Pipe to be upset is conveyed via walking beam though a series of induction heating coils and one end is heated to a maximum temperature of 2350 degrees F. Thereafter, a robot transports the pipe into a forging machine where the pipe end is upset in one or more die pockets. For those types of pipes where the pipe end temperature falls below an acceptable temperature during upsetting, the robot delivers the pipe end to an auxiliary induction heating coil and is re-heated to an acceptable forging temperature. The robot then transports the pipe back into the forging machine where the pipe end is forged to its final upset dimensions.

A device for shaping a blank into a hollow profiled element can include at least one base plate, onto which the blank that is to be shaped can be placed, at least one die core for the hollow profiled element, and at least two die halves for shaping the blank into the hollow profiled element. A method can include producing a hollow profiled element with at least one molded-on stiffening and/or functional element made from a blank. Hollow profiled elements can be produced at low cost, but at the same time ensure high reliability of a process where different hollow profiled elements are joined together by a generic device, wherein at least one form punch is provided for introducing an element structure into the planar blank that can be shaped and/or fixed into a stiffening and/or functional element.

A gripping surface is provided on an outer surface of a needle shield as incorporated into an intravenous catheter assembly. The gripping surface provides a gripping position nearer the catheter adapter, catheter and needle tip for improved balance and control of the catheter assembly during insertion of the catheter. Additionally, the gripping surfaces include a guard feature to prevent a user's unintended contact with various components of the catheter assembly whereby the contact may result in an undesirable “over the bevel” condition.

A radial press comprising a first and a second structure, each having a press yoke that form a receiving chamber for a press tool. Under the action of a drive unit, the second structure can be linearly moved by a pressing stroke relative to the first structure between an open position and a pressing end position in a working plane perpendicular to the press axis. In the open position of the radial press, a lateral feed opening is formed between the two press yokes. The drive unit is arranged offset with respect to the press axis only on the side facing away from the feed opening. A supporting drive, which is arranged on the side of the drive unit facing away from the press axis and can be continuously longitudinally adjusted in a defined manner within a supporting stroke, acts between the first structure and the second structure.

A system for crimping a prosthesis is disclosed, comprising a plurality of wheels. Each wheel has an outer circumferential surface configured to be placed in contact with the prosthesis. When in contact with the prosthesis, each wheel is configured to be rotated, thereby to apply a radially inward force on the prosthesis so as to reduce the diameter of the prosthesis. More than one set of wheels may be provided, so that the prosthesis is crimped first by one set of wheels, then by a subsequent set of wheels.

A cooling device (70) for cooling a work piece (9) that has reached a high temperature due to the implementation of a closing operation in which a bottom portion (9c) is formed by closing an end portion of the tubular work piece (9) comprises a tilting mechanism (151) which tilts the work piece (9) such that the bottom portion (9c) faces downwards and a cooling water tank (155) storing cooling water. The bottom portion (9c) of the work piece (9) tilted by the tilting mechanism (151) is submerged in cooling water stored in the cooling water tank (155).
摘要:
An apparatus for cold-forming a workpiece having a substantially round cross-section and an elongate body into a tube having a main portion with a substantially tetragonal cross-section and a reinforced end. The apparatus includes a die in which a received portion of the body of the workpiece is receivable and from which a preselected portion of the body extends, and a first punch adapted to bend the preselected portion radially outwardly to form a curled end. The apparatus also includes a second punch to form the curled end into a round reinforced end, and a die subassembly for forming the received portion of the body of the workpiece into the main portion of the tube having the substantially tetragonal cross-section and for forming the round reinforced end into the reinforced end of the tube.

A method and device are disclosed for producing tubes that are at least partially profiled on their interior and preferably on their exterior from a hollow cylindrical blank (3), using a mechanical cold forming method, wherein the end of the blank (3) that is not to be machined (3′) is fed to a clamping device (10). The blank (3) is then secured in the clamping device (10) and a mandrel (2) is subsequently inserted into the end of region (3) of the blank (3) that is to be machined. A lance (8) is guided in the mandrel so that it can be coaxially displaced in a longitudinal direction and the free end of the lance (8′) can be introduced into the clamping device (10). The tip (8′) of the lance (8) is then brought into a positive fit with the clamping device (10) in the axial direction of the blank (3) and the mandrel (2), together with the clamping device (10) and the blank (3) is guided axially through a fixed machining point (6). Radial exterior machining of the surface of the blank (3) along the section that is to be machined (3′) takes place at the machining point (6), to create the interior and exterior profiling of the blank (3). During the process, the mandrel (2) is preferably rotated about its axis in an intermittent manner.

In a heading device for elongate workpieces having a hydraulic chucking unit and an shaping ram, which is movable axially from a retracted idle position against the workpiece, the chucking unit comprises a housing having a sliding body which is hydraulically displaceable in the axial direction of the workpiece from a starting position into a clamping position (and vice versa), in which at least two chucking segments which are situated uniformly around the workpiece are inserted, which, on their side facing toward the shaping ram, press against a locking plate which is inserted into the housing and can be fixed therein, are movable radially against the workpiece by a displacement of the sliding body in its clamping position, and each receive at least one clamping jaw, which can be pressed by the chucking segment holding it radially against the workpiece for its clamping. The shaping ram carries a forming tool for upsetting the workpiece on the extension side, using which it can be pressed against the head of the workpiece protruding axially from the clamping jaws upon extension through an opening provided in the locking plate, and is moved completely out of the opening in the locking plate with its forming tool in its retracted idle position.
