DEFINITION

Classification: 234/100

(under subclass 99) Device in which the turret of interposers constitutes a part of the drive train to the selected tool pairs.

(1) Note. The interposers in this subclass function as power-transmitting elements of the tool-driving train, as distinguished from other interposers which serve merely to block the "fixed" tools of the selected pairs and thus do not transmit power.

(2) Note. Fig. 19 illustrates mechanism exemplary of this subclass. The turret of interposers is adjustable to three positions, in each of which a different combination of tools is conditioned for actuation by the press ram acting through the tool-aligned interposer lugs.
