<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a press apparatus that can prevent a guide member and a slide member from being damaged even when a slide is inclined. <P>SOLUTION: The press apparatus includes: a first slide 40 for reciprocating an upper side upper mold 60 along a vertical direction; and guide posts 30, 30, 30, 30 for guiding the first slide 40. The first slide 40 includes: a die plate 41 to which the upper side upper mold 60 is mounted; and bearings 42, 42, 42, 42. The bearing 42 includes: an inner ring 42a having a spherically-shaped outer periphery; and an outer ring 42b having a spherically-shaped inner periphery corresponding to the outer periphery of the inner ring 42a. The inner ring 42a through which the guide post 30 penetrates, is configured to slide along a vertical direction on an outer periphery of the guide post 30. The outer ring 42b is fixed to a die plate 41 and configured to be relatively rotatable to the inner ring 42a while the inner periphery of the outer ring 42b and the outer periphery of the inner ring 42 come into contact with each other. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
