Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support framework for molds intended to be used in plants for the pressure slip casting of hygienic-sanitary articles.
  • Automated plants are known for forming hygienic-sanitary articles.
  • these plants allow to realize different articles from time to time, such as sinks, shower trays, toilet boxes, toilet bowls, bidets and the like.
  • a plant having a plurality of identical molds mounted in succession and in a suspended manner, by means of suitable support frameworks, to a horizontal elongated structure.
  • the molds are movable along the structure, thanks to the fact that the frameworks are mounted sliding on guides which extend in the longitudinal development of the structure itself.
  • Each mold conforms two opposite shaped faces and all molds have the same orientation so that, following their pack compaction, in each pair of adjacent molds, the face of a mold facing to a direction cooperates with the face of the other mold turned in the opposite direction, to define said cavity.
  • the plant also provides thrust means able to keep the molds pressed with force against each other, when they are arranged in the aforementioned pack configuration.
  • the article being formed is changed.
  • the molds for sinks must be removed from the above structure and those for shower trays are mounted in their place.
  • Each framework comprises both a half-frame, to which the respective mold is coupled, and a pair of carriages, constrained to slide along said guides, fixed on top of the half-frame by means of a plurality of screws arranged vertically.
  • the half-frame and the respective mold must be separated from the carriages that remain connected to the guides.
  • EP-A-0 999 021 discloses a support framework according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the main aim of the present invention is to provide a support framework for molds intended to be used in plants for the pressure slip casting of hygienic-sanitary articles which allows to replace the respective mold faster than in the prior art.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a support framework that allows the replacement of the plant's molds without the risk of damage.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a support framework which allows the replacement of the mold with the use of labor reduced to a minimum.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a support framework for molds intended to be used in plants for the pressure slip casting of hygienic-sanitary articles which can overcome the mentioned drawbacks of the prior art in the ambit of a simple, rational, easy and effective to use as well as low cost solution.
  • reference numeral 1 is globally indicated the support framework of the invention.
  • the plant 2 is intended for forming sinks, shower trays, toilet boxes, toilet bowls, bidets or other hygienic-sanitary articles, according to the type of mold 3 used, similarly to the prior art discussed above.
  • the plant 2 comprises a horizontal base platform 4, resting on the ground, from which stand three uprights 5, 6, 7, of which a median one, aligned along the platform 4.
  • the uprights 5, 6, 7 support an upper structure 8 parallel to the platform.
  • a plurality of molds 3 are provided, which are hung in a sliding manner from the upper structure 8 by means of the framework 1 of the invention, in a raised position with respect to the platform 4.
  • the molds 3 are movable along the upper structure 8 between a working configuration, in which they are compacted in a pack (shown in Figures 1 and 2 ) and a discharge configuration, in which they are moved away.
  • Each mold 3 has a generally planar extension, is substantially quadrangular, and conforms two opposite shaped faces 9,10.
  • the molds 3 are all mounted to the structure 8 on ideal plans transversal to the length of the same and all have the same orientation, i.e. the faces 9, 10 equal to one another all point in the same direction (these directions being parallel to the length of the plant 2).
  • the plant 2 also comprises thrust means 11 able to crush and keep pressed with force the molds 3 one against the other, arranging them in said working configuration.
  • the molds 3 are arranged in the discharge configuration.
  • the molds are rotated by ninety degrees around a horizontal axis, in the manner explained below.
  • the framework 1 of the invention comprises firstly a support element 12, associable with a respective mold 3, and an attachment bracket 13 intended to be mounted in the plant 2, and preferably able to mate sliding with one or more guides 14 of the plant 2 (see also figures 2 and 3 ).
  • bracket 13 holds in suspension the rest of the framework 1 and the respective mold 3.
  • the bracket 13 comprises two sliding carriages 18, 19 joined by one or more cross members 20, 21 which are transversal to the sliding direction.
  • the carriages 18 and 19 are responsible for the sliding of the relative mold 3, along said structure 8 and allow the molds 3, with which the plant 2 is equipped, to be alternately arranged in the working or in the discharge configuration.

  • the hook means comprise at least a hook 17, fixed on the top of the mentioned element 12, to define with it a hanger means 12, 17 for hanging the mold 3 to the bracket 13.
  • the element 12 comprises an upper elongated section 32, above which two crook-shaped parallel hooks 17 are fixed and able to fasten to the bracket 13.
  • the bracket 13 can comprise two knobs 25, 26 for the attachment of the hooks 17.
  • the knobs 25, 26 can be composed of opposite axial-symmetric members, perpendicular to the sliding directions of the carriages 18, 19 and e.g. fixed to the latter under the rollers, projecting cantilevered along opposite directions.
  • the support element 12 may be longer than the bracket 13, and the hooks 17 must be spaced away from one another substantially as are the knobs 25, 26 (see in particular Figures 4 and 5 ).
  • the support element 12 is associable in a rotating manner with the relative mold 3, preferably by interposition of a frame 22 able to integrally couple to the mold 3 itself.
  • the frame 22 has an annular shape, may be quadrangular (see e.g. Figure 6 ) and may accommodate the mold 3 in an inner housing, since it is positioned substantially on the same plane of the mold 3.
  • the frame 22 may contain the mold 3, by engaging it at its perimeter edges.
  • the support element 12 has a C-shape and supports the frame 22 by means of two rotating couplings 23, 24 with horizontal axis, arranged in opposite position with respect to the frame 22.
  • This axis passes centrally with respect to the frame 22 and allows its aforementioned rotation by ninety degrees.
  • the rotating couplings 23, 24 are preferably made at the extremities of the element 12, i.e. of the ending parts of the parallel sections 30, 31 which extend transversely, downwards, from an upper section 32, to define said C.
  • the upper section 32 is the part of the support element 12 above which are fixed the hooks 17.
  • the element 3 is coplanar with the frame 22 and the respective mold 3, and its C shape defines a seat in which the frame 22 is housed.
  • the molds 3 are not arranged in the working configuration, but are moved away from each other, similarly to the discharge configuration, so that the operators have easy access to the fixing means 15, 34, 35.
  • the molds 3 can be replaced one by one or more at a time.
  • movement means can be used such as the common forklifts or even the so-called self-propelled automated shuttles 27 (like that represented in Figures 1 and 3 ), e.g. of the laser-guided type or the like.
  • fixing means 15, 34, 35 comprise screws 15, 16, these are removed.
  • the hook means 17 prevent the displacement thereof between the one and the other, so that the screws 15 of the fixing means can be removed without the risk of damaging the threads.
  • an optional device may be provided wherein the frame 22 comprises, at its perimeter edge, at least two opposite pegs 28, 29.
  • pegs 28, 29, there are two pairs of pegs 28, 29, arranged protruding in the half of the frame 22 intended to be never accommodated in said parallel sections 30, 31 of the support element 12, even during rotation.
  • These pegs 28, 29 allow the coupling between the unit 3, 12, 22 and a particular support rack 33 (see Figure 6 ), preferably mounted on said lifting members of the movement means, which comprises parallel and vertical side edges having longitudinal slots to accommodate to measure the pegs 28, 29 and to allow the rack 33 to support the unit 1, 3 by holding it vertically.
  • the proposed framework 1 may comprise at least a protrusion 34, 35, but preferably two, fixed to the bracket 13 and extending from it below, in which at least a transversal through hole 36, 37 is obtained.
