Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

[0017] Further advantages, features and details of the invention will become apparent from the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments and by means of the drawings; these show in:

[0018] FIG. 1 a device according to the invention in a first position;

[0019] FIG. 2 the device according to the invention of FIG. 1 in a second position.

EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENT

[0020] A device for alternately inserting a first ram 1 or a second ram 2 into a ram feeder 3 is shown in FIG. 1.

[0021] The first ram 1 and the second ram 2 are thereby arranged movably on a retaining plate 6 in a first movement direction 4.

[0022] For this, the retaining plate 6 has a first rail 15 and a second rail 16. On the rails 15, 16, a carriage 9 is movable, wherein the carriage 9 is present in a reception 10.

[0023] The first ram 1 and the second ram 2 are arranged parallel to each other on the carriage 9. The rams 1,2 are thereby arranged in the reception 10.

[0024] The first ram 1 comprises a first stripping claw head 7. The second ram 2 comprises a second stripping claw head 8. The first ram 1 has a first spring 11. The second ram 2 has a second spring 12. The reception 10 also serves as a stop for the springs 11, 12.

[0025] The springs 12, 13 are elastic springs, which are respectively arranged around the two rams. The spring 12 is arranged around the ram 1. The spring 13 is arranged around the ram 2.

[0026] The retaining plate 6 is arranged on a function plate 17. The function plate 17 in turn serves as a stop for the ram feeder 3. FIG. 1 shows how the ram feeder 3 is moved to the function plate 17. FIG. 2 shows how the ram feeder 3 is moved away from the function plate 17 in the second movement direction 5.

[0027] The ram feeder 3 is movable in a second movement direction 5, wherein the first movement direction 4 is orthogonal to the second movement direction 5.

[0028] The ram feeder 3 has a guide sleeve 13. The guide sleeve 13 thereby has a stripping claw receiving slot 14. The stripping claw receiving slot 14 serves for the automated reception of stripping claws. For this, the ram feeder 3 is moved in the second movement direction 5. A stripping claw is thereby inserted into the stripping claw receiving slot 14.

[0029] After the ram feeder 3 is moved back against the second movement direction 5 in the direction of the function plate 17, the first stripping claw head 7 or the second stripping claw head 8 moves in the guide sleeve 13. If the second stripping claw head 8 is to be used, the carriage 9 is moved in the first movement direction 4 on the rails 15, 16.

[0030] The carriage 9 comprises a drive not shown in detail, which is movable in the first movement direction 4. Further, the ram feeder 3 can be moved in the second movement direction 5 by a further drive, also not shown.
