Claims
- 1. A press machine having a frame, comprising:
- first and second C-shaped side frames, said side frames each having a front opening defined by a lower jaw portion and an upper jaw portion;
- a bolster mounted on said lower jaw portion of the side frames;
- a slide member provided for the upper jaw portion of the frame;
- a driving system mounted on the upper jaw portion for driving said slide member; and
- means for suppressing vibrations in said side frames without obstructing a space between said side frames, said vibration suppressing means comprising at least one reinforcing member fixedly secured to each of said side frames at at least one predetermined place so as to suppress the deformation of the front opening of side frames, said at least one reinforcing member comprising at least one substantially rectangular plate member fixedly secured to each of the side frames at a plurality of places.
- 2. A press machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least one reinforcing member comprises a plurality of plate members fixedly secured to each of the side frames at a plurality of places, said plurality of plate members together covering a majority of the surface area of one side of each of said side frames.
- 3. A press machine as claimed in claim 2, wherein each of said plate members are fixedly secured to said side frames by plug welded joints, said plug welded joints having a total area of about 5 to 6 percent of a total surface area of one side of said plate members.
- 4. A press machine as claimed in claim 2, wherein each of said plate members are fixedly secured to said side frames by bolts extending through apertures in said plate members.
- 5. A press machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least one rectangular plate member comprises a plurality of plate members.
- 6. A press machine as claimed in claim 5, wherein said plurality of plate members are laid one on top of another.
- 7. A press machine having a frame, comprising:
- first and second C-shaped side frames, said side frames each having a front opening defined by a lower jaw portion and an upper jaw portion, said first and second side frames being spaced apart;
- a bolster mounted on said lower jaw portion of the side frames;
- a slide member provided for the upper jaw portion of the frame;
- a driving system mounted on the upper jaw portion for driving said slide member; and
- means for suppressing vibrations in said side frames consisting of at least one substantially rectangular reinforcing plate member fixedly secured to each of said side frames at a plurality of places so as to suppress the deformation of the from opening of said side frames, wherein said at least one reinforcing plate member comprises a plurality of plate members fixedly secured to each of the side frames at a plurality of places, said plurality of plate members together covering a majority of the surface area of one side of each of said side frames.
- 8. A press machine having a frame, comprising:
- first and second C-shaped side frames, said side frames each having a front opening defined by a lower jaw portion and an upper jaw portion, said side frames being spaced apart;
- a bolster mounted on said lower jaw portion of the side frames;
- a slide member provided for the upper jaw portion of the frame;
- a driving system mounted on the upper jaw portion for driving said slide member; and
- a plurality of vibration suppressing members for converting vibration energy of said side frames into thermal energy, said vibration suppressing members comprising at least one substantially rectangular reinforcing plate member fixedly secured to each of said side frames so as to cover an intermediate portion of each of said side frames;
- wherein said at least one reinforcing plate member comprises a plurality of plate members fixedly secured to each of the side frames at a plurality of places, said plurality of plate members together covering a majority of the surface area of one side of each of said side frames.
