Abstract (en)

An improved mold part for pressing ceramic items comprises: a concave rigid support (2), which forms a cavity (3) open in an upward region; a plurality of open cells (4), which are formed proximate to the bottom of the cavity (3); a perforated plate (6), which can be inserted in the cavity (3) so as to rest on the surface formed by the cells (4); a membrane (7) for closing the cavity (3) in an upward region, which is made of a material of the elastically deformable type and can be fixed perimetrically to the edge (9) of the support (2); and at least one hole (8), which is formed in the support (2) and is connected to the cavity (3), for feeding an incompressible fluid so as to form a continuous cushion (10) which is interposed between the perforated plate (6) and the membrane (7) and is adapted to allow uniform distribution of the pressing loads of the ceramic items. <IMAGE>
