ABSTRACT:
A die handling device for lifting and moving die sets includes a pair of clamps for holding a die shoe of the die set. Each clamp includes a body with first and second parallel extensions. Each extension includes an aperture. A portion of a die shoe is positioned between the parallel extensions. An aperture is fabricated in the die shoe and once aligned with the apertures in the first and second parallel extensions, a pin is inserted through the apertures. The pin is locked in place by a snap lock. The lock includes a transverse bore through the pin with a ball partially mounted in a first end of the bore and a set screw mounted in a second end. A resilient plug or spring is positioned within the bore between the ball and set screw. A second die shoe may be held by a second pair of clamps identical to the first pair. The first pair and second pair of clamps are joined by an adjustable link that includes first and second identical members. Each member includes a plurality of apertures. The position of the two members relative to each other may be varied to vary the distance between the first and second clamps. Once the proper length of the link is attained, one or more fasteners are inserted through aligned apertures joining the two members together. The ends of the members are then secured to the clamps.
