(54) Overload protection for a finger in a press


(57) The invention relates to overload protection for a finger 2 in a press, and to a press provided with overload protection for a finger 2, which overload protection incorporates a finger holder 4, a first recess 6 in the finger 2, a second recess 8 and a spring-loaded ball 10. The finger 2 is arranged to slide in the finger holder 4 in the axial direction of the finger 2 so that the finger 2 is moved from its normal working position by a translation movement in the finger holder 4 in the axial direction of the finger 2 when the overload protection is actuated by the workpiece 1 which the finger 2 is intended to move having reached an incorrect position in the press whereby the finger 2 is subjected to a force acting in the axial direction A of the finger 2. The second recess 8 is arranged either in the finger holder 4 or in a beam in the press.
