Definitions

the invention as stated by the title of the present specification, relates to a clamp for a character die applicable to manufacturing license plates, signs or the like by stamping, the innovative features of which provide several advantages which will be described in detail below, entailing a notable improvement with respect to that already known in its field of application.
the object of the invention focuses on an articulated clamp intended for incorporating the male and female dies or moulds of the characters to be stamped for making license plates by means of pressing said plate between said dies, which has the particularity that, in addition to allowing the incorporation of the dies by means of different systems, either by press fitting, by means of adhesives or even by forming an integral part of the clamp itself, it has an improved system for attaching two portions integrating said clamp facilitating its assembly and disassembly without needing to use additional auxiliary means or tools for such operations, significantly simplifying its structural configuration and accordingly lowering the manufacturing cost.
the field of application of the present invention falls within the technical sector of graphic arts industry, particularly focusing on that dedicated to making metal or acrylic parts, such as signs, license plates and the like by means of pressure stamping, it also encompasses the industry dedicated to performing pressure stamping in general.
clamps for stamping characters intended for, as has been pointed out above, manufacturing license plates, signs or other similar elements which however, on one hand are generally manufactured such that the two portions of the clamp make up the die of the characters to be stamped itself, whereby it is necessary to have at least one clamp with each numeric sign and alphabetic character that could be needed, are known on the market and the applicant himself is the proprietor of various documents relating to it.
the attachment between the two male and female portions making up the clamp when it is articulated, since it is not always so, it tends to consist of complex mechanisms which often include additional articulating, coupling and/or fixing elements increasing the manufacturing cost of the clamp while at the same time as complicating the assembly and disassembly thereof in the handling operations for forming the plates.
the objective of the present invention is to therefore develop a new model of clamp the structural configuration of which allows improving the effectiveness and versatility of the clamp and at the same time simplifying its constitution to prevent the drawbacks of the known systems described above, it must be pointed out that, the applicant is unaware of the existence of any other clamp which, being of the specific type regarded herein and being intended for the same application, has technical, structural and constitutive features similar to those of the clamp proposed herein.
the clamp for a character die applicable to manufacturing license plates, signs or the like by stamping proposed by the present invention is configured as a notable novelty within its field of application, since the objectives pointed out above as ideal are satisfactorily achieved in light of its implementation, the characterising details distinguishing it being conveniently listed in the final claims accompanying the present specification thereof.
the clamp of the invention instead of directly incorporating or making up said die having the male and female portions of the characters already integrated in both portions of the clamp, without dismissing said possibility, preferably it does not incorporate them and said portions have internally a flat surface suitable for housing the male and female portions of said characters, which could preferably be fixed by means of adhesives.
the plates to be stamped which can be of various types, such as license plates, signs, etc. are generally made up of sheet metal.
the characters i.e., the male and female parts making up the die of the characters to be stamped, when they are independent to the clamp and are incorporated therein, can in turn be made of metal, cast iron, thermoplastic, etc., being able to be coupled to the inner surface of both portions of the clamp by means of adhesives, as has been pointed out above, or by pressure fitting, for which the existence of protrusions specially designed and located at both ends thereof in the inner faces of said both portions of the clamp for providing said fitting to said male and female parts, which will have different shapes for allowing the fixing of different models of male and female die parts to them has been envisaged.
the lower portion of the clamp has in its attachment end, a series of partitions which are alternately coupled between as many thickenings arranged on the attachment end of the upper part, there being channels in said partitions in which lugs of the thickenings acting as articulation pins fit.
the clamp can be quickly and practically assembled and disassembled into its two parts by this simple but effective manner as a result of the particular design of the mentioned channels in which the lugs fit, which channels are open to the outside but without the lugs being able to move from their place in working position.
the clamp described for a character die applicable to manufacturing license plates, signs or the like by stamping therefore has an innovative structure with structural and constitutive features unknown until now for such purpose, reasons which added to its practical use provide it with a foundation sufficient for obtaining the privilege of exclusivity sought.
the clamp (1) in question is configured from two independent portions, a lower portion (2) and another upper portion (3) intended for receiving the male and female parts of the die of the characters to be stamped (not depicted) respectively, which portions (2, 3), configured by respective considerably flat and approximately rectangular bodies, have mutual coupling means for attaching them in an articulated manner to one another by one of its ends.
Said means consist of three thickened sections (30, 31), one wider central section (30) and two narrower side sections (31), arranged on one of the ends of the upper portion (3) of the clamp, determining corresponding grooves (32) separating them, which sections are sized in width to be coupled in an intercalated manner between four partitions (20, 21) of the lower portion (2) arranged in a coinciding manner for such purpose, such that there is a central gap greater than that between said central partitions (20) and the side partitions (21) of said lower portion between the two central partitions (20), gaps where the existence of holes (22) are further contemplated.
the aforementioned thickened sections (30, 31) of the upper portion (3) have, as seen in Figures 7 and 8 , a side configuration which determines, at its outer edge, a step (33), while at the inner edge, a ramp (34) or progressive elevation; a ramp which, in the case of the thickened central section (30), has two recesses (35).
the lugs (36) is thus fitted through the mentioned entrance (24) and once taken to the blind spot (26) of the channels (23) it will be difficult for it to come out of place, being, however, a fast and easy solution to coupling.
both portions (2, 3) of the clamp (1) can incorporate the male and female parts making up the die of the characters to be stamped in an integrated manner, they preferably have a completely flat configuration of their respective inner surfaces (2a and 3a), thus facilitating the incorporation of said parts, which can be fixed on said surfaces by means of any securing system, preferably fixed by means of adhesives.
fitting elements (4) arranged on both inner surfaces (2a and 3a) of both portions (2, 3) of the clamp is contemplated, arranged in matching positions at both ends thereof, as observed in Figures 5 and 11 , showing respective plan views of the inner portion of the upper portion (3) and of the lower portion (2), respectively.
fitting elements (4) can have different shapes and sizes, such as shown in the two examples depicted in Figures 15 and 16 , to be adjusted to different models of male and female parts of the die, according to each case.
the clamp has reliefs (5) both on the outer surface (2b) of the lower portion (2) and on the outer surface (3b) of the upper portion (3), which, by forming varying designs, facilitate gripping the clamp, various positioning points (6) also being arranged in specific outer locations of the clamp for facilitating the centring and placement thereof the stamping operations.
