Abstract

Abstract A press for treatment of material includes a high pressure chamber formed of a vertical high pressure cylinder having end closures projecting into the cylinder and a press stand with a clear opening which is somewhat greater than the length of the high pressure chamber when the end closures are fully inserted. The high pressure cylinder is mounted on a carrying device which can move it into the clear opening of the press stand with gaps between the press stand and the end closures. One of the end closures is constituted by a piston slidable in the high pressure chamber. This piston has an annular portion which is slidable in an annular space formed at the end of the high pressure cylinder. Fluid under pressure can be supplied to the space on the side of the annular projection facing away from the high pressure cylinder to move the piston into the high pressure chamber and holding it there during movement of the high pressure chamber into the press stand, whereafter such pressure fluid can be released.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 167 words
Press for treating material with a high pressure, comprising a high pressure chamber including a vertical high pressure cylinder (2) having end closures (7,8) projecting into the cylinder (2), a press stand (12) with a clear opening which is somewhat greater than the length of the high pressure chamber when the end closures (7,8) are fully inserted, which stand (12) surrounds the high pressure chamber during the pressing operation and takes up the axial forces which a pressure medium in the pressure chamber exerts on the end closures (7,8), carrying members (1, 3, 4, 5) for the pressure chamber for holding said chamber in such a position that gaps (21,22) are formed between the press stand (12) and the end closures (7,8) of the chamber when the end closures are inserted to their innermost positions in the cylinder, in which a ring (27) is connected to one end of the high pressure chamber and one of the end closures (8) comprises a piston slidable within said ring.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 167 words
Press for treating material with a high pressure, comprising a high pressure chamber including a vertical high pressure cylinder (2) having end closures (7,8) projecting into the cylinder (2), a press stand (12) with a clear opening which is somewhat greater than the length of the high pressure chamber when the end closures (7,8) are fully inserted, which stand (12) surrounds the high pressure chamber during the pressing operation and takes up the axial forces which a pressure medium in the pressure chamber exerts on the end closures (7,8), carrying members (1, 3, 4, 5) for the pressure chamber for holding said chamber in such a position that gaps (21,22) are formed between the press stand (12) and the end closures (7,8) of the chamber when the end closures are inserted to their innermost positions in the cylinder, in which a ring (27) is connected to one end of the high pressure chamber and one of the end closures (8) comprises a piston slidable within said ring.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
Press according to claim 1 having releasable means (8b, 30) for holding the piston in its innermost position.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 60 words
Press according to claim 1, having means at such end of the high pressure cylinder forming an annular space (30) around the piston, the piston having an annular enlargement (8b) slidable in said annular space, and releasable means (31) to supply pressure fluid to said annular space on the side of the enlargement facing away from the high pressure cylinder.
