ABSTRACT:
A transfer assembly (10) for carrying workpieces (W) to subsequent forming stations in a punch press (12) is disclosed. The reciprocation of a press ram (14) actuates a plate cam (50) having a curvilinear slot (52) disposed therein to arcuately displace a rocker arm (34). The rocker arm (34) linearly drives an input rack (42) having a series of gear teeth extending therealong. The gear teeth of the input rack (42) engage and rotate an input gear (44) integrally connected to an output gear (46) having a pitch circle diameter larger than that of the input gear (44). An output rack (40) having a plurality of gear teeth extending therealong engages the output gear (46) for moving a workpiece engaging jaw (18) longitudinally of the work stations a greater distance than the input rack (42) is moved.
