ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to a frameless high pressure press. The high pressure press includes first and second opposed plates that are at least partially surrounded by a wrapping structure. A lift device is positioned on one of the first and second plates at a location offset from the wrapping structure. The press also includes a linkage structure that transfers force generated by the lift device to the wrapping structure such that the wrapping structure forces the plates together. The linkage structure includes a tensioning member connected to the wrapping structure and generally transversely aligned with respect to the plates. The linkage structure also includes a cross member that extends between the lift device and the tensioning mechanism. The length of the tensioning member can be adjusted to control the level of force multiplication generated by the press. Also, the tensioning member is pivotally connected to both the wrapping structure and the cross member to prevent side loading of the lift device.
