<p>A frameless high pressure press (30) includes first and second opposed plates (32, 34) that are at least partially surrounded by a wrapping structure (36). A lift device (38, 42) is positioned on one of the first and second plates (32, 34) at a location offset from the wrapping structure (36). The press (30) also includes a linkage structure (46, 48) that transfers force generated by the lift device (38, 42) to the wrapping structure (36) such that the wrapping structure (36) forces the plates (32, 34) together. The linkage structure (46, 48) includes a tensioning member (48) connected to the wrapping structure (36) and generally transversely aligned with respect to the plates (32, 34). The linkage structure (46, 48) also includes a cross member (46) that extends between the lift device (38, 42) and the tensioning mechanism (48). The length of the tensioning member (48) can be adjusted to control the level of force multiplication generated by the press (30). Also, the tensioning member (48) is pivotally connected (50) to both the wrapping structure (36) and the cross member (46) to prevent side loading of the lift device (38, 42).</p> |
