Abstract:
An open/shut valve mechanism for detecting that a piston member of a hydraulic pressure cylinder has reached an unclamp position comprises: a valve body reception hole that communicates with a unclamp hydraulic pressure operating chamber, a valve body movably received in the valve body reception hole and having an annular concave engagement portion on its external circumferential portion; a spherical body that is movably installed in a cylinder main body and that can engage with the concave engagement portion; and an engagement portion that is formed on an auxiliary rod and with which the spherical body can engage; and when hydraulic pressure is charged into the unclamp hydraulic pressure operating chamber and the piston member has reached its unclamp position, the valve body receives the hydraulic pressure, a portion of the spherical body engages to the engagement portion and the valve body changes over to the valve closed position; and, when the piston member has shifted from its unclamp position, the spherical body engages with the annular concave engagement portion without engaging to the engagement portion, so that the valve body is held in its open position.
Abstract:
An injection machine which includes a mold falling prevention device that prevents a mold fixed to a mold fixing surface from falling off from the mold fixing surface and in which are provided a bottom edge restriction member at a lower portion of said mold fixing surface so that its vertical position is variable, for implementing restriction so that the bottom edge portion of the mold does not separate from the mold fixing surface, first and second intermediate restriction members at intermediate level portions of the mold fixing surface so that their horizontal positions are variable, for respectively implementing restrictions so that a one edge portion of the mold and an other edge portion thereof in the horizontal direction do not separate from the mold fixing surface, and a vertical direction position determination mechanism that receives and stops a bottom edge surface of the mold and determines a position of the mold in the vertical direction.

Abstract:
A balancer mechanism for a rotating shaft is configured to prevent deviation of the axis of the rotating shaft. The balancer mechanism (20) has an assistance torque generation device (21) for generating an assistance torque. The assistance torque generation device (21) includes a cam member (24) fixed to the rotating shaft (4), a cam follower member (25) and a gas spring (27). The balancer mechanism has a reaction force generation device (22) provided for generating, a balancing moment on the rotating shaft that cancels out a tilting moment that tilts the rotating shaft (4) around a bearing member (9) in a direction to separate it from the assistance torque generation device (21) and which is caused by the biasing force of the gas spring (27).

Abstract:
First and second annular valve faces that approach closely or contact against first and second annular valve seats on valve cases are formed on both the upper and the lower ends of an annular valve body portion of a main valve body, an air intake chamber is defined by a piston reception hole and a piston portion, and the auxiliary changeover valve changes over the main changeover valve between its air supply position and its air discharge position by supplying compressed air to the air intake chamber or discharging air therefrom. A center side portion of the main valve body is made as a separate auxiliary valve body. The sealing of a second valve member is released by the auxiliary valve body being rapidly shifted with low pressure compressed air, and thereby the main valve body is reliably changed over.
Abstract:
A slide lock apparatus that locks the slide of a press machine includes: a flange member fixed over the exterior of a shaft member that rotates together with raising and lowering operation of the slide, and having a flange portion that is parallel to a plane orthogonal to the axis of the shaft member; an annular main member fixed to the main frame of the press machine, and having an annular member facing the flange portion with a gap between them; a plurality of reception holes formed in the annular member; a plurality of pin members installed in the plurality of reception holes so as to be shiftable therein; a plurality of actuators that are capable of driving the plurality of pin members between retracted positions in which they are not advanced toward the flange portion and advanced positions in which they are advanced to states in which they penetrate into introduction holes in the flange portion; a first locking member that is capable of locking the plurality of pin members in their retracted positions; a first drive means that is capable of rotationally driving this first locking member between a locking position and an unlocking position; a second locking member that is capable of locking the plurality of pin members in their advanced positions; and a second drive means that is capable of rotationally driving this second locking member between a locking position and an unlocking position.
Abstract:
A coupling device includes a fluid pressure cylinder fixed to the first member. The fluid pressure cylinder includes a cylinder main body, a first piston and a second piston each reciprocally movable with respect to the cylinder main body along a first direction, and a biasing member that drives each of the first piston and the second piston to one side in the first direction. The cylinder main body has a first cylinder chamber that drives the first piston to the other side in the first direction, and a second cylinder chamber that is formed to be separated from the first cylinder chamber and that drives the second piston to the other side.
Abstract:
A locking mechanism (6) of the robot arm coupling device (1) includes: a concave engagement portion (3a) on the master plate (3); convex engagement portion (4a) on the tool plate (4) for inserting into the concave engagement portion (3a); a plurality of steel balls (16) installed at an external circumferential wall portion (15) of the concave engagement portion (3a), and are capable of being changed over between locking positions and unlocking positions; and an annular fluid pressure cylinder (20) capable of changing over the positions of the plurality of steel balls (16); and a space is defined more radially inward than the plurality of steel balls (16) and the fluid pressure cylinder (20).
