge for separation operations

The applicability of a wedge-joint mechanism with curving wedge in presses for the implementation metal forming separation processes was substantiated. paper states fact that graph deformation force change is closest to technological typical during separation. At same time, has lower height parts comparison traditional crank mechanisms, which provides less elastic and press dynamics. use additional ensure approximation motion proved. This makes it possible reduce energy consumption further dynamic force. mathematical models wedge, presented form two-slide link mechanism, were developed, allowing perform its structural, kinematic, analysis. Based on analysis proposed models, dependencies identified procedure calculating geometric, power parameters mechanisms developed. Comparison kinematic analyses results carried out by analytical graphic-analytical methods confirms reliability estimates, since their discrepancy not more than 2.5%. Experimental studies have confirmed adequacy models. error between calculated measured values forces slide does exceed 10%.
